Great game, although it can be unforgiving. I've been meaning to jump back into it recently.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI think Arch-based would be the sensible option here. Arch-derived distros just seem way more stable and upgrade-fubar-proof than debian-derived ones.

Really? Debian is the gold standard for stability. The problem is that people want a stable OS with a "bleeding edge" graphics stack, and that's where the house of cards falls over.

Arch can provide the bleeding edge, but it requires that YOU (the end user) know what you're doing.

In the interests of fairness, it should be noted that a game* featuring Donald Trump also works on Linux: https://trumpdonald.org/ [External Link]

* may or may not be a game.

Dwarf Fortress.
I'm currently trying to deal with a site infested with alligators. It's hard without a military and only two picks and single battle ax. I hope I don't have to abandon the site, besides the alligators, it's a pretty good site and I already mapped out my basic base layout. :(

I'm also playing OpenXcom on android.

Quoting: Maath

Quoting: WorMzy

Quoting: EhvisKeyring issues weren't exactly limited to Steam. It was always one of the first things I removed from my system. Which should be a harsh lesson because safety measures that become a nuisance fail to achieve their primary goal.

I also disable/remove keyring software on all my systems. I feel that hiding all your passwords behind one 'master' password is poor security in the first place.

How do you manage your passwords? I have hundreds of passwords, each random and unique.

I trained a neural net [External Link]. ;)

Fortunately I don't have hundreds. I have maybe 20-30? Most are about 20 characters in length though.

TBH, the websites that put artificial limits on the length and accepted characters are the worst for me, I can never remember them. Password resets help there.

I'm genuinely surprised. I saw it on Steam, and it's £15 DLC on top of an already expensive (for an indy) base game. Considering the dev has a strict 'no-sales' policy, I can't see myself ever picking this up, but it clearly has a strong fan base.

Makes me think of Skies of Acadia, definitely one to keep an eye on.

I hope this is a case of "we built the game with cross-platform compatibility in mind, but we just need to optimise and squish some bugs with the Linux version before releasing it", and not a case of "we used all the Windows-only middleware from the start, and now we have to try and retroactively shoehorn Linux support into it"...

Especially since we know that scenario two invariably ends with "it's too hard to replace the Windows-only middleware, so we give up on Linux support".

Dunno if Prison Architect got an update, but it still doesn't launch at all unless I change the launch command to "./PrisonArchitect.x86_64 %command%"
