I've always liked the idea of running a set of parks like 6 flags or something. Parks your friends can visit and ride the rides like RCT3. Amazing. Heck even proper multiplayer could be fun on a game like this. Yet another feature or OpenRCT2. Especially when Parkitect and Planet Coaster exist, why even bother if you aren't at least going to try?

As someone with literally thousands of hours in RCT 1 2 and 3 combined this looks genuinely awful to me.

OpenRCT2 (RCT2 Mod) has better animations and most likely more quality of life features. Really RCT1 looks better and smoother than this and it did so on a pentium 4 CPU in 2003.

I don't understand how a 24 year old game is making this new one look so awful. To be fair, Chris Sawyer captured lightning in a bottle for the first game, but come on! You're telling me a huge studio with millions of dollars and tops of personnel can't do better than this?

Yeesh.

Mmmmm Content®. I sure do love Brand™. My favorite thing about Property© is all the Merchandise™ I can buy related to it.

Seriously, I loved Gargoyles as a kid. I loved the animation style and I loved the darker subject matter that I as a kid got to experience. As an adult, I have no use for another CGI filled paint-by-numbers show with milquetoast stories and hours of filler. And I sure as heck have no desire to give Disney any more money to support it.

Sorry for the grumpy pessimism.

The author is speculating that maybe it's a rehash of a 6000 series card. I'd be surprised to see that but if it is a 480/580 situation the price had better be great. Like $329/$359 great.

Found this app. Does more or less what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Must be Samsung only. I'm not able to get this to work on my Motorola RAZR+.

I see the freeform option and I have tested that out. It's the closest to what I want to do.

I just wish I could click the split screen mode and only choose 1 app to run in the top 50% of the screen and have the other half just be black.

I am able to do split screen in this way. What I am looking for is to run only 1 app but just in the top 50% of the screen.

I've been running crunchbang++ on an older laptop since they updated to the latest Debian release.

I love how simple and speedy it is and since it's based on Debian 12 and GTK 4 I can still run all my software super easily.

It's also become my go-to live distro.

Who knew the post Barbenheimer saviour of cinema would be Taylor Swift. She is also single-handedly expanding the NFL's fan base.

Is there anything she can't do?

The pacing is pretty bad on a lot of episodes. Especially how long they like to just hold on a shot of the crew waiting for something to happen. Sometimes seems like hours and hours of this.

I can personally guarantee you how nice ultrawide is and beats 2 small monitors every day. I have had one for 6 years and can't go back. Windows makes it easy to snap left and right.

I use a program called PowerToys FancyZones to divide my ultrawide monitor into 3 equal sections that I can snap to as well. I suggest checking that one out no matter what you end up going with
