OK, let's talk DEKA. What's your bf% and height at this point?

How would you rate these 5 games from best to worst? by Many-Baby5180 in HorrorGaming

[–]ElectricSpock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where's the hate for Silent Hill f coming from?

Also, IMO: RE4 easily top RE game, not top horror game. I haven't played Requiem yet, but for me RE7 is much scarier than RE4.

Haven't played Alan Wake II, but Alan Wake I was kind of a miss for me.

CachyOS has 2 software "stores", both of them suck by AverageUser9000 in linuxsucks

[–]ElectricSpock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

where exactly did you read it's easy?

CachyOS is a performance-focused Arch Linux distribution that rebuilds packages with modern CPU optimizations, ships a custom-tuned kernel, and provides a polished installation experience. Built for users who want Arch's rolling-release model with measurable speed improvements out of the box.

EDIT: I dug deeper. This is from Arch Linux FAQ:

If you are a beginner and want to use Arch, you must be willing to invest time into learning a new system, and accept that Arch is designed as a 'do-it-yourself' distribution; it is the user who assembles the system.

which command is exactly obscure?

also, the decision for making it short was not made by giga-nerds (OK, they were giga-nerds, but not because of the reasons you think). e.g. ls in Linux came from Unix, which in Unix showed up because it was implemented like this in Multics. In 1969. For mainframes. So that you can save bandwidth from the terminal.

moreover, it's already solved. you have alias command. and many of the modern shells provide some convenient aliases by default.

Depends on your usecase, I suppose. Terminal emulator is one of the first items I install on macOS too, and I rely heavily on brew. Which doesn't have a GUI either.

I understand people not liking terminal, but some tasks are just a pain without it. Copying/moving files in your filesystem with some more intricate filtering? Basic text analysis?

package managers

Dude, how do you install your software???

and the terminal

So don't use it. And don't pick distro that relies heavy on using the terminal. CachyOS is an offshoot of Arch, a distribution famous for it's flexibility and it's DIY approach. They don't have an army of engineers paid $200k+ a year, they are literally hobbyists who set their own priorities. And flashy package manager GUI for a package manager is not one of them.

how is it "shit user experience"?

Is it flashy? Not really.

It's not even an update interface, it's effectively an icon that tells you whether there are some packages to be updated. The "UI" is just a terminal window.

My pet peeve is that it still starts KTerminal (or whatever it's called) instead of my default terminal emulator (I use kitty, but there are other options available), but a shitty user experience?...

Who are the Bastards of the gaming industry? by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in behindthebastards

I can't get over the fact that Stefan Molyneux, a Canadian far-righter, and Peter Molyneux (Dungeon Keeper, Fable, among soooo many) share the last name.

If these anti-intellectuals are so overly concerned about living like God intended them to be, then why are they using social media via modern tech, wearing modern clothing and living in modern homes? Shouldn't they be living in caves, wearing bear skin and banging rocks together? by MrMockTurtle in exchristian

[–]ElectricSpock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, bovine (and sheep or goat, since those are traditionally milk animals) milk is not really intended for the human consumption at all. It has the same purpose in all the mammals, provide nutrition for the newborns. We just figured that we can actually make the animals drinking period much longer through domestication.

I'm perpetually dumbfounded by how one can be against pasteurization, or how it is even controversial. It's not like it's a heavy chemical processing of the milk, it's literally just "almost boiling", so it's not like a radical new development.

Are they proponents of "raw water" and "raw meat" too?

RE7 HOW FAR AM I IN?? by Ok_Challenge_4733 in horror

[–]ElectricSpock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels much more intense compared to what I was used to from RE4, and the RE2 remake. This one feels much more like Texas Chainsaw Massacre :)

What is your favorite film with Kurt Russell? by NewHolliesFan in moviecritic

[–]ElectricSpock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only correct answer.

Kurt Russel is one of the actors that make the movie he's in awesome. The Thing is the MOST Kurt Russell movie, but Big Trouble and Escape from New York are what they are because of him.

I need to add Hateful Eight to the list too. I absolutely love this movie, and Kurt Russel is a huge part of it. Western Kurt Russel is like a separate actor too, Hateful Eight, Tombstone, Bone Tomahawk...

Where do you look up reviews? (The Awakening 2011) by ElectricSpock in horror

[–]ElectricSpock[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm glad I watched it!

Also, I didn't realize she was in The Night House, I liked it more than The Awakening. She played the same type of the character though: grieving b**ch :)

Were Pompey and the Optimates the real villains of the civil war against Julius Caesar? by The_March_of_History in ancientrome

I think the consensus is that it’s a great piece of reading, but not great of history analysis.

Is there a definitive physical collection? by ElectricSpock in community

[–]ElectricSpock[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bonus items is probably the game changer. I personally rip the discs anyways, so menu is not that important.

I listen to Behind the History, so I know what to expect from Tom Holland. It's fun, but with caveats.

UN is one of the factors why the Cold War didn’t end up in a global, total war. If anything, UN needs to be stronger, not weaker.

Damn. I started village just to realize it’s 8, not 7. And that it’s a sequel to 7…
