@rglullis @Rooki (OT: the last paragraph in the post has a couple of typos. I believe it should be TINSTAAFL (also I recommend making it an abbr for the less informed), and there is an “under” that should probably be “understand”)

@HipsterTenZero @chloyster

I only just found this but, in case you’re still testing things, here’s a couple of hints:

1. it is possible to navigate in the dark;
2. it is possible to climb even without stairs, so you can usually get out of subterranean pits even tool-less; it’s extremely rare to get into an actual “save-ender” situation
3. as your tech level progresses, you’ll discover ways to automate most things;
4. do focus on getting ore; there are hints in the rock to where it may be.

@TootSweet this reminds me of https://github.com/philipl/pifs, the filesystem based on the normality of π

@mrdk @mathematics @math@lemmy.ml @math@kbin.social also this might explain why @mau saw some relation to Gray codes in the binary case.

@mrdk @mathematics @math@lemmy.ml @math@kbin.social
oh, interesting. It’s definitely related, although we allow different substrings to start at the same place, and this has a huge impact on the lengths (also it’s not cyclic in our case, but that probably makes things worse).

@SuperSynthia @dvdnet62 I’ll explain in two very simple words.

MOAR MONIES

@marv99 @Jenztsch I’ve also noticed that some games have patch .sh files too

@Telodzrum good to know, but I tend to avoid games without native ports, as a matter of principle. No Tux No Bux.

@hal_5700X

Windows only? 8-(

@glimse (joking aside, I wasn’t aware tags would come through this way, I’ll be more considerate about this in the future).

(I’ll fault lemmy for this though: it reinterprets the HTML as Markdown but then fails at rendering it in the title.)

@rikudou interesting, I actually have uBlock Origin *disabled* on GOG, and even disabled Privacy Badger to see if this was the issue (and reloaded after it). Despite this I see lots of warnings in console about cookies not having the correct CORS setting, so it might just be an issue with the more recent versions of Firefox being more strict in this regard. That’s a good workaround to know until GOG fixes their side, though, thanks.

@glimse Glad to be of service

@iforgotmyinstance @cyborganism so it’s basically Ultima Underworld II?
