Quoting: tuubi

Quoting: WMan22Mint is probably gonna be an endgame distro for me when it gets Distrobox 1.7.1 in its repos, since 1.7.1 is the version that adds Nvidia driver passthrough support.

Mint 22 will have it, but it's already available for Mint 21 from the official PPA [External Link].

Awesome, thanks for the info, much appreciated. :grin:

Probably gonna wait for Wilma to come out and switch. I'm used to being on arch but I really wanna go for a "I don't have to worry about stuff, it'll just work fine" distro, so I've been branching out, and 1.7.1 on distrobox lets me do that without losing a single important thing I use from the AUR or dependencies I need to build certain things from source.

The only thing I'd want from mint after this is for it to get a KDE Plasma spin and to just keep being an awesome beginner friendly distro in general.

You mean I don't have to do WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=8:0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 %command% with Prototype anymore? Awesome! That means this game is literally easier to run on linux than it is on windows now, since you need to mod this functionality in to get it playable there.

Quoting: jareddmccluskeyHey all! We'll make the subtitles optional for Youtube next time :) Yes, it's quite common on TikTok/YT Shorts to have the captions hardcoded since people scroll through videos on their phone without always having audio available.

Thank you for covering this Liam! Happy to answer any questions.

Any plans for a steam release? Not that I have a problem with itch.io, it is pretty great. It's just that it's only easy on linux to set up an itch.io game if you're using lutris and basically no other launcher (for now, I heard that the Heroic Games Launcher dudes are working on it) since the official itch.io flatpak hasn't had an update in a long time and having it on steam would basically just be a 2 to 3 click install for most people.

I love The Dark Mod, wish it had a flatpak I could download so it would be easy to play and update from my deck.

Alright, I know the drill, buy the original versions before they get delisted in case there's something new that's wrong with the re-release/remaster either on a technical polish level, an artistic level, breaks old mods, or even simply adds unwanted DRM/Anticheat, as tends to be the case.

Quoting: Pyretic

Quoting: WMan22SCUF patent

Out of the loop, what's the SCUF patent?

From my understanding, Basically, one of the reasons that valve isn't selling steam controllers anymore, and are if I'm not mistaken currently in a patent lawsuit with SCUF over having back paddles in the controller, is because SCUF have been known to patent troll people a lot, and this is why back paddles in control schemes are not yet standardized, since they own a patent on "Rear-side control surfaces". [External Link]

Heck yeah finally people making handhelds other than lenovo legion go are starting to understand how necessary the dual touchpads are. That being said, I don't see back paddles on this so this is going to lead to some awkwardness.

Yes, I'm aware of the SCUF patent, I'm really not happy about it, to the point that recently I had an opportunity to buy a SCUF controller and didn't because of that.

Quoting: fenglengshunNice. Heroic remains the GOAT for me. Hope yo see more store supports again at some point.

Yeah! IndieGala, EA and Itch.io are being cooked right now, soon we will have more news about them.

Hell yeah, I've wanted itch.io on Heroic for a while.

I love the idea of this being embedded into a computer in an Immersive Sim type game.
