AIgent: Retro cyberpunk speedrunning platformer that is yet to release (currently only a demo is available) with a seriously kickass sountrack.

Tooth and Tail: an immensely fun simplified (distilled, if you will) take on real time strategy set in a beautiful and horrifyingly brutal world of animals fighting for opposing political ideologies.

For degraded rubberized surfaces on computer peripherals (I’m looking at you, Logitech) I now use WD40.

I soak pretty much the entire device in it and leave it overnight in the open. Most of the WD40 will have evaporated, leaving behind a film of dissolved degraded rubber and other gunk. You then use alcohol-free wet wipes to rub all that off and leave the device to dry.

I found that this approach requires less rubbing and scrubbing, useful for bigger batches. Don’t worry about the smell, it airs out in a couple of days.

Eh. Bioware died a long time ago.

As someone who thoroughly enjoyed the first STALKER game back when it released in all its buggy glory, but haven’t really kept up with the series afterwards:

Has there ever been a working co-op mod for any of the games? The idea of venturing into the Zone with a friend seems enticing. I get the loneliness and the despair were an important part of the atmosphere, but it also feels like it would - in co-op - be a much more meaningful bonding experience than the usual 4-player co-op experiences that exist nowadays.

I swear to god, every time I encounter a straggler machine that never upgraded from Win10 to Win11 - it runs faster and more stable than newer and beefier PCs with 11. Insane.

Don’t even get me started on making 4GB of RAM perfectly usable just by installing Mint XFCE. Switch to Linux wherever you possibly can.
