I don’t think it’s necessarily that something can’t be done, but each engine has its own idiosyncrasies and ways of doing things, and if you want to build something unique you’d still have to build all your own ways of doing something in another engine on top of the already existing ways of doing something. There is also a lot of flexibility in rolling your own engine, and it’s leaner too. Of course you can create an Animal Well in Unity, but out of the box it has very many systems that are unneeded, get in the way, possibly can’t be disabled and take up resources, bugs that you can’t fix and have to rely on the unity team for, etc. And if you do find bugs that you can’t work around and you use an older unity version (because migrating to newer versions could break things, and you started development 6 years ago) the bugs often won’t be fixed as your unity version isn’t supported anymore.

creaminstaller works under linux and can find steam games inside your home folder (not sure about elsewhere) if you run it as a third party exe in steam with proton

102GB for black ops 6, though duckduckgoing reveals to me that apparently you can just not download the story mode if you only want to play multiplayer, and that saves around 30GB.

But the joke is (and it does seem to be a joke) that AAA games only ever get bigger year over year, and with 128TB drives actually in people’s hands (not in consumer’s hands for many years but ¯_(ツ)_/¯ ) the idea is that eventually AAA studios will make use of that to increase game asset size.

I don’t think a single kidney is enough. I checked and apparently iran allows legally selling a kidney, and activists in the US want the US to provide $50k in exchange for one healthy kidney. Given the big cost associated with data center drives, and that these are on the very edge of what’s possible right now, with the best drive controller and the most flash, they might even cost more than $50k. Sadly phison doesn’t offer a retail price on their website, only a price quote when you call or email, presumably also only when negotiating shipments in the hundreds or thousands. I don’t dare to ask them myself though, i’ll leave that up to you.

oops sorry

You can even get uncracked game folders from cs.rin.ru and then crack them yourself (assuming only steam drm) using something like „steam auto cracker“ or whatever that tool is called.

You’d just copy them over when it’s finished. First into a shared folder that can be accessed both from inside the vm and outside in linux, and then from there to wherever you’d store your games.

Some repacks (fitgirl and dodi and sometimes others) occasionally decide not to install ever in any linux system with wine or proton (they’ll crash at some point in the installation), and then you’ll have to install them first in a windows vm and then move them over to linux. It’s not really a rare issue, like 50/50, depends on the repack and its compression settings and just the luck of the day. Games that are already installed which you’re just moving over work perfectly 99% of the time. I recommend lutris.

It is actually enough to twitch, as the ban supposedly only lasts 14 days. In my opinion that’s just not enough though. Genocide can never under any circumstances be justified. Every human is the same. I cannot compromise on that. Influencers like him have a responsibility to society equal to their reach and “influence” (and they truly do influence some people), and any vile comment from him is going to get many more followers than a vile comment from you. Even if he believes that genocide can be justified and that a people can be concentrated and murdered for decades and that’s okay, he should never be allowed to say it and get away with that. That’s a permanent infraction.

Surely that has to be a grift by an upvote farm owner to drive sales

tfw "rules-based international order" means we're allowed to break those rules whenever we want but our enemies aren't allowed to do the same

being out of reach of nazis or conservative christians can increase safety and well-being
