If it looks like a developer made a mistake, it was actually the product owner. Or the user. Or cosmic rays. But never the developer.

My case is abnormal, but even more rare is the guys that continue to be in pain for the rest of their lives. Didn’t find out about that until I started digging deeper because of my persistent pain.

Dang that sucks your urologist / surgeon didn’t let you know about this. Mine was very clear that though it is rare (was quoted 1% which seems kind high to me) he doesn’t recommend going through with the procedure if you have testicular pain in your day to day as it could be a risk factor for having permanent pain afterwards

Notepad also has persistent tabs now and you can close without saving

Enshittification is real

Epic already tried to sue Apple and Google for basically this, saying they had to charge their customers more to account for Apple’s cut given there was no other means of acquiring.

Is it true that they are variable length and slow down the boot / wake time?

Lil Gator Game for a pretty short (maybe 4ish hours), VERY cute love letter to growing up and Zelda. 3D adventure sort of platformer I suppose, not dissimilar to A Short Hike

Last I heard I think they had lost or fired 7 Editor in Chiefs across their holdings in the past 8 months or so. From what I’ve heard they are run pretty terribly for the people that work there and G/O just generally suck.

The former Kotaku EIC in particular did not have nice things to say about them on The Games Press podcast

What are P-Cards?

Fair but it’s also easily avoided by buying literally any other manufacturer who doesn’t pull shit like this

This is a bit victim blamey but why the heck would you buy a Huawei device outside of China? Have to assume you can’t be familiar with the many criticisms…

Whoa get those perverted thoughts out of here commie scum!

I wish it would go on sale… ever. I’ve bought it multiple times across several platforms now, I really don’t want to spend $60 trying to get all the DLC on PC

Ha, funny timing, I actually just got this working yesterday.

I recommend going with OpenTyrian2000 rather than the GOG edition. It has some extra scaling options and music works out of the box.

Basic steps:

• download OpenTyrian and data files (in Github description) from https://github.com/KScl/opentyrian2000
• extract all to same folder. Data files should sit in same directory as OpenTyrian2000.exe
• (optional) if you have a Windows PC, you can try running it and it should start up normally
• assuming that’s all working, copy the files to your Deck
• add a new Lutris shortcut to existing game. I used latest Wine.
• test that you can run the game on Deck, it should boot and play fine with sound and all. Scaling options are in the OpenTyrian2000 menu option.
• (optional) on Steam side map escape key to start so you can pause the game if needed. All the other default keybinds seem to work though I did not test for long so others like weapon switching may need to be changed.

Hope that helps! Let me know if I’ve messed anything up or if it’s not working for you

Back when I was a kid I got into building a cantenna and aircrack-ng when my parents shut the internet off every night. Wasn’t addicted to games, just found it interesting and entertaining. Also came in handy in the days of shaped internet when you ran out of GB for the month.
