They still make DVDs?

Double Dragon Neon has an absolutely banging soundtrack. I wish I could get it on Spotify, but it’s only on Bandcamp. Mango Tango is amazing.

runs great on Deck, really enjoyed it.

Elite was released in 1983. It was originally made on and for the BBC model B, which had 32Kb of RAM!

Just had a thought, what if Putin has taken Prigozhin’s family hostage and pretending to take the deal is just a play for time while they rescue them? It would be a great movie plot.

What if the Ukrainians paid Wagner to do this to cause a distraction? That would be pretty crazy too!

What a weird outcome. Putin now looks weak and Prigozhin looks stupid for trusting any deal that Putin could make.

While that’s true, those weapons are currently under the control of a fascist government and increasingly desperate despot, so I don’t see how them being in the hands of mercs is any worse. At least you know what mercs are motivated by.

Nope, sorry, I am still not having it. The Russians are the only ones jeopardising peace in the region. NATO is a defensive pact. If Russia didn’t invade their neighbours, they would have nothing to fear from NATO. You are still apologising for Russian aggression and blaming its cause on the west, even if you’re trying to say it in an intellectual way or “both sides” it.

Could we be refusing to accept it as truth because it isn’t true? In what way has the US destabilised Ukraine? How did the US make Russia invade Ukraine? I can’t find a way to make either of these statements make any sense at all. I’m British FYI and we have our own bone to pick with the Russians.

It feels strange, this argument that we (the western world) made Russia invade another country and rape children. If only Russia didn’t have to invade another country and rape their women and children! If only! But we made Russia do it by talking to that country about joining a defensive pact against another country invading them and raping their women and children. I mean, Russia had to immediately invade and start raping, right? Because Ukraine were going to join some other countries who would come to their aid if Russia were to invade and start raping. Where would Russia be if they couldn’t just invade countries and start raping women and children, right?

What the absolute fuck is wrong with people like you? What Russia has done is indefensible, so fucking stop it?

You all seem to be starting from the basis that downloading a torrent is illegal. It is not, it is only distribution/upload that’s an issue. If you behave as a leech and kill it after you’re done the worst you’re going to get is a complaining letter from your ISP.

I torrent without a VPN and haven’t had a single email from my ISP, but I presume it’s because I’m a business customer.

It’s also awful that tens of millions of Americans can’t afford to go to a doctor, but I don’t see you calling for us to spend less on war in order to bolster the welfare of our own people.

Yes, it’s such a shame that countries can’t fund two things at the same time. 🙄

adding the U.S., in fact, bore heavy responsibility for the ongoing war.

What’s his rationale for this BS? How did the US make Russia do anything? How stupid would anyone have to be to be convinced by this sort of nonsense?

There’s nothing wrong with using a game controller to steer the thing, I think the issue is more the lack of backup or failsafes.

Also, I’m very much a layperson in this field, but would it have not made sense to tether this thing to a ship on the surface? They could have kept in contact with the surface via the tether and had them reel the thing back in if there were problems with its propulsion or steering.

I saw the video of its interior. As someone who has claustrophobia, it’s absolute nightmare fuel. It’s a cylinder about 15 feet long and maybe 6 feet wide that you can’t even stand up in. It’s going to be very unpleasant for 5 people.

Wow, Digg is still around?

been playing it via Yuzu EA builds. It runs just fine on the Deck at around 30fps, dipping to 20fps in some of the harder to render areas but it’s certainly playable. I play on my gaming rig as well where it can easily keep a consistent 30fps.

So it’s missing all the things that made Mass Effect good

I’d say that’s fair.

The graphics are pretty good and combat is enjoyable for about an hour, but the game is incredibly repetitive - drive around the planet, peril will be provided by cold/heat/gas, solve the exact same boring puzzles, fight one of two kinds of bad guy, go to a new planet and do it again, etc.

The story was almost in danger of being interesting at times, but the plot is cliched and predictable. I didn’t like Andromeda and I loved ME1-3
