Out of all the games that I know for sure that have a native Linux port, I'm either going with Minetest, which I have been playing for Voxel Libre (once Mineclone2), or the Sonic Robo Blast 2 with the Reveries mod, despite not knowing what exactly it changes. They're the 2 games I know have a native port that I've been playing the most recently.
Don't know whether pizza from a place you can sit down in and eat counts, but there used to be a place called Rocky Rococo's. Best pizza in the whole city, until they disappeared off the map. Now I'd have to go to the other side of the country just for their pizza. For a place I wouldn't consider a restaurant, they had some of the absolute best pizza I've ever had.
Similar way is how I ended up finding out about Mindustry. Found it on F-Droid and liked it enough to buy it on Steam when I found out it's available there. Definitely a good idea if done right.
Too bad I don't have access to any apple products I could use to try it. Gonna have to look into this.
Edit: looked it up and it looks like something similar to Vib-Ribbon in terms.of gameplay, but from what I can gather, it's been over a decade since any updates. Also, I'd hope for a PC port of a Vib-Ribbon clone because there's no way you're getting me to play any more rhythm games where you have to use a small touch screen to play. No idea if that Russian Dancing Men has the ability to take local files stored on your phone and use them to generate levels, though, or where you'd go to get a legit copy of the app anymore even if you have an apple product able to play it.
Don't know quite how underrated/forgotten this is, but I wanna see a remake of Vib-Ribbon. That, or have an open source clone of it made by someone who actually knows how to properly program (not me), if it already doesn't exist.
It really is a massive W for Firefox, knowing that despite the security risks that are probably manufactured by gøøg|e on purpose to justify manifest v3, that they're still gonnaet v3 extensions use the web request API. Let's hope they keep that up for as long as possible.
I don't remember which book it was in, but the story about the person calling every single hour only to find out he was in the house the whole time scared me back in the day so much I absolutely dreaded going back to my room in the basement at night. Especially since my room was the furthest from the stairs.
Purely preference. That, and I've spent about a million times more time on an xbox360 than just about any other console in existence, so it's what I personally consider the best way. If you or someone you know uses any other way, that's your deal, but I just can't retrain myself to like any other format.
All gamepads that have it having a BAXY control scheme. That's B right, A down, X left, Y up for the buttons on the right side of the gamepad. I can't tell you how many times I have pressed the wrong buttons when playing certain games all because the 3rd party switch controller I have uses ABYX or because I don't remember where the symbols are on a PlayStation controller. Dreamcast and original Xbox had their shit together with how they used BAXY for their controllers and to this day I may shit on Microsoft, but not on the BAXY control scheme on their gamepads.
If you connect it to the Internet then sure it can be easily harvested by large companies. Pretty sure you can host an offline AI in a device you have made sure the hardware isn't gonna be phoning home and it'll probably be fairly safe if you aren't an idiot like me and actually know what you're doing.
It's not too old, released in 2017, but after over a year of being in my steam library I just installed Yooka-Laylee on my deck and got through the tutorial. So far it's a really fun game.
I'm a firm believer that regardless of operating system that a warning message saying that installing something could cause harm to your device definitely makes people think twice about installation if they're not tech savvy (AKA know more than the bare minimum anymore). It's definitely intentional that the large companies responsible scare you away from doing the things you want because they want you locked into doing things the way they want.
