Same lol. It's like whenever a company tries to come out with a new, cool looking record player or cassette deck. None of them are particularly good, compared to the older ones, but it's nice to get that recognition, yknow?
They're running a beta test to the general public - only the thing they're testing is a 2 ton ball of metal and explosive material regularly traveling at 45 mph (70 kmh). They even have the gall to charge for the ability to beta test it. I really hope this gets regulated at some point, otherwise this is just the beginning
I said that they were gonna do this as a joke to a friend in Baltimore, because we all thought this would be so ridiculous. Leave it to reality to be the bigger comedian.
Seriously though, you can see the smoke. If you put a mask on, you can taste and feel that there's less shit going into your lungs. How do they come up with this
Yeah, this is the one where I most feel like an out of touch boomer because I know people love the newer games. Honestly, like you say, the shift to 3d was such a massive turn off to me, it just doesn't look right
Been playing a LOT of Victoria 3. It's wild to know exactly what people dislike about a game, feel the game has severe shortcomings... and yet still obsessively play it.
This pack is heavily focused on a vanilla or a near-vanilla experience, and, ideally, you will not notice it being modded. To that end, I recommend skipping the entire Overhaul section of the guide.
Tale of Two Wastelands combines Fallout 3 and New Vegas into one continuous experience. This guide improves compatibility and stability, so it's a good starting point.
You're joking but currently a discord I'm in has a cult over a specific Garfield Minus Garfield comic, a cult that got genuinely rowdy when the comic stopped being posted.
Ooo this is a good question. There was a similar thread about Lemmy as a whole, but Beehaw has a bit different standards...
Honestly, maybe a retro technology community? Set to include both retro gaming and other aspects like retro computing and the like. I'm sure one could use the current tech community for this, but I think setting aside a retro version could be beneficial
Same reason I stopped using Tildes lol. I liked many of the things Tildes brought to the table... but ultimately, it didn't really offer anything different from Reddit
If anything, emulating Nintendo games has furthered innovation. The PC port for Mario 64, any Pokemon romhack, etc, all can only exist because of emulation
Want to read some Malatesta, a book about ID Software, and This is How You Lose the Time War, but my nature makes this difficult. I always think like "Wow I want to read" and then will continue sitting on some game or website instead lol

Geez, I thought they were never gonna get charged. Way too easy to just get away with these things in the crypto space
What a complete clown. Does he really not grok that no one on Reddit trusts him?
I've heard! ID fascinates me on the whole so I imagine it's great, thanks for the motivation!

Many A True Nerd, Mikeburnfire... does Jerma count? I'll add him
So agree on this, I love some of the mods people have done like the USB-C one
Yeah, this is the one where I most feel like an out of touch boomer because I know people love the newer games. Honestly, like you say, the shift to 3d was such a massive turn off to me, it just doesn't look right
I use an iPod and physical media for most of my music
I know exactly what you mean. Got into Atari 2600 games a year ago, and it feels like an entirely different universe compared to modern games

Absolutely! My favorite general purpose New Vegas modpack is Viva New Vegas: https://vivanewvegas.moddinglinked.com/

This team also has a good Tale of Two Wastelands guide if/when you get bored of the Mojave: https://thebestoftimes.moddinglinked.com/
Tale of Two Wastelands combines Fallout 3 and New Vegas into one continuous experience. This guide improves compatibility and stability, so it's a good starting point.
There's also my personal mod... https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/78329
But I have to warn, it's not really a beginner's mod, and is purely for fun
You're joking but currently a discord I'm in has a cult over a specific Garfield Minus Garfield comic, a cult that got genuinely rowdy when the comic stopped being posted.
All I'm saying, Garfield is probably an elder god

Too long...

I don't need a laptop for my work but christ does framework make me want one lol
