Larian has six studios and over four hundreds of employees. They are not as big as Ubisoft of course, but they are still very much an AAA game studio.

They are likely betting on Chinese/Russian tourists. No way Kim lays a finger on a PRC citizen.

Sorry this is the only thing I can think of when looking at those icons

I wonder how many of these people regularly visit other countries as tourists.

Simple, add additional columns for the frame of reference (e.g. Earth) and elevation. You could even store space coordinates using Sun as a reference point (though you would need to update data regularly for spacecraft as they move of course).

Why do you need to store the name of a country in the database? Frontend can take the country code and display a full name on its own, and do it in a localized way too.

North America has its own large oil reserves and AFAIK its countries mostly trade it with each other. Europe chooses to buy oil and gas from Russia, Saudis and other Asian countries because it’s cheaper due to geographic proximity.

Linux has never been good at running old binaries. It’s always assumed that you are running software compiled for the current version if your distribution, and programs that are not available can be compiled from source (because you obviously use only open source software). For everything else you need to use compatibility layers that provide necessary environment.

Centrist? He must be worse than Hitler then.

You are late. They have already did the same with C# extension, and made it closed source too.

It still uses GameBryo for game logic so that is likely moddable. Graphical mods would probably be more complicated.

All of the quests, game logic, AI (including brain dead NOC interactions), voice acting, etc, are exactly the same as in the original and are actually driven by original GameBryo engine. They only rerecorded some lines to add unique voices to NPCs of different races and made some minor gameplay tweaks. The only major changes are graphical - UE5 is used for rendering, all meshes, textures, landscapes and animations are redone. It’s more than a typical remaster like Last of Us, but not exactly a full remake.

Because they profit from it in some way or another, and have no regard for others.

Avowed and X4 depending on the mood. X4 started slow but I think I’ve started the process of getting the hang of the basics after 30 hours.

Are you saying that people living in democratic countries are not responsible for the actions of their elected officials?

I honestly did not expect Starfield to have actual flyable spaceships and vehicles. That was a pleasant surprise, so Bethesda evidently has not stagnated completely. The problem is Starfield has issues with many other game elements (like loading screens, mediocre worldbuilding, etc). Also the fact that it was simply a game in a different genre than previous Bethesda games didn’t help. People expected a handcrafted open world a la Fallout 4 but got a kind-of-procedurally generated sandbox.

Gimp devs will have to port it to Gtk 4 before rewriting it in Rust, because Rust Gtk 3 bindings are now obsolete lol.

There is also Ladybird browser that IIRC already has a more complete web standards implementation than Servo despite being a much younger project. Though it’s still far from being ready and performance is really bad. But so far it seems that it’s going to outpace Servo.

He will call Putin a “smart guy” and “advise” Ukraine to agree to all Russian demands.

All POSIX compatible shells have their quirks and differences because the common POSIX part is rather small, so you will need to learn them anyway when switching from one to another. Fish is not that different from them (to much less extent than something like nushell) and it benefits from having less ancient baggage.
