27 S also, I have minor complaints about inconsistent use of 信/訊 and 您/你 in the traditional translation

the latter shows that their difference doesn't really matter in taiwan / southern china, I guess

I'm not entirely sure if the former is a TW/HK thing or a "this was localized for simplified first" thing

the chinese (simplified) voice actor for the loading screens is so over-the-top and dramatic that it sounds like some sort of official announcement straight out of CCTV

he has a strong beijing accent too, the chinese (traditional) has a more taiwanese-sounding mandarin accent

I was going to complain about "chinese (simplified)" and "chinese (traditional)" being two voice languages in civ 6, but it turns out they're actually different

the written translations are different, so the voice acting has to be different as well (though they probably should say 'mandarin')

version 0.14.1. 71 Spontaneous; Context:
so I vaguely remember that, in forums, people used to put a thing in their signature that was, like, "this person has 3 internets!" as a low qualify image and it linked to a website which was some sort of points system?
Query:
I could never find anything about it, does anyone else remember

windows (operating system) 27 S alternatively I can get used to running my 1440p monitor at 100% so that it's less painful, but I find that too small

windows (operating system) 27 S I'd love to switch to linux, and I can, but every X11 program would then run at ridiculously high resolutions (because I have a monitor at 125% DPI and another at 200%) which causes problems

(or every X11 program becomes blurry on both screens)

71 S I want to get back into stellaris, but it's probably already completely different from when I last played it (... late 2021!? wow) and there's an upcoming update that'll make the game even more completely different

guess I'll just play civ
