It’s widely agreed upon that the original fresco was not particularly valuable or artistically remarkable. It’s not like somebody messed up the Mona Lisa or a Rembrandt. If I ever happen to be in the area, I’m definitely going to see the thing in person. It’s become quite a tourist magnet, and the town is happy about it.

Games@lemmy.world•Game devs hate this slop too (who's surprised)English
3·23 days ago“I cannot imagine any reason Nvidia would be pursuing this beyond really needing every possible pipeline of every possible industry to be so overflowing with slop that they can keep investors convinced there will indeed be a need for more Nvidia products in the big slop centers being built with people’s retirement funds. This has nothing to do with games, it has nothing to do with game developers, and it has nothing to do with gamers."
That pretty much sums it up, I’d say.

Technology@lemmy.world•MSI's $80 AMD motherboards with DDR4 support swoop in to rescue gamers amid the global RAM crisisEnglish
6·2 months agoFor me, it would be a great option if my B450 board goes belly up. I have 32 gig of DDR4 installed and would prefer to keep the system operational for a couple more years with the 5700X3D.
That said, I don’t quite see why they need to introduce new boards for AM4. Inexpensive B550 has been around for quite a while now.

2·2 months agoWe know that it’s his third DUI case in a courtroom, but how many times did he actually sit behind the wheel shitfaced? I’d assume dozens, if not hundreds of times with varying degrees of alcohol related impairment.

53·2 months agoSo what you’re saying is if we refuse to pay for journalism long enough, the journalists will eventually give up and just work for free? Not have to travel for their investigations, eat nothing and need no private home?

5·2 months agoI wish SR 2 was available as a technically okay version. I have the GOG edition, but that suffers from the horrendous music quality and I believe frame rate issues. I seem to remember that it’s one of those games where they tied physics to hardware clock speeds and it would never run right if you couldn’t play it on the PS 3 or X 360. I will have to look into that because I would love to enjoy all those fantastic cutscenes once again.

2·2 months agoYeah, German rail makes the math look good. On paper, the fast passenger trains run on renewable energy. But then there’s cargo trains on the same tracks, which do not.

Games@lemmy.world•FF7 on Steam Is Being Replaced (And Your Saves Won’t Carry Over)English
2·2 months agoI read about the upcoming new version and pulled the trigger because Steam had the game for 5 €. The idea was that I might get a Steam Deck some time this year so I can play games on my commute. Will I not be able to play the game unless I open a hot spot on my phone?
Which one of them is Legolas and which is Aragorn? Been a while since I’ve watched the movies.

World News@lemmy.world•Berlin mayor faces calls to resign after playing tennis during city blackoutEnglish
10·3 months agoRight. It’s the same as the chancellor slipping into his Wellington boots when there is a flood event. He looks around, listens to people telling him that there is water everywhere, then he says the government will do what they can to help.
He does not (and cannot) do anything to help anyone at that moment, at least more than is already happening, but pretending exactly that is part of the job. If the mayor does not want that part of the job, he’s not fit for it and should be doing something else. Like, coaching tennis or something.
