That number is specifically for the president

Yea, I feel you. Age limits everywhere, especially the upper limit, are a good idea.

I will say, I’m running in Desktop mode and using keyboard+mouse. Presumably controller works, but I haven’t actually tried in handheld mode.

GOG version runs great for me. I just installed via Lutris using Proton Experimental, no problems to speak of while playing so far.

There already is a lower limit (must be 35), just need to add the upper

See my reply to this user above, but yea don’t bother buying it if you only have the Steam Deck. Cheaper and a better experience to buy the original on GOG.
You always have the option to get a full refund within the first 2 hours of gameplay on Steam though, if you want to see the performance for yourself.

I can confirm, even trying several different combos of optimizer mods, plus running the resolution at 1280x720, it stutters like crazy as soon as you get out of the initial area surrounding the Imperial City and looks like dogshit because of everything at low or lowest.
Baldur’s Gate 3 with almost 100 mods (including optimizers), and similar upscaling settings at 1920x1080 in Desktop mode, runs better on the Steam Deck.
Since the remaster is literally using the same game logic as the original, I ended up just installing the GOG version of the GOTY edition, installed a bunch of mods, and it runs amazing. I don’t think I’m missing much in the way of changes/improvements.
- Comment on 42 Free and Open Source Projects Receive Funding to Reclaim the Public Nature of the Internet 3 days ago:
I agree with you. I just think about how some government entities are less-than-efficient when it comes to the customer service thing, and that would probably apply here as well.
Probably also makes a difference if it’s at the state or federal level. Local DMVs in some areas are, well, many jokes exist.

The idea is sound, I think. Treat them, in a way, like we do phone numbers and house addresses. Except this doesn’t ever change, when your name could. I wonder what the identifier would be for the address? Obviously SSN@usa.gov is a bad idea 😅
However, could you imagine the nightmare (on both sides) of a tech support call center for official government email account support?

lol, glad I clarified it. I was going to leave it vague and then remembered tables.
Also, yes. Markdown is the shit and I’m glad Lemmy didn’t try to reinvent the wheel!

Nah, Teslas will set themselves on fire with a family inside before it allows something like that to happen.

He forgot to give us the point values…
Child - 20 points Cat - 10 points Dog - 15 points Adult - 25 points
I wonder what they’ll offer in the Tesla rewards shop

- Comment on Take Action: Defend the Internet Archive 1 week ago:
My general opinion of change.org is that it’s just a placebo for people to feel like they’re doing something productive when they should be calling their relevant political representatives, instead.
This is precisely why I asked the question, because I feel the same way.
- Comment on Take Action: Defend the Internet Archive 1 week ago:
Yea, good point. Maybe something devised by their lawyers that could be used in a court of law to show public opinion without misinterpretation.

Genuinely curious, as I truly don’t know, has a change.org petition ever made a difference when fighting billionaires?

Shit, you’re right. That was an awful time reference for the joke… it might actually release before the Oblivion remake.

Now we get 11 years of Oblivion re-releases!
I guess TESVI is already doomed, probably won’t release until after the ice-caps melt.

We should just let them bring all these things back, make the southeast US a mecca for dinks that want raw milk, lead paint, asbestos insulation, and derailed trains pumping vinyl chloride into a biodome.

lmao, maybe we were at the same festival. I was at Bonnaroo in 2009 or 2010, watching Primus, and got handed a mystery pipe. Turns out it was opium and it agreed decently with the mushrooms 😅
