My wife […] loves soggy fries […] with no seasoning.

To each their own, but my god this is utterly incomprehensible to me. Might as well just eat a wet sponge.

At no point does this article bother to explain what CTF is.

FWIW, on iOS Face ID is marginally better for this than Touch ID because it requires you to make eye contact with the camera before it unlocks. If you look to the side it won’t accept the biometrics.

But it’s still not as secure as a regular password or pin in terms of forced compliance.

But which version?

Split in Croatia sounds like it’d fulfill basically all of your criteria.

Nintendo has always been litigious. I don’t understand this myth that they used to be wholesome and friendly in the good old days.

They sued Atari for making NES games. They sued Galoob for making the Game Genie. They sued Blockbuster for renting their games.

Kirby the character is literally named after Nintendo’s lawyer John Kirby.

Unfortunately this was added to the gamescom b2b meeting platform, used by actual game developers and publishers to organise actual meetings with each other at the event. It’s not a throwaway marketing email to be sent straight to junk; it affected everyone using the system for genuine business purposes.

A previous press release says they have the licenses for TNG, VOY, and DS9, and they plan to ‘deliver a deep, story-driven game that puts players into the captain’s chair’ 🤔

Love Outlaws and hope this makes it easier to play on modern systems as even the GOG version can be temperamental.

That said, the trailer here looks rushed, which raises concerns. Notice how the player goes out of their way not to actually shoot any enemies, often actively aiming away from them before firing. Suggests maybe the damage/death sprites weren’t working? I can’t imagine any studio willingly putting out a trailer of a game in that state, so were they pushed?

I think the sad reality of so many recent games being locked to the meta store is because meta are one of the only remaining publishers still willing to throw money at vr games, in exchange for exclusivity of course.

They’re still doing ‘pay up or allow all cookies’ popups, so definitely not good on them as far as I’m concerned.

 

Just curious if there are any others out there on Lemmy! Where are you based and what team do you support?

I live in the UK but I’m a Saints fan - started following the league in 2020 as a lockdown hobby and it stuck!

 

We can view all our upvoted (or downvoted, saved, etc) posts & comments from the account page, but it’s just a simple chronological list.

I’d like to be able to filter the list, particularly by community or by user.

Example use case: I want to be able to easily see every post I’ve upvoted on !outofcontextcomics@lemmy.world without having to scroll past everything I’ve ever upvoted anywhere.

 
 

There's a little globe icon added in the bottom-right corner of external links, so you know that tapping the thumbnail will open a link rather than an image preview, but in its current form it's hard to see against darker thumbnails.

The posts I've highlighted with arrows in the image are both links, but it's almost impossible to tell.
