Buy the gog version and make a backup of the offline installer version. Turn off automatic updates if you have installed it via one of the game manager apps.

At least be accurate.

The “Pro” model iPhone has a lot of the features you are calling out the non-pro one for not having. Also no non-proprietary lossless audio streaming would be more accurate.

/home is for every program to store its personal junk in hidden files apaprently

Xubuntu is more than fine. Tbh it doesn’t hugely matter which distro you use for this type of thing

What I could gather:

• both items and bro attacks (the bro attacks seem to be short and quick, the items seem to be longer)
• something about combining basic attacks into “combination attacks” but they didn’t have a clip of this

Not all games are like that. BG3 is an example of a game that isn’t like that.

Honestly if you buy a Mac give macOS a try. It’s Unix based so you’ll feel at home in the command line. It doesn’t come with a command line package manager but there are two popular ones you can install (homebrew and macports).

Unfortunately it really doesn’t. And it’s actually Linux that’s the bigger problem: whenever it decides to updates GRUB it looks for OSes on all of your drives to make grub entries for them. It also doesn’t necessarily modify the version of grub on the booted drive.

Yes I’m sure there’s a way to manually configure everything perfectly but my goal is a setup where I don’t have to constantly manually fix things.

I played the previous mobile version of the Pokemon TCG. The problem is, the game doesn’t even try to be balanced. Whoever has the most valuable cards wins - full stop. The more valuable cards are just straight up more powerful, rarely with any cost difference or drawbacks.

There are plenty of good mobile TCGs out there though.

Don’t show this to the Rust fans

If you can pull it off, successful merchandising is far more lucrative than the original media. A tale as old as consumerism.

My experience was that the school provided free Windows keys for a personal computer if you needed one (they didn’t provide the computer itself) but the majority of computers I interacted with on campus (mostly in the computer lab) were Linux (some Debian variant iirc). I think the printing computers in the library were windows. I took an art class at one point and they had Macs (it was for using the Apple’s Final Cut Pro).

We never used LibreOffice though. Everyone just uses Google Drive.

We’ve known they’ve been working on other games for years now. A lot of the community thought Marathon would take resources away from D2 (to the point there’s a meme about Marathon being “The Destiny Killer”).

The denied those allegations about Marathon but not it turns out those were fairly accurate.

This is a great game but also there’s already a remake of it for Switch.

There are comic plotlines where Dr. Doom is a variant of Iron Man. It’s not necessarily driven by some sort of desperation.

That has more to do with game design than matchmaking, but yes, it’s hard to balance games so that dying has consequence but isn’t too un-fun.

Hard disagree. I neither like dunking on or being dunked on. The best games are when it’s a close match, and you know you played well but the other team did too.

Some of the pieces are growing, but it’s cut at an angle so the growing is spread over a large area, and the growing happens as pieces are moving around, making it hard to notice.

(Specifically it’s the pieces 2 and 3 wide with an angled cut on the bottom that grow).

Math formatting is a very small piece of what LaTeX does.

The common tool for managing citation in a LaTeX document is called BibTeX. You enter details about your sources, and BibTeX will create your bibliography and will also make it easier to cite things in your paper.

30% is industry standard (although it is starting to change). Until recently, both Apple and Google took 30% cuts from their phone app stores. Numbers I can find for GoG range from 30%-50%. Epic games is like 12%.
