I so rarely have an excuse to quote the FARs that I couldn’t resist!

FAR 91.15 - Sec. 91.15 — Dropping objects.

Not sure why everyone got so worked up about WW1, if you got killed you could just respawn!

Don’t feel bad, it just means we’re ethically obligated to spend all our money on videogames and anime!

It seems like most of the major complaints about poor performing games, most recently Nier: Automata, are from games clearly designed for the 360 and ps4 first, then ported to PC.  A game designed from the ground up to be a PC graphical powerhouse tends to be more forgiving of hardware than a console game with some…

I had always assumed you get a free bag of meth with most purchases, per Florida state law.

You had me at System Shock as hell.

I believe all of the doom 3 source code is online. And others from id (wolfenstein 3d!). And things like the unreal engine source code is free to look at. If you’re curious at seeing how games can be structured.

I meant worst as in oldest.

I was halfway through this article before I abruptly remembered I played this game! Completely forgot, and it all just came rushing back, what a weird feeling. Never finished so this is probably the worst of my backlog.

If you’re starting from nothing but some concept and concept art, I think you can easily burn 6 months to a year in an R&D and prototyping phase before you REALLY have a handle on what you can and can’t feasibly do, what tools and technology you can employ, and how much manpower and time you need. I think many KSers…

I’m still curious about your virus. There’s no way running an exe can mess with the bios, right? Rendering the os unbootable is easy, but what can it do to take out a power supply?

Fortunately it’s moving away from that and more towards customization with RGB stuff. Which means components out of the box are black and grey so as to not clash with any potential scheme. Hell, I was pleasantly surprised to find my new g.skillz ram didn’t look like a ceremonial Klingon weapon this time. Of course I…

In that amount of time you could probably program a robot to physically manipulate your controller to do this, and probably learn something. Past a certain point the battles must all be holding O

They are, but they don’t redirect from the http site. Get the https everywhere extension.

Lifehacker is extremely pro vpn. They are anti-sketchy free VPNs. Nothing is free, if you’re not paying money, you’re paying another way.

Yah, having to download a whole backup from an online backup service must be brutal.

Oh, definitely. Synching can help if something happens but there are lots of things it can’t protect you from (including yourself!).

If your data is important enough that just wiping your drive and starting over is a scary idea, then you should have a proper 3-2-1 backup system in place. Then ransomware is just an inconvenience.

That’s the nora protector armor.
