You’re welcome, I’m always glad to hear someone liked it!

Looking into it, it seems like a problem with high-DPI screens (or really small ones), not Chrome specifically, since I can get a similar problem on Firefox with the right display size. That’s not something I’ve done too much work with, but I probably should have.

Dropping this here again, because I’ve put a good bit of work into it and the few people that have heard about it seem to like it:

AGDQ does a regular Spooky Block, stringing together a bunch of horror games. That tends to use up all the big horror games, leaving SGDQ with leftovers like Phasmophobia and Silent Hill 4. Survival-horror speedruns aren’t the big tentpoles like metroidvanias or platformer speedruns, so they understandably don’t like…

That is a pretty weird interaction, I’m not sure what could be causing the addon to decide to hide the reviews. I’m guessing it’s when the review box is at a small enough width that it discards it as a useless decoration - there’s some responsive design going on, the video snaps to its native resolutions, and the…

Well, that’s definitely not supposed to happen!

Gonna take a moment to shill for myself:

The chips used in render farms, and other server-type GPUs, are the same design as the chips used in gaming cards. They might be a slightly better binning, and the cards may have a different form factor or interconnect, but the big GPU die is the same. The GA102 die gets used in the 3080s, 3090s, the A5000 and A6000…

I might buy something if they’re substantially below MSRP. Or in some cases, what the MSRP should have been - quite a few recent cards have effectively been pre-scalped.

The problem with remaking Sands of Time is that every action-adventure game since it, has copied just about everything that made it stand out at the time.

“Floppy drive emulators” for the C64 (and other early PCs) are pretty common - it acts like a floppy to the OS, but it’s just an SD card. From my vantage on the periphery of the C64 scene, it actually seems like the normal way people load software these days, more convenient and reliable, and they’re cheaper even than…

Perhaps it’s not possible to do on a PC disk drive - I certainly wouldn’t expect it to work without some hefty modification. I find it very hard to believe it’s not possible to write a Commodore 64 game to a disk from a Commodore 64, and a C64 is not exactly unobtanium these days. Even if the original game had some…

A C64, a 1541 disk drive, and a floppy emulator to get the data onto it, runs you about $200 on eBay. If you’re doing this level of counterfeiting, that’s a trivial expense.

Why wouldn’t you put the data on the disks, if you were going through that much effort at making a fake? An outright blank is an instant sign that something’s fishy - decayed disks usually give errors or bad data, not a disk full of 0s. Even if you can’t do like a perfect bit-for-bit replica, find a disk image online a…

It truly is one of the just completely iconic multiplayer maps. Facing Worlds, 2Fort, Blood Gulch, Dust2, Office, and Wake Island are just etched into my mind, to the point that I could probably recreate them from memory. I’m not even that big into multiplayer, and these are just so classic that even I ended up…

UT2004 included both “Face3", which was a larger, Egyptian-themed reimagining of the map, as well as “Face Classic”, which was a more exact replica.

How on earth did you make it through this entire article without making an awful pun about “using the Royal Wii”?

Yes. The tourism thing was supposed to be a brief side venture for the company, not their main product.

For a sense of just how vast the universe is, and how sensitive this telescope is, from that one picture...

Cygnus is well within the payload capabilities of Falcon 9. The mass and diameter are less than that of Dragon 2. I have heard, but could not find a source to confirm, that some simulation work has already been done to validate it on a Falcon 9 booster. Given that Cygnus had been pre-validated for Atlas V, before that…
