All the good parts of Ubuntu have long since been integrated upstream. And Debian’s release cycle has increased a lot so you’re not stuck with old versions anymore.

I’m about to start the last act of Hardspace: Shipbreaker. It’s a fun relaxing sim game. If you enjoy games like “Powerwash Simulator” you’ll enjoy it. The setting is great, I hope it will expand into other games as well.

Dredge is awesome!

I loved that game and I love the setting and art, but it’s soooo much reading. And I love reading, I really do! But it began to wear me down near the end.

That’s because the remaster wasn’t done by Bethesda but by Virtuosos, a different studio.

Now you have a prisoner’s dilemma. A lot of studio’s need to take their thumbs off the scale at the same time, or you’re just sending your customers to someone else.

The problem is that it’s probably going to be hard to play without the internet to look things up

Most games today are cross platform and sell substantially more copies that old console games. Mega Man 3 for example sold just over 1 million copies and was a great success. GTA V, crossplatform AAA, sold almost a quarter of a billion copies.

You don’t change leadership just for nothing else to change. “Nothing will change” is the biggest lie there is in any leadership change or corporate restructuring. They only say that in the hope that you won’t jump ship immediately.

Dwarf Fortress is not free open source software! It’s a great game and runs natively on Linux. You can download it at no cost. But it’s not open source.

“Hardspace: Shipbreaker” is now on sale at steam. So far it feels like a mix between relaxing work like “Power Wash Simulator” and the story beats of “Papers, please!”. It’s been pretty fun so far!

It doesn’t help that the One S is an underpowered cheapo console, but that MS demands that all Xbox games must run on the One S with a pretty high FPS. You had major developers delaying or cancelling their Xbox release because they couldn’t get it to work on the One S.

Yes, Origins is by far my favourite of the series

It’s a beautiful game, but I really, really hate how you have to backtrack and kill your ghost after every death.

Let’s see what the weekend brings then. I’ve been playing them for a few days now but so far they have been pretty trivial.

I’m into Elite Dangerous at the moment. I got a cheap second hand X52 hotas and I set up head tracking with OpenTrack and a webcam. It’s pretty immersive and fun!

I’ve been playing Foundry on a shared world with a friend. It pretty fun! Our factory is a giant spaghetti mess that barely works though.

I’ve also been playing Elite Dangerous. I bought a cheap second hand X52 hotas and I set up head tracking using my webcam and OpenTrack. It’s a fun way to fly!

There’s a Dutch rapper called Typhoon who can rap but speaks with a stutter

Ed Sheeran, Elvis Presley, Miss Montreal, Noel Gallagher, they all stutter when speaking but not when singing.
