I got a used Herman Miller Sayl for $175. It’s not the best chair in the world, but it’s pretty good. There may be used office furniture stores in your area. I’d start there.

Yet another project that claims to be open source, but isn’t actually licensed under an open source license. This one doesn’t even have an explicit license, so it’s “all rights reserved”

Neat, though.

EDIT: I really appreciate that hackster.io didn’t perpetuate that claim in their article. More news outlets need to be better at this.

EDIT 2: The creator has added a GPL 3 license to their repository :)

When I was in high school, before smartphones, I would sit on the left side of the classroom, put my flip phone in my left hand next to my thigh, and play Tetris one handed. I’d have my pencil in my right hand to make it look like I was taking notes and would pause periodically to look up and look like I was paying attention. It got me through the vast majority of classes haha.

Constant connection to servers required to play, even if the entire game is being run locally.

Always online single-player is the dumbest thing. It’s disgusting.

Another data point: I have a Ryzen 5900x and an RTX 3080. In BG3 I average 80-90 fps with 1% lows over 60fps on a 4k screen with ultra settings and DLSS quality setting.

I have an Nvidia GPU and I use it with Linux, even with Wayland, but it’s still not quite there yet, and because all the fixes have to come from proprietary Nvidia driver changes, nobody really knows when/if everything will be fixed. AMD has been much better with support and switching to AMD for your next.card will save you a lot of headaches.

I imagine it being done similarly to Genndy Tartakovsky’s Primal. I doubt a Hollywood studio would back a feature film done in that way, but I think if it was, it could be faithful to the game, impactful, and beautiful.

I think that 404 Media is a great example of a recent independent media organization that has a great user experience and a monetization strategy that doesn’t make me feel gross. A lot of their pull is the excellent journalism and writing, and the fact that the journalists that started it are respected and have a decent following. I don’t know how feasible this type of setup would be without that head start.
