So does this mean my harddrive or motherboard shit itself? I may end up buying a new pc (again) rather than opening this thing up because it doesn't have any hardware bays and tearing the whole shell off seems like it'd be a gay pain in the ass. L-...LOL!

It's a-I think-8 year old "desktop replacement" laptop by Sager that had a lot of issues even out of the box so I'm not surprised if it's fucked and I don't think it's worth doing more than the bare minimum to resuscitate. It wouldn't work at all until I'd installed Linux on it as a stopgap

I have two other laptops but one of them is too underpowered to even play 15+ year old 2D turn based games and the other one I don't want to risk damaging the many ports currently in use by moving it all the time.

What do you lads think?

Linux actually plays most of my library, well over 90%, even what AAA titles I have, thanks to based Gaben.

Part of me wishes computers and such were harder to use in the general sense, seeing the harm such accessible technology has done to the mass man. From my history using MS-DOS at a young age I would have been able to figure out Linux to some degree in my prime, even if I've become spoiled by other options today (along with my declining mental faculties due to age. L-...LOL!), the only people who'd truly be filtered would be women, Gen X boomers and the people from countries I don't like heh

I know Pandora's Box isn't closing ever again I, like many others, miss those cheeky days where only the highest life forms had access to the mysteries of the machine

A friend of mine unearthed an old game he worked on many years ago a bit before I met him, and I thought it would be fun to actually put some effort into making it a real thing. A lot of the "ideas" are there already (naturally that kind of shit is the fun part) so there's a nice template to work with, but a lot of the gameplay elements as-is are just not well balanced and often kind of nonsensical; the product of a few drunken cram sessions.

In its present state it's very naive but I think if you peel away some of the extraneous stuff and finesse it a bit it has some potential. I will take some notes on the project as it progresses here in generic terms and share my thought process-as well as accept advice and suggestions on top of that.

Have you ever done anything similar? I often thought about things like this and even made a few games as school projects in elementary school (they were shit, but hey), I wouldn't be surprised if many of us have done similar as a hobby.

I'm not sure I have a clear idea of how this game works, but centering the game around a target that moves every round sounds frustrating, especially when it's something the players need to keep track of themselves since it isn't automated.

 No.100288

>>100284
Think of a round like a race with a start and "finish line". The Target moves first and at a simple static rate (preliminarily I'll say it moves "3 Spaces" whereas the players will move in a more erratic fashion that will mathematically average to keeping at near pace to the Target). The Target follows a stable path but will end up getting manipulated by Player actions and abilities; the round ends either when the Target "passes the finish line" or perhaps after a certain number of turns.

Nothing is set in stone so some of this stuff could be tweaked. Maybe the Target has a head start of a few spaces, maybe it starts in the opposite direction, really could arrange it in multiple ways but I'm going to try and stick closest to the original vision for the time being. Well, actually in the original it used a grid movement system but that to me seems to make it inherently overcomplicated and unnecessary given the nature of the game

I can't remember where I heard it but I thought it was something like uncompressed audio specifically driving up the file sizes of modern games to comically inflated levels. I'm not sure if a study has ever been done but I'm pretty confident most people can't tell the difference between a higher bitrate .mp3 and a completely uncompressed .wav or whatever (and I wouldn't be surprised if many people who insisted they could do so were among them).

This has to be intentional collusion with storage hardware companies, nothing else explains this kind of negligence, does it?

Haha, I am such a first-world civilized white collar citizen-cosmopolite - I don't do heavy labor, so I have more time and the hygiene and cleanliness is my top priority. I do have to emphasize that I shower, it's not just about a basic comfort. There is nothing like a shower in the morning, every morning. I take a shower every day, to be clean. 2 times a day at least, but normally 3 or 4 times a day. Hot shower. I need to remind you that I am taking a quick shower. I am beautiful. Cold shower. Quick shower. You know where you can find me. Exactly. I don't do anything else really, but shower, dry and and change. Always in a towel or bathrobe. I haven't showered for 4 hours, you know what that means - time for a quick shower. I need to be moist again. I need to be clean. So clean, such a first world white collar social classfsdfafsdfsdf

His wife, Jackie Shroyer, was arrested in connection with the death in November and is accused of forming a murder-for-hire plot.
