What's with all the indie games

so lately ive noticed that most all the free games on ps+ have become indie games while they used to be high quality shooters like crysis and they had theif but now they had a game called unfinished swan and it was terrible they should have called it unfinished game but i think the reason for this is because ps4 users have to have ps+ to play online and while thats fine because they have to pay for servers and other stuff like that and its only fair to give back. i feel lucky i bought a ps3 instead of an xbox because the online was free. but i mean we pay millions to ps+ now, weve done our part now sony needs to stop holding us hostage to ps+ or pay us back in some other way than these crappy indie games there giving us now

Excellent, a new "what's with all the indie games" thread!

    What up with all the screen freezes since the updates?

    Sorry to say your installation must have been unsuccessful.
    A normal installation would not do this.
    Uninstall, run the cleanscript* and try again (maybe your AV is too agressive).

    Look under the Window menu bar item.
    There are half a dozen presets or you can save and recall your own custom settings.

  • What's with all the --force-ing?

    The recent and somehow-still-ongoing glibc debacle has revealed more than ever that a good number of users actually use Pacman's --force flag even though it's repeatedly advised against pretty much everywhere on the archlinux.org domain. I'm just curious...are there other common Linux package managers (or other software) that encourage the use of --force such that they might lull new Pacman users into a false sense of security in performing it? Other systems with which it is not uncommon to use --force? I just find the whole situation a bit surprising.
    Is there any other way to convince these users that --force is *not* ok unless the devs recommend it, without resorting to hand-holding?
    (sorry, not sure if this belongs in Arch or GNU/Linux Discussion, feel free to move it mods)

    Or people just don't use rm regularly. At least for me, since I have a graphical file manager, I use pacman a lot more than rm.
    I use 'rm -rf' a lot and still have a running system with all the important files intact.

    It reminds me of an old joke:
    A young executive was leaving the office late one evening when he found the CEO standing in front of a shredder with a piece of paper in his hand.
    "Listen," said the CEO, "this is a very sensitive and important document here, and my secretary has gone for the night. Can you make this thing work?"
    "Certainly," said the young executive. He turned the machine on, inserted the paper, and pressed the start button.
    "Excellent, excellent!" said the CEO as his paper disappeared inside the machine.
    "I just need one copy."

  • What's with all the Data?

    Hello everyone, my Dell Inspirion 1521 laptop with 136gigs of disk space seems to only have 25.3 gigs free. This is strange because all the programs that show up under "Programs and Features" only add up to about 7gigs and all the folders in my OS (C disk only add up to a few gigabites of data! Somewhere on my computer there must be something taking up all that space but it seems that Microsoft doesn't want me to know about it xD. Any advice on how to get rid of useless files and needless windows "updates" would be great, thanks!

    This question was asked before several times on Dell's community with that model , try searching the Dell Community Forums for the answer, otherwise what do spyware and antivirus scans produce?

  • Well what happened with all the protesting ???

    Not a **bleep** thing all the few that complained didn't help one bit. Our crys were never heard and if they were nothing will be done any sooner then they want anyways. Time to get away from Samsung phones, I want to go back to LG and will wait for the Revolution to come out. {word filter avoidance} off Samsung

    Well I see nobody commented on this posting because I am right all your complaining you whiners didn't get you anything, your all gutless fools for thinking anything else from Verizon which they dont owe you anything so stop complaining.
      Your posts do not warrant any response. You probably work for Verizon....   There are numerous posts out there about people standing up for what they want, and carriers have listened to them and delivered. Other phones that were not scheduled to get the Froyo update were given the update because they complained to their provider. The American way is about people standing up for what they believe in, to question the people in charge, and to take a stand when it is necessary. It is also the American way if they choose not to, but they would have no complaint either way. People are just tired of being lied to. I was in a Verizon store just the other day and the salesman are STILL TELLING PEOPLE THAT FROYO FOR THE FASCINATE WILL BE OUT SOON, just to make the sale.  Should they not be held to their words?
      You need not go around posting that people are gutless fools for doing something that they belive in. Where would we be today if this type of activity was not taken in our past?

  • What's with all the "name"s-short, long, user, computer?

    I'm a long time Mac user but not lots of experience with multiple user accounts.
    Trying to migrate from MB with one account to MBA; on about the 7th or 10th erase & install. Various methods of getting the data over are not working.
    I'd like to have a new "home" account name, but the more I read the more confused I'm getting-there are so many different "name"s in the sharing/accounts windows I'm not sure if they are variations of each other or all different. Is there a table somewhere that tells the meaning of/difference among
    short name
    long name
    home folder name
    computer name
    user name
    account name
    etc?
    Apparently I can't migrate MB=MBA into a new short name, so have to do some trickery with advanced settings, or migrate then make a new account, drag/copy/from then delete the old account. What junk!
    You'd a thunk Apple would know people would want to migrate a home folder to new machine and change the name of it along the way.
    Phew. Not impressed so far with the ease of transition to MBA. 3 days in the works now.

