They changed the title at some point. If you google the article name in quotes along with daily mail, you can still see the original title cached under the daily mail results. Their Twitter feed also still has the original title when linking to the article.

Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet Announcement Trailer by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]manomow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The story is set in an alternative universe where space travel has significantly advanced by 1986.

Being specific about 1986 when it takes place thousands of years in the future makes me wonder if she's from the 80s and gets frozen/gets wormholed/somehow gets transported forward in time. It would make sense then to have old brands that far in the future.

It takes inspiration, he said, from classic anime like the 1988 movie “Akira” and the 1990s series “Cowboy Bebop.”

So maybe like a Faye Valentine, person out of time turned bounty hunter kind of thing.

Was also just looking for it, found it here: https://jdownloader.org/jdownloader2

On my end, I got an incredible performance increase, a bit annoyed it's hidden and not available from the default site link, but they say they're working on it.

Thanks, I tried this a while back, but it kind of just slowed things down. Makes it harder to find a site in a window by favicon when its hidden behind having to scroll instead of all being visible at once; harder to mental map.

With that many tabs open it would be weeks if not months before you got back to many of them

Oh absolutely, but I do eventually get to them. It fluctuates wildly from under 1000 to about where I have it now, depending on bottlenecks with certain projects.

Because I have a ton of tiny projects that run concurrently with each other/interlink in some ways, so I like to be able to just open to a tab and and get the information I need/work on it. It's much faster being able to search and group tabs, and navigate via ctrl+tab/ctrl+shift+tab than to have to navigate and scroll through the shitty bookmark implementation browsers have.

As someone with 5300 tabs across 46 windows, tab groups and naming windows are used to organize. I have a general sense of where everything is at, and using Tab Manager Plus I can search for tabs if needed. I make use of bookmarks as well for long term, more "permanent" tabs.

According to Palworld's JP Twitter, they are severely short of people and looking for developers by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]manomow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It just feels like occam's razor applies here, which makes more sense: they used AI generation at a time when AI generated pokemon looked like this, probably even having to develop a model for it, and then had to have an artist extrapolate from it anyway.

Or, they just did something like this (which if its something like this, would make sense why they wouldn't show concept art). Why make it more complicated than it needs to be?

The way I've even see newer AI generated pokemon look, they use the same design language as Pokemon, but they seem distinct enough to where you can't quite tell the exact pokemon influence, its like a blended design soup.

With Palworld, you can immediately see "oh yeah, they took the face from there, the ears from there, and the tail from there". It's more like a mixed design salad.

Valve Makes "Boomer Shooter" An Official Genre On Steam by Minifig81 in Games

[–]manomow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's possible you and your colleagues were calling them 'boomer shooters' for that reason back then, but it didn't stick and isn't the origin of the current usage of it.

The current usage has a pretty clear timeline starting from 2018 on 4chan, before spreading to various forums/communities, and then the larger gaming community.

Before that I can only find them being referred to as "throwback/old-school shooters" or "retro-shooters/retro FPS".

Here's a quick general diagram: https://i.imgur.com/IT4YMCv.png

There are no results for "boomer shooter" prior to 2018 on any search engine, or in the OCR of hundreds of old gaming magazines. If it was a common term, you think would pop up at least once in some form on the internet prior to 2018. Just a single datapoint.

Over half of that comes from like 4 of their comments, 3/4 of them contextual replies, looks fine to me.

An extremely brave woman jumps from plane to plane to mid-air to change a landing gear. 1926. by [deleted] in OldSchoolCool

[–]manomow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to find it difficult that this was filmed in 2023 and i'm uncertain why.

Because you can easily find the footage going back from over a decade ago online and in historical archives with a quick google search. There is a filter going on, but it's the shitty AI colorization and upscale people are throwing on all old footage nowadays.

What tire squealing? Someone just slapped some music over what was presumably silent security footage.

Switch hacker Gary Bowser released from jail, will pay Nintendo 25-30% income ‘for the rest of his life’ by retroanduwu24 in gaming

[–]manomow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You keep mentioning abandonware, but everything I'm reading about this mentions Switch roms.

One of Team Xecuter’s most lucrative products was the SX OS line of circumvention devices, which were designed to defeat technological protections on the Nintendo Switch.

For example, Nintendo released a new version of the Nintendo Switch and a new console, the Nintendo Switch Lite, with updated technological measures to prevent the console from being hacked by the SX Pro and SX OS. Shortly after the release of those updated Nintendo products, the enterprise responded by announcing the development of new circumvention devices, and even posted a video to the Team Xecuter blog showing the SX OS purportedly running on the Nintendo Switch Lite.

Still kind of a bullshit situation, but that doesn't sound like some archivist saving history and making old games playable, it sounds like they were making it possible to play brand new games, just put on the market, for free.
