Symphony of the Night
Also, if you enjoy Doom 1 and 2, I highly recommend seeking out Heretic and Strife. Heretic has amazing level design using the Doom engine to create places that feel like towns and medieval churches and stuff. And Strife somehow managed to make Doom into an interconnected world with a decent story.
I’m not big on Hexen - the respawning enemies and the lack of weapons (there’s only 4, technically 12 but you only have access to 4) bugged me.
Spelunky is a wonderful roguelike platformer which avoids a lot of escalation problems that “action roguelites” tend to suffer from.
Besides that, I’m partial to the Megaman X series (and the sequel series Megaman Zero and ZX). X4 in particular is always fun to put in and replay.
There are a whole lot of “templating” libraries which do what you’re asking for. I have used Hiccup for Clojure and Giraffe for F# successfully, and you can probably find others for languages you already know.
Splatoon 1 actually had local multiplayer - it was 2-player only, but for those of us with kids, it was good enough. Split screen multiplayer in Splatoon 2/3 would’ve been great.
Pretty much nothing you said is true, it was not “designed from the ground up to be frustrating” and the other statements are too vague to even bother attacking. “Not even wrong” is the phrase that comes to mind.
You didn’t even mention an example of a game which would count as “something good”.
Nice! I never played SC2 but I have a friend who raves about how good it is.
QubesOS. When you need security and don’t need to play games, this is objectively the best distro.
NixOS for me. It’s a package manager (a very nice, declarative one) that you can use on any Linux (or Mac), and there’s also an entire distro based on it.
Thank you for this! Gonna download it ASAP.
Good to know! I’ve been using local testing and fortunately haven’t run into a case where the tests pass local and fail on their servers. Yet.
My most intense solution so far had been a very multi-core Knapsack solution. The tests they provided are pretty minuscule, which probably helped.
I block meme communities and AI art. I’ll unblock AI art once the machines figure out how fingers work. I don’t block porn except when it’s outside of my interests (I’m not into men or furries, for example).
You might consider unblocking the meta communities - it can sometimes be illuminating to see how other places are run, and give you ideas to improve your own instance.
We don’t have downvotes on my instance, and it’s an amazing difference. I recommend it!
I generally just upvote everything I like, no real thought process involved.
I’ve been avoiding Amazon since 2010. No regrets. They crave your time, money, and attention, and they deserve none of those. (Same with Meta.)
Thank you! I hadn’t heard of Qanba before - they definitely have some interesting joysticks.
As someone who routinely watches YT through Invidious and NewPipe, I haven’t changed my habits.
The Electoral College.
I’m not into feet specifically, but when I ask for “Veronica Mars in a string bikini” I don’t want to get “Veronica Mars with unattached toes.” It’s distracting AF.
Doesn’t happen with real models, or even human-made hentai.
I’ve been using Linux since 2015, and I run OS updates ASAP. Usually about once every 1 or 2 weeks, if we are only counting system updates. So that’s about 298 updates total, right?
Given your math (298 × 0.3) , you predict that I would have encountered driver issues after an update 89 times.
I have encountered driver issues 0 times.
(This is across 4 computers and 5 distros.)
Hacker News works fine. Can’t vouch for the others, since I don’t touch corporate “AI” if I can help it.
