Started getting a little more into MC recently and decided to continue ReIndev. As someone who didn't play much back in the beta days, I really like the way old minecraft does certain things such as food and no sprinting.

LOL! I really wanna see this!

I agree with you, but you know how Apple operates, slapping a shiny new name on an already existing concept and making it sound premium.

Seriously, I don't know why people are so obsessed with creating pointless discord servers. Is it really that hard to host files elsewhere?

[-] DrownedAxolotl@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago

You may not, but you'd be surprised with how many people didn't even care about WEI, let alone whatever the reasonable option will be

Understandable. I also had a weaker PC until recently and love what Linux was able to do with it even though I haven't personally tested Alpine. Your rice is also really beautiful for such a minimal system.

I'm curious: What made you choose Alpine specifically and what were you using before?

[-] DrownedAxolotl@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago

Thanks! It's still a very early version since I just started my playthrough, but hopefully I'll have something more impressive to show off soon.

It's a modified Indev with many changes with the most notable being new biomes and tree types, backported creative mode with sprinting, picture mode, redstone replaced with a gear system and many new contraptions, throwable dynamite you can use to launch yourself into the air, placable slimeballs you can kick around, revamped nether with no ceiling, new monsters to make the game more scary and others.

Yeah, no way that's gonna happen. They're never gonna kiss those Windows licensing fees goodbye. If anything, they'll double down and make it a subscription. Linux is too free for Microsoft and their shareholders.

Nice! You actually managed to make a decent game out of a funny sounding title. It's weird, because for a second after reading the title, I had to do a double take.

Rest assured, I'm pretty confident that won't be the case. While web apps certainly have gained their fair share of popularity, some things still need to be localized on your machine. Chrome OS is just proof of that since it has really taken off after it had forgone its original goal of being fully web based. Last I checked, it even had Steam working allowing you to play games on YOUR computer. Also, keep in mind if your fears did come true, Microsoft would have to run a cloud instance for every single computer running windows on the planet at the same time. This might just be my optimism and faulty assertion, but I don't think that's something they would want to do. A subscription based OS is likely, though.

First off, I highly doubt the 'cloud only' rumors are true. By definition, an operating system must help the machine itself operate. The only way I see something like that being feasable is if the extra app bloatware is web based, which I certainly wouldn't complain about.

I currently use Linux quite heavily and have a Windows 11 VM on my desktop for all my unsupported software. I am using the Ghost Spectre version and I'm enjoying it quite a lot, it actually makes Windows a good experience. As for 12, I'll wait and see what it's like and decide then (for my VM, not bare metal).
