What’s preventing you from installing Asahi Linux?

Step 1: Apply math

Step 2: No more bubbles

Glad to see CRTs are still alive and well in the future… or are they?

Lemmy isn’t listed as a Reddit alternative. I wonder why that is.

They are also recommending PrivacyTools.io, which had a nasty takeover and started selling ad space. Privacy Guides is the better site.

BeOS, OS/2, NeXTStep, DR-DOS, CP/M, BASIC, Xenix, SGI’s UNIX (IDR the name) all died pretty suddenly

And yet the mergers still went through

Can confirm the remake works great with Proton

You say that, but not all art is made solely for money. Just take a look at the indie scene (games, music, film, TV, etc) as an example.

Wonder how much it cost to make Candy Crush. The profit margins must be rediculous on something that isn’t even an original concept and is filled with ads.

Has King even made anything other than Candy Crush? Seems like they’re just a shitty mobile game company.

Symphony of Destruction - Megadeth

I am Jesus - Nostalgia Critic

The forced arbitration EULA, ads on the homescreen, and prevention of installing your own apps didn’t already convince you?

What an apt analogy.

Yarr. From what I hear, ZA/UM fucked the developers hardcore. Not too sure of the details because I’ve been trying to avoid spoilers.

Wonder if there’s a way to pay the devs directly.

TIL it was in the works to begin with. Still haven’t played the first one, though

It’s got a fully independent search index according to the README. SearxNG, LibreX, LibreY, etc. just takes results from multiple search engines and combines them.

Hopefully they hire someone compitent this time who can reverse engineer the original PS1/PS2 code. The SH HD Collection and the recent Metal Gear Solid Master Collection both turned out terribly.

Konami famously lost the original source code for the original Silent Hill games, which is a big reason why the HD Collection turned out so terribly, along with hiring Hijinx, who was an unproven development company.

Historically, Konami has shown that they care more about money rather than art. I don’t trust their efforts are going to be any better this time around.

Also, I’m pretty sure PS4 and PS5 both have PS1 and PS2 emulators included in their OS, so they could just release the original versions on those consoles if they so chose. It would leave out Xbox and PC users, though (although PC users can already play these games in HD with emulation and/or fan-made mods to the PC versions).
