Quoting: 14I would tell people I'm a CRPG fan, but I sadly didn't get very far in Pillars of Eternity. I'd consider starting over and creating an "easy" character or something, however BG3 is immensely more enjoyable, which I am not done with despite over 100 hours.

I have played 10 hours of PoE but find it very boring. PoE 2 on the other hand was far more fun and polished. One of the best infinity-like games (second only to BG2 in my opinion).

...probably means Obsidian Entertainment are working on a new one don't you think?

They are working on a game in the PoE universe (aowed or something like that) word but not exactly a sequel.

Quoting: MangojuicedrinkerAnd what has Russia done exactly that you are on high alert? Where is their spyware?

This week they put coffins with the national flag in a highly frequented avenue of my city, last week they had defaced a monument to national heroes. A few month ago, some high ranking official of them threatened to blow up a city in my country. While it is not my favorite city, this is where my brother-in-law is living so that would be inconvenient. The list can go on for long, US is not the only country that Russia does not like and Russia have way to show its displeasure.

It was bound to happen with the recent extension of surface attack on Linux. When software was only installed from the repo, the security was manageable, but with the growing availability of software outside the repo system (from AUR to snap, steam, flatpack, curl foo.sh | sudo, ...), there start to be a market for antivirus. It feels like the end of an era.

It's interesting to see the superposition of the slow growth of the Linux Desktop marketshare (1% at Steam Deck release, now 1.2 -1.3%) and the more rapid growth of steam deck (roughly half of Linux marketshare on steam).

Quoting: ssj17vegetaAs a long-standing (K)Ubuntu user for the last 15 years, I was wondering, is Manjaro the "rolling release distro with the power of Arch minus the hassle of reading tons of documentation" or not ?

No. Manjaro is rotten garbage, avoid at all costs.
If you want Arch, use Arch.

Complete and utter bullshit !

I would have agreed with you a few year ago, as time passes I'm more and more agreeing with dpanter.
Arch had some improvement that made Manjaro less and less relevant. (I consider using EOS like using Arch as the difference is tiny).

Quoting: nenoroBG3 aka Horny game made by horny polish devs.

Belgian actually.

No idea about the state of arousal in that country.

Their national dishes is Mussel & Chips. The country is stuck between Netherland (Amsterdam Red light district) and France (self-explanatory). I would say, quite horny :wub:.

Quoting: GuestAlso, I don't want to start a flame war, but isn't Manjaro a bad operating system? I heard multiple Linux people say that it's not good.

I have used Manjaro for years and it was awesome but they tends to have problem with stupid things* so it ended being more trouble than just using Arch directly or Endeavour which is like Manjaro but better. When Endeavour team do a mistake, their apologize on the front page on their website and the mistake is not repeated. I got fed up about things breaking regularly due to Manjaro mismanagement with the solution being shared on the forum by the community.

* For example, they forgot multiple time to renew their SSL which broke package installation and the 2-weeks release cycle ends up being more of a liability than a boon. Apparently they messed up other project on pine too but I'm not sure about that one.

Quoting: bidinouAccording to him, MT is now only 3 persons ? It sounds as if MT had been idle while EE was doing all the job. Strange. Sure, EE did a great job, but the core game we all know and love is the work from MT.

From Deepnigth actually, it was a solo project that eventually gets worked by other MT members. Most of the devs at MT that have worked on Dead Cell has gone to other studio (Shiro Games come to mind). Evil Empire was founded by the marketing department of MT (thus the name) and is the only studio working on Dead Cell for a few years.
Deepnigth has also made the excellent Hamerfest, which was remade by Eternaltwin Eternalfest [External Link].
MT has made so many excellent games (and the Haxe programming language). I miss games like Hordre (40 people have to collaborate over weeks in order to survive a zombie invasion) or Skywar (STR with games going for a few days, click per second is very low ^^) that were social experiments as much as game.

As a side note, by reading Deepnigth blog post, I remembered that I am a lead dev at EternalTwin (not the harder working one through :sad: ). I should stop slacking now that the source code has been released, seems that I'm going to install Haxe tonigth.
