To old-timers like me Launchpad, the Canonical-run development hub, is synonymous with Bazaar (bzr), the open-source distribution version control system (VCS) Canonical helped develop. Like GitHub,...
I genuinely liked bzr when I used it. It was my first version control system so maybe that has something to do with it. But I found learning git much harder. RIP bzr. You were a real one 🫡
@gamingonlinux Yeah, it does all seem to be normal internal analytics. I wasn't necessarily making a judgement, just posting an interesting discrepancy I noticed while eating breakfast.
@OhWeh In some cases yes, but it's a valuable tool for people in all fields everywhere to know where to focus, there's a lot of reasons why Analytics are good
We also don’t hide the links to the games we’re writing about (or just not link at all), like we’ve noticed some other sites doing more lately. There’s a section at the bottom every time with clearly labelled store links.
Some sites are too scared to let people click away.
I have stopped going to several review sites for this exact reason! I know, I can easily search for the game after reading the article but having that link is super helpful for so many reasons.
there's also too many sites that just don't *have* a bottom anymore, they just stitch whatever articles they have on the bottom of the first one and keep going. as if it's the content i clicked there for
having played this myself, I can say it's a good game for sure and worth checking out.
There are some parts that don't work, like the dialog is a bit repetitive and I would have appreciated if the overworld player character sprite didn't always face a single direction.
All in all, it's a ol' west themed farming sim with a dash of a twin stick shooter.
I bought the game on GOG at a discount and seem to have a desire to play, but it seems that the game requires grinding (burning up free time). I played a little bit and deleted it. I'll try to play some other time

Off-topic, but someone I know (excitedly) sent me a link to 'cat faced' plant seeds for sale on eBay UK. I've since given myself a headache from eye-rolling at the fact 203 Brits saw AI-generated slop and thought: "wow, these must be real, I'll grow some!". Given the shamelessness of the grift, I hope the actual seeds aren't for some kind of non-native, invasive species...
BUT WAIT — curiosity doesn't kill the cat-faced plant grift!
If any suspicious would-be buyers go to Google to ask if the cat-faced plant is real, Gemini showcases the fake AI-slop pictures in its answer to confirm it is.
There is a plant called 'Cat Face Orchid', but it doesn't look (anything) like that.
The grift predates the AI crap. My mother-in-law saw multicoloured roses seeds on eBay 10 years ago with a photoshopped pic and asked me to order them for her.
I'm a bit dissapointed. It's not much better than just copying your files, since you still need to find the saves and make profiles. Also there's no implementation for something like webdav to save in your own cloud. And it should store it's own config in the same folder since it claims to be portable, but it saves it in the standard ~/.local/share/SaveState/, so it's not really portable...
