I did and I feel quite happy about it. Here’s hoping there is more web engines out there 👍

Well tbf I’m seeing the introdução hashtag trending on Mastodon (on my server it is second)
unions have layers
I hadn’t heard about Molyneux in a hot minute, and now I’m quite glad I’ve lived in a bubble away from that man’s crap.
NGL I was quite sold on the daytime building the town up, nighttime prevent it from being destroyed,
But then it went into customising clothes, food, houses, etc and it just lost me. I don’t care about that. I don’t want to micro-manage each aspect of my citizens down to the individual clothes/ingredient/brick etc.
I never understood why Molyneux is so big on the idea of customisation - it seems to get in the way of the games grander vision…
YEEESSSSS!!! Man I love this game!!
Ah man! What a great choice!
It looks like the studio was behind Ghost of Tsushima, so here’s hoping further down the PS5’s lifecycle we get a sequel!
Nice choice! Would you like them to start afresh or would you like them to continue on from a specific game?
I’ve heard a fair bit about this game, but never really played it. I may try to get a copy for my Steam Deck. Which one would you recommend for a first timer?
There was a time where Elon Musk (EM) was pretty much a nerd darling. The real life Tony Stark.
I don’t know where you are, but in the UK the positive image dropped quite quickly once he called a British cave diver a pedophile over the remarks said cave diver (Vernon Unsworth) said that EM offering his small submarine to help the Thai cave boys was a “PR stunt” and also to “stick his submarine where it hurts” (link). Admittedly the latter was harsh words, but to then go ahead and call a British person in Thailand a pedophile (obviously referencing Gary Glitter) was incredibly childish, petty, and virtually made a lot of Brits distrust EM as well as see him for who he really was from the online tantrum.
I do feel sorry for those who have been suckered into thinking EM isn’t some narcissistic arsehole, although the number is dwindling (a personal highlight was when he got booed after Dave Chappelle introduced him to his audience in San Fransisco)
Nice, at least the UK is *attempting* to counter the online misogynistic content by Tate and co.
I tried this on my Steam deck, and the launcher that opens the specific game (DOOM, DOOM 2, etc) was so pitifully sluggish.
I think it was struggling to load the screenshot or to stop playing a demo video to move onto showing a screenshot.
Absolutely abysmall performance for something so unbelievably simple by a large studio.
I completely forgot about Whiskey. Managed to get GTA V running at 120FPS on it, which was (and still is, IMHO) absolutely mindblowing.
Truth be told, it’s a little bit more complicated than that.
PC Gaming has had tons of DRM examples - from SecuROM (anyone remember those times?) to modern day Denuvo DRM.
So there are a few unpopular DRMs out there:
Steam has managed to use account based DRM while avoiding the trappings of pretty much all of the above (for some games you can enter a CD key, and that game is permanently attached to your account, which is great if you lose the disc, but sucks if you want to sell the physical game on afterwards), while the competition used any of the above (some used multiple layers of DRM, which is eurgh).
Then on top of that, hats off to Valve - they do tend to listen to their customers and give them what they want, even if the whole point is to keep them tied to using Steam and strangle out the competition:
Compare that to Origin, Epic Store, GOG etc. They just cannot compete with what Valve offers in terms of features on top of features.
What bothers me about Valve is that
And this is the stuff I can think of at the top of my head. I was going to say it also concerns me they don’t have a bug bounty program, but it turns out now they do.
On Intel Macs, it is fairly trivial.
On the modern ARM based Macs (the M1/2/3/X processors), it isn’t an option. The only real solution is to use desktop virtualisation software like Parallels to install Windows (ARM based) and try to get Steam going. There are cheaper alternatives to Parallels, but they are often a faff.
Huh. Thank you very much for clearing that up - I don’t really watch LTT anymore (not really for a long time, even before the whole i n c i d e n t) so it’s great to have some perspective.
Shame, really.

He may have done a video about them, but that’s about it.
Also from my experience the users on BlueSky are pretty much a straight swap from Twitter. And by that I mean nobody ever bothers interacting with me at all.
On mastodon if I so much as rip a fart on there, *someone* will engage with it. On BlueSky? Nada.
