Some dude ran a public telnet server, which upon connecting, would present to you the entirety of Star Wars: A New Hope in ASCII. It was glorious.

Geralt could go on a Gwent tour.. but what's this? Upon entering this new land of Walachia, some bandits stole his Gwent deck while he was asleep in his camp. And he had the ultra rare nude Triss card in it, too! Open, The Witcher 4: a quest for cards and vengeance.

I think its only adding UI features :). I count mobile friendly view as a feature, thought its only a visual change. The one I use.

Absolutely. Any time I see 65NNN, it triggers a sanity check.
Nice round numbers, like something taking exactly 10000 ms to return a result? Yeah I'll bet thats not natural and theres a timeout set by a human doing that.

Although I am more of a hobbyist and novice, I moved to Affinity Photo and it's covered all my use cases. I have to relearn some things but its worth it to be able to use modern software you own.

I remember it being in W2 as well. Its just been so long since I've played either, I really cant articulate it well why I liked it so much. I just know I did but didn't feel the same way about W3. In the end, I loved each of the games because they all had their own thing going for them. I don't have a favorite.

I run on bare metal because I'm more comfortable with it that way but I think there's regularly updated containers that do just what you want. linuxserver/qbittorrent looks like a good bet.

Hour hand -> hour = n
Minute hand -> minute = n * 5
It makes sense, there's just an algorithm attached to each pointer.

Hour -> 3 = 3
Minute -> 3 = 3 * 5 = 15

What I appreciated with the first Witcher is seeing the story from all sides and I dont recall it feeling black and white. Humans were shown as hating elves for their attacks, but then you get to the elves and learn their part of why they were attacking. The writing feels raw with hints of racism, vulgarism and the like. It felt right for the setting.
The Botching story line (the barron) in W3 was probably my favorite in that game and that was a side quest. I didnt feel the same momentum going forward in the main story of W3.

Running qBittorrent in headless mode (qbittorrent-nox running on my own server) with VueTorrent skin. This is the view in a browser.

 

My little nuc server. Had to change some bios configs today so I busted out the old LCD and since it was there already, did a package update for the hell of it.
