I’d like to think there’s a difference between “keeping up with the times” and chasing whatever new thing gets advertised.

Unless you’re really into number chasing with benchmarks then just keep using whatever you like until something YOU find better comes along.

Also I’m GenZ and just use whatever comes with the DE, it’s not an old person thing shakes fist.

Not all the time, some mod creators lock their stuff behind a paywall. But also a few modders a while back started taking down their own mods official downloads so it was up to others to keep archives.

That’s what a lot of people were using the ModPiracy subreddit for but it kept being taken down and migrating to new subs.

Awesome! thanks, I’m sorta living under a rock these days when it goes to video game news.

As someone who doesn’t follow the Halo series, what is this? an older canned game or some new unreleased thing?

TempleOS is the only OS corpos won’t touch, It’s protected by a holy shield!

My personal experience has been hit n miss.

Was using one 4TB Seagate for 11 years then bought a newer model to replace it since I thought it was gonna die any day. That new one died within 6 months. The old one still works although I don’t use it for for anything important now.

I didn’t clock much on my Steamdeck time as it doesn’t seem to count non-steam games…

Honestly my Steamdeck has kinda become a bigger beefier PSP for me, mostly PS2 games or PC racing games of that era.

The average person thinks digital = magic! and marketers/governments, etc are well aware of that, and will abuse that fact anytime they can.

Ever had to explain to someone that “the cloud” isn’t a physical cloud in the sky keeping their passwords & nudes safe? I have way too many times.

Somehow missed your reply until now.

They dropped support on the Linux version forever ago and moved to Easy Anticheat which DOES support being used through Proton but the devs won’t enable it.

I agree but it’s sadly the new standard for mainstream gamers to be drip fed “content” like crack so if they feel a games lacking behind they go somewhere else to get their easy fix.

I’ve played games for 100s more hours after their last DLC release just because I loved the gameplay. So it makes my eye twitch when my people I know load into a new game and immediately comb over the battlepass n skins to see if it’s “worth their time”

Game hasn’t received an update in what will be a year later this month.

The main dev keeps promising a huge update is in the works but won’t so much as drop a hotfix for obvious flaws in the game currently. They made more than enough money to bring on extra staff but just didn’t.

BUT you can still easily find games most days on the main modes (assuming you live in the US/EU) And the games been left in a pretty decent state.

I’ve clocked in 319hours and still think Battlebit has been the best FPS game we’ve seen in nearly a decade. Which is why it’s so frustrating the way the devs are handling it currently…

For me that game was Rust and it was more ‘Maybe for the best if I don’t touch that game again’

I play Plutonium BO2 and MW3 semi regularly. Would play more BO1 but it kinda runs like shit through Wine/Proton sadly…

I installed it through Lutris and also had issues with updates until I switched the wine version to GE-Proton 9-20 and that seemed to fix that.

And yeah getting used to the Linux file directory is kinda a pain at first but something you gotta get used to. In Wine games you’ll find your root directory listed as Z: you should be able to find your Steam directory in.

/home/YOURUSERNAME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/

Or if you have other drives mounted you should know where you mounted them, It’s normally in /run/media/

Another tip would be to cap your FPS to something like 125 because them old Cod games start acting weird at higher frame rates, and you want to keep the FPS as consistent as you can since the mouse sensitive is also tied to the frame rate for some stupid reason!

Didn’t have a dedicated day for it but I used to hang out around the office my mother worked at if dad was on late shift.

I was put “in charge” of the printer and paper shredder.

I ended up actually working at that company in my early 20s after my mother had already left. The Boss and I.T. guy who still worked there joked about my “previous experience at the job”.

Gonna steal an idea from Karl Pilkington and leave a dishwasher somewhere on Mars for one of the rovers to find.

That has to be something with the Guix package of LibreWolf because I’ve never see that site using the version from the AUR.

And my installs of UBlock and Dark Reader are both up to date with the latest github releases.

I couldn’t find anything about the Guix package on the official LibreWolf website so I’m assuming it’s not properly supported, They do offer an Appimage or you can compile it from source

14yo me spent all day waiting for extended cut of the original Dawn of the Dead to download only to find out at 2am it was an Italian dub.

At least my experience on KDE the system theme option barely seems to work for GTK programs.

Even tho I specifically went out of my way to get a dark GTK theme in the system settings.

Since it separates Manjaro I’d assume it also does it for other Arch based distros with their own branding like Endeavour or Artix?

Steam on Linux has it’s own version of wine(proton) built in.

So you can launch Windows games through the Linux native Steam client.
