Good thing the Internet Archive has a software library containing many classic PC games, including Crysis.

Not sure about the legality, so I won’t link it here (just go to archive.org, and search for it in the software category), but it appears the uploads were made by Crytek themselves.

Remember to donate (if you can afford it) so they can keep this service running.

Just like mama used to make.

When people are unable to make an argument for their position, they tend to use the downvote button to punish those who disagree with them for reminding them of their own incompetence.

Clinton hasn’t held or run for office in almost 10 years, not sure what she would deserve clearance for.

While I’m not entirely convinced that Trunky is the best choice of names, I do agree with your overall reasoning. Mastodon was always an awkward choice for a name and probably hurt adoption quite a bit, despite all the cute elephant cartoons people ended up making. Even Pleroma (an alternative server implementation compatible with ActivityPub) sounds cooler than Mastodon, despite also being three syllables long.

To be fair, I heard they were rather small. Perhaps you ought to look harder?

I don’t trust them either, that’s why I’ve never given them a single cent. My entire account is literally just free games (and I have certainly gotten a few good ones over the years, although the vast majority is crap). If I’m actually going to buy something I’ll go to GOG or Steam.

You can use a third party launcher like Heroic to avoid having to install that bloated crapfest of an app.

If communities were global instead of instance-based, instance mods/admins would likely still be able to moderate posts and comments hosted on THEIR instance (which may be important to confirm to local laws), but they wouldn’t be able to moderate the ENTIRE discussion.

There are likely some advantages to this (such as discussion not being able to be stifled by overeager or politically extremist mods), but it would also mean there is no way to globally enforce any particular rule (unless all instance admins agree on it).

Instance URL checks out

Two can play that game. And since ChatGPT has a rather liberal bias baked in, I’m not sure it would it work out too well for the tankies.

Like I said, fine with me as long as it’s on neutral ground and they can’t just have an admin delete some of my arguments because they don’t like them.

I’m fine with it as long as I don’t have to debate them on THEIR terms.

I’m honestly fine with that, because outside of their home server, they cannot rely on their mods to protect them from arguments they don’t want to hear.

On your Lemmy instance, go to Settings -> Blocks and just block the entire instance. That’s what I did.

I just ended up banning the whole instance from my account so I don’t end up posting there accidentally. If they want an echo chamber, they can have an echo chamber.

I like how it calls the captcha an “IQ test”.

Perhaps, if there are some very specific compatibility issues that haven’t been solved yet.

That said, MS-DOS 4 isn’t even the most recent version, the last one was 6.22 to my knowledge, and IIRC a lot of games tended to require at least version 5 or 6.

Can’t wait for the OSS community to fork it and build some cool shit on top of this /s

A game can have both amazing graphics and great gameplay mechanics.

Yes, that’s what I was saying, that I enjoyed playing those games on Switch that are remakes of older games because they generally have both the gameplay mechanics that made the old games great and the graphics to please the modern sense of aesthetics.
