That has got to be the worst choice in legible typesetting I’ve laid eyes on.

Saab Gripen. I believe that’s one of the Swedish camo schemes but can’t be sure and don’t have time for more research RN.

This concept should’ve been a slam dunk, and they blew it.

Any Sins of a Solar Empire communities? in c/games@lemmy.world

My own instance is fairly narrow in scope, and I don't think I can add it here. Is there a way to post a community in another instance?

As far as I remember, Dragon Age has been real time since Origins.

Any Sins of a Solar Empire communities? (ttrpg.network)
 

Since Sins 2 just came out today, I hopped on Lemmy and was wondering if anyone else around here plays it, and where you hang out?

TIL during the 2010 Commonwealth Games small monkeys roamed the Delhi streets and couldn't be removed because of religious reasons. So instead a larger species of monkey (The Colobinae) was brought in in c/til@lemmy.world

Is this the stuff that causes the “impending doom” sensation? That stuff’s weird.

TIL that in 1563, Johann Weyer argued against Witch hunts and instead that the accused should be treated as having a mental illness. in c/til@lemmy.world

I remember this guy. I cut off his friend’s head and stuck it through a mystic portal.

Psychic Tears - That’s a good band name.

Considering Starting Linux (ttrpg.network)
 

I have been using Windows my entire life, but since I got my Steam Deck I’ve been considering trying to get into Linux.

I obviously don’t have much of an idea where to begin, other than that I’m currently also trying to learn Javascript. I'd like a basic workstation I can code on and mess with, that doesn't run more than a couple hundred. Could use some recommendations for hardware plus where to begin.

Cyberpunk Tabletop Communities? (ttrpg.network)
 

I was wondering if anybody knew of any communities for the tabletop versions of Cyberpunk, specifically Cyberpunk Red.

Understanding Regex (ttrpg.network)
 

I am currently trying to learn Javascript and am getting hung up trying to understand Regex. Does anyone have any good resources or recommendations for me?

Getting Tyrian 2000 to work on Steam Deck (ttrpg.network)
 

cross-posted from: https://ttrpg.network/post/1361746

I know this might be a bit of a long shot, but I figured I would give it a go;

I am trying to get Tyrian 2000 to work properly on my Steam Deck, via installing it from my gog library on Heroic. While it managed to install correctly I have a few issues that need to be resolved before I can continue;

The controller support is non-existent. I am unsure if that is fixable, though I suspect I might be able to get around it by remapping the Steam Deck controls. Not really a problem though if anybody knows a solution I'd be happy to hear it.

The real issue is that the music is not playing. Sound effects work just fine, so far, but I don't get any music. I suspect it has something to do with Dosbox, given the age of the game in question.

I’m trying to put a vinyl skin on my Steam Deck, and I’m having trouble; it keeps wrinkling up at the bottoms of the grips. Any suggestions?
