ProtonPlus is a new in-development Proton version manager

Quoting: GuestThe layout isn't final at all. I've just updated to make it more usable. I know user experience is important, but right now I'm more focused on the backend rather then the frontend. I'll make sure to keep that in my mind for a future update tho. Thanks you for your feedback :)
On the plus side, it already covers the basics quite well. Once you get the games list functional, it'll do just about everything ProtonUp QT can do in a nicer looking package.

Quoting: dibzFor some reason I always find the layouts of GTK3 apps to be confusing. This looks like no exception, unfortunately.
I usually find them cleaner and easier to navigate, but I have been goofing around with Gnome for awhile now, and have gotten used to the ebb and flow of their stuff.

Though they could have done a better job of labeling things in the app. "Installed Tools" should be "Install Tools," showing that's the button you click to download a new version of Proton. The entries below that should be labeled as the currently installed tools per the launcher listed above.

Quoting: uzayDoes that mean you can run Linux inside TF2 through Proton in Linux? 🤔
Someone needs to try this NOW!

I'd do it, but I'm lazy.

Quoting: Mountain ManOne of Joe Biden's many whoppers has already been flagged with an "additional context" notice. That would have never happened under the previous leadership.
I'm pretty sure our news sources fact checking our presidents has been a thing since at least the late 18th century.

Quoting: Sakuretsu"We tried to scam our costumers but got a lotta backlash in return because they're not as dumb as we'd like them to be."
Dunno why they're backtracking so heavily here. They could've made a helluva marketing campaign over this little issue.

Quoting: SamsaiDepends on the village. Some villages wish they had 4 washer/drier combos worth of electronics.
For the sake of conversation, we'll assume we're all talking about those well to do, up on the latest trends villages here. One of those places where everyone has a satellite dish up on their roof.

Quoting: SamsaiYeah, we are at the point where it would be better to have cooler and smaller stuff, yet as nanometers go smaller, the gaming systems slowly turn into watercooled mainframes that eat as much electricity as small villages :grin:
Hey, comeon now. There's no reason to over-exaggerate here. It doesn't require as much electricity as a small village. It uses, maybe, enough energy to power 4 washer/dryer combos, max.

That's barely even half of a small village.

Hyper Light Drifter released, some thoughts
31 Mar 2016 at 5:02 pm UTC

I've managed to work my way to the boss on the northern end of the map, and so far, the game has run flawlessly for me.

I did have some issues with my Steam controller, but it was the usual "I need to run sudo chmod 666 /dev/uinput" again moreso than any problem with the game itself.
