Graphics in the game actually looks better than the movie. They could just machinima the whole thing in the game engine for a remaster!

Also, didn't watch the movie, but if the soundtrack doesn't include a parody of a certain Queen song I would be so disappointed:

"He's a Killer Bean
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime

Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?"

Quoting: gbudnyThe low sales of Quake 3 for Linux were the main reason that Loki was closed.
The whole thing was somewhat of a clusterfudge as I recall.

Loki decided to sell the native version in an exclusive metal box. Far more expensive than the Windows version. Meanwhile id published Linux binaries to download.

Most people where to excited to wait for the Linux version, simply bought the Windows version and called it a day.

Quoting: DeadCodeThe poor can have lots of cores. I got a Ryzen 2700 for my gaming box for for $150. I've seen Ryzen 1700's for a $120 on ebay. So the poor are not limited in cores.
Wait, even the poor have eight cores now? What does that make me? Destitute? *cries in quadcore*

Wine 6.15 is out seeing more PE library conversions, work for the GDI syscall interface

From looking at the bug report for Final Fantasy it looks like the devs could use some help cleaning out older bug reports for the game. An easy task if you want to help out.

...or we could just create a GoFundMe to hire a hitman to target the kind of people who decide to create game launchers requiring not only a browser component, but also uses ActiveX. 🤮
