I built a new gaming computer a month ago. After a couple hours of research, I chose Nobara. It was by far the easiest experience I have ever had setting up an OS and everything has worked flawlessly so far. Even my wife who isn’t tech savvy at all has no issues using it. I cannot recommend it enough to new users who want an easy time gaming. I’ve been a linux user for almost twenty years, but I just wanted something easy that didn’t need tinkering and Nobara delivered.
This is just catnip bubbles with extra steps
I was hoping for some news on this after I noticed them filming season 4 at my work this week. Shame they’re ending it at 5 with a half season. Its the only live action trek I’ve thoroughly enjoyed since the Rick Berman days.
Ahh ok. There is actually a Durham City in the USA that often gets confused with Durham Region on the internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_North_Carolina
Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.
Actually this is Durham region. A county near Toronto.
If you think thats weird you haven’t even scratched the surface on Zuck. He actually idolizes Emperor Augustus Caesar so much that he copied the guys haircut for most of his career. Behind the Bastards does a good job of highlighting it. If you want a quick readable version, here’s the first non paywalled article I could find. https://www.businessinsider.com/mark-zuckerberg-fascinated-by-augustus-future-of-facebook-2018-9
I hope some of those US citizens includes the people Trump sent to Ukraine to chat with Zelensky’s opposition.
What about Canada? We barely ship any drugs or contraband south and yet 90% of the guns used in violent crime here come from the USA. Most of them come from states that aren’t even near the border. More Canadians have been killed by American arms than Americans could ever be killed by Canadian drugs. The problem is the USA wants to act like some paragon of justice while also encouraging instability in their neighbours and refusing to admit their addiction to guns is a cancer to all of civilized society.
Really? Everyone I talk to is still stuck on this https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/freeland-disney-plus-1.6815024 appologizing doesn’t change the fact that she’s so out of touch she thinks cancelling a streaming service will save your finances. Not someone I would trust during trying economic times.
Torontonian here. It might be worth asking, but I can tell you right now they’d laugh at you. Their boomer voting base doesn’t want to bother and they have big federal problems to worry about. Heck look at Scotland right now, some people suggested keeping cats out of conservation areas to protect bird species and everyone is freaking out. Despite being great for the environment, outdoor cat bans are not popular with voters.
You may have more luck with your local councilor. Pet issues tend to be handled at the municipal level. Even your MPP would be a much better choice, assuming they aren’t conservative. However if you really want the situation fixed anytime soon, you’ll need to either get help from a charity like the Humane Society or take care of it all yourself.
I’d recommend Childhood’s End by Arthur C Clarke. I first read it at that age and its been my favourite sci fi short read ever since.
I’ve been asking people this a lot lately just to be sure there’s no fascists in my orbit. Thankfully everyone has answered Nazis so far.
I don’t recall saying anything about even attempting to change his behaviour, anyone with half a brain knows that’s a lost cause. The point is being a thorn in his side. He clearly cares or he wouldn’t invest the time and money into these games.
This goes against the TOS for both games. If you play either, I highly recommend flooding them with reports on that. It would be great to see him banned. He’ll probably just set up a new account and start again, but it’ll cost him and you know he’ll keep cheating so you can just rinse and repeat.
I know, but it feels like review bombing when you type one out on every platform you can find in a few hours in a fit of rage and disappointment. I feel swindled to such an extent that Capcom is now equal to EA in my mind. I had bought at least one Capcom game a year for the last three decades and now they won’t get another cent from me.
The game has been out for only a few days. Many of us are learning the hard way why its bad. Because as I stated above, if you take out the sleazy greed mechanics and add a few bug fixes, the game is perfect. I was around 20 hours in when I realized the stupidity with saves and the expansive greed. Up until then, I would’ve told you its easily 2024 GOTY. It looks good, runs well on my ps5, the combat is both fun and diverse, the map is huge with very little empty space, the story is well written, and the pawn system is a creative way of making you feel like you’re playing with others despite the game being single player.
Imagine if Baldurs Gate 3 was a free to play game rife with microtransactions, but it was built in such a way that it wasn’t obvious until the second act. That’s Dragons Dogma 2. Somewhere in that code is a real masterpiece of gaming, its just been killed by greed.
When loading the game you only get to choose between your last save which is constantly autosaved over and the autosave it takes when you use an inn. Using an inn is expensive and inferior to camping which gives major buffs and costs nothing. So basically you have to spend a decent portion of your game currency as the only way to have a reliable save point the game won’t randomly overwrite.
Only one character per account too so don’t even think about experimenting. Unless of course you don’t mind paying real money to stock up on items that undo the consequences of experimenting.
So this is why I began review bombing Dragons Dogma 2. I was doing a quest with an extremely unclear objective and I thought maybe killing a certain snarky NPC would progress it. So I carefully saved before attacking the npc. Killing the npc didn’t work so I tried to reload my file, only to find the game autosaved the second I killed the npc. The game only allows two saves, one you kinda control that gets autosaved over A LOT, and one from when you last rested in an inn. Resting at an inn is somewhat expensive and just worse than camping overall, so I hadn’t used an inn within the last 8 hours of play.
I distinctly got the vibe that it was designed that way on purpose. You can revive NPCs, but the item to do so is rare and limited unless you pay real money. A lot of the quests seem designed to encourage mistakes that will make you consider giving them more money in order to fix. Its like an MBA came by at the end and editted everything in game to make it as sleazy as possible. The saddest part is that if they took that aspect away and added some small bug fixes, it would legitimately be a 10/10 game.
Behind the Bastards did two episodes on this one if you really want to learn more. https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/episode/part-one-that-time-ebays-private-211963285/
