27 million for work they essentially free money. What the bandwith and some hosting expenses. What else would this project cost them?

Personally, I view the remasters like warmed over dog . I believe if they "remaster" these games they need to truly go in and rebuild the game from the gound up. Update the graphics. Update the engine to the newest one used for the Elder Scrolls 6 or Starfield whatever. Update the tools. When remastering, they need to go back to the roots of the game. Restore cut content now that computers can run the assets. For example FNV split up New Vegas city. They can open it up, restore missing or cut side quest etc. Flesh it out a bit. That would be a remaster worth talking about. Not slapping some graphic over the top and calling it a day like they did for Oblivion. Hell, they even told the community not to mod it. Talk about stupid. Nobody is talking about the remasterd Oblivon anymore.

These are people that used to do good? Nope, those that used to do good have been gone for a long time.

https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/ I am not one to look at AI and such, but some of the information coming out about this manager for AI (where you can run many of them under one controler ) is quite interesting. YOu can set this up and then switch out various AIs depending on your need, money (the all importaint tokens) as needed. You can download and setup this system entirely on your own Server and run it on your own without any information being scrapped or used or even recorded by mega corps. Very interesting. Take a chheck on some Youtube videos if you might be intersted. Note since this is a manager for AI. we can discuss all things related to AI on this thread as well. Pluses and of course negatives. (lord knows there are negatives)

It's true. It was likely at least to me. They were raisng pricing and expenses were getting out of hand. Even mega corps like Microsoft have a limit before the stock holders start to ask for the board's heads. I am actually encouraged by the most recent news and more importantly the expressly stated upper management purge. This will save money, and should help make things run smoother and more efficently. It is pretty much basic A,B,C's of running a buisness. Of course I am not going to celebrate right away as this is Microsoft, and if there is anything I've learned about this company is if there is a way to fuck something up, they will head right for it. Now they need to stop releasing vibe coding. It is one thing to use AI to set something up and start testing but quite another to relase it wholesale as a final product.

DUH

A nice command that I wasn't aware of. Helps deeper cleaning of Debian systems. I have tried it and had almost 700 mb of files and programs that were no longer being used. The system is very stable now. No signs of any issues. The command is : sudo apt install deborphan sudo apt purge $(deborphan) It installs a tool that helps more thorough dependency management. Not required as apt get is pretty solid as it is but something extra for those wanting more clean system. Another cleaning command. journalctl --disk-usage ^ checks how much your journal files are taking up. sudo journalctl --vacuum-time=14d ^ this helps clear out older journal files beyond 14 days. I believe just change the 14 to whatever you want and it will clear those out. Want to set and forget, regarding journal files ? sudo journalctl --vacuum-size=500M Set the size to what you want and forget it. Now it should maintain the files as needed. AS I understand it from my reading the journals will continue to grow until cleaned. So an old system can bet more bloated than necessary. I mean you most likely won't need a journal file form last month much less last year. I found some really nice other files but they have the rm command and that is something I won't sperad in open forums due to the fact if you type something wrong, you can delete your entire system. Terriffic command though. I use it to get rid of stuck or stuborn and orphand files (owners no longer present) type stuff. Really fast and powerful. Too much? The simple commands : sudo apt autoremove sudo apt clean should be enough for most users. The above is for those that either have limited space. (say in a VM or small SD) and/or have a desire to clean out things. It can increse performance the cleaner the system is.

Watch Felex the cat and Fantastic Planet. Really trippy and if these are full movies, hard to find.

indeed

Try the discord Modder: DeviantGameMods - Wiki - Discord More activity there.

Glad we were able to help you even if it was just to give you advice on tools and/or processes on how to help you resolve your issue. (Tools and processes are key to learning the modding process and helps greatly in the future when other issues occur. There are some and perhaps in the future you, that can open the records and review what was done and see the conflicts and fix them. Or should I say make a patch that fixes them so that they can use whatever mods they want. There are others that don't use or rarely use others work and instead makes almost everything they use ... minius some texture or mesh. Even then they often tweak it Some of those people are here. )
