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

Another one percenter (new releases) here. Guess i am an old man of habit. :)
I really lile this feature. While i get that this is a bummer for people that only play offline, it shows that they don´t collect any data then. Which is something i really like. They easily could have snuck in a service that tracks things offline.
It just keeps getting worse - Firefox to "evolve into a modern AI browser"

Now that i came to love it - can anyone forecast what this would mean for a fork like librewolf?
They surely would take that out, will they? Can they?
I never got this. If i want a hammer, i want a hammer that does one job: hitting nails to where i want them. Nothing else. These amalgamations of one thousand different "features" can never do one thing well.

If this keeps on happening, i'll be back on mutt, lynx & irssi. Oh, and my C64 should arrive soon, they can do interwebs too, i guess.

Very nice. I enjoyed both Lacuna and Between Horizons. Nothing spectacular, but very satisfying and even a bit cozy.

Goonswarm... do they originate from the eve online faction with the same name? If so, then i have no questions anymore. :)
Arch-based distro EndeavourOS gets a new Ganymede release
2 Dec 2025 at 7:58 am UTC
I love this distribution, it runs so nice even on my Legion 5 Pro (AMD/NVIDIA Hybrid). At best i would consider myself as an experienced user, not an expert. But i really can get things done on Endeavour, and i have a good chance to solve problems. I like how you get ushered a bit to use the terminal, so i slowly generate more experience. It is so solid that i will use it for a new PC build that i do for my eldest son, who was on Mint so far.
So i will have to donate to KDE and Endeavour once again. :)
According to Epic CEO Tim Sweeney - game stores don't need an AI label as it will be everywhere

Well, i think i'll never stay away from epic then, thank you. I can´t even be bothered to even look at their freebies anymore.
People tell me AI will be everywhere, but then people tell windows is everywhere.
Maybe, but not here, and i am thankful for that. :)
xorg-server 21.1.21 freshly released to fix some annoying regressions

Quoting: hardpenguinTechnically we ALL use xorg to run games without "native" Wayland compatibility, right?
How so? Can you explain this further?
I have finished Dispatch and now I'm at a loss so I'm going to play it again

Damn, i have to get it then... i noticed three members of the critical role show in there (Matt Mercer, Travis Willingham and Laura Bailey) while playing the demo. So many games... no time. I'll end up like the "old" guy in this game. :)

Hmm, that is interesting. I thought that some of the hytale devs are now working on Vintage Story.
Battlestar Galactica Deadlock is getting delisted starting November 15

Ahhh, hardly anyone remembers the original TV show
You are absolutely correct! While i LOVED the Film (i tried to build those ships from cardboard and stuff), the series was awful. But i really jumped when i heard that Ron Moores version had an Adama played by the former boss of Tubbs and Crocket (my favourite Miami Vice character). And hell did he deliver. All of them, which must have been fantastic for Richard Hatch, who fought a long time to give this universe a proper end.
