If screworms went extinct there wouldn’t be any animals starving… same with a lot of pests. guinea worm for example.

the games will still run at 1080p, or 720p but be upscaled to 4k using dlss, xess, or fsr

Stalker Anomaly is available to download for free on moddb.com, and its actually a modded version of the original games. but GSC has allowed them to redistribute the game for free.

I am pretty sensitive to stutter and 1% lows, so maybe I’m just being nit picky. what fixed it for me was downloading a complete shader cache for the games I had stutter problems with.

The steam deck just barely emulates the switch, so I think switch 2 emulation is out of the question unless there is serious performance hacks. Ryujinx likely would have been able to emulate the switch 2 one or two years after launch just like what happened with dolphin and the Wii. but Nintendo illegally got them shut down

Honestly I don’t see myself getting a switch 2 until its able to be emulated. and I’m buying it and all the games used so I don’t have to support Nintendo financially

I used to play Roblox a lot, and there definitely is some fun to be had on that platform but its not really a proper game developing software. your “game” is completely reliant on roblox’s servers and site, and they have control over anything you do on roblox. Roblox is a lot simpler than developing a “real” game, so I think it’s closer to garry’s mod than unity or Godot.

Maybe I’m crazy but that looks more like a modern assault rifle than a 1940s submachine gun.

Arson is prosecuted by the state unless it was carried out on federal property… They really don’t try to hide it anymore do they?

appreciate the message, but God can we please not share pizza cake comics on Lemmy, none of them were funny on Reddit and they’re not funny here.

oh, so everything a leftist does is terrorism now, but when right wingers break into the capital building by force its “freedom of speech”

part of it is that on 75% the numpad is optional, and it gives you more desk space for other things

its really a matter of personal preference, but I prefer to have more space for my mousepad and coffee, rather than a larger keyboard just for the sake of it. even if I did want a numpad, (which I don’t because I prefer macropads) I would want to be able to move it around separately from the keyboard

at this point the only thing keeping me on windows is lossless scaling, if it got ported over to Linux I would switch in a heartbeat to avoid this stupid ai slop they keep pushing on consumers. in the meantime I’m going to be installing foss versions of all my default windows software

yes, it is such a surprise that ai isn’t able to create something that requires thousands of hours technical and artistic skill to create. I would argue that videogames, being the most technically complicated form of media, are probably the hardest thing for ai to attempt to copy.

nah 75%'s are more popular than tkl right now for a reason, its more compact and gives you basically the same function.

glad to help!, I thought I should mention real quick that if you decide to play around with mods that run on both the client and server side, Prism Launcher is by far the best way to manage modded instances of Minecraft. allowing you to easily download modpacks or create and export your own. I wouldn’t use the default launcher if you decide to use mods on the client.

So basically there is different modified versions of Minecraft for different purposes. Paper is specifically for hosting non-modded servers on lower end machines, but it changes some systems of Minecraft in undesirable ways, and only supports simple “plugins”. Fabric and Forge are the popular “mod loaders”, they are made to allow you to install mods to Minecraft, which includes mods like Lithium and Sodium that massively increase Minecraft’s performance.

with the right combination of performance enhancing mods you can increase Minecraft’s fps tenfold, without sacrificing any features or changing the gameplay. I run a massive custom modpack with tons of content and graphics mods, and it actually runs better than vanilla Minecraft because of the performance mods.

The performance mods I use for fabric are: Lithium, Sodium, Enhanced Block Entities, More culling, Ferrite Core, Immediately Fast, Modern Fix, Memory Leak Fix, Concurrent Chunk Management System, Noisium, Bad Optimizations, and Let Me Despawn.

There is plenty more performance mods out there that optimized more niche parts of the game, but these are the important ones (that I use). Lastly I don’t think a VPS is necessary because Minecraft servers can usually be run on even low end hardware, like a raspberry pi.

just gonna recommend for running a server that you use fabric with performance mods (lithium is the most important) instead of paper or similar server versions.
