I don't get the joke. Wouldn't you need to study the architecture of the alien CPU to see what registers it uses if any and where data goes, and what format the data is expressed in (is it even binary?) so you can write an assembly language for it? Then you would need to write a compiler and then you could get a higher level language going and port Doom. Are we assuming that the alien computer just runs our code?

Would get the Mac mini and upgrade the ram instead

Making landfill mining profitable needs to happen for capitalists to want to do it so I guess this is good for now

Those were rough days. I started with Dapper Drake but there was no way to actually get my trackpad drivers until 8.04. Kudos for sticking with linux

You don't mess with women, but you especially don't mess with women in stairwells! Dude needs to get the Tony Soprano treatment.

RuneScape did it pretty well for sure yeah I always felt like there was a good level progression for items like at level 60 in old school bronze items were just straight up trash lol

It's such a trash game mechanic because it forces realism where there is none. You have faster than light travel in your game? Why don't you have teleporters? You have magic in your game? Why don't you have a Bag of Holding? If you are going to impose the constraint on the player for balance or gameplay reasons then at least make it fun, have a mechanic that is interesting in some way. Maybe teleporters and bags of Holding are expensive to build or don't get unlocked until you collect 10 flippityboos but at least reward progression and picking up objects and don't turn every decision into agony.

Good article. The crimes that were done against black communities to make the white boomer lifestyle possible need to be laid out, even if nobody who did this saw accountability during their lifetimes, reparations should be made. Within my parent's lifetimes, apartheid was the law in the USA. We haven't even begun to truly account for what happened.

I am wondering if any of the knockoff brand enameled Dutch ovens are as good as the Le Creuset one because I tried my aunt's once and it was pretty good but I can't afford that.

Paying for Real Debrid puts them in a legal grey area/they do log your IP. So use a VPN.

It's so delicious to see this after so many months of endless RTO propaganda
