Quoting: rustybroomhandleAnd yeah, of course there's value in being on Steam. Doesn't stop people complaining about it.Apart from some really delusional developers, I think everyone realizes the value of the Steam service, it's just that they don't want to give a 30% cut for this value. It's nothing surprising or new, people are always complaining about prices of anything. But does it ever work? Lowering the price wouldn't stop anyone from complaining - it will be either "still too much", or it will only work for some time before the topic returns. The only working factor is competition, and Steam competitors are still in the woods.

Not sure about the game, but the trailer music is great!

Quoting: Stupendous ManYou might want to be careful with this upgrade, it didn't boot for me on my Ryzen 3200G box and I had to reinstall and downgrade to the earlier release.How did you downgrade? I wiped ChimeraOS and installed a more standard Arch flavour after all proton games stopped working in a new version and they said that "downgrades are not supported [External Link]".
The ChimeraOS creator was super helpful on the Discord though so no complaints, just something to keep in mind.

"A browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier"
They said it themselves, they put minimal effort other than reskin chromium, heh heh.
I guess it's useful for developers to have it on Linux for testing web pages, other than that I have no idea.

I'm enjoying this trend and I wish more aged platformers were remastered and re-released.

Quoting: GuppyHave they automated the hardware survey? I don't think I've had the popup in a couple of years now 🤔I got one yesterday, so probably not.

Nice move. The first game already has a ScummVM engine, but maybe with the code now open, it will be easier to maintain/improve it (currently it mentions minor glitches). However there is no engine for LBA2. Fingers crossed. :whistle:
The Kubuntu Focus M2 sounds like a great all-rounder laptop

Quoting: inckieIs this another shitty Clevo machine?Probably, like all the other "custom" laptops. I learnt the hard way to avoid these - one component broke and there were *no* spare parts, anywhere. Or repair specs. Or even bios images (that's how the service killed it for good). The laptop now gathers dust in the basement.
