atocci,

Really looking forward to the Project: Hail Mary movie adaption because of your first point. Can't wait to see the little guy

atocci,

Don't worry, they still haven't acknowledged it! This is IGN's video!

atocci,

Can Win32 programs run on the xbox? I know there's Edge, but iirc, that's packaged in some unique way.

atocci,

I'm pretty sure the shared applications it's referring to there are UWP apps, which use a different set of APIs to traditional Win32 apps that are only available on full Windows versions. I looked into how Edge works a bit more, and it sounds like Microsoft made a special translation layer to take Edge's Win32 API calls and turn them into UWP ones. I guess games would be possible to run like this too?

China is building a railgun that can hurl crewed spacecraft into orbit (newatlas.com) angielski

Rockets being passé, China is working on using an electromagnetic railgun to launch crewed spacecraft the size of a Boeing 737, weighing 50 tonnes, into orbit. This remarkably ambitious project is even more ambitious than it seems at first glance.

atocci, (edited )

While railguns are known for rapidly accelerating projectiles to hypersonic speeds over the short length of a gun barrel, there's no limit on how slowly they can accelerate something or how long the "rail" part of the railgun can be. Accelerating "slowly" over a long distance is totally possible!

Epic Games reportedly hit by 189GB hack, including login and payment info (www.rockpapershotgun.com) angielski

The report comes from Cyber Daily, who also broke the news of last year’s confirmed hack attack on Insomniac Games. The site claims that new ransomware group Mogilevich are the culprits, as per the screencap of a darkweb posting above, and that the hackers are now trying to get Epic or another party to pay up for the return of...

atocci,

If I only have an account through Xbox login, and my only payment method is PayPal, what kind of risks are there?

atocci,

That seems like a bit of a stretch to me. If they felt the need to change the title, they would have done that before this reveal considering the war has been ongoing for 2 years now.

atocci,

No. Xbox will get 0.1.1.3 "when it's ready". I don't know if those version numbers are comparable to the Steam version though

Rainbow Road + Mario Kart = Death
Electric car + fire = Tesla

My favorite creation so far has been "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass Wave 4"

atocci,

No I think it's bugged. My best guess is some kind of AI is creating the crafting results, so it must be returning an invalid result.

atocci,

I'm not even sure, the chain of crafting I had to go through was so long I couldn't tell you what I did. I gave it another go later on and only managed to create "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass". To make things more difficult, results that are too long can't be combined with anything else, so you have to create those long results all at once from very specific shorter ingredient words.

atocci,

Just to be clear, there aren't micro-transactions in the game, are there?

atocci,

I hope they do release it. I was looking into getting the Legion Go back when it launched but all the reviews between it and the Ally made me realize how much I rely on SteamOS-specific features.

atocci,

Game suspension in sleep mode is the big one. I don't know how, but it seems like they've perfected a way to suspend any game when the system goes to sleep and then pick right back up where you left off when you wake it again without any hitches. It works just like the Switch or any other handheld, except it's a PC and it's doing it with games that aren't made to be suspended like that.

atocci,

I got the mini fridge, I thought that was hilarious.

atocci,

I mean, if the single player is still good, which 5's was too imo

atocci,

I've never thought about this before, I guess I use fingertip though. I just kinda move the mouse around using mostly my thumb and pinky finger.

atocci,

The move means existing Steam Client installations on those operating systems will no longer receive updates of any kind, including security updates.

We expect the Steam client and games on these older operating systems to continue running for some time.

The company is encouraging all High Sierra and Mojave users to update "sooner rather than later" and noted that Apple ended security updates and technical support for both operating systems in December 2020 and October 2021, respectively.

atocci,

From what I can gather, it sounds like things will keep working until something changes on the back-end that leaves the old Steam client unable to connect anymore. I don't think they can't say when that will be exactly though because it depends on future updates.

atocci, (edited )

That's an old support page from back when Apple originally dropped support for 32-bit apps, it wasn't written with the discontinuation of the 32-bit Mojave Steam Client in mind because at that point they were still supporting it. They won't be removing 32-bit games from your libraries, but the 32-bit Mojave Steam client will eventually stop working, and without any warning, when a future update inevitably breaks compatibility. They may still be in your library, but you wont have any way to install those 32-bit games anymore.

