Tears of the Kingdom is one of the best games ever made, shame they keep it exclusive though.

Yeah, the Pi moving to full computer thing is weird because the SD card is still a massive bottleneck on normal day-to-day usage.

Will you use a separate flight controller chip or try to do it all on board?

It’s been a while but I remember Orange Pi having terrible support? I haven’t heard of the others.

Whereas the RPi has the amazing compute module if you need it too.

Sometimes paying more is better.

Discord. I mostly post in an Ultima 7 modding community and helped out a bit but we also just talk about video games and stuff.

It’s hard to find the smaller servers where you can actually have a decent discussion though, just like IRC back in the day.

What are the better options?

Pis have great software support so for GPIO experimentation it’s so useful.

Ocarina of Time - it was mindblowing to have the open world at the time (I didn’t play Ultima 7 until much later) and the music is incredible.

Rainbow Six Vegas and Splinter Cell Blacklist and Chaos Theory were awesome for this - especially for 2 people.

If you have 4 then SWAT 4, Ready Or Not, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, ARMA 3.

Slay The Spire - finally beat the heart.

Yeah, had a drug dealer burgle our apartment (just an opportunistic thing, spare keys had been left outside by a friend who was moving). Fortunately no-one was in, but it sucked to have to deal with all the damage and security.

We eventually tracked them down when they sold some stuff though and they were actually arrested and we got a few things back.

It was awesome the police actually raided them. Unfortunately the new government released them as prisoners with “non-violent” offences.

I learnt Spanish like this. Mainly finishing Duolingo and downloading some textbooks and doing a few MOOC courses and listening to slow podcasts, and then watching basic movies.

Once I got to the point I could watch movies and TV, I would watch a movie almost every single day.

It’s a lot of work, but to get to the point of speaking and listening it is necessary.

It took about 2 years in total - and then I started a job working in Spanish.

Just use Steam.

I never played any of the others so I can’t really comment.

I just really loved the living world - it’s why I tried the game after playing Oblivion.

So few games have that - Dwarf Fortress, Ultima and Oblivion still stand far ahead of the rest.

• Ultima VII

Honourable mentions for Baldur’s Gate 3, Crusader Kings 2, and Tears of the Kingdom.

But the lump of labour fallacy is wrong - in the end automation makes us all wealthier as goods become cheaper, and people can do more productive work (and be better educated for it too).

But how would they know? It’s like Blade Runner.

This is the new luddite movement.

It really is. Degrowth is destitution and death - just look at Germany.

We need to decouple electricity production from environmental damage - build renewable power and nuclear power station en masse and invest heavily in nuclear fusion.

Have used maybe 2 cheques, bought a condo share but a house is a whole other matter. That said I don’t think it’s impossible, the main issue is just stability, if I had a partner who earnt as much then it would still be tough but not impossible.

But you can absolutely own your residence OP - just look for smaller places, in cheaper areas, and jobs that would offer a good salary : cost of living ratio. You’ll probably have to start with a condo in a HOA, etc. but that’s better than renting.

This is incredible, it feels like parts of the USA are so advanced.

Here in Sweden we’re going backwards, they even took out self-scanning at a lot of supermarkets due to theft.

I remember being like that with Morrowind.
