Does it just overclock your cpu to introduce instability that might flip the correct bits back to their normal state?

It uses the speed of light to irradiate the ram, increasing the chances of a correcting bit switch.

Do you ever feel like you’re resuscitating a process by pressing Wait over and over? Do you ever find yourself saying: “Perhaps this one click it will have enough processing power to get through!”?

Introducing Resuscitate. With one simple click the operations system will do all that for you while you can replenish your caffeine.

If the process does not return to life and the last save game is from several hours ago Resuscitate goes into AI mode and targets the original developer in the past.

No No the ai feature is based on windows recall, so when you loose your progress, it can use the hundreds of thousands of screenshots to play the game for you

To be honest, that is one rad use cases. Games usually don’t have privacy concern as much as day to day usage. The problem is the fucking recall works by denylist instead of allowlist

For those curious: Gothic 1.

I’ve never heard of it before and it doesn’t look like my type of game. Anyone played it?

It’s actually a great game. But it’s Eurojank to the extereme. If you want a superior experience, play Gothic 2. But it’s still janky, just not as bad as Gothic 1. Gothic 3 I didn’t like at all.

For its time, it was a real classic, and it still has a lot of good elements (English localization is lackluster though, from what I heard.) Back when it was new, I remember all my friends playing it here in Germany.

If you enjoy an open world RPG with a very immersive, believable world, that has basically every character with schedules, motivations and personality, this still delivers more than even most modern games. Controls are… from a time when control schemes weren’t yet standardized and fully figured out. And combat, while appearing like an action-RPG, is actually above all stats-based, armor and weapons being the most important things to unlock content.

But overall, I’d recommend Gothic 2 more, it’s basically “the same but better and more”. It’s definitely worth a look to anyone interested in retro RPGs .

I regard the combat as quite handsy
