Optimum recently did a video on this. After 3000 hours his OLED got very faint burn-in of static UI elements. So it really depends on your use case.

If you’ll use it to game for a couple of hours a day after work, it’s probably gonna be 5 carefree years enjoying the wonderful OLED contrasts before you even start noticing burn-in.

If you (like me) need your monitors to stay on for the entire workday (and then some) - you probably won’t be comfortable with the idea of starting to get noticeable burn-in after only a year of use.

Anyway, that’s pretty much a dealbreaker for me and I’ll probably be getting a MiniLED monitor instead. (Switch&Click recently had a video about this.)

I also like to buy stuff that will last ages, there are still monitors I bought in 2012 happily serving some of my family members. Buying something that will expire even if cared after seems… wasteful?

Perun is my weekly dose of sanity.

For what it’s worth, judging just from your stance about listening to kids: if you ever decided to have kids, I’m quite sure you’d make a better parent than most people who have kids nowadays.

This. There is so much Mozilla and EU can offer each other.

I was excited about the prospects of GVS ten years ago when I first read about it, it’s wild to finally see it become available in an actual device, even if it’s a prototype design.

Wonder how much additional effort it will require from VR content developers to get good positional data for stimulation.

Lemmy je super. Ko da sam na ranim danima reddita.

since she’s a girl what she studies/does professionally isn’t important as she should just do what she loves since “she can just find a good husband to take care of her”.

Anyone saying this is wrong, but a parent saying this about their own daughter is deeply disturbing to me on so many levels. I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

Seems like a deeper issue - there’s not just your daughter with a problem, there is also her father. Maybe to try couples’ counseling with your husband first?

I still have a similar one. It’s a vertical metal rod on a wooden base and a wooden ball on top. There’s a ring that can slide along the rod. The ring has a tiny woodpecker figure mounted on a spring. With the ring in the top position you pull the bird and it starts pecking on the rod, moving the ring downwards with each peck, making that boinging & ticking noise. I used to love it as a kid. I still do. But I used to, too.

EDIT found a video of this exact one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Szhxh1eEEL4

Thank you.

I really don’t see a reason to complain. A lot of comments ask “Why is it just a remaster and not a remake like the first System Shock?”

SS1 first got a remaster, and later a full remake. Both were great. I have no objection for NightDive to take the same approach with SS2.

Hands down one of the best pieces of music to have ever graced Eurovision.

This happens tomorrow if we let Russia win today.

Just a correction: the sequel was released in 1999 as Battlezone 2: Combat Commander. It was a AAA release and picked up the original alternate history storyline 30 years after the events of the first game, with all Earth-based factions now forming an official alliance and fighting a new common threat. It was insanely cool for a teenager back then.

While the sequel was technically far superior, I did miss the cold war tone of US vs Soviet conflict that was present in the first game.

I also loved the interpretation of Greek mythology through the “ancient aliens” lens (Hercules Brigade and all the other stuff, quite along the lines of what Stargate SG1 was doing at the time) that was revealed to you through briefings and pre-mission voiceovers. I think this was also more pronounced in the first game.
