I’d agree with this, thanks for chiming in!

Adobe is… kind of evil? He made the world a better place? Maybe at first.

It’s probably irresponsible of me, but now that I’m older and have expendable income - I will buy games, (usually on sale but sometimes at full price) to support the Devs of games I like. (Provided initial reviews are positive and the game is in a decent state, not riddled with micro-trans ect.)

Even if I don’t have the time to play it. I know I could get some games cheaper if I buy them later but I think the initial sales numbers are a big factor in whether or not certain franchises get continued funding.

Honestly, for the better. I always read the old one as anon-a-daddy which just felt like a trashy porn site lol

On an unrelated note, who is sitting on lemmy.games? We need a gaming dedicated instance. I got lemmygames.net but lemmy.games would make me happy.

Same!

Embedded pictures working great on Memmy as of today!

I’m currently playing x4 which is giving me a small dose of both. Overwhelmingly the game is more “make your own fun” but there are some small plot lines that reveal the story of some of the factions that I’ve been slow rolling as I build my empire.

All of you intrinsically motivated gamers. Have you heard of our lord and savior, Bob? Have you played eve online?

One of the most complex, brutal, make your own fun games I’ve ever played. On and off for 16 years and I still suck at it.

I’ll be searching learnccp for your reference. Thanks! Also huge thanks to everyone who keeps pouring the knowledge in! You guys rock!

Yup, hence why I’m on lemm.ee. Originally made an instance to cover when .world was being slow but I think this will be my main now. They haven’t finalized the vote but it seems to be going the defed route.

Still hugely supportive of the .world admins though. They’ve done a ton of work to keep .world running and a ton of digging that will help lemmy overall. I just don’t agree with federating with big social media.

Ton of thanks for all the replies and examples. Some of it is over my head at the moment but most of it has shed some light none of the self-teach material has gotten into, I appreciate that.

Letting this all sink then hitting the books again!

I’m having other issues, if my computer goes into deep sleep s3/s4, most of the time on resume steam will run in the background but won’t launch to the foreground or launch any apps until I restart the computer. I suspect it’s something to do with hardware acceleration so I’ve disabled it and am waiting to see there results.
