I don’t, because a single individual committed a crime, and got punished for it. Not sure what you think was obvious about this.

Country?

Country?

If I remember correctly, yes. There was a pain in the ass a few years ago when Firefox switched from their own add-on system to one that matched Chrome’s, despite Firefox’s being more powerful and mature. The goal was to make it easier to port Chromes (arguably) greater variety of add-ons to Firefox.

It was an unpopular decision and it was the start of a downward decline for Firefox. People that had their browser “just the way I like it” found themselves starting fresh essentially, and without some of their favourite add-ons.

The number of people that do this is not going to even remotely shift the usage share percentage.

“Rust Belt” isn’t literal, it refers to an area of the US where industrial manufacturing declined significant in the second half of the 20th century. It’s called that in part at least because its previous moniker was “Steel Belt”.

Well apart from how tired the “this thing is bad, this thing is good” meme format is, I think there are credible allegations of grooming?

Uh, yeah. And there’s absolutely no soft g sound in what he says. The word clearly ends in a hard sound.

Unless you hear him pronouncing it with a hard G, I don’t know how you can hear college. It ends with a hard sound (voiced plosvie).

To me it actually sounds like co-ed because there’s definitely a c/k at the start and d at the end, and a blustering moron’s mouth noises in the middle, but I don’t see how they get from that to college and I do see how you get from that to coloured. Why he wouldn’t own “co-ed” I don’t know because sounding like a behind the times old white dude is very much their brand

Proper nouns are names.

… Yes? And for the full points, what is a noun?

Proper nouns are, in fact, words.

Man they really don’t teach you guys basic English.

My friend, Americans do not care about how words are pronounced in the original language/location.

Well I’ve definitely given it a fair go.

It’s had so many free updates because it is a visual game and so every reason to make a new trailer is new marketing. Every trailer is 3 second jump cuts of something visually interesting. Ocassionally giving away that the gameplay is still “aim the same tool that does the same thing at a rock, plant or creature until a number goes up in the ship. Use the bigger number in the ship to improve how high the number is allowed to go in the ship. Use the ship to get to a new rock, plant or creature. Oh and learn words?” I just genuinely do not understand what people are getting from it. Maybe there’s a plateau in the point in the game I’m at and I am simply another 4 hours of pointing at rocks, plants and creatures until I unlock the fun, but I am old. I don’t have time to unlock the fun. To be fair I’ve never been the grinding sort.

And I’m definitely into “explore space and build things in a non-story, non-linear way”

OK Lemmy’s being weird but here is where the screenshot of 2500 hours in Kerbal Space Program goes.

Enjoy your, eh, interesting heightmap and unspecified directives to accomplish mysteries.

Exploration implies there is anything but a slightly different colour palette of the same world but with alien dinosaurs of different proportions onto which to build the same base.

Loads more content and still nothing to do after 2 hours

Well someone cropped the part of this image where this maths experiment was inspired by trying to figure out how a small dinosaur died in a stranger crater.

That image is an outline of the fossil millions of years later, not a drawing of puke containing bones or a dinosaur getting instantly defleshed

The idea is that the impact would have killed a little dromaeosaur

The same reputation extends to Windows too so I don’t think it’s a Linux specific issue.

I like the UX as it’s pretty powerful but I’m mindful of being ancient and having spent nearly a decade working with arcane telco applications. I have the opposite of your complaint - I like that it does periodic checks and will notify you of detected problems and usually give you a button to press to solve it.

My biggest pain usually comes in load order management. Usually this is because this is mentioned nowhere but in a note at the bottom of the mod description that might say something like “near the top” or “after mod x”. I don’t know how Steam just handles this mostly but I have a feeling it might be strong categorisation of mods.

No-one has ever told me what’s actually wrong with Vortex.
