Well at least now you can actually see the damn black ports on the silver chassis. The M2 Mac Mini has the black ports on the black backside and it's such a pain in the ass trying to find the USB C ports when I have to connect something.

But yeah, putting the power button on the bottom is peak Apple stupidity.

Nice alternative to Figma. Gave it a try a couple of months ago but the snapping was super unreliable and exporting to PDF screwed up the quality of any pictures to an unusable point. Might have to give it another try and see if some of my problems have been fixed.

Yeah it's pretty awesome. My only gripe with it is the fact that it is super annoying when you want to send a client with your self-hosted urls to a customer.

You can either awkardly add it to the filename or you need to fork the client and build it yourself. Kind of sucks that the easier custom client function is stuck behind their subscription.

What an unexpected and strange release. Though To the Moon is still an incredible experience. It's what any RPG Maker tinkerer dreams of releasing one of these days. I should really replay the game. Haven't played it since its original release in 2011.

Can't really feel any sympathy for you seeing how you willingly paid them more to be a beta tester for their so-called Early Access. Next time wait a month or three after their unfinished release for the most glaring issues to be fixed.

Linux Mint has been my go-to distro for probably ten years. Just recently helped a friend transition from Windows 10 to Linux Mint and so far she's been pretty happy with it. Thanks again Microsoft for your stupid hardware requirements for Windows 11. Makes it so much easier to get people to switch to Linux.

Nice to see that the Mana series got a pretty decent revival in the past couple of years. I am usually careful when it comes to publishers remaking and / or reviving old series from my childhood, but this time I have to admit that Square Enix did a pretty good job.

Looks about as shitty as I expected, considering the dumpsterfire that BioWare has been for at least the past decade. I am just glad that, for now, we still have Larian Studios making good, classic CRPGs. Here's hoping they never get bought up by EA or other large soulless corporations.

As a huge fan of the first Dragon's Dogma I am very much disappointed with the game as it was released today. Honestly after playing for about 2-3 hours today on PS5, I have to say the game is very much not ready for release.

  • ~~Terrible performance with an unlocked frame-rate that's between 20 - 35 FPS (give me a smooth 30 FPS and never use a fucking unlocked frame-rate on console. WHO DOES THAT? If you can't get a smooth 60 don't make me play an uneven mess such as this)~~ First patch gives an option for fixed 30 FPS, disable RT and seems to have made the main city a little better
  • Controlling the character feels like moving through molasses
  • ~~Annoying motion blur that cannot be disabled~~ Fixed in the first patch
  • bad dialog animations and lip sync
  • micro-transactions in a full price game

It's clear that the game was rushed and needed at least a couple more months in development. I am sure they will fix the most egregious problems but as it stands right now I would not buy the game. Shame fucking Sony won't let you refund a game if you downloaded it, which is the dumbest shit I've ever heard.

For me it must’ve been either one of the Commander Keen games or the original Prince of Persia back in the early 90s. Still damn good games.
