Respectfully, what a stubborn position to take. You don't want to listen to anyone else, and you don't want to be taught any new information about it that might change your mind. Debian supports swap files and has information abou

Repackaging existing technologies is nothing new for Apple. The introduction of ads into their services, with considerations for adding more such as in Visual Intelligence, are the real concern, in my opinion. It's enough to make me th

I'm not so sure about that. Death Stranding 2 was expensive and didn't do all that well.

Kojima is infamous for being difficult to work with as well as expensive, and Death Stranding 2 didn't do that well after the already-divisive Death Stranding. I think describing him as a generation-defining artist is a bit much, somet

I know what a procgen survival-craft game is. I just don't think it's a very fun one. It's actually too easy, in fact.

NMS actually does ship "start here, finish here" content, but my main issue is that the game is terribly easy. All that extra content you're implying is there, I find to be very shallow, unchallenging, and unrewarding. In the

It appears that the go-to response from certain fans is to accuse anyone critical of having only played it at launch. I assure you that's not the case. I find the game just as shallow today every time I try a new content update. What d

What hate? What dogpiling? People are simply talking about how they aren't into the game and find it shallow. I sense a lot of unwarranted defensiveness from certain fans of the game. Having sustained concurrent players on Steam isn&#x

The comment you're linking actually says that the game "feels like nothing" and that there's nothing substantial to the gameplay. It doesn't even use the word "empty."

by vor_ 7d ago
Oh, I don't think so. The systems in the game are very shallow, and overall, everything is too easy, which makes the game feel bland. There are almost no stakes. That leads to a feeling of nothing to do because none of it feels worth d

This is such an aggressive move. Intel Macs were still being sold by Apple only a few years ago. They just released a major version of macOS for Intel Macs not even 12 months prior to today.

> Macs are more affordable and powerful that other computers since the M series. Apple has been raising prices on Macs and other products.

The point might be more convincing if prices reflected the smaller portions.

For one thing, Apple Weather displays hi-DPI animations for weather conditions.

by vor_ 1mo ago
Apple has been using the "macOS is more efficient" excuse since the early 2000s to justify skimping on RAM.
22.
by vor_ 1mo ago
Well, for example, Apple Weather has several different animations that are displayed behind the temperature for various weather conditions, such as rain, window, and snow, and those will need to be hi-DPI animations.

When?

That was standard practice in the 90s. Track 1 on the CD is the data track, and subsequent tracks are standard CD audio tracks that happen to be played in the game. If the game didn't require accessing data on the CD after installation

It was just a standard way to play CD-quality audio tracks (by actually playing CD audio tracks!).
