Well, to get humans to space today you have either the crew dragon on a SpaceX falcon 9, or a Soyouz.

And relations with Russia are a bit tense nowadays, so if you are not Russian, there are currently no other options than SpaceX.

Kinda looks like a monopoly, with another actor starting to compete (and SpaceX is historically very competitive on prices, so without huge government subsidies, I doubt Boeing would consider maintaining their crewed vehicle)

Gave a presentation last year, using a joy con as a remote for switching slides.

Nice thing is you can have mouse with the joystick as well

I’m very sad they are closing shop, but I understand it.

I find their last DLC awfully expensive, but I think I’ll buy them anyway, as I really loved all their games (bought desperados 3 day 1, same for shadow gambit, and no regrets).

Their games were crafted with love, and it shows. If you haven’t, go and try them on, it’s a fun genre.

I started playing because I had nostalgia for the commandos games, but they really refined the gameplay and made the different difficulty modes so everyone can have fun.

I highly recommend it, its a very good game.

I have a old gaming laptop that is not supported.

Intel i7-7820HK, 4cores 8 threads 2.9Ghz.

Released in 2017.

That’s not old-arse as far as I’m concerned, and I don’t see the need for an upgrade. I’m going to install Linux on this PC because I have the know-how and desire to check out how electron fares. But I can see how that is not an option for everyone.

I don’t think it goes with the vibe of the game, it would disrupt the factory too much

They hint that the drilling awakens something, so I’m guessing different enemy

Yes, and Red Alert 2 as well (since it runs on the same-ish engine).

I’ve been hoping for this since the release of the remastered versions of the original C&C and Red Alert.

I really hoped we wouldn’t be as close minded as on Reddit.

Nuclear, like anything, has advantages and drawbacks.

The question is: are those advantages overcoming the drawbacks ? (This is obviously an oversimplification, as there are lots of questions, even nested within this simple one, like “will the advantages overcome the drawbacks for the lifetime of this project?”

Factorio is one of the very few games that has a demo though.

The free demo allows you to figure out if you enjoy the mechanics of the game, and if you don’t, you do not end up with more bloat in your library.
