It’s peanut time. Bonus if they’re honey-roasted

Let me know if something particular stumps you or if you want clarifications on anything.

The short of it is containers are useful in that you, the user, don’t need to know bow the application runs or what its dependencies are- all you need to know is how to access it (what host port, your machine, will you map to the container’s application port and what host storage do you map to the container’s storage).

There are more capabilities/advantages beyond this, but that’s the 1000-level view. Also basically just ignore docker run and focus on docker compose scripts- they’re better practice and I think conceptually make more sense when learning the ecosystem initially

I went searching for this on my souces and couldn’t find anyone who had it, but it appears archive.org has a scanned version that you can borrow seemingly indefinitely with just an account on the website.

I looked into ripping off of archive and think it’s achievable via a few methods but I’m too tired to research further tonight. I’ll gladly look into it more tomorrow if the borrow method is untenable for whatever reason- just let me know.

This inspired me to download the now-unlisted original PvZ with no ads on mobile. I will report to this version of the PvZ2 trenches once I am finiahed there.

To all the Linux users our there- you can have Heroic Games Launcher install a full proton-like stack automatically for games you have on the Amazon, Epic, and GOG storefronts to make this less of a hassle to work.

Incredibly easy. Ace3ds X is the flash cart of choice for the DS (works on a 3DS as well to play DS games) and is fairly cheap

I’m pretty confident that if someone told me all games are erased from existence except for one of your choosing that Monster Hunter Freedom Unite would survive.

Huge QOL increase. You won’t regret it in the slightest. I despise advertisements

Glad to hear. Here’s to a speedy recovery

Motorstorm: Pacific Rift is one of the best arcade racers of all time

Super Stardust HD (from the Returnal studio) and Resogun are both great arcade shooters

Hard Corps: Uprising is a solid Contra game entry

Pixeljunk Monsters debuted on the PS3 (now on steam and gog as well) and was a fun tower defense game.

Monster Hunter Portable 3rd HD was a PS3 port with HD textures of the psp game of the same name.

Ratchet and Clank: Nexus is the final PS3 Ratchet entry that while technically flawed (rough frame drops) feels like the closest game in the series to Going Commando on the PS2

Seconding EX Trooper’s fan translation

That is incredibly unfortunate and not something I’d considered as being a regional matchmaking barrier until now.

Without that communications piece I don’t think I’d recommend the game unless you’re just fiending for a 3rd person shooter. I’m also hard pressed to say it feels better than other 3rd person shooters available (granted there aren’t many), but if that’s the itch looking to be scratched Star Wars Battlefront 2 and The Division 1/2 (PVP modes specifically) I think provide much more consistently entertaining gameplay than Arc Raiders, but reminder here that I don’t care for the extraction genre much so your interests may be radically different than mine on this front.

If you’re playing it for the extraction PvP experience it fills a 3rd person hole that exists in the space.

It’s a pretty impressive technical marvel that has pretty great sound design and really fun PvE encounters.

The progression mechanics are long and somewhat mediocre in my opinion, but I don’t generally care for extraction shooters and am here largely because my friends are.

It has a disproportionate amount of people actually communicating over proximity voice relative to the genre which is the games main differentiator outside of the camera view. Interactions are very frequently fun/dynamic in a way that most extraction games I’ve played aren’t. This likely diminishes over time as a meta is settled and more casual users drop/are pushed out of the game.

If you’re looking to play it and the finances aren’t problematic I’d say now is the time to maximally enjoy the community interactions if that’s your primary interest as I don’t think it will ever be in a more enjoyable state than now. If just the pvp component is driving your interest that should be solid throughout.

I’m planning to play the best piece of capitalist gaming art ever made:

The Red Army singleplayer campaign in Call of Duty: World at War where you get to storm Berlin and mercilessly slaughter Nazis before planting the the flag atop the Reichstag.

Hilarious coming back to this comment after he posts his coverup photo only to have the dogwhistle 1919 (SS) in the coverup photo.

Give me a full body image so I can see how many Nazi tattoos western “leftists” and even liberals at this point can go “idk maybe he’s just stupid and not a Nazi?”

I have two dumb things that I hope bring joy:

1. Mario Party 4/5/6 are being decompiled and ported into a singular PC game with online multiplayer functionality
2. I saw the sweet apartment kitty that I was worried had something happen to it in a window happily snoozing near the front of my complex today and found out the person living there adopted it about a week ago

I’ve got one of the 8bitdo SNES-likes (SN30 pro?) for any dpad heavy game, an 8bitdo ultimate 2 2.4ghz for basically every other controller game (the 4 extra buttons in Dinput mode are great for flying games), and mouse and keyboard for the rest.

At some point I’d love to get flight stick(s) for some space games but I can’t convince myself to spend the money on them when that genre is really more of a passing interest right now.

I also occasionally think about fight sticks but I really don’t play fighting games enough to want to buy in either.

I don’t understand why more people aren’t talking about how Tails was able to synthesize a fake chaos emerald that was close enough to be able to be used in chaos control.

This should have been a world-altering event and people still only talk about Shadow smdh

Gonna be hard to explain why I’m in such a good mood at work tomorrow
