Oh man, this is a dream come true.

2 was such a blast I probably rented the game from my local movie rental chain enough to actually buy the game.

Especially hot after the newest Ninja Gaiden 2 release. It’s almost a lost art having games with such a pure focus on action. It’s like a Michael Bay movie, you’re not watching/playing for the story, you’re playing for the adrenaline rush.

I got a two player paper and pencil space RPG recently, I’ll have to give this a spin during me and my partner’s play session!

It’s ok friend. Nothing wrong with it, it’s our version of an older person holding on to a newspaper article about their loved one.

Thank goodness we knew them

I’ve got two friends that can’t log in anymore. I feel your pain. It sucks a lot for sure. I enjoyed the article, thank you for posting.

One thing I wished they would have explored a little more was the psychological effects these memorial pages have on those left behind. Part of what helped me fully grieve and accept the loss was to eventually stop going to the pages. I guess in some way a false hope kinda starts taking root, at least it was that way for me

It seems very basic and to the point.

I fucking love it. So much bloat on modern web this is like a dream

I don’t necessarily think it’s too late. There will be a niche that someone/some entity will settle into for us privacy minded folk. Hopefully that niche gets beefy processors and extra ram fr fr

I like decent sampler a lot I just wish it was open sourced. If your cool with non FOSS software it is pretty dope. Good Kontakt competitor

So Microsoft is one of the most valuable companies in the entire world. They have a stranglehold on corporate America, power a huge the cloud infrastructure, hold one of the largest sources of telemetry/user data, and are the defacto standard of PC environments worldwide.

Why in the fuck do they need to pivot to ads? I’m genuinely curious. Even if they lost 50% of their entire business they would still be one of the most profitable companies in the world.

There is so much music now, once I found out an artist doesn’t align with my values it’s easy to drop them.

Can’t wait to get it onsale on Steam! I already paid full price on Switch so they ain’t getting extra lol

Yes! Yes you can! Vectoring synthesis voices is also cool!

This is the way. But milk teas and boba tea is pretty good for a tea mix drink.

Several modular synth modules use joysticks for control over parameters, but one of the coolest I’ve seen is one from Delptronics that uses a wii nunchuck controller to send out control voltage. Hagiwo I believe also has a similar DIY design.

Holy smokes! I was an avid TikTok person for music before they enshittified it with ads and the shop features. Can’t wait for Loops!

Not surprising. Proton seems to be exploiting the niche of “privacy” . I haven’t seen anything to the contrary other than turning over metadata due to court order.

Thank you so much for sharing this. I literally cannot stand the modern net. I’ve made it a point to curate personal websites. Found a bunch of cool ones on the lainchan web ring. Will check out Gemini

Holy smokes that’s fucking wild. Reading that article sucked. I’m really happy for the indie passion projects that aren’t affected by this industry downturn as much.

AA games needs to come back, all these AAA and “AAAA” games are just ballooning costs and now the bubble has bursted.

The only one I’ve played is Metal Slug 4 , which is pretty fun. Any bangers y’all recommend?

I feel like it was best when it came out, but the single player was fun atleast. I get that it wasn’t your vibe tho, one of those “best at high level play” games

Considering Sega is most likely live servicing their Jet Set games, a sequel is a much better outcome. That said I’d like to check out anything they do seeing as it’s a good developer
