Something important to remember is how many great franchises or games were originally made by a very small (or "indie") team. Zelda, Tetris, Mario, Minecraft, Sonic, Civ, and others. Each eventually either grew massively or were bought out by a bigger corporation later. Indie games may not be our savior, but so many mainstream games started out small. It seems to me that the smaller the team, the bigger the innovation.
Somebody is gonna try to fact check me on this, so I'll just say my point is you can't have a healthy gaming industry without a healthy indie industry too, IMHO.
Stardew is on Play Pass. If you start a free trial, you could test the game's performance.
Isn't NMS already a kind of harvesting and crafting Minecraft simulator in space? Or is it the blocks?
The visual novelty of Android versions seems to have died out a long time ago. You may get the new features, but there won't be anything new to look at.
It's a big ask. HeliBoard and FUTO are actively in development so improvements will come. They're also the best we have as far as privacy or open source alternatives go. They'll either grow to fill the need for a perfect alternative or another project will, but not yet.
I'm not exactly sure who is behind all the Fossify apps but I'm impressed with their momentum.
I didn't know SSDs contained batteries. Lol
I'm intrigued. And although I read the article, I'm not entirely sure who or what this is for. It's cool, but... what?
The general attitude that "British English is correct" and Americans are wrong, is one of the most absurd things I've ever experienced. English is inconsistent enough as it is, so don't claim your inconsistency of spelling and pronunciation is somehow superior. Believe it or not, withing linguistics you don't make the rules.
Kagi! You can block websites so they don't show up. It'll also flag websites that contain a lot of spam or ads.
I've had a consistently unbiased experience with Tangle: https://www.readtangle.com/about/
Wellll I don't entirely agree. Ever been to IKEA and had a cart full of furniture? It takes every bit of strength my strong body can manage to take a turn without sliding out of control sideways and knocking over five display units and three children. The non-turning back wheels make turns more manageable. Carts should work like cars, front wheels turn, back wheels don't. I submit this comment as sacrifice.
I did this in Sekiro after I got frustrated with the Owl guy. Got a mod to make it easier, and happily enjoyed the rest of the game. I don't feel bad. I know it's not the recommended experience, but I wouldn't have finished it otherwise.
I'm clearly out of touch with the world. Over half of these got an audible groan out of me when I watched the trailers.
Strictly from a viewer's perspective, I use a YouTube client alternative (like GrayJay, Freetube, NewPipe) and subscribe only to the channels I want to see content from. Then I can look at video suggestions for given videos to see relevant content. This entirely removes me from the algorithm as well as any personalization that would put me in an echo chamber. I also branch out to reliable and unbiased news sources, better search engine alternatives, and so on.
Lord of the Rings (movies) came out this century. Let's give credit where credit is due.
I'm both surprised and not surprised. Considering I've purchased the game three times, maybe I shouldn't be.
I wonder what the ratio is between men who want to become filmmakers and women who want to become filmmakers, and if it's actually 50/50.
Audiences want good movies, and often don't care who writes or directs them. It'd be a mistake to say the reason for the low percentage "is because sexism" on such a multifaceted situation. A quick web search says only about 15% of all filmmakers are women, so this statistic sounds about right. Either not enough women are interested, or not enough get the opportunity.
