GitHub was really intimidating for me the first few times I used it. Overly simple answer is that it’s a place to store and share code, and oftentimes versions that are compiled and ready to install. If you want to keep things simple just look for a “Releases” section

The account is still up and viewable for me. US.

That screen share fps is rough

I don’t browse or even log in to reddit anymore. I don’t feel bad for searching out specific things. Since the audience is so much larger, there’s niches that just haven’t been replaced by Lemmy or other services. Sports, media discussion, and old tech advice threads are the ones I’ll still go over for.

Just Nintendo games I think

Sharing Jason Schreier’s take from bluesky:

Pleased to report that I love Avowed, the latest RPG from Obsidian. I expected strong writing and combat, but what’s surprised me (and kept me wanting more even after 40 hours) is the exploration. Everywhere you turn there’s a secret or treasure or rooftop to climb — it’s dense and full of life.

I’m a little surprised reading some of these reviews but I suspect that Avowed could wind up like Fallout: New Vegas, where there’s a vast gap between the critical reception and overall player consensus

It’s based on chromium so there’s always going to be people against it here, but I’ve been enjoying it as my secondary to Firefox.

Congrats on 200! Thanks for keeping up with this. Beautiful screenshots today

Congrats on the new rig! What kind of hardware do you have?

200 is getting pretty close!

Yakuza 0 was my first and still has a special place in my heart. However, the new games with Ichiban have also been great. Slowly working my way through Infinite Wealth right now, but there’s just so much to do (I spent days just doing Dondoko island).

More people need to check out the Judgment games as well.

Nothing of substance to add, but for the record Jay Graber is a woman

I have 367 games in my Epic library. A few of them are f2p (e.g. Fortnite) but the majority are giveaways. The only game I’ve purchased on EGS is Alan Wake 2 due to exclusivity

Alan Wake 2 image seems unrelated? Odd since the others match

THE TURKEY’S A LITTLE DRY???

I wish for a turkey sandwich, on rye bread, with lettuce AND mustard. And I don’t want any zombie turkeys, I don’t want to turn into a turkey myself, and I don’t want any other weird surprises, got it?

We have the knowledge and ability to be better

Indeed, what’s perhaps most striking about GenCast is that it requires significantly less computing power than traditional physics-based ensemble forecasts like ENS. According to Google, a single one of its TPU v5 tensor processing units can produce a 15-day GenCast forecast in eight minutes. By contrast, it can take a supercomputer with tens of thousands of processors hours to produce a physics-based forecast.

So it’s more accurate and uses significantly less computing power than current systems. Nice!
