That’s great! I’m currently using the voyager distro, but in a bout 2 season (fall, winter) I’m going to switch to the tng distro for about 7 seasons.

Is it weird that I track time by seasons and not months or years?

Luckily they exist in smaller sizes still. I’m just getting a small tv for occasional use.

What’s your favorite Linux iso?

Is it the dragon ball z complete distro?

I’m happy to see this, my wife and I were about to buy a smart TV. Now I’ll just get the dumb variant.

That’s how it is in the Philippines.

Parking usually sucks, because it’s completely full.

I’ve even seen cars line up for a space to park at the mall.

The parking garages are usually big, but Manila is overcrowded by a significant amount.

There is an open source project that already does this a bit called box86 and box64.

I think you can find videos of people running Skyrim on arm chips like phones or maybe raspberry pi 5.

They don’t run well, but with more powerful chips and valves experience and money, I’m sure they can do it.

I thought it used the Linux kernel, I guess that changed.

 

I grew up with goldeneye and perfect dark.

I decided to play the recompiled version of this game on my steam deck.

First of all, this game had some really big environments for n64. It’s surprising how much they fit in these old games.

Secondly, after you finish the main game, there are two bonus missions where you play as another character to see their side of the story.

Modern day these are called “dlc”.

The shooting range portion of the game is either too easy or impossibly difficult. I’ll try with mouse to kind of cheese it.

My understanding is that when you complete the shooting range and combat simulator there is another unlockable mission.

Now that I am typing this I wonder if there is another unlockable level for completing on the hardest difficulty like golden eye.

Anyway, if you have or have not played this game, it’s totally worth playing the recompiled version of the game.

Works on Linux and Windows perfectly.

If you run it on the steamdeck, you can just download the Linux version, add it to Steam, then manually tell it to run with proton. I didn’t know this was possible until yesterday, but it will not run on steamdeck without proton due to missing dependencies that are included with proton.

Have fun.

 

I've been passingly interested in the Megami Tensei series for a while.

I've been a little intimidated by the number of games that may or may not have been translated and all the ports.

I was hoping someone could give me a rundown of the series and where to start, if I should play with fan translations, or whatever else I should know.

I grew up with the nes and snes, so I'm OK with older RPGs and their nuances.

 

I think my first Bethesda game was Skyrim and I love Skyrim. I’ve played through Skyrim when it first came out I played through it again in the DLC came out. I played through it again on the switch I have since played through it again on PC. I love Skyrim. I played it so many times and I know it’s a meme to keep re-releasing the game but it is just genuinely very good game.

I’ve played fallout three I tried to get into new Vegas. I played fallout four up to like level 40 just today actually and I’ve tried fallout 76. I know the gameplay is almost the same as the Skyrim game but I just can’t get into fallout and I don’t know what it is about that series . Maybe you can help me figure it out because I just don’t think this game is captivating.

It seems like there’s just less to do in the world enemies are Raiders or mutants and maybe some creatures and I guess sky rooms really the same it’s just different factions of humans but it just seems less copy and pasted than fallout does and of course Skyrim has the same dungeons, but so does fallout.

Is it just the genre of playing in a wasteland instead of a fantasy world the only real difference between the elder scrolls games in the fallout games? 

 

Resident Evil 7 I’ve had this game for a while and finally sat down to play it. The game was amazing from start to finish. It legit had scary moments in the game. There were times where my heart was pounding and I was physically stressed walking through the house. The antagonists were really cool as were the boss fights. Fighting the mom was a little annoying, but it wasn’t too bad. This game is like a 10/10.

Resident Evil 8 Right off the bat I have to say this game was more fun, but less frightening. It had a few moments in the first half of the game, but the second half became action packed. I preferred the inventory system of this game and how all the crafting material, key items, and treasures were in a separate inventory. Since ammo was abundant I found myself just rushing areas instead of sneaking through them. While I think this game is better is most regards, I give it a 9/10 as it lost some of the scary stuff that resident evil 7 had. But, if 7 didn’t exist I’d give this a 10/10.

With that being said, I’m just about to fight the final boss of 8. But I have to say that both of these games look amazing on the steam deck. It runs perfectly as well. These games have been so good, that I’ll buy resident evil 4 remake as soon as I finish 8.

 

I’d like to be able to use the iOS text recognition in images that way I can easily translate memes that are in different languages.

Other than that, just want to say thanks for the amazing app. I really do not miss Apollo at all. Memmy has come a long way so quickly.

In addition, I love the purple space icon. It’s so great!

 

My webcam does not work. I’m sure it’s a hardware issue as it persists in windows and Linux. I already reseated the camera and it still happpens.

The other issue is that it seems the keyboard randomly ignores key presses. I’m not sure what the issue is, but it’s frustrating to type on as it happens randomly and a few times ever couple hundred characters.

Can someone give me some advice on how to self repair these problems? My goal is to sell the laptop once it’s repaired.

Other than those issues, it works really great. I just want something a bit thinner.

 

I’m on the latest iOS update and using an iPhone 15.

I can respond to messages in other posts, but I can’t reply to messages that are in my inbox from the app.

I have to problem replying from my desktop.

 

I think the ammo for the beam weapons is a bit stressful. I just got them and am wondering if using an infinite ammo cheat will ruin the experience or if it will make the game more enjoyable.

Maybe I will get ammo upgrades and it won’t matter.

What is your opinion on the matter? I don’t mind being stressed if it makes the game more fun overall.

 

Mac sales are down.

I’m really not surprised. They are just a bit too expensive once you start upgrading the storage and ram.

I have been holding out on buying a Mac since the M2 was rumored to come out.

I keep hoping that the base model will have a larger amount of storage and ram, but it does not.

They keep selling faster processors, but I do not need that, I need more storage and I’d like more ram.

At this point, I’m just going to buy a used M1 air. If Apple had 512 and 26 standard on the base air, I’d pickup a new one today.

Do you disagree? What can Apple do to increase Mac sales?

 

I played this game as a kid when it released and remembered not liking it very much. I remembered almost nothing about it. I didn’t remember a single boss fight or temple, like it was really wiped from my mind.

I wanted to play through it again because people always talk about how they love this game, but I found it really lacking and annoying at times.

Having to redo things each time you resets time made the game feel more like a chore. I understand that your going back in time, but it did not make for good gameplay.

I made it to the moon, but I’m burnt out at this point and a little under powered. I did not do any of the side quests as having to redo a bunch of stuff sounds terrible. I don’t want to get 3/4th through a side quest only to have to reset time.

Before resetting, I have to deposit money, then reset, then stock up my items again, and redo all the things I need to do to get back to where I was.

I have to admit that it is really original and a cool concept, but it does not work in practice.

I still put oot and wind Waker at the top of the 3d Zelda’s. (Not counting the switch games)

At this point, I’ll boot up oot and play through that again. I vividly remember child links part of the game and a decent amount of adult link. After that, I’ll try the master quest. I remember that being difficult and I never completed it when I was a kid.