This article isn't stoking fear imo, it's very straightforward about what's happening here. At some indeterminate point in the future, there will be no more installing 32-bit MacOS games from Steam and anything you already have installed will presumably need to be run in offline mode because the client will stop working.

atocci,

The blog doesn't link to that support page because that support page isn't related to this. It's out of date and was written when MacOS originally dropped support for 32-bit apps starting with Catalina. Valve was letting people know that even though they wouldn't be able to play their 32-bit games if they update to Catalina, they would still be in their library and available to install on Mojave and earlier. Valve was still supporting the 32-bit Steam client back then.

atocci,

What about it is misinformation? It's practically just Steam's own announcement worded differently. Everything in it is verifiable and supported by the Steam blog post.

atocci, (edited )

Is it possible you might be looking at this old support page from when MacOS first dropped support for 32 bit apps but Valve was still supporting the 32-bit client for older MacOS versions? The current page is this one. I doubt they'll be removing games from your libraries at any point, but the new article makes it clear that they aren't supporting the 32-bit Mojave Steam client or 32-bit games on Mac anymore and make no guarantees that they'll continue to work when the client stops getting updates.

After February 15th, 2024, we will no longer support macOS 10.14 or earlier and we are unable to guarantee continued functionality of 32-bit macOS games after that date.

atocci,

Just on MacOS though, I don't think Windows will be dropping 32 bit support ever.

atocci,

What exactly is this game trying to be?

atocci,

Wait what does this have to do with Game Pass?

atocci,

Oh, so they're like, actually making something with all that money, huh. Wow

atocci,

There goes Microsoft, killing another Google product smh

atocci,

They can't even manage to beat Steam on their own OS to be fair lol

atocci,

There's kinda a precedent for that already though in Minecraft, the other mega-franchise cross-platforms game that “everyone” buys.

atocci,

That's not true at all. Minecraft Bedrock Edition, Minecraft Dungeons, and Minecraft Legends are all available on both Playstation and Nintendo Switch. Bedrock Edition is available for Chromebooks. Dungeons and Legends are both on Steam and will run through Proton.

Bedrock Edition is not on Steam and unavailable on Linux and Mac. Dungeons and Legends aren't available on Mac. In a strange twist, Education Edition, which is just Bedrock Edition with classroom oriented features, is available for Mac though.

atocci,

I, for one, am curious as to what products I could purchase from Lockheed-Northrop-Boeing-Pepsico

atocci, (edited )

What the other comment said, but also for an example of a Godot game on Switch, check out Cassette Beasts!

atocci,

It's so much fun, I legitimately enjoyed it more than the last few Pokémon games. I haven't enjoyed a monster collecting game that much since Heart Gold and Soul Silver. Highly recommend it.

atocci,

A big win for the Minecraft community. The wiki experience had gone seriously downhill after Fandom took over.

atocci,

Wasn't Undertale built in RPG Maker?

Stadia's death spiral, according to the Google employee in charge of mopping up after its murder (www.pcgamer.com) angielski

A statement from a Google employee, Dov Zimring, has been released as a part of the FTC vs Microsoft court case (via 9to5Google). Only minorly redacted, the statement gives us a run down of Google's position leading up to Stadia's closure and why, ultimately, Stadia was in a death spiral long before its actual demise....

atocci,

TIL Fuchsia hasn't been killed quite yet.

atocci,

Yes! Nest Hub devices run it

atocci,

How did the Kinect factor into things in terms of power?

atocci,

It's very pretty, but I'm looking at the forest screenshots and something about it feels... flat? I think it's the leaves, there's no light going through them. Light looks like it's shining on one side but there's no glow coming through on the other.

atocci,

Thank you! I was trying to remember the term for this so I could pull up some good examples. I know Red Dead Redemption 2 has it on foliage and skin. Forza Horizon also has it on foliage and also does it really well on the plastic track in the Hot Wheels DLCs
