Quoting: Liam DaweThanks for the kind words everyone. Was quite sick over the last week, so this was nice to come back and read.

Good to hear you are feeling better. Take care, Liam!

Not quite back to 100% yet, but getting there. Stupid covid.

Quoting: suchEasiest clickbait opportunity I've seen, and just about everyone reporting on this is taking it. Props to Liam for explicitly stating what's up instead of going for the clicks.

I could pull in a vast amount more people and advert revenue and *potentially* supporters with clickbait. But I hate it as much as you all do. I refuse to do it.

Quoting: hardpenguinI understand this is the easiest way to do that but in general it is a very bad idea to directly pipe any script from curl to sudo bash 😅

For random scripts across the internet, absolutely. But one directly from the official source? It's fine.

QuoteUnverified Flatpaks disabled by default (and clearly marked if enabled).

They also are removing reviews for unverified Flatpaks. I don't think this is a good decision, because aren't deb packages unverified? 😂

Well, most .debs you install will be included by either Ubuntu (Canonical) or the Mint team. They can't control the ones you download externally. But this is about clearly showing what's available directly via Flathub, inside their software app, so it makes sense to do so.

Quoting: ssj17vegetaJust a question : do specific changes made in GE get eventually backported into mainstream Proton ?

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but no changes from GE gets backported into Proton since they contain video codecs and other libraries that cannot be distributed unless a license is paid to allow it. This is why Valve doesn't include certain video codecs with Proton (which is those colored bars that appear during cinematic scene) and has to use workarounds to make it play nice.

That's part of it yes, Valve cannot legally provide support for the codecs used, GE works around it.

As for "backported into mainstream Proton", a lot of what is pulled into GE is directly from upstream Proton (and it's related packages) just it's sometimes faster (but again, less testing and no real support).

Quoting: scaineWow, that game seems to have come along leaps and bounds since I played the beta a few years back! Base defence? Melee? Totally different game!

Yeah, it used to be somewhat basic with a great idea. Now it's a great idea with a whole lot of actual game.

Quoting: Pickettf3nceThe "Gulikit KK3 MAX" is a great alternative for those of us in the US or UK.

L3, L4, R3, R4 detachable rear paddles, toggle-able hair triggers, analog triggers, hall-effect joysticks, 8 (or 4) way d-pad, programmable macros, 3 vibration intensities, USB-C rechargeable, addressable RGB, integrated gyroscope, extra buttons to swap between Nintendo and Traditional button layouts. Support for Switch, SteamOS, Android, iOS, MacOS, and windows.

It's a night and day difference between this and an Xbox Series controller.

Do their paddles actually fully work on Linux and Steam Deck without needing an external app like 8bitdo?
