Super Mario 64 - a launch title, iirc? - murdered my control stick. Spinning that around to swing Bowser was a great game design idea, but yeah they didn’t build those controllers to withstand it for long.

… what? Fucking hell these free fan projects are out of control. This looks awesome.
Guerrillas
It’s either:
Figure I’ll wait for the re-remake. realRiven will be fun for a while, and the Masterpiece edition will add some nice quality of life improvements, but the real champ will be Riven (2032).

I don’t get NixOS
It’s not for everyone. The idea is to have your entire system reproducible with a few configuration files, which you’d then ideally store in a VCS like git.
I haven’t messed with it, but there is something appealing about the ability to reboot to an older snapshot of the system if an update breaks something, or being able to use a config file to restore your system to the exact OS version and exact versions of whatever apps you use.

This has become a common strategy for large businesses to cull their employees - “return to office”, relocating HQ; it’s done in hopes most of those employees opt to quit so the business doesn’t have to fire them / give them a severance or whatever.
Sounds like in this case the bluff was called.
Probably wondering why their date is taking a picture of the charcuterie board.
Which other Sim games are you eyeballing? I’ve been craving a good non-EA Sims game.
The emperor is back, somehow!.. again!
Pretty sure he says (and the article quotes him)
“I want to wish you all a happy Father’s Day, but please, please, please wear a helmet. If I didn’t, honestly, I wouldn’t be here now.”
Holy nuts that bruise is a beaut! https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/1536/cpsprodpb/1a06/live/a42086d0-2b5e-11ef-bdc5-41d7421c2adf.png.webp
The marketing spin calling LLMs “Artificial Intelligence” doesn’t help.
lol genuinely misread you there, however if you read the rest of the comment that typo makes no difference. I’ll correct it
people haven’t stored music locally for a decade or longer
This is incorrect. Yeah, digital sales have greatly outpaced physical, but more people are discovering how little control they have over “their” music library.
The alternative to “building a library” is to stick with services that will constantly increase in price & decrease in quality. You have no control over whether your favorite band(s) are available, and no recourse if their catalog disappears for whatever reason. You will be forced to scroll through “suggested content” (ads) regardless of your subscription, and the musicians see depressingly little of the money they make for the service.
“Building a library” can be as simple as buying an album based on a song you enjoyed on the radio. There’s no “lock-in”, there’s no always-increasing monthly bill, and there’s no chance of the store saying “uh you can’t listen to that anymore”. It’s dead simple, but certainly not as flexible as streaming.
Side note - I’m absolutely the type of person who would take the time and “re-build” my library, but I acknowledge I’m in a small minority of people, there. I also love shuffling through playlists which is impossible to do with physical media. Until I find a magic answer I’m right here with the rest of you with a streaming service.
She’s such a badass I almost feel sorry for the cancer. “Preventative” sounds like they caught it before it spread too much; here’s hoping to a speedy recovery 🤞
