It's a reference to this post. A lot of people found it funny but a lot of lemmings also thought it was insulting and spam

Things you should never get caught liking on Lemmy:
Nintendo

Auth-right, lib-right, or lib-left politics
A can of beans

All of my favorite Star Wars games are on sale. When star wars games were good; "before the dark times, before EA."

Knights of the Old Republic I & II
Dark forces
Empire at War
Jedi Academy
Jedi Outcast
Republic Commando
Battlefront I & II (Lucasarts ones not EA)
Shadows of the Empire
Bounty Hunter

All great games worth playing imo

I'm interested to read your interview, I've often wondered what motivations are present for the minds behind services like that. I wonder how many are from a benevolent will to share entertainment & preserve games, and how many are simply just financial

In my opinion Gajim for desktop looks pretty sleek. Cheogram has a 2020 look to it, but it's still great looking imo. Not everything has to have sleek gradients and overly rounded borders. I actually prefer 2015 UI where things were more boxy and very slightly rounded e.g. the old instagram app logo.

I've also gotten my friend to use Cheogram, and her #1 complaint is not having chat effects from imessage. I feel like if you just slap on integrated gifs and add a couple of UI animations, non-techies would be all over it. Maybe XMPP just needs some frontend UI pazazz for people to take notice

Webp is definitely what makes it evil

Chaotic Evil:

Print it out, stuff it in a green bell pepper, char the green pepper into ash, eat it, wait 3 days, take a picture of it with a nintendo dsi, transfer it via ftp to hannah montana linux, add green bellpepper watermark via GIMP, save as webp in root directory

Xenia was one of the few programs I kept windows for, good to check it off the list. I'll definitely be downloading and tinkering with it soon

Command and Conquer perhaps? CC Tiberium Wars came out around 2007. Starcraft is also a similar RTS; Starcraft 2 came out in 2010

These come to mind where you can kill enemies, be a girl, and are or are similar to an rpg:

Middle Earth: Shadow of War: main character is a guy but in one of the expansions you can play the story as Galadriel. Killing monsters and game mechanics are peak

Skyrim Mods: ik you mentioned Skyrim, but The Wheels of Lull, The Tools of Kagrenac, and The Forgotten City are game sized mods in of themselves and are very good

Elder Scrolls III Morrowind and IV Oblivion: both as good as Skyrim, but in different ways. Go in with an open mind and you will be amazed

Star Wars KOTOR I & II: my favorite games of all time, very much games where you can choose how your character acts and who they become. Great story too, as a fan of star wars or not

I recently got back into Batman Arkham City. The last time I played it was 2016 or so, and I forgot what it was about. I remember it being really good, but I'm enjoying it even more this time around. They really nailed all the characters spot on (coming from reading the graphic novels and comics)

Seconded on Talos Principle; it's a great game. It takes a more philosophical spin on the story rather than a comical spin like Portal, but it does scratch that 3D puzzler itch that Portal accomplishes so well
