I'm almost done with the DLC and most bosses are in-line with the last few bosses in the main game. I never felt like it was overly unfair, that said I did notice stuttering every now and then, but nothing major. Wish that got fixed.

But unfortunately you can't use this while playing online.

 

Very surprising. The game looked like it had a lot of potential and could've been the most popular sims alternative, but it's suddenly been cancelled.

It depends on what you mean by piece of technology I guess, since what we have now is a culmination of thousands of awesome tech over the last few hundred years.

If I were to choose one thing, I'd say the telephone. It's the predecessor to the internet, and suddenly communication between people was instant rather than messages that'd take forever (or morse for the places that had it).

It probably changed the world forever, being able to talk to someone in a completely different country and share something quickly.

Ahh, memories. Still remains the greatest falling sand game ever made. I checked last year and was surprised my 2012 uploads were still available.

 

I saw a tiny bit and they seem legit, they gave content creators early access to the DLC and now there's a lot of gameplay, bosses, and story being spoiled on social media. Be careful out there.

Alan Wake 2 isn't American Nightmare, that's an expansion. There isn't a protondb page of alan wake 2 because it's not on Steam

One year already, eh? Happy cake day :)

Right? Cats are very low effort. They can basically live on their own and have a good habit of staying clean and only pooping in the litterbox. Chances are they'll either be sleeping or lazing around the house. Putting them next to dogs which need WAY more attention is off.

Because they were getting really stale and they wanted to hold onto the franchise name anyways. People are nostalgic now, but when AC games were coming out back to back people were getting really bored of it.

When Assassin's Creed 3 came out, everyone was saying how this is the third time they remade what is basically the same game (AC2, brotherhood, revelations, then 3). People weren't impressed. Unity and Rogue didn't sell that well. Syndicate apparently also didn't sell very well.

So they basically remade the franchise into an RPG starting from Origins. They aren't that special, but honestly, neither was everything after Revelations.

They updated their TOS to say they can access and review anything you create on their products: https://80.lv/articles/people-aren-t-happy-with-adobe-s-spyware-like-terms-of-service-update/

Everyone that wants context should read this: https://lunduke.substack.com/p/the-internet-archives-last-ditch

Listen, I love the IA and everything they stand for, but they're not winning this. They fucked up and gave away copyrighted content, for free, in unlimited amounts during covid. They then proceed to melt down in court because they know it's impossible to win. Now they're seeking empathy from everyone and not talking about why they got sued - which is giving away potentially millions of copies of other people's work...

It's honestly kind of amazing that it lasted so long in the first place

Dunno, but Llama 3 is the best open source model and Claude 3 is the best overall model they offer.

They've been hyping these up since forever. Aren't the laptops supposed to release this month? When will the embargo be lifted so we can see real benchmarks?
