Not to burst your bubble, but upvotes may come from people just applauding your attempt to increase community here but who may not even play or like the game 😬🫣 I hope you do get some action, though! I am unavailable, personally.

@happeningtofry99158@lemmy.world This is what you want. I have also been using URLCheck which acts as an airlock and has been absolutely incredible. I wish there was a Windows equivalent to this thing.

I was briefly interested in this but the Steam reviews don’t look good, sadly.

Ha, curve ball deflected!

Any examples?

Interesting. Any response to that last question? I thought those were bots all this time!

Fine, *could literally be.

Let me offer a spin on this: the point-&-click adventure Technobabylon, which is more a staggeringly creative and massive series of escape rooms, and not that much of an open world to explore and revisit.

Perceptibly, it has zero grinding and is to the point with what you’ve gotta do. It is one of the only point-&-click adventure games that I’ve beaten; I normally dislike the genre, which speaks volumes to how incredible it is.

Ironically, I couldn’t get into Outer Wilds, myself; it sucks to get stuck.

Sable is on a giveaway this week by Epic Games. Use the free-&-open-source Heroic Games Launcher to play it without having to download their platform.

I got bored by FAR’s puzzles and didn’t finish it but I guess I should persist, huh?

Fun fact: Portal was originally a university student project called Narbacular Drop that got hired by Steam. In a sense from its limited narration and story, it felt a bit more like a proof-of-concept than almost a full-fleshed game to me at times, which, for me, was hands-down Portal 2.

They’re great fun to stream and watch, too.

ChatGPT 2 was literally an Excel spreadsheet.

I guesstimate that it’s effectively a supermassive autocomplete algo that uses some TOTP-like factor to help it produce “unique” output every time.

And they’re running into issues due to increasingly ingesting AI-generated data.

Get your popcorn out! 🍿

Oh, man, I totally didn’t know or must’ve forgotten about SubStr() all this time! Thanks, that does the trick!!

At first I thought this was an ad for the side-scrolling, 5-button strategy game Kingdom.

I can’t tell if this is serious lol. If so, is that possible to even do? How much Old Reddit-like stylization does Lemmy allow mods?

Maybe exposure therapy is the way! Treat it out to lunch and then go volunteer at a soup kitchen together; you never know…

Stirling-PDF can do 10x as many kinds of tasks as pdftk can. I used to use pdftk until I discovered Stirling-PDF and have never looked back.

The freemium, offline-capable software Stirling-PDF is king of open-source PDF-editing. Nothing else comes even close, despite how counterintuitive its UI can be. Ironically enough, the creator said it was originally a ChatGPT experiment, but once it went viral, he ended up hiring others and they all regularly improve it as its staff.

If you are on Windows, head over to @ahk@programming.dev and we’ll see what we can do about automating the removal per pg. via AutoHotkey.

Heck, it doesn’t even have to be a girl. https://dateeverything.com/

Blokus sort of slowly blossoms and then gradually squeezes. That’s still nothing compared to Go, haha.
