It’s probably not the reason for everyone but where I live, tap water has a slightly rancid taste and bottled water used to taste like it was mixed with bleach. I used to not drink water because I thought that all water tasted like that but then we got a cheap water cooler about four or five years ago and the water from it tastes much better. So, I’ve been drinking water from a water cooler ever since.

I don’t intentionally use it to keep track of the games I’ve played but I’ve been using GameFAQs to keep track of older console games I have not yet played. It’s not perfect for this as I need to use documents to keep track of some additional information but I have yet to find a better alternative.

For PC games, some of the platforms I use, like GOG and Itch, actually have built in features to help me to keep track of what games I haven’t played yet. For the others (and mobile) I still have to use documents to keep track of this as well.

Is it not fully compatible with newer versions of Linux? All the gameplay and comparison videos I’ve seen look identical to the Windows version. I’d test it myself but I’m pretty sure my computer doesn’t have the hardware to run it even on low settings.

Is the EULA also applicable to the Linux version, assuming that Aspyr did actually port the game to Linux and not just use Wine or something?

I don’t use protective cases with any of my phones. I’ve read that phone cases can cause them to overheat, as they trap the heat in and seeing that my phones already get pretty hot after most gaming sessions, I just don’t use them.

I do, however, have pop sockets for all of my phones and when I leave the house, I always carry my phones in a purse when I’m not using them.

This list is pretty cool but unfortunately for me, most of my devices aren’t listed. Two of them are listed but the specified OSs aren’t being actively updated anymore and most of the features are labeled as not working or untested.

Something that I’d like to see is basically something similar to “Anime Plus” but for GameFAQs.

If you are not familiar with Anime Plus, it’s essentially a companion app for MyAnimeList. You put your MAL account in and it generates a temporary profile for you that contains several useful features, such as a list of anime/manga that you may have missed and recommendations for other anime/manga.

Seeing this pains me, especially considering Id Software’s history with Linux. Prior to being bought by Bethesda, most of Id’s games had official native Linux ports. Even Doom 3 had a native Linux port, it doesn’t seem to work anymore but there are source ports like Dhewm3 available for it.

Yes but the problem is with Square Enix themselves. For some reason, they have the mindset that the only remake that would sell is FF7. This is the reason why they’ve been working not just two completely different remakes of the original game but also remakes of the sequels and prequels, along at least one new game that takes place in FF7’s universe. A remake of any game prior to FF11 would sell well but they exclusively chose to remake FF7.

They wouldn’t even have to go as far as they did the FF7 remake. They could easily remake one of the games in the style of something simpler like either Crisis Core or FF12 and it would probably sell very well, especially if it’s decently priced.

I know that Reddit does (at least it did back when I still used it) but I’m not sure about Lemmy. I know that Lemmy does have bot accounts for other purposes, so I guess it’s not impossible but I haven’t heard of or seen one here.

Do you remember what platform(s) it was on? There are a bunch of games that come to mind but none of them have everything you’ve mentioned.

Mobile gaming. I still kind of hate it but after finding some good games and using emulators, I’ve grown to except it and I do actively play games on mobile now.

On older android devices, I immediately enable developer mode so I can enable “force GPU rendering”. You’d be surprised how much of a difference it can make when games are unoptimized and don’t use the GPU to render anything. For some reason, this setting was removed from newer versions of android.

I’ve haven’t used it before just now but the Android version of Firefox has an extension called “MobiDevTools” on their extension store. It has various web developer tools, including a developer console. For some reason it doesn’t seem to open when I’m on the extension store but it works just fine with every other website I tried.

I know that not everyone is interested in this but I’d use it as another method to play PC games on my Android devices. Right now, JoiPlay and a few source ports I’m aware of are the only apps that I’ve been able to get PC games working successfully with on any of my Android devices. I’ve tried both Winlator and Limbo Port but I have not yet gotten a single game working correctly in either of them. Granted, I have no idea how to properly configure them, so I might just not be using them correctly.

Is there any information on what they mean by a “Linux based OS”, like is it going to be “Linux” Linux or is it just going to be similar to android/ChromeOS? I’ve read a few articles about it but outside of it being called “Vega”, I can’t find any other information about it.

One thing I’ve noticed is that I’m not met with slurs or death threats every time I post to an android related community. I always hated posting to android related subreddits because of this, especially considering the fact that the mods would punish me instead of the ones being vulgar/aggressive towards me.

So far the only thing the only “bad” thing that I can recall happening to me in an android community here on Lemmy was that a post I made was removed for “not being specific enough to android”. I personally think that Lemmy isn’t popular enough yet to justify doing that but I do understand their decision.

I recently played the GameCube version of Chibi-Robo and I was surprised by how that game ends. It very quickly turns into a horror game without warning right before the final (and only) boss.

I usually just use the website in a mobile browser as I generally avoid websites that require an app. It’s an unnecessary waste of space when the website could just work in a mobile browser but some developers, whether it’s because of incompetence or it’s actually intentional, either limit what features are available in mobile browsers or just make the website not work at all.

Yeah, I sometimes have dreams that constantly change like that, I usually don’t remember them though. Some of the crazy/weird things that happen in my dreams are stuff like I randomly become or have been a woman, I’m somehow romantically involved with people I hate or that I’m in a situation where I’m surrounded by tentacles.
