How does that work? The code has to be stored somewhere…
The code is stored by everyone who works on it, and replicated to various public and private servers, so you might say it’s stored everywhere.

- Comment on This is the E3 trailer of Half Life (1997) 1 week ago:
The OGs like Wolf3D and Doom did not even have mouse support for aiming until much later.
I don’t think this is true, at least not for the original PC Doom, but I don’t have a record of it handy. shrug
- Comment on /c/BoardGameArena is all about the freemium website with dozens of free board games to learn and play online 1 week ago:
You linked to lemmy.zip/c/BoardGameArena, which is usually fine, but sometimes causes issues for users who are not on lemmy.zip.
It takes (most) people away from their home instance, to another one where they are no longer logged in and their preferences are not applied. Better to use a ! link.

What shooters had you been playing that required using buttons to turn? I’m pretty sure Half-Life didn’t invent mouse look.

You are mistaken. Heroic simply uses an affiliate link to generate money for the project.

- Comment on Unpowered SSD endurance investigation finds severe data loss and performance issues 1 week ago:
I did call out data density in my first comment. Did you somehow miss that? Not all things that need storing are megabytes in size, though.
Why would you assume that paper means punch cards? Printers can store far more than a machine word on a page, are relatively cheap, and are widely available. For some things, this can be superior to both magnetic and flash storage.
- Comment on Does the 2 hour refund limit on Steam affect game design? 1 week ago:
IMHO, two hours is not nearly enough to get a feel for a game. At least, not for the sorts of games I tend to play. I spend longer than that just working through initial technical issues, configuration, and (in games that have one) the character generator.
I have to conclude that Steam’s return window is either intended to be just enough to see if you can get it running, or as much as Valve could talk publishers into tolerating.
- Comment on Unpowered SSD endurance investigation finds severe data loss and performance issues 1 week ago:
I was excluding media that are impractical for most people to use.
- Comment on Unpowered SSD endurance investigation finds severe data loss and performance issues 1 week ago:
Strictly speaking, I think paper beats magnetic tape on longevity.
Unfortunately, it loses on data density.

- Comment on After years of hearing about it, I finally started playing Timberborn. Great chill city builder. 2 weeks ago:
I played it last year. It was fun for a few days, but once I got the hang of the water physics and had a well-functioning city, it became mostly repetitive.
I wonder if newer updates bring more to the mid/late game. I’ll have to check it out again at some point.

The environment looks real enough. The “cats” look like weird demon creatures created by some entity that only knows dogs.

Diablo Canyon, California’s sole remaining nuclear power plant, has been left for dead on more than a few occasions over the last decade or so, and is currently slated to begin a lengthy decommissioning process in 2029.
So this AI is apparently not operating a nuclear plant, which would be concerning.
For now, the artificial intelligence tool named Neutron Enterprise is just meant to help workers at the plant navigate extensive technical reports and regulations — millions of pages of intricate documents from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that go back decades — while they operate and maintain the facility.
Ah, that makes more sense. I hope it doesn’t end up leading humans away from correct understanding of safety regulations.

Okay so did they go viral or are they just popular in this one small town? Word mean things
Pedantic is a word.
Also, your criticism of the author’s use of words would have had more impact if you had pluralized correctly.

People shouldn’t be treated badly in general, but “called out”?
I run into video-link-only posts in text forums on Lemmy every so often, and IMHO, they contribute little to nothing. There’s nothing wrong with encouraging their authors to add at least a summary or start a conversation about the subject matter. Without that, the links that aren’t of obvious widespread interest usually feel like they’re treating the rest of us as a click farm, whether we’re vision-impaired or not.

Have you considered making a Linux virtual machine now, and learning small things a few minutes at a time between other tasks? That ought to give you a head start when it comes time to commit.

Then you purchased a wrong game
Perhaps.
But you’ve made a lot of assumptions in your comment, and you’re mistaken about most of them.
I played the side quests. Many came with a good story, but a story is not gameplay. Nearly all of them were copy/paste instances of a small pool of tedious tasks. There were a few good exceptions, but very few.
I explored the world, as much as one can “explore” something that is fully labeled with point-of-interest markers. They lead the player to a repetitive handful of uninspired encounters, cloned over and over again.
It has plenty of other flaws as well. If you loved it, then I’m happy for you, but I found the gameplay boring.
The strengths I found in The Witcher 3 were its story, lore, characters, and Gwent. Not its gameplay.
To each their own, I suppose.
- Comment on Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how? 3 weeks ago:
An argument could be made that Gwent offers better gameplay than the larger game in which it resides.
