I’m currently waiting for an Anbernic rg-35xx to arrive, but this was definitely on the shortlist during my research! In the end, availability and the joysticks were the deciding factors, but interested to hear how you think those two compare.

I had this just last night and didn’t realise. Everything else was working fine, but then I glanced at my phone and realised that it was 2 hours later than the computer was showing.

Yes, and I think it serves as a microcosm of a lot of recurring ideas and themes that crop up again and again in the rest of the series.

Huh, interesting.

I’m intrigued, how did you post this on Mastodon and Lemmy simultaneously?

Actually, they seem to be launching into a new phase of compatibility, with a version 2 component set being discussed on their website that has much broader capabilities.

I turned both and felt the results from Ecosia weren’t as useful. I’ve been using Qwant for a few months now. Qwant also has the bonus of being one character away from Qwantz.com, one of my favourite websites.

And then suddenly ceased to exist.

I still haven’t played 2!

I’d also recommend The Talos Principle and The Turing Test for similar itch scratches.

My favourite is In Which Children Suffer .

The Man in the High Castle has a pretty good take on this.

It was our grain that they were taking. The potatoes were attacked by fungus.

Ireland isn’t bad from a basic survival perspective - massive food surplus and plenty of water - but if we wanted to maintain current living standards, I think we would fall down on power as it stands currently. Plenty of natural wind and tidal power resources that are underutilised.

I thought the cover photo would be a little closer to the ground, but I guess it’s on a table or something.

If you remember the “glory days” pre ubiquitous constant internet connections, you had to enter a big long code when installing any software. I think the principle is that the license key is some sort of decryption key that unlocks a core part of the software which would otherwise prevent it running.

I wonder how many obstacles there are to running the CD ROM that OP got? (Apart from my obvious one of not having a cd drive!)

Yeah I figured there weren’t enough keys but couldn’t tell if there was a workaround using layers or something.

How much of a learning curve is there with it? Is it actually feasible to type with?

A Softer World is defunct now, unfortunately, so all their comics would have predated the LLM apocalypse we find ourselves in.
