This is interesting. Looks like its possible. Both dubious sources but it looks likely that other agencies are looking into it.

“For I am just an old man, plus me balls are saggy” - Borjoyzee, Giants: Citizen Kabuto

I liked using KanBoard. Its simple and runs well inside a docker container.

Lol. “No one is playing our games, better raise prices”. Genius.

Rio Tinto is moving to solar (and some wind) here in Australia for its aluminum refining and smelting operations. Would be good if the same could be done for steel too.

I used to have a giant one of these walkthrough guides printed out for Might and Magic 7 when I was a kid. Those guides were great. I miss Acromage :(

WoW, XBL and Eve are some examples

Subscriptions to online vs offline games is the major difference from now and back then.

I used to pay a subscription to play WoW and Eve because alot of the game runs on the game company’s hardware, which requires maintenance and upgrading periodically.

Single player games that have no reason to connect to the internet other than for updates should not be locked into having a continuous connection to authentication servers and there is no reason to pay a continuing subscription for the game, other than the company’s greed.

They should release decent DLC, expansions, etc if they want to keep milking the same title (or better yet, invest in some new IP instead of swapping franchises like trading cards)

I’ve got >500hours in Timberborn on Ubuntu. Runs flawlessly and never had an issue.

Just got this after reluctantly going to reddit for some info. Got around it by using old reddit

They are also trying out old-school sail ships

Yeah I’d love to have anything near 100Mbps. Currently get 12Mbps on a good day, usually around 6Mbps. This is after spending thousands of dollars to upgrade the connection last year. Australian internet is fucked.

I didn’t play engi for the longest time for similar reasons. After I unlocked some module upgrades I tried the engi again. I consistently get the most kills in the team, unless there is another engi.

My build:

Voltaic: 2-3-1-2-1 with Well Oiled Machine overclock

40mm: 1-2-1-2-2 with Fat Boy

Turret: 1-1-2-2

ROCK and STONE!!!
