Why would you give your new software the same name as an established and widely used software?

Huh, that's actually more expensive than I'd have thought for a single bulb, even taking into account that you'd probably only be running it for a quarter of the time

Three games from three different sources, you're spoiling us today!

At the heart of Yokoi’s design philosophy lay a concept he called “lateral thinking with withered technology.” Yokoi’s design philosophy can be summarized as an approach that emphasized finding novel uses for existing, inexpensive technology. His philosophy arguably runs counter to conventional game industry wisdom where newer, flashier, cutting-edge technology is (assumed) better.

I think this is still Nintendo's philosophy. I see a lot of people complaining that the Switch is "outdated hardware" compared to PlayStation and Xbox, not understanding that they're not trying to make the same thing.

Thanks, I should really stop just skimming the tags for my descriptions! I guess they go with whatever they can get a good deal on; there are a few others that are probably still available that at least claim to be point-and-click adventures.

You're closer than you think!

Douglas Adams wrote in the notes accompanying the published volume of original radio scripts that he wanted Slartibartfast's name to sound very rude, but still actually be broadcastable. He therefore started with the name "Phartiphukborlz", and changed bits of it until it would be acceptable to the BBC.

I don't think they dropped him too early, I think they promoted him too early. He only had half a season at Toro Rosso before being thrown into the deep end and being judged directly against Max Verstappen! It would have been interesting to see how he developed if he had a similar progression to Russell, with a few years in the slow car to get a feel for F1 before the promotion.

Steal lore from Shadowrun, they've already fleshed out the details for you!

and that's why they invented Docker 👈😬👈

Oh wow, not really a great review of the developers' desire to support their game!

You're welcome :)

Really? I only recall Crofty saying it once at the start when it appeared on screen and then making a joke about how much of a mouthful it was. Maybe I just blocked the rest out!

So much for yesterday's rumours!

It's been a few years since I tried it out but I think following these instructions on an Ubuntu machine worked without any problems. From there you just copy the binary to your Deck and add it as a non-Steam game as normal (making sure to use the Linux runtime rather than Proton).

Same, I'm wondering what this brings that you can't already do

Well then happy birthday from me, the internet man

What broadcasters are you watching who might say the full name more than once?

Not if you let the physicists get their way!

Police hope the device will be harmless to humans and other devices.

Hopefully fine o_o
