I'm sure we remember not too long ago when rather than go with what the sponsors, advertisers, etc wanted and rein that shit in, they loosened the rules and Twitch essentially became a straight up porn site for two days. And it was already bad before then. It's probably only the plausible deniability preventing them from going back to loosening the rules and raking in the camgirl money. Disappointing but absolutely not surprising that Twitch would probably make more money from that than from the ads, sponsorships and so on they get now.

Legend of Zelda OoT followed up with popularizing a targeting button (good ol' Z-targeting) to focus on one object or enemy in a 3D space and move around it or fight/otherwise interact with it. Such targeting has been a standard feature of 3D action-adventure games ever since.

Of the games I can think of, probably Super Mario Land.

Those accursed birds outside the window... they have mocked me for the last time!

For security Because no one knows of it Why not run Haiku?

IIRC there's a workaround that involves symlinks and/or copying some json files into the Firefox folder under .var, but I don't quite remember how it works.

This is how it has to start in the US. Subsidizing free college in other countries is much easier because colleges there keep their costs under control, focusing on education and research over the "college experience", so the costs per student of running said colleges is much lower. There is SO much wasteful spending, brought about by the greed of many US colleges for the near unlimited flow of student loan money coming from lenders especially prominent in the 2000s and 2010s, that can be thrown out to cut those costs.

Not to mention that fewer people in free college countries actually attend a university, with education systems in those countries designed to steer many students towards places like trade/ag/other schools if they show aptitude in areas they really don't need a 4-year degree for or really just don't meet the academic standard to get into those universities. Millennials and Gen Z were all told in the US that we HAD to go to college to get anywhere in the world and we were all pushed in that direction whether it was a good direction for us or not. Now there's a big labor shortage here in the trades and other blue collar jobs because so few younger people have the proper skills, which aren't really taught in four-year institutions, or the desire to take on the training or effort to gain those skills. Fewer students spending four years in an expensive university and more in two-year schools or trade schools has the advantage of both lowering overall education costs and providing a workforce with more diverse skills, regardless of the time needed to train them.

I remember very briefly playing Galaxies in the mid-2000s when my college friends and I were looking for budget MMOs to play together (WoW was expensive for me and some others at the time). It was OK but we quickly moved on from it. We actually played Pirates of the Caribbean Online for the most time overall but never did find one that we all really liked.

This just in, the sky is blue and the Pope is Catholic.

KDE Neon: the stability of an Ubuntu LTS base without the snaps and other Ubuntu nonsense you may end up having to deal with in Kubuntu, with all the latest versions of KDE software directly from KDE themselves. They say it's not a distro, but it pretty much is.

This has to have been in the planning/development stages for a while. What we may not know is whether they were planning on launching now anyway or whether they moved their plans up after the editor was fired.

I was just going to comment that the wheel was exactly like the Life board game, lol.
