That sounds terrible! I am already not very good at managing the charge of my phone.

Genuine question: How do you manage not to lose one of the earbuds?

I know USB-C is more robust than MicroUSB, but that doesn’t feel like it’s good for the connector. I’d much rather have a bit thicker (Apple said they’re getting rid off the jack to make their phones thinner.) or a bit less waterproof phone (not having a massive hole in the phone helps to waterproof it), than to loose the headphone jack.

Same. I can’t imagine having to remember to charge my headphones.

Perhaps a point & click adventure would be a good fit? I’ve played and quite enjoyed The Blackwell Legacy and I’ve heard good things about other games by Wadjet Eye.

If you’re interested in Mass Effect, please also visit !masseffect@lemmy.ml. It’s also a bit dead, but we’re trying!

Edit: There’s also the much bigger !masseffect@lemmy.world, which I somehow missed.

Yeah. I’ve heard that. I’m glad Microsoft made the Series S; I own one and it’s my gate to modern gaming, as I don’t have enough money for a good computer nor Series X. It’s a nifty little machine. Obviously, I don’t want Microsoft to lower the parity requirements nor — shudder to think — discontinue the Series S. At the same time, I would really like to play BG3. Difficult times. I guess lowering the parity requirements would be the preferred option.

I wonder how many people actually play the Larian RPGs in multiplayer and what percentage of them uses couch coop. Personally, I can’t really see playing a long cRPG with someone else.

I’m planning on it, when the Xbox version comes out.

Yes, they do. Part of the OpenType standard are the so called “OpenType features” which (amongst other things) allow for contextual alternates, i.e. different kinds of ligatures, and for stylistic alternates, e.g. a slashed zero, a single-storey ɑ, etc. All of these different glyphs are encoded in the font and can be enabled when typesetting using different selectors. This website shows them off.

Some ligatures, like “ffl”, are a separate character in Unicode. Some were added because they can be considered a different character in languages other than English. Some (like “ffl”) were added because of legacy reasons; “no more will be encoded in any circumstances”.

It’s OpenTTD, hands down. I think source ports and game reimplementations are where open source shines its best.

To anyone who isn’t interested in Japanese-style visual novels, I’d recommend Scarlet Hollow. It’s an “immersive horror-mystery” illustrated by Abby Howard (of The Last Halloween fame). It’s an episodic title (the first episode is free on Steam) and it is not finished yet.
