I imagined Stadia would produce Linux game programming experienced developers - now it consumes them... :-(
Well, I guess in the end it might be both.

Athenaeum, the FOSS game launcher and updater has a big new release

Quoting: Purple Library GuyHuh. Potentially interesting I guess, but my "replacement for Steam" for FOSS games is called "My distro's repository" and the "software manager" GUI thing.
I don't know software managers to put software into own categories or such. (I think there are some to at least site a screenshot?)

Quoting: PatolaGame developers/publishers might not be the most honest people, but giving power to politicians to rule over the gaming market is the worst possible thing to do.
We're giving politicians their power, that's why I prefer to have more power in the hand of politicians than companies.

Wut?!? Scanner sounded like a nice, valvish way to do this, but you have to buy the scanner - and then have to take the crate in any case?!?

Valve are expanding Steam Remote Play with defaults for popular games and a new API

Quoting: HoriIn any case, I was most surprised with Black Mesa, since it's an FPS game. It played flawlessly.
That's wow. I'd even find this surprising with all wired up...

My laptop is pretty…pants


Even too "pants" (had to look up this one :) ) to act as a client for the streaming?

What's that? Another Steam Client Beta update? With a Linux platform filter? Yes it is

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI hope they finish this beta stage before October 28.
You still can opt out...?

Quoting: EikeThey already do take their attitude about women elsewhere
Oh dear :(
It's not about women, it's about a pervasive and corrupting ideological proposition that disguises itself behind good intentions.
Fear Thou Not.
Nobody is taking anything away from you.

Quoting: Liam DaweOh give it a damn rest. It's a game, it's not supposed to be entirely factual, just get over it already. This attitude some people have towards women in games is just so pathetic. Take it elsewhere.
They already do take their attitude about women elsewhere. Greta can sing a song about it. I prefered they would stick it somewhere else. Sorry.

Quoting: DorritAs to the game itself, it shows females as part of a British special forces unit, not vaguely "women in military roles".
Which part of "alternative WW2 setting" didn't you understand? The "alternative", I guess?

And where's your definition of racism which concerns female characters? I guess I can take your "Facts are for bigots" literally?
