Maybe the same as tourists driving in the US without US licenses.

Which is great if you get to reap the rewards, but not when you're a salaried employee who will be laid off when the project's over.

Imagine never experiencing something like The Godfather because you can read.

I highly recommend the audio book. I feel like it adds something extra over reading the text, which is unusual. No spoilers.

A million times this! I haven't re-read it once, and I started in the 90s. This book series hada big impact on me. I named my son after a character, in fact!

Now it's been like 20 years since the last three books came out I think I can read it almost fresh again. Obviously I know the major plot points, but I bet there's so much I've forgotten.

I know why you included both, but saying "1 adb command" and then posting two is funny to me.

How much does it cost if οne person imagines it, generates an image, shares that, and 10k people see the image, and avoid imagining it?

The company I worked at got acquired by a big tech company. We're switching from Google suite to Microsoft, Mac to Windows, Slack to Teams, etc. It's pretty painful as transitions go, and if not for golden handcuffs I'd be gone.

I'm not sure if I'll ever be happy with Visual Studio though, so I use Jetbrains Rider.

Sainz isn't even challenging Albon in the Williams...

 

I've been thinking about Light No Fire's release, and the lack of information for a while now.

I know that No Man's Sky's recent Beacon release is pretty big, but I've also noticed a bit of a gap in expeditions recently. Perhaps more people are working on Light No Fire as it matures, and gets closer to launch, and resourcing doesn't allow for expedition work.

Hello Games has a history of making announcements at The Game Awards, and I'm sure they're not interested in another hype cycle, pre-order debacle, or anything like that. So I'm wondering whether it's possible that Sean will get up on stage this December, show off Light No Fire and give us a moment at the end where he says "and it's available RIGHT NOW!"

A man can dream.

I identify as a zebra crossing.

Innocent until some guy on Lemmy says otherwise?

Oh wait, no, it still has to be proven.

Unless you were present at the time, you've seen some videos. Perhaps it's not likely, but videos can be faked, more easily now than ever before.

Proof first.

 

It appears we're going to get some LNF news at long last!

When I deliver it as a response to a request I have to deliver the gzipped version if nothing else. To get to a point where I'm poisoning an AI I'm assuming it's going to require gigabytes of data transfer that I pay for.

At best I'm adding to the power consumption of AI.

I wonder, can I serve it ads and get paid?

 

In the task where they had to count the seats in the cinema Andy Zaltzman says "one" while he's talking. That should have been his accepted answer.

 

It's just a screenshot showing Light No Fire is on a lot of wishlists.

Perhaps this is the beginning of the run up to a release date announcement.

 

With all the stuff being added to No Man's Sky I'm wondering what will make Light No Fire distinct.

What can LNF add to differentiate it from NMS?

Welcome to the Eurogamer 100, a list of video games that aims to reflect their ever-changing nature. Rather than ranking games by their influence or significance, the below list is a suggestion of the very best things you can play at this moment, according to us.

It's a pretty good list, I think, although there are a few "wtf" moments here and there as I see what's included and what's omitted.

I'll cut right to the chase. I'm playing the Aquarius expedition and I got a ship called The Celeste when I started. I fixed it up a bit, filled the inventory, and then, when I got enough nanites, I claimed the Iron Vulture from a previous expedition at The Anomaly.

The Iron Vulture appeared, and I began emptying some of my exosuit storage so I could transfer stuff out of The Celeste into the Vulture. For some reason, however, I cannot spawn in The Celeste again. So the ship, its technology, and cargo are all gone.

I have not had this problem in the past, so I'm really not sure what happened.

I can't even remember everything I lost, but I really wish I could get it all back.

I advise caution for anyone else looking to do the same thing.

 

Sean Murray traditionally teases No Man's Sky news with a single emoji tweet, but he's also used the "world" emoji in posts about Light No Fire's open world.

Keep your eyes open for potential news in the next few days!

 

Just a little informal post to say I think about this game all the time at the moment. I know I shouldn't say it, but I miss the hype of No Man's Sky pre-launch. The podcasts, the Reddit threads, etc.

I just want some news, ideally a release date!

 

I just wanted to make this little post to say that after losing my previous permadeath save after 12 hours, I persisted, and made it to the center on my second attempt.

I kind of cheesed it though, thanks to the teleporter on the anomaly, and a guy named Jeff Pesos who happened to have a base one hop away from the galaxy's center.

I did manage to do this on the Playstation many years ago, but I recently got back into the game on PC and wanted to 100% it.

Anyway, that's it, thanks Jeff Pesos!
