GOG's mission statement is applied very selectively. For a long time they did not support windows 10, and even now it's really spotty. It's frequently on a per-game basis, and sometimes games that used to work, don't any

Ah yes the Tim Sweeney argument. Get a better service with a lower cut, sure. Why does nobody do that? They must be stupid.

The Bismark was also attacked by biplanes with defective torpedos (thankfully, that saved HMS Sheffield). Basically only two torpedos even hit the german battleship. Presumably because the british torpedos were so awful, Tirpitz was attacke

Inside of a submersible warship really is not the place to be conducting assembly of sensitive electronics, and just because you call it "fast automated" doesn't mean it's either of those enough to be feasible in combat

As a fun comparison, Gemini 3 Pro took 17 days to beat the game. Twitch Plays Pokemon, which was frequently random, chaotic, even malicious, took 13 days to clear Crystal.

Gacha mobages are rarely considered the same kind of entertainment as actual RPGs, and even then the Japanese and the Koreans give them stiff competition. When it's not a skinner box FOMO with titillating skins the Chinese barely regis

The article does say that a number of qanats was overdrawn. But it also says several other things, pointing to poor water management policies, extreme damification drying up wetlands downstream, lack of necessary maintenance on some qanats,

These predictions assume that nobody will do anything, which is almost never true. The crisis is no less real just because a lot of resources was put into delaying its effects.

No, it's a French thing. They're rather infamous for making your life difficult if you don't speak fluent French. Anywhere else in Europe people would at least make an effort.

They're still not too bright, which is kind of faithful to the original game. However at least the android client allows you to pick alternate algos and further AI mods that at least claim to make it more challenging are available for

For OCS/ECS hardware 2bit HiRes - 640x256 or 640x200 depending on region - was default resolution for OS, and you could add interlacing or up color depth to 3 and 4 bit at cost of response lag; starting with OS2.0 the resolution settin

Fast Tracker 2, admittedly "bit" later than 1990, could route playback of however many channels you used to the speaker. Worth noting that the quality in these cases was pretty good. A bit staticky but still well above Wolfenstein

Things that go through the proper channels are usually compatible. Crysis was never the most stable of games and IIRC it used 3DNow, which is deprecated - but not by Windows. As a counter-anecdata, last week I ran Galapagos: Mendel's E
