  • Or pay the price

    You mean getting another job making more money than you should and making bad decisions with 0 consequences? Like C suites ever face any real consequences for the society distorting behavior they exhibit

  • They didn't fully backtrack. They haven't given details but there are still questions about what "advanced flow" means and whether it'll involve Google spying on what people install. Even if they backed off the worst part of it, this is still monopolist, anti-consumer, and likely privacy-violating behavior, and the correct action isn't to go "eh they compromise a little so I'll shut up and eat my slop"

  • This isn't new information to the majority of people who care. The trick is mobilizing society to do something about it (like general strike). You may be newly awakened, but the majority still are not.

  • It's because they were mercilessly targeted via social media algorithms and targeted advertising. Just thinking you're a man you tube exploratorily recommends Joe Rogan and Jordan Peterson. It's horrifying, really

  • I'm interested in movim. They are a mature project that has been around for ~15 years and are working adding some discordy features. With those coming it seems more promising to me than the alternatives that haven't even hit a stable state yet https://piaille.fr/@movim

  • Advice on which retrogaming handheld I should buy?

    Jump

  • https://retrododo.com/ has really good reviews. Another thing to consider might be if you're interested in running a more put together OS than the random stuff that usually ships on these devices. If so the support list on https://rocknix.org/ might be a place to start.

  • Need some FREE Advice. From those who have used the Oracle Free Forever Server

  • OCI has a very generous free tier that doesn't even require credit card info. While for instance AWS has a free tier, the resources that are free are mostly the serverless stuff that only applies to their ecosystem, whereas OCI lets you use a significant amount of VM compute and even a decent amount of block storage. You can do a lot with it without ever paying a cent or having to learn OCI specific tech

  • I've had one running for years at this point. I got a month notice they'd be retiring the hardware it was on and I needed to restart it from the dashboard to migrate it, or it would automatically happen after the month. I had another one at one point that I had stopped running something in and forgotten to delete. They decided to delete it because it was inactive, but that warned me in advance.

  • Young gamers in Japan may not be forming the same attachment to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest because modern dev cycles are as long as their childhood, users theorize - AUTOMATON WEST

  • I do think there was a lot to like in the bones but the execution was just so bad :(. The combination of 90% of the content of the game being doing ubisoft map slop and the story being broken up across media made it pretty miserable, but the moment to moment writing/character development for the party was top notch for sure. I really wanted to like it but actually playing it felt like a chore :(

  • A lot of people have the hallway complaint, and honestly I think it mostly came down to visuals and sound design. So many games people love have exactly the same level design, including FFX, but there is normally enough to look at, and you don't have the "high heels on tile" footsteps exacerbating it. I'm also pretty sure a large part of it was a YouTube video pointing it out and people jumping on the bandwagon.

  • I've never played dragon quest, but as a long time final fantasy enjoyer, final fantasy 15 sucked so much I put it down and I never went out of my way to play 16 because of that.

    FF7Remake was amazing. FF7Rebirth was good in many ways but also had way too much garbage and goofy shit so I have very mixed feelings about it. Also like the post said it's a very long wait for a complete story. It also is not really an entry point because FF7 is a huge franchise in itself.

    If you take those out of the equation, the last FF games were 13 lightning returns in 2013 which I think is probably good but very different (I didn't end up finishing but not because I didn't like it) and 13-2 which in my opinion is one of the best in the series but gets slept on because it's gated by 13 (2009) which I like but I wouldn't call amazing or transformative.

    I think FF12 might would qualify as a worthy childhood formative game, which means (excluding 16 since I just don't know) the last good FF that is also an entry point came out in 2006. 20 years ago.

    Tldr; I don't know if FF16 is a worthy childhood formative experience, but if it's not, the last candidate is TWENTY years ago, so ofc young people aren't getting attached to the franchise. They're probably playing jrpgs that are actually good instead.
