Ohh, saved for later, saw a few i was too young to play effectively on my 3/486 at that age. Thank you

I just started playing Dark Forces again, had no idea there is a way to modernize it, thanks for sharing!

OTINOKTYAH,

Glad that it can help you :) Have fun with Dark Forces!

There’s even an official remaster on GOG and Steam. I heard that its assets even work with the open source engine.

ddash,

I know, just didn’t feel like buying it. Even with a discount it felt expensive when I already own the original.

bjoern_tantau,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Me too. I’m waiting for it to go below 10 or maybe even 5 €.

ddash,

It is on my wishlist for that reason :D

But maybe if this fan project works well enough I’ll take it off.

ddash,

Dude, I just installed The Force Engine on my Steamdeck, found a good write-up how to do that via the flatpak the project now offers. It’s fantastic, looks so much better and plays very smooth! And since you point it to the current game directory I could even continue my progress from the original game!

There’s also Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, and the community developed version

OTINOKTYAH,

You are right, i forgot this one too! Thanks for pointing that out :)

How come there’s no mention of 0.A.D, it has amazing graphics, at least from the videos and screenshots. Haven’t gotten a chance to play it unfortunately.

Hi, i’ve put it in the “Addendum “Inspired Games””

Whole Lee Shit jazz jackrabbit brings back memories. I remember my first time playing it at a friend of the family’s house, there was a dude there talking shit about how Windows was for lazy people (I was very young and windows was still kinda newish)

But how dare you not include OpenMW! Imagine having an og Xbox masterpiece on your phone, and you can mod it!

OTINOKTYAH,

It was already on the list (TES III: Morrowind) ;)

YiddishMcSquidish,

Oh, I didn’t even see it even though I was looking for it. My b homie

YiddishMcSquidish,

I think I was looking for it under “M” like the idiot I tend to be when trying to launch it through steam.

Here regular is 1.5 euro per liter, expensive one 1.8-1.9 euro per liter

SpikesOtherDog,

That’s about $6.50/gallon.

In the Midwest it starts looking high at half that

massive_bereavement,

At that price, unicorn blood and printer ink seem cheaper.

CaptPretentious,

Well, not yet anywho

tigeruppercut,

The US has some of the cheapest gas in the world outside the OPEC countries (and I think Venezuela is cheap too). Japan right now is about $4.50/gal

SpikesOtherDog,

Yeah, I’m not sure about the mechanics, but I’m sure plenty of palms are greased to keep gas prices low. It’s one of the things people like to blame on the president.

It’s because there’s no market for it, all the cars are EV’s

The minefield has been cleared. You fence of the remaining space with appropriate warning signs. Once the marked sights are disarmed the area can again be made available to the public and the nation can begin to heal.

Fossil fuels need to be way more expensive

Kusimulkku,

Fuck the poor

5714,

By forcing us to drive a car?

Kusimulkku,

Yes just walk two hours to work instead

5714,

The mileage of 6 miles (10km) isn’t going kill you, I’m talking about the bigger picture of cheap cars fueling urban sprawl with little spatial income density and we haven’t talked about subsidy inequality yet.

Kusimulkku,

10 km

Haha yeah, 10km… 😭

Also everything else is getting more expensive and poor people are already struggling to make ends meet. Not great making their life even harder

5714,

I assumed fast walking to be 5 km/h and you said 2 hours.

I’m totally with you, but the US mobility problem is fucked since the 1950s and now there’s no easy solution. The bigger picture is that every investment into car-only infrastructure will hurt the working poor and precariat.

A short-term solution could be raising fossil fuel taxes and subsidising people who cannot afford any other mode of transportation with a part of that money.

pdqcp,

subsidising people

by building better public transport infrastructure :)

“Americans think 100 years is a long time and Europeans think 100 km is a long distance”

I’m fortunate to not be in this situation anymore but the commute for my last job before this one was around 40mi. That’s 64km and a bit. Prior to that it was closer to 60mi or 96.5km, I was driving over an hour just to get to work. This is not uncommon for Americans, especially poor ones. If you can’t afford to live in the city but still need a job so you can eat, situations like this are sometimes unavoidable.

5714,

The low fuel prices built this environment.

skulblaka,
@skulblaka@sh.itjust.works avatar

Sure. But we’re in it now, and low fuel prices maintain the ability of the American working poor to survive. Changing this now would condemn millions of innocents to bankruptcy, homelessness and eventually death.

I don’t like it either, believe me. I want walkable cities, and sensible zoning, and affordable housing. But we don’t have that and there isn’t a magic switch we can throw to just make it happen. We’ve painted ourselves into a corner about this.

GissaMittJobb,

2 hours should be something in the range of 10-12 km walking, which with reasonable infrastructure should be more than manageable on either transit or by bike.

Reasonable infrastructure being the key words here

zaphodb2002,

Fuck man, it takes me 45 minutes to drive to my workplace maybe 30 miles away, and that’s the closest town with more than a single grocery store and a couple gas stations. Also I live on top of a mountain because that’s the only place I can afford to live and still be within driving distance of work. And of course no public transit at all out here, we have like 3 stop lights total. I literally couldn’t walk to work and back, and also do things like working or sleeping. Just not enough hours in the day. Even on a bike 30 miles uphill at the end of the day, every day, would be brutal. Also no sidewalks, bike lanes, or even shoulders on most of the roads. Cliffs on both sides for most of it. You’d get creamed pretty quick. Infrastructure is so fucked here, partly because I live in a very mountainous area and also horrible NIMBYs everywhere. I’d love to not have to drive my car and buy gas but that’s the only way I can feed myself.

sexy_peach,
@sexy_peach@feddit.org avatar

That’s exactly my intention!

Duamerthrax,

If you think high gas prices are terrible for the poor, wait till you see how climate change will effect the poor

Kusimulkku,

wait

Yeah exactly, one is fucking them over right now and one will add to the misery later.

Duamerthrax,

No, climate change is fucking over the poor now. If it’s not fucking you over, you’re not as poor as you think you are.

Kusimulkku,

“Well clearly you’re not poor enough to be in a shit situation, that’s why it’s fine to make your life even harder”

Lmao. Someone struggling to make ends meet working two jobs sure will appreciate this sentiment.

Duamerthrax,

Talk to the subsistence farm in Africa who’s annual rainfall is getting disrupted or Islanders like the people of Tuvalu who have to evacuate because their homes are too close to sea. How much CO2 have they put into the atmosphere?

Kusimulkku,

You are genuinely “children in Africa are starving” the concerns of poor people lmao. Fuck the poor, they’re not poor enough to have their concern matter