    Please look over http://pondini.org/OSX/Setup.html towards the bottom where he discusses that. Once you have the data moved into the account you want you can remove the account you don't want by using the System Preferences - Users & Account. The remaining account must be an administrators account though.

  • If Macs "just work"...what's with all the posts??

    I've been thinking of making the switch to a 24inch imac...I've been doing alot of research and stumbled across the forums here. I gotta say I was pretty shocked to see the amount of issues people are having and also the amount of people viewing some of these problems. I'm by no means naive enough to think that ALL Macs are perfect and I realize this forum only represents a portion of Mac users, but its making me a little hesitent. I'd hate to spend all that money and end up with a great looking machine that doesn't work...if that were the case, would'nt I just get another PC? Should I be worried about making the switch??
    Thanks in advance

    Coming here to get an opinion about issues people are having with their Macs is kind of like going to a hospital to concluding that the entire human race is sick.
    I have been using Macs a long time and have also am using a Dell PC and have used some other PC"s in the past. I have to say that the Mac operating system just seems to not get in my way as much as Windows, which is what most PC's use. I have also, based on my experiences and not on any empirical data, found that it seems to be much easier for the end user to troubleshoot problems on a Mac, compared to a PC. The Macs do seem to "just work".
    I don't know of anyone who has made the switch and regretted it, but I guess it could and probably has happened.
    Think about the type of things you do with your computer and the software you use and like and then make sure that whichever type you choose, it meets your needs.
    Where I work I have both a Mac and a PC. I have to have the PC to do two things. First to run my security cameras. I could not find a Mac program that would do what I want with the cameras. Second, to run our fueling system. There simply was no Mac equivalent for that function. I do everything else, databases, spreadsheets, etc. on my Mac.

  • ICS - what's with all the backward stuff?

    In the email app, the trash can switches from left to right depending whether you're looking at a message list or an individual message.
    If you start to compose an email and abandon it, "OK" is on the right and "Cancel" is on the left - the opposite of how it used to be, and of every other software I've ever seen.
    When answering the phone, the position of red and green buttons is reversed depending whether the screen is locked when the call comes in.
    No consistency at all. What gives?

    Yes, but my question is why? I'm hoping someone intelligent from Verizon reads these boards and will realize how stupid these particular changes were before the next update.
      You have to remember that the main OS functions DO NOT come from Verizon, they come from Google. They setup the OS, so these "Gesture Changes" came from them. They are trying to align it with their Tablet market so there is 1 build of an OS for phone and tablet.
      I'm sorry that you do not like these changes, but it makes it interesting learning the subtle differences....

  • What is with all the Junk Mail in .mac?????

    I have had .mac for a very long time now and can't believe the amount of Junk mail I am receiving? I assumed (bad thing to do) that .mac was a bit more secure than this??? If I want to change my .mac address and do the arduous changes to all connected to my address... can I? Does anyone know if you can change out of your current address and get a new one during your year of subscription?
    Love to know anyones thoughts???

    Copied from How .Mac filters spam.
    The .Mac mail servers filter spam, but some unwanted messages may still get through.
    No single strategy is completely effective when it comes to managing Unsolicited Bulk Email (UBE), also known as "spam". People who are intent on sending spam are ingenious at coming up with ways around any filtration schemes.
    Also, check Why was I "spammed" at my .Mac Mail address?
    You can contact the administrator of the domain that sent the spam. It is likely that the actions of the spammer are a violation of the Internet service provider's (ISP) Acceptable Use Policy. You can also report any spam to .Mac system administrators by sending the message along with full source headers to [email protected] A .Mac administrator will examine the message and headers. If the message is verified to be spam, that message will be filtered at the server before it reaches your mailbox.

  • What's with all the albums?!!!

    This is probably a FAQ, and I apologise if so.
    How come, when I go to find a photo using Finder, the iPhoto folder opens to another folder with the year on it, which then opens to yet another folder, which then opens to half a dozen albums, which then opens to even more folders, EVERY ONE OF WHICH GIVES NO INDICATION OF WHAT PHOTO FILES ARE WITHIN!! (sorry, not shouting, just emphasising.)
    Why the heck can't we just find a darn picture right where we put it?!

    PP, the desired result is to quickly find a photo that I want, without opening folder "2007", then folder "09", then folder "01", then folder "Not there yet", ad infinitum.
    And I do work with iPhoto. Like when I want to import a picture into iPhoto, so I can use it in iMovie. Every time, I encounter folder after folder with number names that I certainly never created! And every one has its own thumbnail folder. It's maddening.
    Why can't I just find my picture "My dog Fido" in the "pictures" folder, where I saved it in the first place? Why does iPhoto hide it away in some obscure folder, buried deep in the Library folders?!
    (As you can guess, it's driving me batty.)

  • What's with all the controllers?

