No, CGA had multiple color modes. It could only display four at a time, but there were a few palettes to choose from. Of course, some hackers went waaay beyond and made it do 1K colors: https://int10h.org/blog/2015/04/cga-in-1024-colors-new-mode-illustrated/

Holding on to your goals is hard when you owe loan sharks half a billion dollars and they want their payday

Enshittification is not driven by the founders (mostly, fuck Zuckerberg). It’s driven by greedy investors who want their billion dollar unicorn payout and who who will risk a hundred company failures to get it.

A lot of tech companies that manage to resist outside investors are doing just fine.

I’d wager that a lot of these could be profitable, just not profitable enough. Investors don’t want solid slow and steady business. They want billion dollar unicorns.

Do they integrate with Home Assistant?

Another fun fact: the music for that ad was also stolen

I really hope that after all the tech issues with Starfield, and the experience gained with porting Oblivion to UE5, that they finally ditch Creation Engine for ES6 and just go with UE5

My local game store had a PS1 with wipeout in a demo cabinet. I hung out there for hours playing

Science doesn’t have to be slow. Politics and funding are usually the bottleneck.

All public websites need SSL.

Nothing. They should do exactly that. As usual the US government has proven that it cannot be trusted or relied on.

No, this is about the official remaster from Bethesda

My personal pet theory is that these weirdo’s are just afraid of dying. Christianity is fundamentally a death cult. Die now and get rewarded in heaven. But these extreme evangelicals found a loophole: the rapture. During the end times god saves all the true believers. Boom, a one way ticket to heaven without having to die. So these lunatics are actively trying to make the end times happen so they don’t miss out and they don’t have to die.

Get a Roborock. I love my S7 vac + mop. I have two long haired cats and a kid. It’s awesome!

I think they are working on DRG: Rogue Core: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2605790/Deep_Rock_Galactic_Rogue_Core/

What is a good open platform for the tech business? My corp want to go full Teams, which sucks even more than Slack. At least most tooling has a Slack integration of some sort.

Read the article. The CMA found they were not dynamically priced. Just unfairly.

Most distros have automated updates, or ask to update on power-off. Debian and all derivatives do. As for major updates, I do those for my tech illiterate family. It’s not like they can do that themselves, but they wouldn’t be able to upgrade Windows themselves either.

On the flip side, I’m older and have kids now. I love that I can game online a few times a week with friends, because I don’t have time for old school weekend-long LAN parties.

Is it LAN parties you miss? Or being young and having more free time than responsibilities and common sense?

Also, I want LAN parties back.

Be the change you want to see. My office has a LAN party once a year. There’s also consoles and board games for the non-gamers. The boss orders spare ribs for dinner and we do sone kind of fun pub quiz thing. It’s a lot of fun.
