1: An open world exploration game that doesn’t have combat … like Breath of the Wild but without all the fighting and with lots of short stories and puzzles.

Basically I want to be able to go wandering off and uncover ancient ruins etc without having to fight for my life.

2: Snowrunner, but with a good narrative story mode and gearboxes that actually work.

There’s so much potential to have engaging stories in that game, which could be tied into improved game structure (namely restricting truck / tire choice to make some tasks challenging in an interesting way).

So, Tux Kart?

Edit: or more old school, Wacky Wheels (I think I still have a copy somewhere)

I don’t think Farm Simulator has any combat

I’m in what was one of the greener parts of Spain, we’re on year 2 of a drought already and over the last 3 years we’ve repeatedly hit 40°.

I’m genuinely worried for the future, and it feels completely out of my hands.

I can totally see why you wouldn’t like Snowrunner … I love it, and doing rescue missions to recover flipped trucks and struggling through hard terrain at a slow pace are the parts I like about it, lol

Same thing with The Guardian, where their feminist opinion pieces were written by an actively transphobic woman for a long time after it was considered not-cool.

Well, I went and looked it up and apparently since the iPhone 4 onwards Apple actually started to get their shit together and started supporting their hardware for more than 3 years … I do find it funny though that an unsupported iPhone can’t connect to the app store at all while even the evil Google’s old apps can still get live data without problems.

Yes, it’s a 3G. In black if minutiae matter to you.

It doesn’t have maps, and most websites are unsupported even though it’s far newer than the old Android phone.

I can’t use the iPhone 3 I have in a drawer, even though there’s nothing wrong with it. Meanwhile my HTC that runs Android 1.2 still works with Google maps just fine.

I was also pissed off when all the OSX software dropped support for single-core Intel processors which rendered some very expensive 2 year old machines at work useless for anything Mac-specific.

For context, my Dad is still using a PC I built out of parts recovered from a skip in 2008, and it works just fine.

Do they last longer? I have an IPhone 3 somewhere that just decided to stop working, yet my HTC with Android 1.2 still works fine.

Most of what’s held me back from Apple products has been their planned obsolescence, where the OS was no longer supported, which I’ve never had with a PC. I’ve had my cheap second hand laptop for 7 years now and that still works fine with the latest software

In pre-op trans women. In post-op trans women the testosterone drops to zero … the IOC requires women to be post-op in order to compete, for example.

So your “actual scientific fact” is a nicely cherry-picked piece of BS.

Trans women have less testosterone than cis women, to the point where if they want to have some in their system they have to take progesterone.

So, basically, you’re just making stuff up.

Thanks, it looks like a pretty diverse range!

What good native Linux ARM games are there?

This is great, because it located me about a full day’s drive from where I live, so I’m still pretty anonymous :-)

Has anything that starts with an X been poisoned now? If I were xstore’s marketing department I’d feel a little on edge right now.

In other news this headline made me feel old, it took ,e a while to understand what it was trying to say

Itchy Boots is usually good and interesting :-)

My Garmin Montana GPS uses 3 AA batteries and it’s really handy if you’re in an area without mains electricity since carrying a an extra set (or even buying alcalines in a pinch) will get you going again!

I’m guessing your car was quite a lot more expensive

Yeah, I use a VME setup at work for data capture and it’s serviceable and reliable (reliable enough to still be working off a coax network cable, lol).

The one I had at home had a 60K-based motherboard with some custom roms and a load of serial ports … I never managed to get it to do anything useful, unfortunately
