Oh by the way, got my deck RMA. Which is a little slow for hyper impatient me but very cool.
What isn’t though, or might be funny depending on your POV… I historically hate tinkering with linux, but you have to sometimes, like patching FF7 for Beacause. Not fun. At all.
And…
First thing to do before RMA : please do a factory reset :so-good-blob:

Great ! I can't do a factory reset. The Deck freezes on restart. Totally reassuring, just a defect button my ass :so-good-blob:

Though that may be unrelated to the fall and a deep rooted issue, my Deck do an awfully lot of verifying installation for a good working product.

I know it’s offtopic and many people won't care but WOW, RARBG got down!

Hello guys,
We would like to inform you that we have decided to shut down our site.
The past 2 years have been very difficult for us - some of the people in our team died due to covid complications,
others still suffer the side effects of it - not being able to work at all.
Some are also fighting the war in Europe - ON BOTH SIDES.
Also, the power price increase in data centers in Europe hit us pretty hard.
Inflation makes our daily expenses impossible to bare.
Therefore we can no longer run this site without massive expenses that we can no longer cover out of pocket.
After an unanimous vote we've decided that we can no longer do it.
We are sorry :(
Bye
I think this is the biggest (and sad) news in many time.
- it was the real source of maaany material.
: '(.

As this is the final Rise update, the next Monster Hunter will probably be announced later this year.

I think someone posted this earlier, but Capcom is cooking something related to Monster Hunter World. My crackpot conspiracy theory is they are going back to implement crossplay (as evidenced by them working on a depot called "networktest") and using that as a foundation for the next MH.

Yeah, the Piracy community is in shambles. I used it for my Plex server too. RARBG was THE website for video content, I especially loved their rarbg releases.
Pretty much.
I'm in some private good tracker but rarbg was my easytogo site for korean films (and old japanese films), really it's been years since there wasn't one day I didn't downloaded something from there. Still shocked : - (

Hmm, the MHW update could end up just being integration with Capcom ID.

Though, while I really doubt something like this would happen, crossplay would be neat... xd

Hey gang!

Back from early summer holiday. Paris is just lovely this time of year.

While overseas I picked up Farm Sim 23 for mobile. It only just landed last week. Man is it a treat on iPad Mini. The mobile versions are finally starting to catch up to PC/console releases. It's not 1:1 yet, but with '23 it's finally in a place where I feel like I'm playing proper Farm Sim on the go with very little compromise. Good times.

The punchline is when I got back to The States I dove back down the rabbit hole with FS22 on PC. Looked over some FS content on YouTube from personalities I follow, looking for leads on latest/greatest mods. Between 2 vids alone I managed to pile on 40 mods that were scripts alone, lol.

Damn the Farming Simulator franchise is pure gold.



In other news, I follow Space Game Junkie on another message board and he was all over Final Upgrade, singing it's praises left & right.

Like 3 days later it went on -40% discount so I said what the hell. I'm not too far in but I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. It certainly has that 1-man dev team energy that I love. And it looks to have all that crunchy goodness in the depth dept. that I crave. A refreshing production chain management sim that's so off the radar that only a couple YouTube peeps have gameplay archives. And I'm aaaalso all about some of that hipster indies cred. :p

I have Diablo IV Nvidia promo key (EU) for 45$ if someone is interested.
I may be interested. Is there a difference with retail on bnet ?

Edited my EU question because I'm dumb.

i am looking someone from Europe to activate because i am not sure how much region locked it is. It should be standard edition of the game. I have Nvidia code that needs to be activated on GeForce Experience, then you need to connect Bnet account to GeForce Experience and redeem game to account. RTX 4000 series GPU is required.

I have a 4070 (got the fucking Overwatch 2 cosmetic code at the time), so if it activate in France I'm game.

Somehow the song I was listening to when I read your post seems fitting, The Abbey from Fallout 2 restoration pack:


I gotta say...reading that message is god damn heartbreaking, I had no idea the site was ran by ukrainians and russians and now they are fighting a literal war, fuck..

Damn, layoffs at Firaxis. This coinciding with Midnight Suns winding down (and with Jake Solomon having left already), I'm just going to assume that this is them fully disbanding the XCOM team. Hope for a third installment is probably completely dead. :crying-face:

That's a fantastic bundle. I wish I didn't have the first 4 games, I can't justify $15 for the other 3.

An XCOM 3 is surely in the cards, the reboot was successful for them. Midnight Suns 2 though... :frowning-face-with-open-mouth:

Didn't Jake Solomon basically confirm it wasn't being worked on when he left? You'd think it would at least be in the planning stages by now if it was at all in the cards. I hope you're right, though. I really loved the two reboot games. :crying-face:
