I know that resolution is 5:4, but most screens back in the day could do them all from 320x200 to 1280x1024, the pixels would just not always be square.

I don’t know if that’s the case here though.

That was the absolute best. 1920x1200.

I don’t know about that one but “before” most screens were 4:3.

And slang for coffee, which is some old tech too IIRC

“Inhale, or the fruit dies!”

I thought it was about the fit, or maybe they are molded for your ears too?

I have like slits and not “tubes” so all plugs just fall out.

I had to prove we had too many meetings (20-25 a week) to my direct manager who was in almost all meetings and didn’t believe me.

Result?

A meeting about it.

I was a software developer at that place, no managerial duties at all.

You know your history! Done 2 was the blast BTW 😋

Seems we are on the same page too.

I do have a hard time finding good indie games though (strategy, turn based, maybe rpg), I don’t care that much for polish (as in a polished game) but the depth has to be there or it’s just fluff IMO. Old game dev ranting 😅

Best ones last decade include like Hoplite and FTL but they sure are scarce.

I’d spend the evening with ice cube or vanilla ice on a green day.

Well I can’t say I didagree, you’re basically saying not very much (new good stuff) have happened since quite a long time, right?

BTW I only tried out BOI but it’s just a frenetic shooter with a theme? Battle royale is just a shrinking map, right? I didn’t know what bullet heaven was, a slo-mo bullet hell sort of thing, or a sort of moba-like with more control?

Well I don’t play shooters, so I can’t say. Don’t get the feeling they invented much since the Duke Nukem time though.

And I disagree hard, jazz was out a century+ ago, video games has still a lot to explore, why is there no “new better” C&C, WoW or even Minecraft? They just sit back and serve the new FIFA etc.

I was thinking along the lines like groundbreaking games, like when HOMM or C&C came out for example.

Yeah, is there anything interesting in AAA games nowadays?

So if say 5 persons want to talk, they have to connect to a specific address and behind that address this soft turns I guess?

How do you authenticate people?

Interesting!

So you have to connect to some central point to use it(which can be ran locally by yourself)?

Is there still crypto mining stuff going on with GPUs?

I’d say the difference is minimal though.

Second place? Believe it or not, it’s also Trump.

Thanks!
