I’ve never played The Crew nor The Crew 2, but I hate this guilt-by-association type of argument with every fiber of my heart.

Not because it defends Ubisoft (in this case), but because it completely accepts the asshole’s premise that the successor of a product is necessarily a valid substitute for the product itself, and the latter is not worth keeping around - it’s like eating an apple that has been cooked in an oven at 300°C for 5 hours, then arguing that apples are bad for your health.

See:

• Overwatch vs Overwatch 2
• Halo CE/2/3/W/ODST/R vs Halo 4/5/I (idk about H:W2)
• Halo: CE vs Halo: CEA (yes I’m listing Halo twice, sue me)
• Risk Of Rain vs Risk Of Rain 2 (both are very good games, but they are completely different from each other)
• Helldivers vs Helldivers 2 (same as above)

Weird how after saying this, Goldblum proceeded to morb into a dinosaur and jurass all over the park

Thanks, I was trained by learned from the best Reddit comments

You know, I’m not strong willed enough to keep going, but this comment thread is starting to remind me of this post

Because big

That’s a trick question. Feathers have lower density than bowling balls; a ton of feathers would have a larger volume compared to the same mass in bowling ball, thus the feathers are heavier

Yes, but you need to accept all cookies when prompted

Our hero is valiantly defending the enemy’s weapon cache after taking it over, we should be thankful

Website’s broken, could you google it for me?

No, the shoot hole is the face of the cylinder while the barrel is where they’re hiding the gun

When I first played FL I thought it came out with all the others *^*

I don’t outright dislike X4, but IMO it feels too… streamlined, in a way. You’ve got less wares, less ships, less sectors, no jumpdrive (yes I see the reasoning, no I still want the jumpdrive), the Xenon lost their aesthetic just to look like Mass Effect reapers, and fuckers stole my magnificently redundant ship classes. Can’t have ship in Detroit.

X3: Terran Conflict.

Yes, we got X3FL in 2021 AND X4, but X4 is a very different game and X3FL is just a heavily scripted X3AP (more or less).

It’s a more-than-me years old game with a lot of mods that keep it enjoyable to day – as “enjoyable” as it can be, that janky piece o’ junk – but I feel about it the same way I feel about Halo 2: imagine what it could have been, if the devs had the resources they could have today. (if you say “X4” I’m going to fucking flip)

Hey now, they did tone down the Batarian racism after Mass Effect 2.

… mostly.

I don’t think so, a cold birra often goes well with pizza

I haven’t played E:D so I can’t really make comparisons, but maybe X3/X4 can pique your interest?
I don’t think they can justify a home cockpit setup, they’re also kinda hard to get into (especially X3, you can’t get far without a guide), but hey, there’s a combined 1.5% chance that you haven’t heard of them and that you’ll enjoy at least one of them if you don’t care much about graphics. Or voice acting. Or UI/UX.

Can’t ever have anything nice, huh.

It was illegal, it violated multiple federal :.|:;

I think GNOME’s filechooser is the GTK one (never used it so I’m not sure), mine looks like this:

It’s entirely possible that Firefox changed and now uses XDG portals by default, I configured it like this a long time ago.

As for how to configure it, I honestly don’t know.
It was a combination of messing with widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal on about:config, and changing XDG envvars and dotfiles; both by following several conflicting Reddit and bbs.archlinux.org posts.

XDG portal filechooser for Firefox: the KDE implementation uses Dolphin, which is full of features and I use most of them; the default GTK one is mildly infuriating to use and looks ugly too, but getting the browser to use the portal I want was a nightmare - especially since GTK discontinued the GTK_USE_PORTAL envvar.
The related Firefox config entries make no sense either.
