This game was on track to be forgotten
Game is just outside the top 50 on steam and had a major content release at the end of June. This ‘game is dying’-because-it-didn’t-indefinitely-sustain-player-counts-in-the-top-10 meme is dumb as hell.

The number of people in this country that think you’re allowed to murder other people for trespassing is insane. Guy should spend a very long time in jail, the absolute shit-for-brains asshole.
The woman who wasn’t there and didn’t shoot them?
As if that has ever mattered.
Correct temperament, but way, way too cogent for anything coming out of Trumpet’s mouth these days.
“…and they’ll say it was fabricated…great fabrications they say, fabric so great you won’t believe it was made in China…Ivanka…I don’t see whats so bad about China…they call it a sweatshop what’s wrong with that? you should sweat at work. Thats what I think anyway. You know I sweat harder than anyone, anyone alive…Ivanka so beautiful…don’t we have…the most beautiful people here, thats what they hate that we have beautiful. They have ugly Nancy Pelosi and we have the most beautiful people…”
I live in small blue town in very red county, and I’m probably not being distinguished from the surrounding area. A lot of it is in the ‘motivating you to show up’ category. At least it would be if I actually believed Bob Casey was holding down Pennsylvanians while Harris injected them with fentanyl smuggled over the border in a sack of illegal aliens.
So I do run an adblocker for most of the web on most of my devices, but the TV for example still plays youtube ads and I would say that maybe 1 out of every 3 or 4 ads is not a political ad. Well over half of the ones that are political are for Trump. I’ve also received at least one mailer every day this week. Usually 2-3 (one for each of my wife and I). All of the mailers are pro Trump. Yes, I let the TV play trash politics adjacent videos on mute trying to waste as much of their money as possible.
Pennsylvania resident here. It’s not an early call. In 2020 the state wasn’t called until Friday iirc. Pennsylvania doesn’t start counting mail in ballots until election day and in most places doesn’t start counting them until the direct polling is turned in.
This is because prior to the last election we had for-cause mail-in voting only and the number of mail-in ballots was always too small to affect the outcome. The counting law hasn’t caught up with the realities of at-will mail-in voting. Granted, local elections boards are more prepared than they were so it should go faster than 2020 but you should abandon the idea of knowing who won Pennsylvania before you got to bed on Tuesday, unless Harris is already way ahead.
The margin of this election will almost certainly be smaller than the number of outstanding mail-in ballots. That means we’ll have to wait for them to be counted just like 2020. Also mail in ballots heavily favor Dems, so in any close race you should expect Trump to be well ahead on Tuesday night and slowly lose ground as the mail-in tallies come in.
The other part of this that absolutely everyone should be aware of is there is a real problem with the current mail-in process in Pennsylvania regarding ballot curing. There are a bunch of rules about how ballots must be mailed in (signatures placement/quality date placement/formatting, envelope types, etc) and how to handle improperly submitted ballots is mostly being left to local elections boards. That means some of them are offering ballot curing, where you can go and fix the issue and have your vote counted, some of them are simply counting the ballots without regard to minor clerical issues, and some of them are throwing out every mail-in for even the slightest technical violation. There are already lawsuits by Republicans trying to establish a precedent that forces all counties into the latter group. State courts have taken a dim view of this position—opting to protect curing and the franchise, but the local federal appeals court has just ruled in the Republicans favor this week, asserting counties are within their rights to discard ballots for minor defects.
This is a bomb waiting to go off and there is a very real chance we’re going to reach a point where Pennsylvania’s electoral votes are going to be handed to a candidate by a court choosing which mail-in votes count and which don’t. There is also a very real chance that SCOPA and SCOTUS both issue rulings with opposing answers.
You cant sell them if you bury them.
Honestly AAA studios don’t even exist anymore. Is there any gaming studio making multipe $60 games per year you can name where you would vouch for the quality of their games solely on the basis of who made it?
Maybe some first party console games(and even then only some series), but nothing for PC.
8/10 for effort, 10/10 for style, but 3.5/10 for execution. The phrase too cute by half springs to mind, but this is closer to too cute by three quarters.
My kingdom for the return of the rear fingerprint sensor.
I guess they’re tied on that front.

I expect they will not be worth it as they’re too underpowered for your specific use case. (I’m assuming your use case is hosting complex physical similations for a major university physics department and the old computer you’re considering on Amazon is a used version of this one or something similar.)
For my home server I use whatever old PC I have laying around already.
Guy whose job it is to sling shit, slings shit. More at 11.
“Let the market decide.”
“No, not like that!”
Case in point, my late 50s father was recently fired from his job of 36 years. They told him not to return the ancient E series thinkpad they had given him as an email checker, but wouldn’t give him a password to be able to use it. After finding the bios wasn’t locked I chucked Debian on it for him and he’s been using it for months to send applications with only a light introduction libreoffice and some minor tinkering with system settings to make it feel more familiar.
The kind that takes more than 2 months to ‘complete’. From the perspective of the earth it makes a horseshoe shape. From the ‘temporary moon’ perspective it gets a trajectory adjustment on its solar orbit.
It’s more like a gravity assist that takes 2 months to complete than an orbit.
