Social(ist) policies are extremely removed from socialism. The countries people list here, aka Canada, Danmark and Ireland among others are extremely capitalist still. This thread is therefore useless.

The last paragraph has a Mechanicus ring to it lmao

Only the bugs are gone. Weird design decisions and some horrendous mechanics are still here. It’s still isn’t an incredible game, but not a bad game either.

Very different games and very different expectations of effort spent. I’ve space trucked a lot in Elite, spending hours going back and fort. But it was never dull, more of a relaxing experience.

That comment stems from games failure to live up to its promises.

This game was marketed as an explorers game with 1000 planets to see, for example.

None of those planets have even the half of the content Skyrim/Fallout has. None of those planets are barren as Elite’s planets, either. You can’t traverse them more than 30 minutes, so it doesn’t even scratch NMS itch. People that liked the exploration of any of those four games would dislike this games exploration very much.

The person above was probably expecting a more lively game, like any other Bethesda game and got whatever this is instead. It’s completely justified to be disappointed.

Landing or taking off isn’t interrupted with a loading screen in either game. You also have freedom of pointing ship to a direction and go there.

Those two things combine to make you feel like you are moving around the game world as opposed to game world moving around you.

4km any direction if I’m not mistaken. Takes me around 30 minutes to each it.

It’s very, very small actually.

I doubt they care about such things.

So I tested both FireFox and Edge real quick and it’s true.

Although, I enabled every security and privacy setting on both (just about the same set of extentions also). But even then, even with a lower score, Edge still feels much smoother to use. Also, every time test refreshed, FF flashed white for a split second as opposed to Edge’s black. Since I use dark mode and Dark Reader, it’s extremely annoying on FF’s part.

It’s not even available in my own country to begin with lmao.

Absolutely! Using open source software is much cheaper, as well. Hiring developers to work on open source software/OSs would cost less than buying software annually. Governments pay stupid amounts of money for easily replaceable software.

It’s because Fediverse is very complicated right now. E-Mail wasn’t, that’s why everyone adopted it pretty quickly.

I honestly don’t see a future where Lemmy topling Reddit or Mastodon topling Twitter.

Federation’s greatest strength is also it’s weakness imo.
