Flashback
I played it on the SNES. It’s a sci-fi platformer that I felt shared themes with movies like Total Recall, They Live, Blade Runner, Running Man.
You start as Conrad, who has crash landed on Titan, being chased by mysterious bad guys, and with no memory of why. All you have is a gun, and a video recording of yourself telling you where to go for the next clue.
They released it in such a state that Sony removed it from their store and offered full refunds.
I don’t think people are yearning for a dystopian future.
I think all of those applications will, or already have, develop independently of something like Facebook metaverse. If anything meta is taking those useful applications and trying to turn it into a household product that nobody needs.
I’m not kidding, one time I saw that and the first result was back to that thread where the only answer was to Google it.
The quote is misquoting the analogy. It is an infinite number of monkeys.
The point of the analogy is about randomness and infinity. Any page of gibberish is equally as likely as a word perfect page of Shakespeare given equal weighting to the entry if characters. There are factors introduced with the behaviours of monkeys and placement of keys, but I don’t think that is the point of the analogy.
Gog does now have a launcher, but you can still download the offline installer files for games.
So there’s this chick named Eve…
Commandos! One of my favourites! Commandos 4 comes out soon I believe
Why wasn’t RSS as popular as the original Twitter?
I’m not sure what the answer is, but I suspect it’s the same answer.
I thought it was a great idea for official statements. Kind of like a new type of RSS feed.
Local transport companies can advertise delays, meteorology organisations can advertise natural disasters, police can post active missing person alerts, etc.
But it seems like it is just vapid narcissists thinking other people give a shit about their random thoughts.
If you start with the second one you won’t know what’s going on and feel like you’ve missed a bunch of important story.
This is how it felt after playing the first one as well. Half Life 2 is almost an unrelated game. The plots of the two barely line up.
Did emu wars teach you nothing?
Because touch screens are cheap and put the onus of design onto the programmers of apps.
It matters because you can get used games for sometimes a tenth of the price they charge on the digital store.
New tab tools.
You can even do a trick to make it your home tab
It’s so hard to complete your Pokedex these days
I plan to live forever or die trying
I get it.
The actual offer is: “Starlink users will get free internet” but it’s been put forward as: “everyone gets free Starlink”
It’s the equivalent of corporations changing their Facebook profile picture to a rainbow. It basically costs then nothing, especially if affected areas have no electricity.
They did exactly that, except they changed the name of the original subscription to “classic” and upgraded everyone to the more expensive plan without asking.
This is actually illegal in some countries, and I hope they get fined for it.
