The Y2K issue was real, but a lot of people spent a lot of effort to fix it before it became a problem. The dire warnings were exaggerated, it was never going to end the world, but the problem really did exist and it really could have led to some pretty serious issues especially with financial institutions.
If you're the type of gamer that gets sucked into Rimworld, then Dwarf Fortress will very likely consume you.
The other users spoiler tag was fine
Are you referring to TheMinions' spoiler? Because that one is also using lemmy spoilers not reddit spoilers. So maybe Sync has actually updated to support lemmy spoilers but there's something different about how they are formatted in each comment. Here's a test:
::: This is how TheMinions did it This should be properly hidden.:::
::: This is how Nighed did it This may not be properly hidden :::
Strangely, neither of these are working quite right for me in the web client.
I’ve never heard of that type of action occurring anywhere else.
There were a couple of high profile cases in Canada a while back.
That user may be using Sync, which last time I checked only supports the reddit style spoilers.
I once experienced a site just silently truncating a password that was too long. Such a ridiculous thing to do. It was several years ago, gaming related. I think it might have been Ubisoft, but I'm not sure that I'm remembering that correctly.
The sword fighting becomes way easier once you unlock some skills through training. The first time I played I didn't know about the training and it took me way longer than it should have to figure it out. Maybe you already know about that, but just in case you missed that like I did at first, thought I'd mention it.
As long as it continues to be sold on store shelves, it's modern enough to count.
I've started carrying it more recently during times when money is tight. Helps me keep from overspending.
Even us elder millennials often don't carry cash. I'm so elder, I might as well be gen-x. And until recently it had been years since I carried cash.
I can't see the name Crash and not think of the 1996 movie with James Spader. Which is weird as fuck.
That deck appears to have a kickstand. It's hard to see, but it's just to the right of the cable.
All the way through your comment I was thinking, you should try Slay the Spire, but you beat me to it. Another one you might consider is Star Traders: Frontiers I don't think it has any microtransactions (it's also on Steam)
I mean, it's not a masterpiece but I don't think it deserves 20%. I'd say the IMDB rating is the most accurate IMO.
If she had ducked, she wouldn't be on the card!
You can add it to steam, it's free and dlc bought from ea works with the steam version.
I find it's easier to get the ea version running though, so I usually just add the launcher as a non steam game, and that works fine too.
I should really have said "While 'any' may be a better word choice..." since I didn't know the context.
While "any" would be a better word choice for this sentence, either can be used for more than two options. It's just not very common.
My bet, A youtuber discovered the game and made videos that did reasonably well in the indie audience, then other youtubers picked up and it snowballed some. I've been seeing more coverage of the game on youtube for a couple of years now.
That game's closer to 20+ years old. It's been a very long time since I've played it. It was way back when gaming on Linux was mostly limited to games that had a native Linux release.
PSA: Significant Lae'zel Bug [SPOILER]
I somehow got into a state where Lae'zel couldn't be interacted with. I'll put the rest in a spoiler tag for those that don't want to know the details.
spoiler
Lae'zel woke me up during the night and challenged me to a fight because she couldn't stop thinking about me. She was down bad, lol. Anyway, I agreed and killed her dead, then revivified her. Well, that broke her. From then on I couldn't talk to her, couldn't interact with her at all, and she wouldn't join combat.
When I got into a fight, she remained outside of the fight and could act with impunity. I was literally able to take control of her and go up to each enemy and kill them dead without using any turns. This is obviously very broken. So beware.
Luckily, I was able to resolve it by loading a save from before the fateful event, and only lost an hour of progress.
Spoilers Not Working in Sync
Lemmy doesn't do spoilers the same way that Reddit does. Sync appears to still be using the reddit style of spoilers, i.e. \>!spoiler!<, however on the web-ui those are visible to users, and the spoilers that web users use in the editor which look like this:
```

spoiler goes here
```
Aren't hidden in Sync. Consider this a PSA for users of Sync that may want to avoid spoilers or avoid spoiling others. Personally, I'd like to see \>!spoiler!< supported more widely on Lemmy, but in the meantime this should probably be addressed in Sync.
