It was right before realizing I’m in a burnout. Too much in my private life going on, kids, housing, study, full time jobs.

The last time before that must’ve been years, but I’ve been holding it in for as long as I could, I now realize.

I prefer good gameplay are fun cutscenes. Both add value, but I preferred the newer games over the old ones, in terms of gameplay.

This doesn’t mean either of us is wrong or right, simply that it’s okay to have different preferences.

You’re completely in your right to think that. I’m also glad there’s an audience that thinks otherwise.

I get the sentiment, even though I wasn’t too much a fan of the original series. That said, while sales don’t equal quality, nor does sticking to the same thing. Changing style, direction or genre doesn’t equal lack of quality. I was quite a fan of Origins and Oddysey.

The real risk is losing the original fanbase, which did happen quite a bit, probably.

A big difference is that, instead of leaving all content behind because it was only hosted there, you still have a lot of content as only a piece of the federated content disappears (or defederates, or paywalls, w/e)

That sounds like it has to get worse before it can get better. Having trump would create motivation to improve things for getting a better candidate next election, something like that?

Doesn’t sound like a great option either. It’s not like there’s a ‘good’ option, just a ‘slightly better’ one.

Non-US guy here. I don’t get why there’s a choice whether to vote for him or not, when you know the alternative is Trump.

It’s clear Biden isn’t a great option, and there’s probably plenty of reasons not to want him. But is any of those reasons gonna get better in the next 4 years when his opponent would win?

And as an added bonus, trying to open this in “Calendar” would show up a blank screen, that closes again, opening again in “Outlook (new)” on Windows 11.

You’d think Microsoft would get the hang of versioning at this point…

I’m not sure what it is. I suppose this is the case for the heavier web-applications, but the average website (which is where my expertise is, not actual applications) also feels slightly worse on FF. And as far as I know, I don’t use any chrome-specific tricks or optimizations.

Vivaldi definitely has a learning curve. It’s great once you have it set up how you like (which, granted, is way too time consuming for the average user). But the tab stacking and tiling is so immensely useful for me, I can’t use other browsers without missing those features now.

My guess is because Brave is a relatively known Chromium browser that’s been degoogled. Along with built in ad and tracker blocking, and it’s an easy less evil of the two.

I want to like Firefox, both as normal user and as web developer, but something about it keeps bugging me. The UI feels sluggish, sites seem to be slightly less performant, and I can’t seem to get used to it.

That said, I’ve started using Vivaldi, and while it can be considered bloated, I really like the tab options it has, while also offering a degoogled chromium that’s being kept to date.

Yeah same, we switched from GSuite to Office 365 last year at work, so it didn’t exactly feel like progress

It sounds like they don’t really have a choice in this unless they completely switch up their internal search engines, right? Like, it’s a shame, but not exactly something they’re to blame for? Or am I missing something?

I like the contrast with this comment about how web is starting to do too much. I agree with both sentiments, so it would be great to find the golden mean.

Yeah, I’m all for bashing companies regarding privacy and whatnot, but this is just informing/warning you about account security.

In the Netherlands, it’s either “Jan Smit” (both a very common first and last name, but also a local celebrity’s name) or “Henk de Vries” which IIRC is the most common name here.

I also vaguely remember some old Dutch forum naming everyone Henk de Vries by default.

Warframe is overwhelming when starting it, but it’s also incredible to see what it offers in terms of content, all for free (for the cost of grind).

As someone who spent ~3K of hours in it but haven’t played it for months, I think it’s important to keep in mind how you wanna play it. Don’t continue the grind when you feel burned out, not playing a game for a while is fine too.
