Any platform that believes it should be their choice whether the user can opt-in to any part of the fediverse, is a big no from me.

They can change course on advertised usage if they can argue that they had a genuine intention for longevity and only changed course after.

I played it on my phone which nowadays is the port of the pixel remaster. I loved it and I thought it was great! I definitely felt a little overpowered due to not fleeing at all. I would recommend checking it out, I got just under 28 hours of playtime on my first run.

Just finished Red Dead Redemption 1 and Undead Nightmare on PC using the Xenia emulator (aussie.zone)

It’s a great game and I’m so glad I finally got to play it.

I’m running a RTX 2070 Super and a Ryzen 5 3600 with 32 gigs of RAM. Using Xenia-Canary I could run the game at 1080p with decent framerate, but that caused some really unpleasant brightness issues at night, so I stuck with 720p and honestly stopped noticing the low resolution after a while. The game ran at a stable 60 all the way to the end and I encountered absolutely no issues besides some flickering shadows once or twice.

If you have a decent gaming PC and have never played the original RDR I strongly recommend you try this. It can be a bit of a faff to find what emulator settings work for you, but once you get it working properly, it’s an absolute blast. RDR still holds up really well in my opinion.

Australia’s internet providers are ditching email, to the disgust of older customers in c/[email protected]

It was the main introduction to email for a lot of Australians, they've been using it as is for 15-20 years.

It's more than just one generation that uses it, I know people in their thirties who use theirs via the Gmail app as with any long-term email their is no need to change address.

I remember only signing up to Gmail because it felt new and techy.

The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series

The first game was fantastic, the subsequent releases during Telltale's pre-insolvency era were subjective. Personally they are a great series and its -70% off at fanatical atm.

Let everyone know below a game (6+ months old), that you have played recently, are currently playing or intend to play soon. If it's currently on sale, a link to the sale & price would be great.
