Damn, really? I mean, if you have the files why not just use lutris?

I've found more options on steam, but gog doesn't make you use their launcher to play them, so you don't have to jailbreak them or sail the high seas.

I don't want it remastered though, I like the old crappy graphics.

I use my Jetson Nano in desktop mode (even set up that way with desktop peripherals connected to an SBC) because it's the only way I can have AI at home right now. I'm going to build a gaming style rig, but for AI in the future.

Anyway, it's build for inference (that's the fun stuff), so that's how I use it. If you want to make your own datasets, you need a more powerful machine, or you need to rent something like from jarvis labs....or even google itself (that would be tensorflow). I'm not gonna let these fucks control where I get my data sets from. Fuck that!

Right in the nostalgia. Place has been around since the 90's! Anyway, it reminded me of reddit in many ways. GameFAQs moderator has the reputation it does for a reason. Anyway, lots of cult like conformity on some boards, but some were fun and you could be a goofball when the moderators were sleeping.

Fuckin' amateur! I'm in Texas harassing Texans; I just caught 32 beatings, got shot at twelve times, and nearly had truck nuts stuck where the sun don't shine. Not bad for 1 hours worth of work.

Anyway, this dweeb neeeds to be deported....from Earth.

We can still make our own games, the resources are all over the place. I'll admit that I'm still not a Blender master, but there's other people and other tools.

Does anyone have any experience with IdTech 4? Source SDK? UDK? What can we do to make them work better with WINE?

I have a feeling that djinn, the fae (fairies), ghosts, poltergeists are mostly the same thing... at least the first two anyway. Plasma based lifeforms, and they can do things that would seem like magick to us.

Also "orbs" in their purest form or ball lightning. Some of these fuckers have been seen changing course to avoid windows or other obstacles while floating in the air. Really interesting stuff, but this is another phenomenon where I place it into "experiment and research at a later date" file. I see a link between crop circles and megaliths and these creatures, but it's not very strong and has weak evidence so far.

Then again, even those that research part of the puzzle haven't researched it that much either, so of course there is very little evidence. I would like to gather more some day, but again it's always so many things to do, so little time.

So....where does anyone find their wares nowadays? You know, for ethical reasons. Already gave valve enough $$$, but I still need their launcher (unless a 'source port' is available, like dhewm3).

I should be able to take my games with me across operating systems and computers.

Unless their equivalent of a felony follows you forever like US, the only other lifetime regret is that they are likely to beat the ass of whomever beat someone's ass in Singapore.

That'll stick with you!

I would, and if I knew how to crack the ime or psp, I would do that too. Anyone know high level cracking here? You'd need a quantum computer for that, right? Sheesh!

Since you have PC money, I'd go a step further and set up your own network. There's SBC's you can use to make a router, which will be your best friend. Go ethernet only.

Yup, even the outright dishonesty of it all makes me angry. Lying on top of all else...that'll do it. We know the real reason they're doing this and honestly in spite of normie gonna normie I think some of them know too. Not that they could do anything about it.

Well, I wish you the best, truly. I'm from the Southwest United States and despite our reputation.....look at where we are now. I'm not ruling anything out, even finding an excuse to get rid of all power generating stations, including palo verde. Remember, they are desperate too, they're going faster, I expect them to be erratic come 2024.

I've mentioned the Tesla tubrine before, and I'll admit that I'm looking into something called the GEET engine now because I am a little desperate. I am going to leave any secondary conversations such as ontology and thermodynamics to the side for simplicity's sake except for one thing.....the designs kinda look more like an open system. And open system on top of a closed one. Ponder that.

This type of technology is probably best left to tinkerers anyway, because at this point I'll have to put my money where my mouth is. I'm buying a lathe soon, and a milling machine hopefully soon after that.

This is insane, they're more likely to fucking break everything than they are to obtain supreme ultimate power. I mean on one level it's nice knowing that these fucks might just end up on the wrong side of the mob, but knowing that you may have to start up again from LESS THAN ZERO (the ruins are just going to be in the way, making work very inefficient) really sucks.

I really despise nihilistic sadists who's only reason for existing is taking something nice someone made and then breaking it. That and people who make nice things but then when someone else makes something nice they do the same thing, take and break. Sometimes I don't know which is worse. We're dealing with both types of demons right now.

This. And after going from step five back to two and three repeatedly, I have come to the conclusion that this conflict is spiritual in nature. Yup, then there's the body and mind aspect to consider.

This is hard, but worth it.

This is most likely going to be a controversial take here, but I really do think it has more to do with matters of spirit then biology. Whatever it is at work has biological effects. Never the less I don't think many humanoids existing today can be well rounded human beings.

That's the tl;dl version of it. There's a hierarchy here from genes, to the proteins that they code, to cells and tissues....these aren't even that well understood by people that have much more precise ways of measuring these types of things than twin studies and such. So that was an orange flag, getting dog piled by people in love with the bell curve was a red flag. I can't reason people out of things that they didn't reason themselves into.

And ultimately for what? My battle? It's not "Tyrone can learn calculus, you leave him alone!" So why argue? Especially because we exist in a time where now currently many people are essentially part virus (and you know what I mean by that), the same technology from the vax can theoretically be used as an intelligence booster...this is me pretending that intelligence is directly related to your base genes.

Yeah, I really do think it's something that flows through the dna, not IN the dna.

I remember a saying by a man named Terry Pratchett which went like this; "I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it."

Right now I'm more concerned about the box I'm in, and it's one of actions, not merely perceptions.

Can you afford a port-a-torch kit? Harris makes it, but it's sold under the Lincoln Electric label too. It doesn't take that long to learn it honestly, and you can up your handyman skills. Might be able to buy a vehicle to carry it in, too.

I'd prefer if you didn't "go". Stay...and change. I have much in common with you, I see. Quick youcrap recommendation: Thomas Sheridan
