I think I put 200 hours into Fallout 3.
It’s nowhere near as good as 2. Not even close.
GamesWhilst it’s an oversimplification, if the old price only got Y sales then a higher new price was always only going to get a subset of Y.
Console sales go up over time in part because the price goes down, broadening the customer base. Sure, the library gets bigger over time too, but that’s barely happening either.
United KingdomYeah, I use it for Marketplace and a wargaming group I admin. Its original use case for me is long gone.
Corgi@lemmy.world
I’d assume so. His mother, Becca, didn’t strike me as a lapdog.
Some lines from this are sampled in the Gorillaz song M1 A1. Got me to watch the film and I enjoyed it more than I expected.
iiiiiiitttttttttttt@programming.dev
I was asking about using CDs rather than DVDs for backups. I was there for the early days of Ubuntu, I ran the Hoary Hedgehog beta!
I guess I’ll just have to buy even fewer consoles than I already am.
I Love the 90s…well I thought it was kinda fun.
FediversePeople actually like infinite scroll?
The form factor of individual components is a little different but this is essentially what my work station looks like.
Legal NewsI’m just deleting my comment. Yes, that’s what I was trying to say. I don’t know why it deserved downvoting but I’m bored of it.
ProgrammingI’m glad someone is saying it. I’m a software engineer and someone elsewhere in this thread is giving me shit for not having much use for the low level stuff.
I was teaching a junior about character encoding a couple of months ago (I suspect his CS degree came free in a box of cereal) but most of what we do is build tooling on top of other tooling. I’m not working on bare metal here!
Bad CaptionsI should rewatch Arson Sam.
You’re in a foul mood today, aren’t you? Okay, hope tomorrow is better. I’m not arguing with you about whatever this nonsense is.
Your continuing inability to engage in an even remotely constructive way is really tragic.
Instead of seeing my response as “He takes my point and sees that his initial comment was too broad. We could have a conversation” it just ends up as an opportunity for you to make this community more hostile. That’s so sad.
Hopefully you’re just having a bad day.
We were watching the UHD of this last month and really admiring the building’s model. Really cool to see the model itself!
Respond to the point or bugger off.
Calling me out on a clarification when you’re banging on with ad hominem rubbish?
Respond to the point or bugger off. I’m not here to impress you, you’re not my dad.
Third, that sloppiness and failure to pay attention is only reinforcing my initial impression.
A good engineer knows when the details matter and when it’s just wasting everyone’s time. Would you classify responding to someone being needlessly hostile as something other than a waste of time?
If anything you should be criticising me for choosing to spaff more time on this conversation.
Hah! You picked the two of your that list that I actually do care about.
- pointers * allocation * reference vs value * recursion * stack * panics, errors, error propagation * data structures
I don’t know what pointers are. I don’t care about memory allocation. Recursion rarely comes up.
That’s not the kind of codebase I work with. I guess I’m not a proper big-boy programmer 😢
Anyway, your snide remarks about my abilities aside, that doesn’t address my point at all.
