Assetto Corsa (assuming mods are included) and Factorio (again, with mods, but to a lesser degree).

I remember borrowing it from the library back then (well, a few years later anyway), it still sticks in my mind!

Prism seems to be able to update entire modpacks, though I haven’t tried it myself. Used to be a hassle with mmc/polymc to do that.

I’ve been using chocolately when on Windows for automatically installing java (also prismlauncher, it’ll grab the temurin java package(s) for you during it). Not exactly the same as a Linux package manager, but it works well enough and has basically every app that I need to install.

I might have almost destroyed a monitor with bad XFree86 timings on Slackware once or twice. Pulled the plug on that thing pretty fast.

I’m pretty sure I used one that was terminal based, likely using ncurses. Without searching, I can’t recall the name of it, though.

I used XMPP a bit among friends, more so when Google supported it, which was probably after ICQ/AIM/MSN wasn’t as popular? I don’t really talk to many people anymore, so whatever, heheh :)

It would be nice to see XMPP make some kind of “comeback” … or some sort of popularity boost like mastodon/lemmy/etc in recent times.

At least it was during the boil? :)

I have two long hair cats. I’m sure there is some level of cat fur in all of my brews.

I gave it a try with my other Star Trek fan friends when it first came out, never played much though. I still have my cards around here somewhere!

As long as the ads aren’t too crazy (I haven’t really watched much on Pluto). Sounds cool to be able to just throw on a random episode without having to decide which one. I often enjoy having one playing in the background while doing other things.

I don’t see it on Pluto Canada, though. Oh well.

I drop by /. once or twice a year… definitely not the same as it used to be. Even remember when they added accounts, I ended up with a sub-400 uid even though it felt like I took a while to bother.

Kinda funny they stil have aim/icq fields on your user info page…

At this point - nothing. I’ve been less and less happy with that place lately, and this is just the final push. Hopefully I’ll find a lot of the same things either here, or somewhere else, or just not at all I guess.

Destiny 2 was one I wanted to mess around with a little recently, since the game itself was interesting enough to me. Got bored probably nowhere close to the end of the long and boring tutorial section. There are others that I can’t recall the name of, too. Obviously not memorable enough.

I think modern games in general hold your hand too much. Some small level of hand holding/tutorial is fine, but so many take it way too far. I’ve gotten bored of a lot of games before they actually started because of that.
