As much as I lean to hate this despite it not even affecting me as a Linux user…
I’m going to structure this as a Q&A with myself now, based on comments online
What is that? “I’m going to pretend to ask questions that I’ll then answer myself the way I think it’ll outrage that most people do I’ll get a lot of clicks on this shitty article”? What crappy excuse for content creation is this? I hate it.
I want to get off Mr. Bones’ Wild Ride
Their dumb cope cages
Our glorious reinforced anti-drone turret protection
Like, I know I’m being cynical, but seriously… what makes this better than the Russian cages that are usually ridiculed?
Yeah, but it’s a lot harder to cross. Like, I could build a shitty boat from wood myself. A spaceship? Not so much. Especially not if it’s actually supposed to leave this gravity well.
Whereas Skyrim feels like there are a lot more playstyles available. Stealth archery feels very different to covert shooting, which feels very different to furtive bow handling, which feels very different to being a stealth archer which feels very different to using an arrow silently, which feels very different to using a huge, two-handed bow quietly. They’re not just visually different; how you approach and navigate combat encounters will be significantly different depending on what kind of build you have. It just feels like there’s so much more gameplay depth.
windows is still a effecient os, it’s just a lot of bloat
I like that contradiction.
which can be disabled
Pretty sure it can’t, especially not “officially” by the device manufacturer and certainly not in a way that keeps those debloat settings in place over the next few large updates.
the writing is bad
I really disagree. As I said, it’s not a smart movie, but the world building was well done, characters acted in consistency with their knowledge and motivation and you had proper worlds building from the first movie onwards. Dialogues were cheesy, but certainly not as bad as it was in the prequels. It’s a fairytale with knights and princesses, so I wouldn’t expect or want deep, philosophical writing… It’s not blade runner. But it fits the setting.
the acting is bad
Sorry, but I just really disagree. It wasn’t stellar, but I really cannot remember a single scene where the acting put me off.
Still better than using file names.
It surely is going to help “marketing” with “numbers”.
Nah. The first one is actually good. It’s not a bunch of smart movies, absolutely not… It’s a monomyth, but it’s well executed all around.
The prequels then removed decent dialogue from the formula but kept a proper story and the terrific world building.
The Disney trilogy lacked all of those as well and was reduced to terrible dialogue, terrible story and no world building at all, so all that was left were great visuals (which had lost much of their magic by then) and a decent soundtrack (which, however, had to bank on only nostalgia as the movies just didn’t know where they were heading).
So, no, I really don’t think the movies are all the same. Far from it.
It is. And yet, it just harvests upvotes. I don’t get it.
Liked your comment so much I just did it there.
Oh god, I totally forgot about that one. I loved it. The content still seems to be great, too. Nice.
Yeah, same. And man, I loved homeworld. Even spent too much money on that remastered collection with the mothership model when I was in college and shouldn’t have done it. But nah, not gonna buy an unfinished game.
I’m not growing up, I’m just burning out… and I step in line to walk amongst the dead.
They said it. 2018 miles. They got it last month, just drove it home and ran some errands with it.
Yeah. That’s the one I considered more deeply. Still too big. Still only 3 years of promised security updates and only two major revisions of android. Nah, hard pass.
/edit just saw that I mixed up the Roman and Latin numbers in my previous post. Yeah, the 5 is what I meant by 5.
Last year I needed a new phone. The Xperia V (I think) just got released and seemed perfect… But in the end I decided against it because of their horrendous update roadmap and large phone sizes. I’m not going to buy a new phone every three years and I hate phones that can’t be used with one hand - and despite doing a lot of things right, those two points are just not addressed by Sony. I want their compact range back and I want Fairphone levels of updates.
Xournal lets you paint on a document, which I guess isn’t what they need when they talk about legal stuff. Digitally signing a document is still one of the rare cases where I boot up my windows vm. It’s so annoying that there’s practically no way to do that in Linux as my company’s processes rely on it.
