Quoting: Beta VersionSwordhaven: Iron Conspiracy has just been released from early access and has a native Linux build.Yep! It's also from Atom Team which is a great dev. I've had this on my wishlist for a LONG time. Very exciting! Probably going to wait for the 1.1 update to play since it adds content to the base game.

Quoting: _wojtekIMHO the issue with Firefox "adopting AI" is way overblown. Yes, AI is not great (especially if it's done with speculative bubble and cash burning by big-tech) and it's questionable ethics wise but… sometimes it's usefull and people do use it…Librewolf
Also what's the alternative? Crappy reskins of chromium? :/

I wound up getting five games last night.
for desktop:
for deck:
Probably most excited for Underrail on desktop. On Deck, last night I tried Grimrock, but unfortunately it's a victim of that god damned steam deck verified bullshit that I hate so much. It says its verified, but it most DEFINITELY IS NOT. Ragehate that shit so much. The controls are so bad it's unplayable. They basically didn't make any kind of control scheme at all.
So I quickly gave up, and will probably refund.
On the other hand, Caravan Sandwich is SUPER FUN! So glad I picked that up!
for desktop:
- Ghostwire Tokyo
- The Forgotten City
- Underrail
for deck:
- Legend of Grimrock 2
- Caravan Sandwich

YES! I just glanced at my wishlist sorted by discount and there's a ton of stuff under $10. Going to probably spend way too much money and just grow the backlog to infinity!

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAH OMG
🤣😂😅
these fools think we are THAT dumb? Man I needed a good laugh this afternoon, thank you :)
FF/mozilla is WAY too far gone for a 5 second bluesky post to make one iota of difference. Librewolf and Zen are both rock solid alternatives. Zen is going great for me right now.

Continuing to make things weird Two Point Museum and Revenge of the Savage Planet do crossovers

This sounds great! I had actually never heard of Revenge of the Savage Planet, so I looked it up: it's a scifi action coop game. Not really my thing, but this is cool they did another update to Museum! Going to have to fire that back up sometime soon.
It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser"

Quoting: tmtvlThe LibreWolf devs, on the other hand, have already stated that they won't be able to keep development going if Mozilla implodes.yeah that's the most worrisome. I wonder about Zen in that case as well. Oh well, once Orion for linux releases, I think I'll be all-in on that on every machine I have (desktop / laptop / tablet / phone).

As a follow up to my own comment LOL:

So Zen is safe (for now). So seems like we have:
librewolf
zen
waterfox
as the privacy focused - fuck you ai - alternatives.

Steam Replay is live and notes only 14% "of playtime spent by all Steam users" was for 2025 releases

89% linux 11% deck is my breakdown.
For me it sucks because the ASSTASTIC star wars outlaws garbage launcher would get stuck open after you exited the game, and steam would still think the game was running when it wasn't. So it logged like a billion sw outlaws hours and has that as my number 1 game even when I only played a tiny bit of it and didn't like it at all. Bleh.
My REAL number 1 played game was Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon. SOOOO GOOD. Absolutely loved it. It deserves that number 1 spot!

Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus II to release in Spring 2026

Please take all the time you want / need! Mechanicus 1 was SOOO good in the mid game, but the end game was pointless and boring since the battles became completely broken and basically didn't work at all. But the style, writing, general gameplay, rpg elements... SO GOOD. I just hope they focus a bit on balance for this one.