    Could somebody please make clear to me what is the purpose of the Apple-provided controller classes such as NSObjectController, NSViewController, and NSWindowController? I am fairly familiar with the MVC design pattern, but I am not sure what task these classes accomplish that would ordinarily be done manually by a cocoa programmer.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi--
    If you haven't checked out CocoaDev, there's a page there with a pretty good discussion of NSWindowControllers.
    Also, if you look at the Cocoa Bindings topic, particularly in the "What Are Cocoa Bindings?" section, you'll see some discussion of why controllers are useful.
    Also, look at the Document-based applications overview, especially the FAQs. There's a discussion there of NSWindowControllers.
    Maybe you'll find something there that's useful. I think, in general, the idea behind these controllers is that they relieve you of having to program the behavior they take care of. So your code is easier to maintain and more likely to be bug free.
    If you haven't checked it out yet, look at Aaron Hillegass' Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X (the third edition). It's very good, and has an example of using a NSWindowController to load a nib file, and a NSViewController to manage view swapping on a window.
    As for:
    It seems like some questions get arbitrarily ignored on these forums.
    I don't think it's necessarily arbitrary, just that I think it's often harder to answer "philosophical" questions like yours.

  • What is with all the Flash updates?

    Is Flash so buggy it needs to be patched every couple of weeks? Every time I boot my system (about once every week or so) there seems to be a Flash update needed!

    Flash Player isn't your typical piece of software.  There are very few programs on your computer that process inherently untrusted content.  It's basically Flash Player and your web browser.  They run code that other people write, and due to the nature of the web, run code that may be constructed by a malicious attacker.
    Like the major browsers, Flash Player in on a pretty fast, regular update cadence.  This ensures that new security work and functional fixes get to you quickly, and that when a vulnerability is discovered in the wild, that it's fixed and patched in the shortest possible amount of time.  Most current browsers are on a 6-week major release cycle, and Internet Explorer is on a 4-week cycle for alignment with Microsoft Patch Tuesday.  Because we ship everywhere in tandem, we're also aligned with the fastest player, which in this case is Microsoft.
    Adobe works with industry, academic and government intelligence and research to proactively identify potential vulnerabilities and harden the player based on emerging research and intelligence.  Both Flash Player and JavaScript are powered by purpose-built virtual machines and just-in-time compilers.  There's a tremendous amount of investment being made on offensive research in this area, and Adobe works closely with the small cadre of experts in the industry (Microsoft, Google, Mozilla, etc) to both share intelligence and deploy emerging best practices to the extent possible.  They're very complex and challenging computer science problems.  Flash Player source is regularly reviewed and audited by the best researchers in the field, and we're continually finding new ways to harden the player against new attacks while balancing performance and real-world requirements.
    So, you get a monthly Flash Player update which includes functional patches and security changes, and in the event that we or our extensive network of industry partners discovers something being abused in the field, we'll release additional out-of-cycle patches to address those issues quickly and responsibly.
    If you don't want to deal with Flash Player updates, there are a couple options available to you:
    1.) Enable Automatic Updates - Go to Control Panel > Flash Player > Advanced > Allow Adobe to install updatesYou'll still get a quarterly update that requires manual installation, but all of the intermediate updates, including any emergency patches will get downloaded and applied automatically
    2.) Use Google Chrome (on any platform) or Internet Explorer on Win8+
    Both browsers include Flash Player as a built-in component of the browser, and Flash updates are distributed automatically through the browser's update system (or Windows Update, respectively)
    There's nothing separate that you ever need to download or manage.  It's just handled by the browser's pipeline.

  • What is with all the blank space on the sides of the browser?

    Well, I was forced into Firefox 9, and 1/4 of the screen on the right, and 1/4 on the left, is blank white space. Why would that happen? Plus, I have to change the zoom everytime I load a new page.
    Can anyone help? Using Win7 on a laptop with a display at 1920 x 1080.

  • What's with all the complaints?

    Dear Readers,
    Are all of these complaints isolated cases (e.g. factory defects)? because if not, Apple has a serious problem on their hands...
    Mine has had its ups and downs since I first opened the box three months ago but I always managed to get it back up and running without tech support... still, I'm getting them ups and downs but they're ok... my shuffle is still ok.
    The only sad thought in my mind is that I have to say bye-bye to my iPod once it's run out of charges... am I right? there's an end of the road for my iPod? if that's the case, well, it has been a good product for me, both for music and data storage... (it's a better alternative to floppies and CDs)... hey, who am I to complain? from where I come from, iPods are not cheap... imagine my delight when I got one for a birthday gift.
    I still think it's a good product. Too bad my birthday was a little before Apple released the Nano... that would have been my present... and I would have rolled all over the floor.
    One point of query though... can I toss my lanyard in the washing machine? :P
    Kahlil

    Reading a forum like this will give the impression that the product is worse than it actually is. That's because people come here when they have problems. To get a real idea of how bad the shuffle is you'd have to do surveys on people who bought one.
    I'm not sure if the shuffle has a "replaceable" battery but I'm sure there will be some way to make it last longer by the time your warranty expires. There's already a product that uses regular batteries to extend the shuffle's battery life.
    The lanyard should be washable but you might want to do it by hand because there are metal bits in the cap that might rust. Remember to remove the shuffle before washing the lanyard!
