Could we be witnessing the impact of the Lenovo/Dell/System76/etc... developer strategy? It's all based on Ubuntu and developers are not having much of an impact on the gamers count, from my understanding. They probably work from home, atm, and have access to their "workstation" every hour of the day... Just a guess and I'm not sure it makes total sense either.

Long live to GOL!

Now is the perfect time to pour a glass of Wine! :wink:

Metro:Exodus (55% off) and Doom Eternal (50% off). That's tempting...

No news about Metro:Exodus' Linux port, yet?

Thing is, I'm quite sure it is something that Google is working on. Read somewhere that it might happen with the release of Android 11. For the moment, I'm reluctant to mess with my Nvidia shield; my family is relying on it to listen to the IPTV app, so I will just be patient.

Looking forward to the day when the Stadia app will be available on all Android TV boxes. In my case, my Nvidia Shield is where I would like to run it.

This game seems nice, my kids will enjoy it for sure.

Quoting: MohandevirYeah... Talking about old hardware... Did I mentionned that I have played The Bard's Tale and Wizardry on an Apple IIE, with the green monochrome screen? :grin:

Anybody on a VIC-20? :smile:

Couple questions here :
1.Where do you people FIND that stuff ?!
2.How can you afford that stuff ?
:huh:

Excellent question! In my case I "exploited" my older brother who bought that computer for his programmation courses. He's 13 years older than me so... :smile:

What programming course is he taking that he needs an Apple 2 ? Really curios now.

Did you miss this was decades ago?

Which leads me to another question:
Might it be possible that Linux especially appeals to (us) old farts?

If those devices still work after all that time i am more than impresse they still work.
I suspected some people boguht them out of nostalgia/collection status.

Funny thing... My brother kept the Apple IIe... Last time he checked (3 or 4 years ago), it was still working. It's his master piece in what he calls his "Museum of Horrors". :grin:

Quoting: MohandevirTalking about GoG... It seems, but I'm not sure what to make of that, that one of the threads requesting a Linux port of the GoG Galaxy client just got changed to "In progress"... What does that could mean?

This has been "in progress" for years.

Sad... I had no way of knowing. Didn't followed this thread that often... Someone pointed out it just changed, but it seems it was false.

You being a GoG "veteran" I have no doubt that you know better than many.

No idea... I was 6 or 7 at the time... Now you know my age. :smile:

Basic maybe?
