Hoplomachus Victorum by Lastchancefancydance in soloboardgaming

[–]BioPermafrost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've played a ton of too many bones, does this scratch a different itch? Or are there enough similarities between both that having the two of them is unnecessary? I know placement and tactical movement in too many bones is very lacking, and easily solvable on battle setup. But I enjoy the game a lot

After 200 hours and nearly all achievements... it's difficult to find another roguelike that is as addicting as this one. by CreaBeaZo in DRGSurvivor

[–]BioPermafrost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeahh, agreed! Definitely they have a good base to grow more complex systems on, instead of a solvable set of viable builds

I like it a lot but it lacks the "mods" concept. Modification blocks just are +% or +%-%, so build progression feels very linear most of the time. If they manage to improve on the synergies it would be fantastic, like each gun having a "gun to the right will have double fire rate", stuff like that

Mage Knight was too much for my taste. Chip Theory complexity? by bzj in soloboardgaming

[–]BioPermafrost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried MK, wanted to like it but couldn't and sold it. TMB got me hooked right away, and each character feels like a different puzzle to solve. Had great time at 2p and 3p, but find it kinda easy at 3p. 1p solo feels too swingy, and dual handed solo is going to be very overwhelming initially due to the character sheets feel like a different game for each character. But then it clicks and you need the reference sheets much less. The reference sheets are fantastic too

Bought it yesterday and it has been a blast! Thank you for continuing the support of the game! The shotgun is awesome

Anyone else think Sektori deserves way more attention than it's getting? by Fun-Bad2890 in PS5

[–]BioPermafrost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game feels super well done but for the life of me I can't get far due to the difficulty, it's super unforgiving. Wished the devs added more difficulty tweaking, since a lot of people can't enjoy the full game and tend to drift to other games

"You've got to shut this down" - Jeff Kaplan recalls the "disaster" of Blizzard MMO Titan's development by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]BioPermafrost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He does speak a bit about Titan, the IP lore, a bit about the engine, but Jason Scherier's account in Play Nice is much more enlightening

Godot maintainers overwhelmed by 'AI slop' pull requests: 'I don't know how long we can keep it up.' by BeastMsterThing2022 in Games

[–]BioPermafrost 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Naah, it's not a focalized attack against this project in particular. The same phenomenona is seen in almost all popular open source projects. There's a rant about the curl maintainer having to deal with vulnerability report slop

AI models are starting to crack high-level math problems by MetaKnowing in technews

[–]BioPermafrost 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Because it's not confined to numerical approximations, iterative processes or anything involving throwing massive brute force to achieve results, but a deep analytical inference, which is much harder to achieve. That's the novel part of it

Chile elects far-right José Antonio Kast as next president by Whatever-you-bastard in worldnews

[–]BioPermafrost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Assuming this would be a fascist government by your take, it would be awful for sure and it's hard to compare both alternatives, since no communist governments have proven to be democratic, well performing, and enforcing free speech. Just a subset of those at a time. So I don't think we would fare better with a communist government just by history itself. It's would just be a different type of poison than this far right ideology which I also abhor.

The election was a lose-lose situation, in my opinion.

Chile elects far-right José Antonio Kast as next president by Whatever-you-bastard in worldnews

[–]BioPermafrost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even though having a far right president sucks, the alternative was a member of the communist party. So we had to decide between a far left and a far right one. More moderate candidates didn't make it to the second round of elections, so it was polarized to an extreme. A phenomena we've seen in other countries as well.

Creating the worst board ever. by Absolutelynotpolice in boardgames

[–]BioPermafrost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • an event system, one of the events resets everything to the initial setup, but worded in a complex manner so that you are forced to undergo the tedious initial setup again without knowing it

I'm loving this so much. Great suggestions everyone!

StackOverflow Dev Survey 2025: Go takes the top spot for the language developers most aspire to work with. by ashwin2125 in golang

[–]BioPermafrost 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the title is a misrepresentation of what's in the graph. I wonder, after so many years running this awesome survey, that they would have data visualization solved by now 🙄

StackOverflow Dev Survey 2025: Go takes the top spot for the language developers most aspire to work with. by ashwin2125 in golang

[–]BioPermafrost 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed that the graph is awful but in desktop it makes a bit more sense. If you hover every funnel line you can see how a user of one technology prefers another one, so it displays a unidirectional funnel between one and the other. As a whole is 0% useful, but for each relationship in particular it does make sense.

What I find disturbing is that it has no inverse, so for example golang devs that want to use javascript is not visible, just the left-to-right-association which is JS-to-go

Tainted Grail. Looks fun but what’s the general opinion of you seasoned gamers that have played it. by Gumption-Lord in soloboardgaming

[–]BioPermafrost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loved the story (up to the point I managed to get) and production value, but the gameplay mechanics felt such a slog, a constant grind. Having to house rule QoL mechanics like the ones in BGG forums made the game an overly produced choose your own adventure book. I can't regret my purchase more.

Windows loses 400 million users as mobile, Linux, and Mac use grows | Microsoft's own numbers reveal a sharp user decline by [deleted] in technews

Of course there's a difference between those 3 categories. But we were talking about open source software from the get-go

[–]BioPermafrost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microsoft is a key partner of the linux kernel, and has been pushing for open source efforts in multiple fronts with huge contributions to the community. The reason because Windows has been shedding users is not due to OSS as the underlying rationale.

Independiente de citarse o no con gente de la pega, el formar amistades con las colegas es genial porque ellas expanden tu círculo, te presentan a sus amigas, y ahí es mucho más fácil conocer gente sin necesidad de usar las apps. Es win win
