I really felt cheated that no one was insulted, no rants were frothed, no theories conspiracied in this nfo. All we got was relevant information and kindness.
I’m kidding obvs
I love that pirate groups still use ascii text art in their release notes. It’s like a little piece of the world that hasn’t changed in 30 years.
On Linux, you’ll want to install figlet and toilet (both available in the debian repos)
Alternatively you’ve got this online frontend
If you really want to get weird with it you can also play any video in ascii art through libcaca and mplayer. Looks like this
I use Arch btw Endeavour OS so don’t have Debian repos but I will definitely check them out. I especially like the fancy dark mode.
it’s typically just a kind of pixel art with monospaced fonts¹. any characters you see that’s not typically shown on your keyboard (e.g a filled square) can be found in a character selection program in your OS. anything else related to texts, templating and line breaks you can probably find a program somewhere on places like crates.io or gitlab or write something of your own without much trouble.
¹ a monospaced font is a font where every letter and character has the same spacing from each other, and are the easiest to do ascii art. (ascii is just one character table, but you can also gather unicode chars all you want)
And still include cheesy mp3s playing too loud in retro-futuristic-looking installers
I pirated a cracked version of Adobe Acrobat Pro recently. First thing I had to crack in years. It had a sketchy crack installer , with music and everything. Like it was back in the 90s. Of course it worked perfectly lol.
@JasonHears @Bloodyashes I miss the cracktros on old 8 bits and 16 bits computers
Somehow I expect hackers to do cooler stuff these days. I want hackers to release a Switch version of the game.
Im not pre-ordering piracy either.
Im waiting for the reviews.
Go watch people actually play it in twitch or steam or YouTube. See if you like it. Why wait for someone else’s opinion?
To be fair it’s the exact same bypass as any other Steam game. Any steam emulator would work.
Bethesda the publisher does things differently than Bethesda the developer.
As a dev, they know their modding communities keep their games alive long, long past their expiration dates and will fuck with them as little as they possibly can - this takes them from games to household names to legends that everyone knows.
As a publisher pushing products that aren’t intended to be modded, they drink the koolaid.
I disagree about the publishing side somewhat, every now and then the publishing team hits a home run. Like I’ve been playing Ghostwire: Tokyo recently which is published by Bethesda and it’s a pretty good game, and let’s not forget Prey which was an awesome game also published by Bethesda.
So tbey do get it right sometimes.
Lol it was this “https://lemmy.zip/comment/2283511” /\ Did starfield not have denuvo drm. I thought most Bethesda games did. ", I tried to delete it but obviously not lol.
