  • For these discussions I think it would be good to link relevant communities.

    I don’t think there’s a community just for Monkey Island, but there is !adventuregames@lemm.ee

    I played the first Monkey Island as a kid with my family and still love these games. Great humor, puzzles, and music. #1 is probably still my favorite, all of them are great except maybe #4 I still need to play (now that it works in ScummVM it’s a lot better with modern computers). #2 is probably the hardest game in the series. Tales of Monkey Island is maybe the easiest but still good. Return to Monkey Island was also very good.








  • I would suggest against GMDX for a first time playthrough, it changes A LOT. From the aesthetics, to the gameplay, to the sounds, the mood, the feel of the game, and the viable approaches in each level, there’s so much that’s changed it just isn’t the same game anymore.

    You’re much better off with the Vanilla Fixer tool, Transcended, or Zero Rando (I’m the dev). You could also use Revision and toggle every setting to vanilla, but make sure you also disable the HDTP models, and disable Shifter and Biomod too, and definitely set the maps to vanilla.



  • below 5W, then the charger is considered “slow,” and the message “charging slowly” is shown on the lock screen. If the power is above 7.5W, then it’s considered “fast,” and the “charging rapidly” message is shown instead. If the power is between 5 and 7.5W, then the charger is seen as “normal,” and the lock screen simply says the phone is “charging.”

    Seems to be a purely cosmetic change. I was wondering if the OS has any different behavior when charging quickly (like being more aggressive with running background processes, and running updates/backups) but the article didn’t say anything about that.

    If my phone was only charging at 5 or 6W I’d want to know the charger is garage. That might not even be enough to use the phone without losing battery. What they really need is to rename “slow” to “very slow”, and then 5W to 7.5W could be considered the new “slow”. The intent being that “very slow” is problematically slow (maybe the OS scheduler could pretend the phone is not charging). And “slow” charging would just be for mild inconvenience.

    If only the phone could just tell me the actual number of watts it’s charging at lol. Even if it’s rounded and averaged.
