  • I bought this recently and the installation and setup experience was so broken and painful on W11 that I uninstalled it out of frustration.

    Graphics were ganked (only showed the top left 25% of the screen on 4K, stretched to fill the screen),
    Required a UPlay account signup that sent me to dead servers,
    Wouldn’t use ASIO with my big boy audio gear,
    Wouldn’t calibrate using “mic” mode plugged into a DI port on my interface and on and on.

    It’s just a disaster and I wasn’t willing to put any effort into figuring out how to de-UPlay the thing and mod it.

  • With kbin and lemmy, there’s a spark of the good ol’ days, but the players are all scattered across so many disconnected grids. I’m sure there are some great communities popping up, but they may be fleeting, or instances might crash and disappear. Mastodon is good, and growing every day and also has some of that Ye Olde Twitter Feels, but — BUT! — I don’t have a lot of fun on it.

    Has anybody found any fun communities to share?





  • you realize modern browsers have millions of lines and over a decade (or two!) of legacy code running that are under constant scrutiny by actors who spend all their time finding exploits in binary executables, right?

    you realize your operating system also ships system updates on a regular, often daily basis, right?
