  • We have reached a peak in graphics to a point where we now need pointless ai enhancements to make the game "better" when games like Kamiko and Undertale don't need them. What does the AI even do to yhe drawing specifically? Makes it worse? Or better?

    The developers are always looking behind the scenes... I'm targeting to universally see these notifications on the devices that don't have notifs enabled for this site. something I wished to be fixed!

    Something that I appreciate more is when more important things about the site get changed.
    Thread 'DS Programming for Newbies!'

    Arcticles like this are the perfect reason this site shouldn't be discontinued. The ad system rework made it seem that GBATemp was on the verge of being discontinued, ngl.
    this place needs to have a dedicated Nintendo Direct Thread... oh wait, the editorial team provides live coverages of each nintendo direct that could be looked back upon

    So this really only shows up on Windows and Debian-based distros, huh. I just noticed that when I use my laptop, I don't see this (runs Fedora Workstation), but on our desktop (runs Linux Mint Debian EditioN), it does.

    Why does it not show up regardless of the distro? Idk, but other Xenforo sites like the Terraria Community Fourms works properly.
    I think I talked about this before, but I want to bring it up again: I wished I didn't have to see the political side of the fourm.

    starting to finally get to see how it's like to mess with disk management on Linux. At flrst, it seemed to be confusing shit (especially on Cinnamon/KDE Plasma), but with GNOME, it seems to be a bit easier for me to understand what the heck I am doing to my flash drives and such.

    I'm completely wiping (turning all data into zero) the flash drive I put all of my Linux stuff on and turning it back into a normal flash drive reserved for my review space. 32GB might seem overkill, but I want for this to be the space where I finally git gud and lock in when doing my reviews. No more puny 8GB Flash Drive for me to use.

    What do you mean with why? Maybe Firefox adding yet another anti-feature? Well… about:config is your friend for Firefox settings (including telemetry and such)

    Thanks for the heads-up. I did not noticed this crap.
    🤧🤧🤧

    the usb drive that contained my linux stuff has officially been destroyed. i am sticking to fedora workstation, and that's final. fedora cinnamon decides to not allow kde connect to work no matter my attempts at making it to work.

    One can wonder what the best internet service provider is and how much data they can give you. We use Xfinity, but I don't remember if Comcast is actually good or not. I remember the horrors about them, but never really understood what they were.

    Yeah in fact Optimum services some neighborhoods in my town, I think mine as well, I've gotten flyers from them. I'm "fortunate" to have Verizon here but everyone I hear that has Optimum service has service issues like I used to have on Comcast forever ago.

    That's rather unfortunate... I hate having to hear these type of companies having bad service, especially since they have the resources (or more of) to make them the best of the best. If we have so much technology that can power ai, then some of the resources can be put towards other stuff that isnt powered by ai snf stuff.

    I'm out of the loop as I have no ISP, but I've never had good experiences with Comcast. Days of outages, incompetent techs, and a 1 TB bnandwidth cap. But Mom was able to get so many coupons and rebates on buying our own modem that we actually made more than we paid. Now I hear Comcast forces you to use their equipment, which shares wifi with other subscribers whether you permit it or not. Seems like a bad idea.
    Imagine.... all of this time of me using Linux for the best I can do, and my last resort is using my most favorite distro of them all... Linux Mint

    Never had a single ounce of a problem using it, and its next to Fedora for being the best Distro ive pwrsonally used

    Ubuntu is nice and all, but tbh I don't know i i really like snap packages and whatnot. Heard bad things about them

    nevermind, stop thinking about changing back

    I at least have lmde on the family desktop use that instead
    I have so many profile pictures, I get a bit too insane to pick which one would be fitting for all of the sites im the most active in.
    It has changed even more. I guess I just don't like KDE Plasma as much as I used to anymore. Cinamon beat it, but still GNOME is still the best

    The scariest notification for this site is someone writing a message on your profile.

    No the scariest one is getting a DM from a staff member

    It's all Pandora's Box in between seeing you have a notification and then reading it. I once made a Discord plugin (Notice Me, Sempai!) that would eventually have custom 'ringtones' that you could assign to different users. It never made it to the latest published version. Probably no longer works.
    Back to Fedora Workstation. I underestimated Debian, and was wondering why the fuck there were so many things that aren't apart of Debian's Repos that Fedora has.

    At least I can receive the dopamine that comes when updating again :D
