A top-down shooter game which uses music to generate levels.

Absolutely fantastic! HOWEVER progress is not auto-saved! Who the fuck makes a game where you can abandon everything you’ve played just by pressing a button too many times?!

I’m not sure how to describe this game. It’s an oldschool oldschool point-and-click game.

I think I would have liked this back in the day, but these days I find a bunch of the mechanics and gameplay too frustrating to deal with.

A utility to completely remove one’s display drivers. Useful for being as thorough as possible, for the various cases where leftovers are making proper troubleshooting or reinstallation difficult.

I couldn’t get it to work.

No Man’s Sky – (2016 game) >

NMS requires a “new SSE”. Their listed “i3” requirement doesn’t make any sense for non-intel users and the concept of older CPUs being not just slow but entirely unsupported is new to almost everyone.

CPU-Z does mention instruction sets, and does mention SSE, but it might not be specific enough.

These instructions are basically “just for fun” and are not actually needed. As of 2016-08-14, Hello Games are working on this issue and Steam users are testing alphas.

I didn’t get very far, and I hear that this doesn’t work on Windows 10.

Yet another DPS meter.

It can be made to work quite well. I especially like chat-tab integration.

Although it can be configured to be more simple, the fact that it’s such a large/complex addon makes it vulnerable to breakage and not worth using.

Digital Voice Recorder 1

was chinabuye.com/4gb-digital-stereo-voice-recorder-dictaphone-mp3-player-1

A basic dictaphone and mp3 player.

It records with horrible static with both its in-built and provided microphone, but its mp3 playback is spectacular. Its utterly shit mp3 interface, slow song switching and no shuffle make it basically useless as a player.

I bought this lower-sized version because it mentioned having a lithium battery. It does not, which pisses me off to no end.

While this works, it is definitely not recommended. Buy something else, even if it costs more.

  • There is no name brand or model identification on this device or its documentation.
