The really good games started coming out somewhere in the late ‘90s, I think?

Many people have 1998 as the year when the most “best games of all time” came out, though 2001 and 2003 were also unbelievably stacked with all-time bangers.

Now that said, it heavily depends on the platform. For PC gaming, the peak might have been the early 90s, when we were seeing stuff like Rollercoaster Tycoon, SimCity 2000, Doom, Civilization, etc.



They started with one electric model and currently have 3, 5 if you count the Taycan variants.

So… no? Also why go off on something so easy to look up?



The new version would be: “.. …. …. ….. .”

Which is a pretty tough rhythm if you treat each space as an eighth note rest and each dot as an eighth note




So happy to hear this. It’s so nasty to me when devs lock essential features like offline playback behind a paywall.


It’s not a viable business model because of capitalism, not because of human nature.

You’re describing a form of the tragedy of the commons.


Nobody is packaging a standard init script across all distros, basically. A script is expected to be unique per machine or at least per admin setting up a set of machines. A binary could have a secret exploit installed in it that nobody can see/audit before it’s too late.

At least that’s the theory. Personally I love systemd


And if you have a retirement account with investments, kinda at all. The entire US economy is hinging on AI at this point, to a deranged degree. Almost more than oil, at this point.


Yeah, you’d think that if anyone could have cracked this it’d be them, but…


Audiobookshelf is great. For iOS I’ve got a friend with an iPhone who said that Still is feature complete and the in-app purchases are basically just an optional donation.


Meh, the Mount and Blade series are RPGs and Paradox has been publishing those successfully for decades.



Some people pronounce “Taurus” like torus, others like tarr-us


So you got like 3 episodes in and bailed?

That’s not even close to what the show is about lmao
