Oh, I stand corrected

People are just now acknowledging it. Execs tend to have a disdain for the minutiae. They’re like kids that only want to do the exciting bits. As a result things get fucked because they don’t really understand what they’re doing. As Muskrat would say “move fast and break things.” It’s a terrible mindset.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Fuck I hate self-righteous “downvotes aren’t for things you dislike” shit like this. Pair it with the hypocritical assumption people don’t understand something you admit youhaven’t taken the time understand yourself and you’re nearing peak oblivious internet poster.

How the hell are you supposed to say you don’t like a post/comment? Can we please stop treating up/down votes like a mandatory tip? So someone posted something, if it’s shit it gets downvotes if it’s not it doesn’t. You don’t automatically deserve an upvote just because you posyed something. Fuck right off with that.

As an aside, the desktop paradigm has been solid for decades for a reason. Clickbait “we should change things for the sake of change” shit like this absolutely should be downvoted as the meaningless algorithm baiting drivel it is.

I mean, dude got it pretty spot on, so can we really criticize the accuracy?

I use MATE for this very reason

I’m pretty sure no part of this is a good thing

I enjoyed what little of it there was too, but there just wasn’t anything substantial to it. What was there was mechanics FO4 did better 8 years earlier supporting a non existent story and a largely empty world. I was willing to overlook that snapping/building ships/outposts was FO4’s settlement building but somehow worse. I was prepared to accept that individual clothing pieces were no longer a thing in favor of monolithic outfits even though it felt like a step backwards. I was even willing to accept that I couldn’t walk from one side of a settlement to the other without 3 load screens but by the time it got to the “ending” and my own gorram character just chuckles at me for thinking anything whatsoever would be explained it was obvious that I’d been taken for a ride. I liked what was there, or maybe I just really wanted to, but I was much more disappointed by what wasn’t there.

Bethesda’s Starfield was generally a well-regarded RPG,

According to whom? It was a hollow shell of a game with a main storyline that can be summed up as “there is none.”

I want to agree with you, but Starfield would need to have writing in the first place. The whole main story boils down to “there is no story, why would you think there would be?” I honestly believe Todd Howard shot down every idea to cross his desk because he thought he knew better.

I mean, they might if they just fucking fired Todd Howard. He’s rapidly turning into Peter Molyneux and he needs to just go away.

“This thing they announced for last year, then pushed back to this year and released to coincide with a massively hyped TV show was a complete surprise to us.” Is that really FO:London’s stance? I mean, I feel for them that it sucks, but to call it a surprise feels straight up disingenuous.

I’ve been using it since Fedora Core 7 back in like 05 or something. It’s pretty solid. I use mate rather than gnome, but otherwise it’s an excellent, very FOSS, choice.

“Cock,” singular. It wouldn’t be a very interesting book. I don’t have any hard to pronounce problems, I’m just a jerk.

I’m an IT person professionally, and I use Fedora as my daily driver. MacOS just grinds on me in ways I can’t properly articulate.

Edit: oh wait, maybe I can!
