Ah yes, right out of the "we don't care, we're making tons of money" playbook.
I've sunk over a dozen hours into it so far. It's a really enjoyable game, however it is truly in early access stage and the developer has made no illusions about that. It's playable, and largely bug free, but there's not a lot of depth available since many of the features are still in progress. Up to the release of the game, it's been developed by 1 person and he's hiring some additional staff but that all takes time to see fruition.
The graphics are beautiful, and the game has a great atmosphere. I love watching the buildings being constructed. The mechanics in the game work well, but there's a lot of buildings, resources, and advanced stages that need tweaking/implementing.
If you like what you see in the videos, and are OK with an actual early access game, knowing that features and improvements will be coming slowly, then id suggest getting it now. Otherwise, wait for the official release.
"arguing that it has harmed men and even destroyed the fabric of society."
Ahh yes, the injustice of the millennium. Abusive, asshole men can't keep their wives against their will...
Hello! I lurk too much, but I'll echo t3rmit3. This is a nice, quieter space. I check Beehaw daily but I don't find myself doomscrolling like I used to on reddit. It's just nice to pop in once a while, check if there's anything new, and get on with life.
That said, I should start posting some of my own findings!
Radish is super common in Southern California at Mexican places. They're often served raw and pickled. They work surprisingly well with all the flavors. Thanks for backing me up!
Now go make some reverse seared steak nachos ๐
Lodge's enameled cast iron pots are great. The enamel is made in China, but surprisingly so are some staub and Le creusets.
If you haven't checked out Pop!_OS I'd recommend giving it a try. While I'm using a system76 laptop so they guarantee hardware compatibility, it's been one of the smoothest and most functional DE/guis I've used. Ive never had to resort to a command line* and aaalllmost everything you'd expect to find exists in the gui.
*caveat. Except for some really esoteric problems, which are usually a result of my own tinerking
Every news article is about their Sriracha which I'm honestly not in love with. What I am sad about is there's also a shortage of sambal oelek cause theirs is amazing. I haven't found a good replacement ๐ญ
I really like this, and I will probably use it, but I hate clickbate thumbnails with a passion and avoid them as much as I can.
Dune is phenomenal but it's a product of its time (Golden age of scifi). Characters are obtuse archetypes with no agency whatsoever. Plot is used as a hammer in order to convey the authors message. Women are either passive and helpless, or essentially a male character in women's clothing. With all that said, the world building is PHENOMENAL.
I couldn't make it through Dune 2. Stopped about halfway through. I loved every second of Prelude,which is a trilogy written by Frank Herbert's son and I HIGHLY recommend it.
I'm almost always a lurker but I have abandoned Reddit on principal and come here. I've replaced the infinity app on my homescreen with Beehaw and It gives me my reddit fix. I'm more likely to comment here too, since It doesn't feel pointless due to the size of most subreddits. I've been leery of Reddit for a long time with ownership changes, the crap websites and apps, and their lack of reaction to toxic and hate riddled subs. This place is a welcome change.
When we were purchasing new dell laptops for work a 2 years ago, the change to lpddr was an oversight and we bought models with 8gb of ram. Since these are effectively not upgradeable for us, they're going to age out sooner than they should. We were not very happy...
Luckily we caught this fairly quickly at least, and it only represents a few percent of our total inventory. I hate this anti consumer design.
