I get why you'd suggest the previous commenter is out of touch with what users want, but what does that have to do with being a software engineer?

Does Croc have a big enough fanbase to be able to pull off an exclusivity deal?

I've had this one in my images folder for at least a couple of decades. No idea where I saved it from:

What an inflammatory headline.

He refers to himself as "Ba3" but a bishop on a3 would be a dark-square bishop 🤔

Older games are better than a lot of modern AAA slop, but not for the reasons she describes.

I was hoping she would talk about game design, or writing, mechanics, player agency, gameplay before graphics or literally anything else but she spent nearly 15 minutes only talking about tired culture wars talking points like, "why don't women look feminine aymore," "why are characters designed for diversity/inclusion first before story," "Concord sucks lol."

Yeah AAA writing is shit, please change the record so all the sweaty neckbeard virgins complaining about Aloy's facial hair can crawl back in their caves. So sick of hearing about it.

She shouts out Asmongold in her comments. Disgraceful.

The binary blobs match which checksums? The ones provided by the ventoy developer?

GLIM is an alternative that's much simpler (it just uses Grub configs) so it is easy to audit:

Please don't continue to recommend Ventoy. It has serious and unanswered security questions hanging over it, and the developer seems to be completely AWOL.
