Pretty limited when it first came out, but it’s really great after all the updates, and apparently it’s getting a switch port next year.
Definitely didn’t expect them to add Lucy from Edge runners as a crossover though.
fishbone@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Technology@lemmy.world•2024 Was the Year the Bottom Fell Out of the Games IndustryEnglish2·6 months agoI already own it, but I’ll have to give it another go. Been playing Against the Storm again lately and it’s fucking fantastic. I liked Timberborn, but I didn’t play it a ton. I think it was my first proper dive into city builders and I felt like there was a pretty strong learning curve coming into the genre, so I put it down and forgot about it.

fishbone@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Improve your Wi-Fi with this one trick2·6 months agoNot everyone went to the same school, and not everyone went to school, for any number of reasons. I first attended a health class in college.
The biggest factor for me with fonts is readability (I have my notepad++ default to verdana at 16pt font on a 1080p monitor which is my ideal). It’s probably worth mentioning that my eyesight isn’t great and I think I have some kind of brain related trouble with print.
Segoe is okay, but the font is really thin and the spacing is too narrow for me.
Verdana is my fucking jam. Good spacing and very legible at different font sizes. My only two gripes: Lower case “l” (L) being a straight line and the number 0 has no cross through it. Not major though, cause they’re still pretty distinct from similar characters.
Great point honestly. I was only writing that comment from the perspective of answering troubleshooting centric questions. Not everyone who browses the internet has the same ability to see though, and while I imagine screen readers have some ability to process images (I’ve never used one so I don’t know specifically), I can only assume that actual text is much easier.
I know that text for me is much easier than screenshots, cause I’ve adjusted the font size and type in my browser to suit my preferences. Can’t do that for an image.
If it’s for textual information, I’m personally a fan of covering all bases. Screenshot, link to site, and quoted relevant text.
Webpages can change, but screenshots can stop being hosted with no warning and any text in screenshot form can’t easily be copy and pasted. Quoted text is essentially the longterm accessible failsafe. Text in comments tends to last much longer than images or links.

Granted, it was 110c, but it was also only 6 minutes at that temp for Vladimir Ladyzhensky to die. I stand by my statement. 100c air temperature is immediately life threatening.

fishbone@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Wait, my body's own heat is enough? Always has been.2·7 months agoDunno if these fit your needs, but this is the pair I have. Had them for maybe 6 or 7 years (light use, mostly just wear them indoors) and they’re in great shape. Solid rubber sole, super warm, very comfy. I feel like they run small (I had to get a size up from my usual). Only gripe is that they had a tag on the inside that was tough to cut out cleanly.

Odd that theverge decided to post this article. Not too stoked about 850 companies asking for my data in order to see an article about predatory business practices.
Maybe it’s cause I just woke up, but reading this after being totally unable to decipher anything except the mental image of the koolaid man in a LARP battle is the funniest shit ever.

Noteworthy thing I haven’t seen mentioned here: They apparently only removed app access. The website still works just fine.
