Honestly, I really fear for both kbin and mbin. I was really hoping for more substantial changes in both by this time, but honestly it’s just staying largely the same.

Wow, epic! Thank you for the heads up!!!

How the hell do you even think “it’s fine, I’ll put this password in plain text” when literally building an app for a CREDIT UNION? Obviously it’s not acceptable to do that anywhere, but you would think they would think just a little bit harder about the decision when working with such sensitive data?

At least it’s Genshin for only an hour, not 12 like some of the people I’ve unfortunately met. Also, nothing wrong with 12 as long as you’re retired

Then again, how many retirees are playing Genshin? Haha

This likely breaks your company’s terms of use. This can definitely lead to termination, especially since the other OS would likely not be monitor-able by them (opening them up to potential liability, along with the myriad of other issues)

Honestly, other than the questionable Pokemon-esque models, Pocketpair seem like they have really solid heads on their shoulders

Welp. I’m glad Stux was already updating earlier. Honestly, Stux probably knew before just about everyone else

Thank you, and cool bot!

Seems to have worked well for ya, lemme try

Maybe this won’t work since I’m on kbin.run?

I’ll have to try this, thanks!

The things I tend to gravitate towards:

• Flatpak
• Firefox of some kind (lately been loving Floorp)
• Keeper Password Manager extension on Firefox
• try to install some form of backup
• git (if not already available)
• nvm (Node version manager, usually I install the latest LTS)
• Go (sometimes I write Go programs)
• Steam (if I plan to play games)
• Sometimes I’ll install Zsh, sometimes Fish, then oh-my-zsh / oh-my-zsh
• Fastfetch (Neofetch is so slow?)

I still play once in a blue moon, but only the tiniest amount haha. I’d say you should check out the subreddit for Discord links - there’s a “Royal Para Regiment” Discord with quite a few people that seems to be very active

Dude went ahead and deleted the last one I commented on, at this point I think hes tryina use the “Delete post” button as the search button

Yeah, you’ve really hit it right on the money. I grew up with H&D 2 and it really did have awful AI. The graphics also aren’t doing it any favors in 2024 - it was mildly ugly even by 2003 standards, in my opinion. Still, it had some very imaginative levels and overall the vibes are right for a tactical WW2 shooter. Also, the multiplayer is (somehow) still going!

Honestly, the gameplay was what kept me from finishing the game. It was not the best, and I felt like it really left a lot to be desired (specifically in controls and the “feel” of shooting).

Also before I get any comments about it, I’ve already seen the scenes at the end of the game and I’m really not interested in finishing it. I know what I’m missing, and I’m okay with that (as emotionally touching as it is).

Oh, I almost forgot - Hidden and Dangerous and Hidden and Dangerous 2 are also great. They’re very similar to Arma (but released before Arma afaik, and have smaller maps). Pretty solid, but I do feel that the controls have not aged well at all (for example, they use the “end” key to aim down sights by default). They are overall pretty enjoyable, but to be honest, nostalgia aside, you aren’t missing a ton if you don’t play them. There are a lot of rough edges, such as grenades not killing enemies that are close because a chair leg was in the way.

If you’re gonna play any of the games I recommend, I would say play Vietcong and give it a real shot. The game starts slow but by the 3rd mission it gets intense

Honestly, try Battlefield 1942 on single player. It’s not half bad - the AI is about as smart as you would expect, but it’s still fun to fight them. Also, the multiplayer is still going if you wanna try that!

Also, not WW2, but I HIGHLY recommend giving Vietcong a try (both the base game and Fist Alpha). It’s one of the most engrossing games I’ve ever played. If you can get past the derpy (by today’s standards) character models, this game has a seriously compelling campaign and there are still occasional multiplayer matches. If there was ever a game to make the Vietcong and NVA scary as fuck, it’s that one.

There are definitely still servers for Day of Defeat’s spiritual successor, Day of Infamy
