I feel like it’s more a problem with modern optimization for space. Back in my day you could have a whole 3D game in 96kb.

Joking aside, that makes sense now why itch.io seems to have so many 90s era graphics 3D games.

The last time I came across a fingerprinting website I wasn’t able to make any noticiable dent in its ability to fingerprint me. I’m running like 6 different addons and they don’t seem to have any affect on this site. I’ve not really been able to find projects that are successful against fingerprinting.

This website has a bunch of hows after every statement but just scrolling to the bottom without digging doesn’t give a clear answer how to fix the issue.

Also why is a browser giving up specific details about my system? Like my specific CPU and GPU shouldn’t need to be shareable. Is there an addon that spits out random information for every request? I used to take the time to find the most common Useragent string and set mine to that, but with browsers just giving up such details it seems worthless effort.

I remember this was one of the first prerelease videos of the game where the game disappointed me. HL2 was good, but there are elements in this video that the game didn’t live up to.

The last video that crushed my hype was only a couple years later with Spore. After spore was released I’ve never cared for prerelease videos for video games.

I heard Samuel L Jackson saying it in my head.

The vast majority do not use oil. They use natural gas or coal.

I don’t think data centers tend to run off of oil.

I feel like there has got to be a better qualifier than straight, white and healthy. Like damn if a gay black person with diabetes tries going to weddings, every one of them must turn into a shitshow.

Honestly would’ve fit perfectly in that movie, but the verification can doesn’t have electrolytes.

If it’s one of the Inland Microcenter branded ones, I believe I’ve seen tests run on those and they have really short lifespans, just a handful of years. So just use it for file transfers and not for any long term storage.

The RAM suppliers would probably be thrilled to end those consumer contracts, they could allocate more to high paying AI.

I believe that happened before the source code leak. All of the game item parameters were stored in a 10mb JSON file and they were loaded by a single threaded parser, the random guy patched it.

I don’t know exactly what AC EVO was planning, but it seems like racing games don’t try to make fun career modes anymore.

Unless DeSantis did it in 2024, Ted Cruz was the booger eater in 2016.

That’s an interesting point, I’m kind of surprised if docker images don’t have any measures to prevent malicious takeovers.

I can’t tell if this was drawn to feel like it belongs in the late 2000s or if this comic is nearly 20 years old.

The steam deck has unfortunately sold a tiny fraction of the sales of the consoles listed in the image. I can’t find any exact numbers but the steam deck has sold between 4 to 6 million units.

Usually they don’t have more money than they know what to do with, what money have have gets funnelled into their addiction, the rest becomes debt.

Is DSL not available in rural areas? That still uses the phone line and should be significantly faster. I don’t understand how people can still even use dial up, can a 56k modem load most websites in a reasonable time frame? I should try throttling my connection and seeing if it’s viable.

Damn, RPGs peaked in the 80s for you. What did these games do right that nothing has done better since?

Out of curiosity, what are some games that you consider contenders for greatest RPG?
