It’s not as common now, but lots of desktop computers used to have little piezoelectric speakers that would beep to indicate error codes or catastrophic failure.

They’re called speakers but they’re only good for buzzing at different frequencies instead of accurately replicating source audio. Interestingly, the more advanced ones can be used quite effectively to make ultrasound signals.

You know for a fact that the people doing the largest share of the recovery effort have nothing to do with the decision to have no backups.

…but with the way social/work hierarchies work in SK, it was probably never brought up.

BG3, E33, ER, all amazing games that don’t add live service junk, don’t require online connections, and respect the art of video games. They are all worth their price and then some, to me.

Honestly a lot of my excitement for BF6 was killed by the PIF acquisition of EA.

Looking forward to EA games becoming even worse than they already are. /s
