I’ve found that it destroys my hyperfocus periods, which is the only time I’m actually able to be productive, so I stopped doing it.

I don’t know how people get anything done with constant interruptions. My brain does that enough already.

Is + when they stop counting versions and just use a SaaS model?

It’s way easier to move from one Linux distro to another if Valve starts enshittifying SteamOS (which would really suck) than it is to move from Windows to Linux. Either way this is a good stepping stone that’s well supported.

I don’t think Factorio ever goes on sale but imo it’s worth full price.

If you like Satisfactory, there’s an extremely high chance you’ll like Factorio. The main differences are the obvious 2D top-down vs 3D 1st person and Factorio has a robust military/combat system with base defense while Satisfactory is mostly peaceful unless you’re exploring.

Factorio.

Everything—the gameplay, the music, the art style—feels like I hand selected it. There’s not a single decision the devs made that I wouldn’t have made too.

India’s progress owes much to community health workers, particularly women, who have been instrumental in reaching remote populations. Their culturally sensitive approach ensures female patients overcome social barriers to access healthcare.

Insecticide-treated mosquito nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) have been key tools in malaria prevention. In 2023, India distributed over 1.1 million ITNs to reduce malaria cases.

It’s awesome to see such a significant reduction. Looks like it took a combination of mass preventive measures and better access to healthcare for sick people to make such a big impact.

Read the latest reviews and you’ll hear differently.

This latest generation of ARC GPUs is very promising. I’m really glad there’s finally some good budget gaming GPUs out there. Intel has really committed to this product line, and I really hope it continues to pay off.

The price/performance is fantastic, the power efficiency is decent, and the feature set is way beyond expectations–almost caught up with Nvidia on their second attempt. The rate of improvement is impressive.

I have some friends still on GTX 10 series cards that would love this upgrade. That being said, personally, there’s no reason for me to switch yet. As soon as Intel has something that can beat an RTX 3080Ti via higher tiers or next gen, I’ll gladly ditch Nvidia.

The two AC games where people complained the story was too long and monotonous? Great idea.

Oh, benevolent Nintendo has graced us with the ability to play some more classic ROMS as long as we stay subscribed to their shitty online service.

Hopefully this means they’re working on the game? A Black Flag remaster is probably the only thing that would get me to play Assassin’s Creed again.

Think Different Freely.

When you install Windows, you don’t really control your computer. Microsoft does.

Just started Celeste. It’s hard because I suck at platformers but I love the music + art so much.

Also, if you’re making something similar to Smash Bros, remember to keep the movesets/combos relatively simple. Too many complicated combos will make it harder to pick up and will be harder to balance.

Potential names:

• FOSS Fighters
• Open Tournament
• Libre Brawl (Or some combination of these)

I think is best to start with common archetypes (think DnD classes) and make movesets that feel right within those stereotypes. That should make a good starting point and you can tweak from there.
