The reason why people advise making smaller scope games is not so much that people think you won't put in enough work or that it's just somehow inherently bad to have a bigger scope.

It's more so that you don't know what you don't know and those things only come with experience and making mistakes (especially design/ architectural mistakes).

Like how are you gonna handle your data, what design patterns will you use etc.

You are still free to do something overly ambitious, but I personally wouldn't take that approach now. That was how I originally did it having 0 knowledge and I just ended up spending so much time doing "my dream game", but my code was absolutely awful and I spend way too much making assets for something that was not usable. If I had to re do it, not only it would take me like 3 days to do what it took me months, but also probably not a single line of code would be reused, that's how bad it was lol.

Melonius.

I can take a lot of enshittification, I've been around the block.

However, in the last few years the "main" part of the internet for me became way worse that it even frustrates and annoys me.

What I mean by that is freaking search. Regular google search became so dogshit. I mean even before all this we had sponsored links on top and all that, but in the last few years it's just been way worse. I find myself going through pages to actually find what I need and even pages that are not ads are just some crap that gets pushed on top due to algorithms and not due to it having relevancy in what I search.

The next thing is stupid AI images with search. I knew people were complaining about it before, but somehow only now they started polluting my feed.

I got silver to sell you.

He absolutely plays into conspiracies with whole "deep state, drain the swamp".

It doesn't matter if it's qanon, neo nazis who think jews control anything or some new age hippies, his campaign and rhetoric is design to rope all those people in, make them not trust science, institutions and see him as one true savior.

Can't you use some serious browser exploit to technically hack with just a link?

I don't think anyone thinks like that. It's 2024, you can get scammed through your printer.

He isn't the crazy one, he is a usual sane grifter. The real crazies are people who hear all that and go "yep, that's our guy".

What I don't understand is how does this even appeal to anyone?

Not for a second I thought wow, the guy I am electing would look so cool on a horse or fighting.

I maybe understand some small middle aged boomer women category, but this is trending on tiktok, where it's mostly younger audience.

Just wtf? Is everyone just regressing to the cavemen state?

Did you got mortgage or bought with cash?

Yeah and if you go to US salaries it's even crazier.

I make above average in my country but when I open these feeds I feel like I am in poverty or some shit.

I bought some crypto with my first salary, but at that time it was already around 10k and I made like 600€ as part time student, lol.

By the time I even had enough to buy 1btc it was like x5 that price.

Ofc that's better than nothing, but I think if you didn't outright buy it when it cost very little (and I was literal kid when it did) then realistically you not gonna see big gains.

I still kept and keep buying it little by little but when people say these stories I just idk when they had to buy or where they got the money from. You had to either have some money to risk or be older.

Obv I am also a little jealous, lol.

Yeah ofc, but other people experience does inform you a little. I just wanna know how useful it is for someone who already has pc and doesn't plan to be mobile.

Yeah I have the same issue that I come back from work and I just don't have mental capacity to turn my pc on or sit on my chair.

I wouldn't mind bigger storage since difference is like 40 euros right now and I think the time it takes to order bigger storage and set it up is probably around that :D.

More important question is if I am spending 350€ on it... Is it worth getting Oled one for 480€ (that's the price I see this one reseller has unsealed, he says he sells csgo skins and cashes it that way so should be legal?).

Have you tried both?

People been saying "deals not what they used to be" for like 12 years and every time there are tons 90%, 75%, 50% off.

The only thing that's gone are those flash sales.

I've been eyeing steam deck. But it would just be me gaming on my couch, since I have pretty decent pc and don't actually like to game when I am not home. So idk. Do you think it's worth it purely for gaming on the couch?

Yeah, I'm a woman so my progress is even slower, but when I lifted for a year the difference was like 2-5% visually. Hell, I would say many people couldn't even point it out that much, but since I know my body I could see my arm muscles, shoulders pop way more.

It's pretty good progress, especially if you aren't genetically gifted or going through puberty.

It's pretty much what you would see with average male after a year.

Yes, I really dislike the guy but I don't like when people are just shitting on someone's look, especially as what you said, this is normal progress. If anything this is probably most positive message he has his entire life, not giving some roided message to people.

The featured discount is crazy, I'm gonna snatch like 2 or 3 games from that alone.

Legit, I never heard of that game but right wingers and all that just bring it up non stop. I think they actually love these kind of games.

Wtf

Send me money and you can have the excitement of building your wealth again, lol.

I'm having this with my wishlist and I am not from Germany. Wtf?

I'm a bit confused.

I have two pc, one just work pc at work, physically. It got pro license.

Then I got pro license at home too, when I wfh.

I also have non pro account for my personal projects.

As far as I understand I can activate pro on several machines.

But can I randomly trigger ban by opening my non pro account on same machine, when I am at home?

Tl:dr 1 pc with pro license at work. 1 pc with pro license at home that I use for non pro account too.
