    Since my 2017 Laptop's HDD was on its last leg (and other aspects of the laptop also needed upgrading), I finally got it upgraded and got a SSD in it.

     

    Was not expecting that boot times would be this fast. Around 10s on what was an old clunker of a laptop feels great.

     

    If anyone else is still using a HDD, do yourself a favor and get a SSD

    I just realized something interesting.

     

    Romero has released more maps since 2016 than he did in Doom 1/UD and Doom 2 combined back in the 90s.

     

    He has released 21 maps since his return (Tech Gone Bad, Phobos Mission Control, One Humanity, Sigil 1 and 2).

      It was way harder to make maps back then tho, so I imagine the decades of experience plus modern tools and utilities make it much more manageable for him.

      @Endless That is true of course. Also it's not just level design work he did in 90s. He also did coding work (like writing the level editor) and probably worked to the weapon/monster balancing tweaks and other stuff as well.

       

      But I still find it an interesting nonetheless that, statistically speaking, he has made more maps since his return (with Hellion still to come) compared to the number of maps he made during Doom's development heyday.

    For the sake of curiosity, I decided to try out the political compass test after reading this old (and now closed) thread. And this is what I got.

    Economic Left/Right: -1.5
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -1.74

     

    Surprisingly was not expecting to be this much left, since in the past, I would always get it dead center on both economic and social scale.

      Based on this post, I also did the political compass test just now, and I surprised myself slightly also. I am moderately conservative politically, though I am quite anti big-government and very pro certain social issues that are defined as 'leftist', so those things defined my political compass more than my conservatism I guess. Thank you for the heads up.1421745521_politicalcompassdotorg2023-05-30013921.png.8fada9c7dfe11db51498b2273a6ec39b.png

      Oh shi... for some reason I skipped or didn't get the notification of your reply on Thursday. And only realized you are back after you liked my comment just now.

       

      Glad to have you back dude :')

    Is anyone else having any technical issues on doomworld? I seem to be able to open and login on DW just fine (even able to seem my own and other member profiles just fine), but I am not able to open/view any thread. I get the "This page isn't working at the moment" HTTP error 500 when I open any thread.

      Change your theme to wide or white (using the dropdown at the bottom of the page), then it works

    No I didn't turn into a communist. It's the Soviet faction logo from Command & Conquer Red Alert 3. And the background is from Red Alert 2.

     

    It's a temporary logo change. I might revert back in sometime.

    Hello there. So the guy with the "most powerful" Doom source port has blessed Doomworld with their presence. We feel honored (not 😆)

      You can 'thank' the legendary Mike L. from the Microsoft Store for that source port. I just played the thing!
