standalone? as in something like the occulus quest?

that would be awesome,
even if that means that the steam controler remains dead.

some people realy turn "never touch a running system" into some holy gospel.

i don't
i have a 144hz display, and can barely tell the diffrence between that and 60hz

he obviously meant African Swine Fever

oh so that's really what it was,
ive seen a weirdly yellow sky recently.

i thought it may be sahara sand, but i wasnt sure, because i was used to it being a more of an orange color.

its something the fastfood chain wendy's is trying out.

they dont operate in germany anymore,
so no.

the best part is the version with the flags -al

i think the issue is fundamental to the "meta forum" concept both lemmy and reddit share.

when comunitys are small, they mostly consist of people that are intrested, and usually knowledgeable enough to participate in discussion.

but as size and thus discoverability of a community increases, posts start trending more and more.

so less informed, and more reactionairy users (if not straight up trolls) that browse r/all start flooding the posts and dilute propper discourse with bad uninformed takes.

ti;dr essentially, reddit style plattforms turn into twitter for big communities.

ds2 is imo the easiest in the series,
and the only one ive managed to complete so far.

here's a bunch of tipps for if you want to try again.

once you beat the last gigant,
talk to melentia untill she moves to majula,
shell sell infinite lifegems.

lifegems are better than estus,
since you can still move, and you can carry 99.

level adp untill you have 99 ~~dex~~ agility,
for iframes on the rolls.

broadsword, longsword, rapier, and mace
are great weapon you can find early on.

ds2 (especially sotfs) relys heavily on ganksquads, and enemys as an obstacle to defend the way to the boss.
you have to lure them out and fight them on your terms, its hard to run past enemys.

you can jump on the balcony on the smelter demon boss run, and skip a lot of pain.

shrine of amana, get a crossbow/bow, and snipe the mages, anything else is pure torment.

bonfire ascetics (and the expanded ng+) are the best features of ds2.
ng+ the bonfire melentia was at,
last gigant and pursuer ng+ are juicy souls if you can beat them, and you can find mats to complete a +7 or even +8 weapon very early.
