I was about to say you did not state this was a bad thing.

Epic store would be my guess.

Squadron 42 is what they are talking about. And its not out yet. https://starcitizen.tools/Squadron_42

Please keep in mind that 42 was to be the quick thing that was to tie people over until star citizen was further along. It was announced 13 years ago.

14 years and they have almost figured out how to have a reloadable rifle. This whole project has become a scam not due to having nothing people can play, but that they have crowd funded over 1 billion dollars (and counting) without (I feel) any real expectations internally of ever having a finished product.

Chris Roberts has cemented his legacy as the sole person to ruin his own games. In fact he may have done the most damage to space games then anyone else.

Fair enough, its more like 4 tech demos mashed together in a way that none of the 4 like. The core of this game is clearly more spaghetti code then Kerbal Space Program and is missing the vast majority of promised features after 14 years (like reloading apparently).

We know the scope creep killed this project, just that for people who have put in $1000s its hard to admit. The tech debt alone likely makes this game impossible to make stable.

Come on bro, just one more billion, it will be great, just a few more billions and another 20 years…

That’s one example, yes. My point is we like to invent new ways to call out the same shit. Vibe coded projects that get abandoned within half a year are just another example of vaporware, just a new take on the concept.

Vaporware is never not a thing.

No browser is wild. And what does that even mean here? You have to run everything by app now? That sounds like ass.

What is the point of it being linux if it just runs “99% of android apps” but no browser?

I mean, but this is arch.

And a launcher that makes epic look good.

wow, that is a lot for a controller.

yes.

Kinda? Not really

That is cool too I guess, fuck em.

Bring back ddr4, this current stuff suuuuuucks.

Gotta love all the talk of no hardware plateau when we are talking about 10 year old hardware formats being desirable over the current gen stuff.

I am going to be using AM4 until there is a reason to upgrade and honestly? I think I might be on AM4 for another 10 years with how things are going.

Same as all other tax funded projects, by some elected people who likely have no idea about the project.

Joking aside, we will see more of this funding due to governments moving to open source software as they tend to want to fund their own stuff.

Yeah and now I own them all. I did not pay for a single one as VHS is treated as trash most of the time. Don’t play them just have them sitting in a closet due to their stupid giant plastic boxes that become brittle and crunchy when exposed to sunlight (kinda like the corporate ghouls that made them).
