  • OMG this walkthrough answers so many of my questions. No wonder I get destroyed by this game I've been making practially all the decisions wrongs hahaha.

  • Starflight

    Jump

  • I love this game, only discovered it in the early 2000's and played it on emulator. The genesis version is my favourite and its very deep and complex. I don't think I've ever gotten very far with it, but I love the concept.

  • Except I'm pretty sure tulaberry and the gamma quadrant is from DS9 not Voyager? Whatever.

  • Pebble's Founder Is Pushing the Anti-Apple Watch, and He Doesn't Need You to Care

  • I love my time 2 but it has a pretty serious design flaw; the glass screen has an exposed edge. A minor scrape on anything of sufficient hardness will chip the edge and in my case it has.

    I can deal with scratches but these chips are so distracting. I'm very sad this flaw was not fixed before production as it's a simple fix. I wasn't convinced it would be a problem but I was wrong it chips very easily and now I have to live with it

    I hope the next run of watches raises the bezel so it can protect the glass edge.

  • The Wii.

    It is such an underpowered console, with only a handful of must have titles if that.

    But man those titles hold up. Even my little gen alphers love it and get into it. Its mostly just a wii sports machine but its still going strong even in this era of mobile and AAA gaming.

    I have a bunch of old consoles but the Wii is the only one that gets regular play without needing convincing.

  • Steam Frame is Poised for Launch as Units Begin Reaching the US

  • Right there with you bud but I dunno, its not looking good!

  • Bambu Slicer now includes Ads

    Jump

  • Its hard not to be smug as a lowly ender 3 peasant to have everything I was worried about Bambu doing slowly coming true.

    I mean... I wish my printer worked as well as all my Bambu friends, but this helps a little... this helps...

  • There are plans for bolder Star Trek video games

    Jump

  • Action Star Trek games are fun, let's be honest. Most of us enjoyed Elite Force and that certainly had some scifi horror elements, maybe without going too hard. I hope this game is good and wish them well.

    But personally I keep telling myself the perfect Star Trek game is an away mission based walking/tricorder simulator with LA Noire style interactions with characters and Myst-ish styled puzzles. Maybe something closer to the new Indiana Jones game but in spaaaace.

    I keep waiting to see that game. I have no idea if it would work though. I thought Resurgence came close, but it definitely wasn't perfect.

  • What are some of the biggest continuity errors in Star Trek?

    Jump

  • Isnt the warp speed limit part of the in universe reason that Voyager has new variable nacelle geometry?

  • Ok, so the RGB backlight is awesome 😎

    Jump

  • Good question I can't really speak to that I don't typically respond from my wrist so I'm not even sure what it offers in way of features there. Sorry.

  • I feel you on the smart gadgets thing. After the fall of pebble I swore off smart stuff and was into Casio and simpler amazefit neo type stuff for a while. Then I fell into casio PCB conversions and before I knew it I was back at basically smart watches again like the pinetime.

    When I saw pebble was back I had to get it. I pulled my old pebble time out and started daily driving it.

    The time 2 builds on the existing pebble vibe but just sort of smoothes a lot of edges, improves quality of life and feels like a solid upgrade. It's early days but I kind of love it.

    Pros

    • The screen is great. Maaaaybe a tiny bit less legible than the time screen, but easy to read in most light and in sunlight it's stunningly crisp. Not amazing color reproduction but eh, it's epaper.
    • the buttons are this nice knurled metal and they click satisfyingly. An improvement over my old time's mushy buttons.
    • It looks pretty slick imo I love how it looks on the wrist.
    • should you want them there is a decent hobbyist level of apps and watchfaces available for all sorts of things. You could also easily make your own if so I inclined.
    • there's lots of simple customizations that feel very neighborly for example letting you flip the screen if you like the buttons on the other side for wearing on your right wrist.
    • it just has that fun lo-fi feel that is kind of missing these days.

    Cons

    • I haven't completely discharged the battery yet, but at current rate I don't see the endurance target being realistic. I think theres optimizations like turning off heartrate monitor etc. Maybe we'll get there with updates.
    • while cool the backlight is not exceptionally bright. It's not dim, but I could have used a bit more juice personally.
    • there are some minor bugs. Backlight will stop sometimes while navigating the menu. Not ideal in the dark. Again maybe this will be fixed.

    Tl;Dr

    Yeah I recommend it if you're like me and like the pebble philosophy and are willing to accept some deficiencies. If you want a polished finished product I'm not sure it's there yet. It's a nice watch in general though. Even without notifications it offers a lot of unique timekeeping functions.

  • It only seems to be configurable through the app. It's under Settings>Watch Tab>Display.

  • Valve just published two guides on how to get the most of the Trackpads on[ your Steam Controller or Deck

    Jump

  • They really need to fix the bug that won't let you change from the default profile on steamdeck.

  • I can live with it.

    Jump

  • Man you know when people say they have an unpopular opinion usually it's some lukewarm take, but this is pure unique stance and while I absolutely do not share it I salute you for it.

  • Trail Mate open-source firmware leverages Meshtastic and MeshCore for ESP32 off-grid handhelds

    Jump

  • Super cool! I love my Pager, using MeshOS right now, but will give this a try.

    Hate to say it, but that AI-Gen "photo" of the T-pager is so distracting. My eyes knew right away it was wrong.

  • February Pebble Production and Software Updates

    Jump

  • Brought my time out of mothballs when repebble came on the scene and I can't remember why I ever laid it to rest. Every other smart-ish watch I've adopted to fill the role it left has been a PITA or just no reliable. Really looking forward to my PT2!

  • Marathon | Launch Gameplay Trailer

    Jump

  • 100% dude. I was right there with you back in the day. My first "online" experience was a net game of M1 over MacTCP to my buddy down the street. After it came out all my Macs had a copy of Infinity and I wasted countless hours in Forge making wild maps. It was a great time in my life. I still play Aleph One now and then to kill time because its like a warm blanket to me now.

    I will definitely give this new Marathon a shot at some point, but this gameplay is just not where I am at. I don't really fit into this new world of online experiences, maybe I'm just getting old and Marathon is moving past me for a new age. I guess that's fair. Its just hard to see as a die hard fan. Oh well.

    See ya starside.
