“Googlebook” is so close to being an anagram of “gobledegook” that I can’t stop seeing it

I don’t think anyone would criticise you for traveling anyway, if you’ve already tried to pay three different ways then I don’t think they wanted your money!

Supposedly it’s much safer than a normal roundabout, presumably because everyone’s so freaked out by it they approach it with extreme caution and don’t move quickly enough to cause a crash

Yeah this does seem like they’re asking for trouble, literally selling a card full of pirated games seems risky

The ESA has asked the USTR to classify ANBERNIC as a “superfake,” implying that it sells high-quality counterfeit products

This just sounds like an endorsement though!

Only if you want brand new games and top spec hardware. I get free games every day, and I can play them on my old laptop, my dedicated handheld, or even my phone!

Just going for a walk and filling in missing data with Street Complete. It’s like an exploration video game except I’m actually helping!

So they need brand new top-of-the-line GPUs, but they’re also capable of running on old unpatched IoT devices?

TIL there’s a “googlebook” (not to be confused with google books, an unrelated service, lol)

Seems like it’s an Android desktop to replace ChromeOS which can run Debian VMs

Yeah but if nobody can run their rubbish they won’t survive for long

The reason for the reduction is, of course, the surging price of memory.

Maybe this will finally force lazy developers to optimise their programs a bit more. For decades we’ve had computers getting significantly faster every year so you didn’t need to bother optimising your code for lower resources.

You can point GameNative to any downloaded exe, I got it working with a binary I downloaded from itch

Absolutely agree with this philosophy even though I find it hard to stick to. Maybe it was growing up with access to only a couple of games making me feel the need to eke out every second of value, but I do now need to tell myself if you’ve given it a proper go and aren’t really enjoying it then just move on, you have an ever growing backlog of other things to try out. It’s especially difficult with the live service fomo dark patterns that try to keep you coming back without you realising that you’ve just formed a habit rather than are really enjoying them!

About as Aston Martin-y as a rebadged Force India with a Honda engine

Listen Gandalf, you were going by ‘the Grey’ until last week so you’re probably aware people’s nicknames change. He was called ‘Grima Sensiblefriend’ when I hired him, and by the time I realised that may have been a misnomer I was all wrinkly in the chair.

In front of 3 world champions, Alonso is somewhere down there!
