Yeah, it’s like they are creating a GOG seal for games that are basically only available because of the special work that GOG does.

sorry i don’t know star trek, so i do not know who this woman is (fake nerd, i know). reverse image search only narrowed it down to star trek, and there are too were too many different star trek shows to figure it out without extensive research. please feel free to impress the class below with your star trek knowledge.

It doesn’t load in my Lemmy app, but confirmed it does work in a browser.

This ain’t a photo of my own chonks. your beanbag is probably the better choice. my own cats prefer a papasan chair and a window ledge, respectively. lol

here’s a link if you want to see the comic in full-size: https://nitter.poast.org/pic/orig/media%2FGcMV-uEWsAAKKN8.jpg

For the chonks, of course

Counterpoint: both of those ideas being patented meant no competitor could use them while the ideas were relevant. And in both cases, the patenting company made like one promising example of the patented idea and then barely used it after that. Wouldn’t it have been better for consumers if we could have had loading screen minigames back when long loading screens were still relevant?

I completely agree. In my memory the third panel doesn’t exist.

The three patents—all filed in Japan between May and July 2024—draw similarities between Palworld and 2022’s 2022’s Pokémon Legends: Arceus specifically. Their descriptions concern game mechanics like “riding an object” or throwing a ball to capture and possess a character in virtual spaces.

Wait…so the patents didn’t even exist when Palworld was released into EA? or am I missing something?

That’s what has kept my partner on x. They also go on way less frequently than they used to, but there’s still some fandom stuff that is only there.

Paradox posted this the other day: https://www.paradoxinteractive.com/games/cities-skylines-ii/news/traffic-breach-statement

I think it’s just called “Traffic”? It’s still early days for CS2 mods, not that weird for a mod to have such a generic name.

it’s the new gaming king! Still riding high on my 5800X3D personally, that was a GOAT purchase. I know the AM5 counterparts are beating it out on all the charts, but videos like this highlight how it is still better than the majority of CPUs when it comes to gaming performance.

like what was the tech that caused such a leap? They talk about how they switched up the x3D cache configuration - it used to be stacked above the main part of the chip with some sort of insulation in between, but they found a way to remove the insulation and put the 3D cache on the underside of the chip. I’m no expert and i watched the video yesterday, so sorry if that explanation isn’t clear. Effectively, they found a way to bring the 3D cache “closer” to the cores, which shortens the time it takes for the cores to communicate with the cache.

we don’t talk about him

i know the kids hate all that genocide that i’m doing and planning on continuing to do, but maybe i can win them to my side if i make fortnite boring?

Big brains over there in the Kremlin

nihilism helps keep this one at bay for me, personally. lol

there it is again…

wtf happened in this thread while i was away

uhhh…why is this in Gaming? I’m all for discussing the new DB, but i think this should land in Entertainment, no?
