    What desktop enviroment do you use and why?
  • Gaming PC: GNOME (it works fine and I don't care about much else there)

    Laptop: dwl (dwm for Wayland) and suckless tools. Ultra lightweight and comfy for browsing and watching videos. Usually at the same time.

    Day -10 of posting a screenshot from a game I've been playing until I also forget to post screenshots

    So Japanese is just... backwards? Some questions are real bullshit in Duolingo lately
  • I got that exact one about 6 weeks ago and I reported it. Shame they haven't fixed it yet 😐

    Guild Wars 2: Janthir Wilds Launches Today
  • I got back into it about a month ago, picking up from where I left off in 2019. I'm playing the stories and maps in chronological order, and because there's loads of incentives to go do stuff or collect things in older maps, there's been people around the entire time. People have been super-duper helpful to me anytime I mention that I'm a returning player. Lovely game, lovely community.

    With Nintendo Switch Online having emulators like gba and 64 etc. Would you play those versions or would you continue to emulate those games on another device?
  • I introduced a friend to Earthbound and we played it together on the SNES app. It was nice because I could watch them play and point my cursor to things, and even take the controls from time to time. It's not a bad way to play games but I have better options for playing retro alone.

  • I remember using this a lot in my first year of migrating from Windows to Linux. It was engrained into me that my system will degrade if I don't "clean" it regularly, like on Windows.

    Favourite Gaming Youtube Subs?
  • ThorHighHeels' videos have a relaxed, positive vibe that I always enjoy. He usually covers lesser known games from the mid 2000's and his appreciation of visual design, music, and aesthetics really resonates with me. My favorite video of his is the one on Mysterious GBA Games.

    What earplugs do y'all recommend? My sensory issues putting things in my ears makes most of them unpleasant for me.
  • I got a pair of Bose QuietComfort 45 recently and I'm very happy with them. Very comfortable and they work great.

    edit: after reading your post more carefully, I realize it's probably not the answer you're looking for 😶

    A border I made when I played Wizardry
  • It's the NES version 😅 The sprites make for a great argument for using shaders. I couldn't find a fully unfiltered picture online, but you can still tell that this skeleton looks a little sillier 18-wizardry-proving-grounds-of-the-mad-overlord-gameplay

    I upscaled this Game Boy boxart because no high-res scans existed online (Koi Wa Kakehiki / 恋は駆け引き)
  • Thank you. I used waifu2x to upscale the best image I could find online, then spent hours in GIMP cleaning it up manually. I'd assume AI upscalers could save a bunch of time but I did this just for fun anyway 🙂

  • The game itself isn't very fun or interesting at all imo, but I do love this artwork. It's a simple puzzle game where you draw a path from your character to the girl, while avoiding letting the bully reach her. The title translates to something like "Love is a Strategy Game"

    NewPipe | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository
  • I've been using NewPipe exclusively for about 4 years now and I'm very, very happy with it. I take background audio playback, downloading, adblocking, sponsorblocking et.c. for granted now and often forget how crippled the vanilla YouTube experience is.

  • Since the GBA lacked dedicated sound hardware, I think this is very impressive, even despite the bitcrushed vocals 💀

    So I've been playing the first SaGa game, following the announcement of the new SaGa: Emerald Beyond that will release in 2024. I've never played a SaGa game before, but I love how rough around the edges and unconventional it is. You really have to use your imagination a bit sometimes and not interpret everything literally. The whole game kind of feels like a bizarre fever dream. This "cactus" included.
