Their https://eshop.thrustmaster.com/en_us/eswap-x2-pro-controller.html model looks good because you can swap out the dpad as well to give it the Playstation layout, but I wish I knew if their dpad was actually good. That is where nearly all third party controllers fail.

I thought of another one. There is a minigame in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 called Tiger! Tiger that is great. it is basically an arcade game where getting certain scores gives you credits that can be redeemed for upgrades for some characters. The minigame is randomized and has three different difficulty tiers and is overall really well done.

Not sure if it will count, but the Ancient Cave in Lufia 2 (SNES) was a game in and of itself. It was basically a roguelike dungeon. 100 random floors, it reverts you to level 1 and there were rare special items you could sometimes find in runs that could be brought back in. Beating the Ancient Cave is much, much harder and more rewarding than beating the game itself (storyline aside).

I use DS4 pads plugged in, but I’d love a newer model that didn’t have a battery, but had the same layout. So many of the cheaper gamepads come with terrible dpads.

I don’t use any bags anymore if i can help it. I just load them into my trunk and use a little crate with wheels and a handle on it to bring groceries inside. The crate never leaves my home, so I can’t forget it.

Yeah, DBeaver used to be unusable, but it is quite decent these days. I was really unhappy with Datagrip, so I decided to give it another try and I am glad I did.

As far as this tool goes, I don’t love the idea of having my tools in the browser, so this won’t work for me, but it is a cool project nonetheless.

Unsurprising, but still shitty. Par for the course for the company these days.

This is true, and is why I annoyingly have to keep robots.txt on my unpublished domains. Google does honor them for the most part, for now.

Lineage is fine as a DD for lots of people. The only real issues are what you mention in your other comment, which many people don’t use, like myself.

Hah, I came to mention Gaiden as I love that game. You and the article are both correct for the most part, it definitely has story elements relating to Space Jam, not to mention Ghost Dad, and other seemingly random sources, but what you describe is probably the best quick summary of the setting.

It sounds so ridiculous, and I suppose it is, but it was so well done and entertaining.

The creator was working on the sequel for years and then kinda disappeared. It is probably for the best because I can’t see it living up to the hype of the weird fans like myself (and I can’t stand backetball!).

Edit: I just realized that the new game from the article is called “Hoops: Shut up and Jam”. Hoops was the name of Barkley’s son in Gaiden lol

I’d never have even considered honey, but “hot honey” stuff has started becoming popular and it is pretty great so I bet honey on pizza works well.

Careful there, I have it on good authority that this particularly large turtle has an attitude.

I love adding black olives or banana peppers to pizza along with a meat (usually pepperoni or meatball). Banana peppers specifically give it the contrasting flavor that I think people like from adding pineapple to a pizza, but without being so pineapple.

I’m on a Debian based distro, but it is super simple. To hold a driver, or any package to a version just use “sudo aptitude hold <name or package here>” to undo this at any point just use “sudo aptitude unhold <name or package here>”. If you use the GUI package manager, there is a “Lock Version” option in a menu that does it.

If you’re on a Redhat based distro, Federa et al, I believe the keyword is “versionlock” for yum or dnf, but I would definitely recommend looking at a reference for the command before blinding following me on that one.

Four games and you decide to include Pong and it’s far superior successor Super Breakout? Moronic, there are tons of 2600 games that would have worked just as well on a watch.

I just looked in detail through their privacy policy, and it looks like if you use their “service” they are collecting quite a bit of data, certainly more than I would have expected. I only use stand alone, non-federated homeservers and I have everything disabled as far as telemetry, etc, but I think you’ve convinced me to keep an eye on the other clients. I last test drove several last year and all of them were either lacking features I needed or had issues.

Are you specifically referring to the mobile client of Element? i wasn’t away of anything with the desktop client that has anything to do with location.

I’m responding to you, but this is more for others to see since you moved to AMD.

I used Nvidia cards for many years on Linux and only recently switched back to AMD. The main issues I ran into with Nvidia were related to driver updates breaking things rather than things not working in general. So, I eventually found that holding Nvidia drivers to versions that worked without issues was the best bet and only updating them on occasion after they had been out for a bit and the consensus was that they weren’t breaking stuff.

I’m right here with you. My 4a is still barely clinging on to life and there isn’t a single phone I can move to that isn’t huge and has a headphone jack. I do not watch videos on my phone, a larger screen gives me nothing positive.

Perfect! Though we shouldn’t give Netflix and co any ideas on more classics to dredge up and ruin.
