I can’t see myself going back to the original Half-Life after playing Black Mesa. The changes to Xen alone are massive improvements.

CoolMatt,

Just started a playthrough of Black Mesa, after having played HL1 like fuck idk, 18 years ago? Barely remember it, but going through the levels I’m like “Oh yeah I remember this part, with the mine cart/train thingies”

Looked at screenshots of HL1 the other day and laughed that I will never play it ever again

It’s an ironic line to start with.

illi,

Yeah, no civilization can get rid of bad people. It just gives them camouflage

kalistia,

It is indeed from the writers, but not from John’s point of vue, I think he recognizes that the country is changing and is a bit hopeful. Well, we know what happened next! 😅

I just wanted to say, thank you! I’ve missed this kind of info after moving away from Reddit. This is absolutely wonderful, and I will look forward to any more you post, though I fully understand if you get busy or lose interest. Thank you!!!

Thanks for saying so!

I used to share these so very often on Reddit, esp on my own sub-reddit there…and it’s honestly the one thing I missed about being there. I’m very glad I remembered about Lemmy and re-joined here, because it’s been so much fun finding a (mostly) willing audience for this kind of post again!

I’m trying to force myself to write these only one per week, but so far the majority were only 3 or 4 days between each. I’m sticking around :)

linkybunny,

Well then I will be keeping an eye out. These will give me some news I can read without fear of flood of negative or depressing news. Thank you again!

I was a Halo 3 try hard and if anything I was nicer to female voices because I stupidly wanted to woo them. IDK exactly what the logistics of that would have been thinking back.

Those old computer dungeon crawler games, like Wizardry or Might and Magic 1-2. Jesus, they’re absolute exercises in patience. You don’t even have to play anything very recent to see how poorly they aged, even SNES JRPGs of 1992-4 were much better.

Weird Al, take that one with my blessing and run for the hills… cause judging by the downvotes, the incels have my scent.

Asafum, do games w Aged like milk, John!

There are three guarantees in life:

Death

Taxes

The Battlefield franchise. I went back and played 1942, and disregarding the graphics, omg it’s so slow and clunky. It was the shit for the day, but man…compared to 2042 it’s super-dated.

Thank you for writing these. Love to read them.

I really wish GOG would do more to support Linux and the Deck. I started buying a little bit more there ever since Heroic came around but overall the Steam experience is still vastly superior.

I make sure that every game I buy on GOG is done so through Heroic, so that the team (hi, Linguin!) gets the small % of each sale. I do love that GOG have an arrangement with them - it makes me very glad there is some option. And lucky for us, that option is amazing.

Mackie, do zapytajszmer w Buy European

Big tech (oraz technologia wojskowa) to działki gdzie najtrudniej będzie zastąpić amerykańców. Ale jak dla mnie to nie jest tylko jednorazowa akcja tylko pewien shift w myśleniu - część usług już wymieniłem, na część nie miałem jeszcze czasu, a wiele z alternatyw jeszcze nie istnieje albo jest zbyt niedojrzałe. Europejska konkurencja Google będzie za parę lat, doczekamy się i innych jak Office, jeśli ten shift będzie duży i trwały.

Co do social media to moda może zmienić się z dnia na dzień, gorzej z takim molochem jak FB, gdzie tysiące lokalnych firemek na całą swoją aktywność… Tu potencjalna zmiana może zająć najwięcej.

sikoraig,

Zgadzam się. Nie chodzi o rewolucję, a o ewolucję. Do tego wydaje mi się, że wybieranie europejskich usług, nawet jeśli są niedoskonałe, daje szansę na ich powiększenie i udoskonalenie w przyszłości.

Faktycznie jednak ciężko zastąpić bigtechy - skoro jestem na FB od jakichś 15 lat, w Google podobnie (jak nie więcej), ciężko teraz wszystkie dane naraz przenieść np. Na Protona.

lysy,

Powoli, krok po kroku. Mi to chwilę zajęło, żeby odciąć się od Google’a, ale satysfakcja z używania rzeczy robionych przez znajomych anarchistów przy użyciu wolnego oprogramowania zdecydowanie wynagrodziła jakikolwiek trud przełączenia się. I tu od razu zareklamuję disroot.org, które daje swego rodzaju coś podobnego do konta Google, tylko że lepsze, m.in. usługi takie jak konto xmpp, konto email, kalendarz, kontakty, dysk sieciowy, cospend i inne. Darmowe, aczkolwiek można (i warto) wesprzeć np. na Liberapay.

Powiedziałabym, że problem nie tkwi w trudności przenoszenia danych, a raczej w trudności “przenoszenia ludzi”, tak żeby oni zaczęli korzystać z nowych rozwiązań.

Dobrze, że wspomniałeś o czasochłonności tej zmiany. Jednak miło by było, gdyby wszystko to wydarzyło się w trybie natychmiastowym, ale z drugiej strony na rzeczywiście wypracowanie skutecznych rozwiązań potrzeba czasu.

Don’t mind me, I’m just going to keep up voting these posts because they’re so well done.

As with each of these I post, I am just amazed that what I stumble over, save and share here in these posts is as interesting to others as it is to me!

Thank you for reading through and having fun :)
