Quoting: sarmadPiracy has little to do with this. The vast majority of those who use Linux have no problem shelling out $100 for a Windows license; they choose Linux for reasons other than cost. The reality is that the culture of open source almost does not exist in China, nor anywhere else outside of Europe and North America. For some reason people there simply do not understand the reason why openness is important, or just do not care.

Well, there's larger problems than software freedoms in some parts of the world outside US and Europe to be fair. (Of course, that's also true here, but to a lesser and less acute way.)

Quoting: elmapulif you try to use linux in an non english lang, and got any error message, you cant find almost any help online.

For command line tools, there's an easy workaround, from the top of my head:

LANG=C apt install nonsense

Quoting: Pengling

Quoting: EikeI'm struggling with the title. Normally, it would be "live a life", right? What does "live a live" mean?

Looking at the katakana on the original Super Famicom box, the intended pronunciation of both instances of "Live" is how you would say it in the phrase "Live on stage!" (i.e., rhymes with "Hive").

Since the English logo on the same box renders the second "Live" as a mirror-image, I assume that the idea is for "Live A Live" to be read as "Live, Alive" in either direction, but this just might be one of those mysteries of 1990s semi-decorative English in gaming, instead! :grin:

I didn't expect someone to come along who can read these... symbols! :) Thanks!

Quoting: MangojuicedrinkerIMO VR for only gaming purpose is degeneracy.

Let me just say that VR seems to be pushing buttons on some people.

Quoting: elmapulanyway, where is the GPU data on the survey? to be more specific the model used on steamdeck...

As expected, a drop as well:
AMD AMD Custom GPU 0405 0.18% -0.09%
It's not like the Chinese would install Windows 10 on their masses of new Steam Decks...

Quoting: Marlockyou can change this behaviour for specific memorized wifis on the phone, maybe worth trying for you home network

I don't even got a connection, just yesterday, when I asked the phone app to please look for a PC and the PC program to please look for a phone.

File transfer ist okish for me at the moment - device discovery is not even that. More like hit and miss. And it's still a favourite of mine. Looking forward for the improvements!

Quoting: rea987As it seems there isn't a .dll or .exe within the script. Can anyone try it with the native version? I really want to play this one without VR nonsense natively. :whistle:

I understand "I can't afford it", "I get nausea" and even, to a lesser degree, "I don't want it". But "VR nonsense" is, well... nonsense. I don't own a VR device, but having tried it, it feels like climbing into the monitor and being inside the action after decades of just sitting on front of it and watching it. It's not suitable for everything, but where it is, it's a new level of gaming, comparable maybe to the change from pure text to images and from those to moving graphics. But I guess there's been people complaining about these "moving graphics nonsense" as well...
