Quoting: no_information_hereAwesome! I look forward to using it a year or so after it hits public release (I no longer live on the leading edge). Thank-you to everyone who is fixing bugs!

Yeah. I just thought I'll see it with Debian trixie release in 25. :-D

Quoting: d10sfanHopefully the GUI will also be supported, since they just mentioned the CLI in the quote.

If they had (only) a CLI working, making a Linux GUI shouldn't be too hard for someone else.

Quoting: spacemonkeyWhat is a Unity?

I read it was kind of an ancestor of Godot in ancient times...

Quoting: scaineI'm okay on Android with Firefox, for what is worth (not much, I suspect). Maybe you can share some details and we can help fix.

That might be possible! By chance, I'm using the same. And I've got something to experiment: Could you try to access GoL via this link for some days?

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/usercp.php

I did that by chance, and get a not logged in message. When I try to log in from there, I' told I'm already logged in. This doesn't happen on desktop, though, so you could give it a try on mobile.

Quoting: AnanaceI'd definitely suggest trying it out during one of the free fly periods they run if you're interested in space games, one will be coming up next month for their IAE event.

Does this mean Star Citizen can be tried for free sometimes?

Quoting: JarmerThey have a financial incentive not to release anything ever.

What incentive is that? Because, you know, normally you only get paid by customers for a game when you release it. I assume there's some sort of story here?

Yes, and it's absolutely worth reading it up.

They've gathered over 600 million dollars until today (random googled article [External Link] )...

There's no change without some regression...

Despite having the option to keep me logged in enabled, I have to relogin every session on my phone. Unlike with the old system.

Quoting: 14No, but it could stay focused on the topical subjects of Unity and the CEO. When the blame so quickly jumps to a giant systemic thing, it becomes a bit fruitless. The vision is too big to take any kind of action, so it is just complaining because it's fun to complain. Like when someone says, "Ah man, it's Monday!" OK, great. Please don't say that to me every week! That would be tiring. Make sense?

How do you think such giant systemic things have changed in the past? Without talking? Or do you believe we're at the end of history, things are not going to change anymore?

There's also little things people can do around the corner: repair cafés, local currencies, cooperatives, ... These are not going to end capitalism of course, but they're making people a bit less dependent.

Quoting: t3gSo you won't play any non native games even if Proton works well? Sometimes the Windows versions running in Proton are better than native as the native ports tend to be abandoned and locked to old libraries.

I know there's some examples for this, but doing my personal experiment, I tried the ten first games I bought on Steam for Linux (in 2012/2013 if I remember correctly), and every single of them was running without any problem, without any tinkering. So, no, I don't think native ports tend to stop working. And old games tend to be abandoned by the developers on any system.

Quoting: TactikalKittyAllows installing of future Nvidia drivers while the current driver is loaded. This is a BIG improvement and will make upgrading NVidia drivers much easier to the less tech savvy people. This is a big positive in my opinion!

I don't understand this point. When I installed a new driver version, of course the old one was running, because, what else?!? Or is this something the Debian package solved for me?
