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.

NVIDIA "unlaunching" the RTX 4080 12GB, apparently 4090 Ti cancelled due to melting

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.

The latest Steam Hardware Survey is out

For the first time ever, I finally saw the Steam survey pop up while in Ubuntu.

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.

Darkest Dungeon, a popular gothic roguelike RPG now on Linux with a public Beta
28 Mar 2016 at 8:01 pm UTC

I'm on this like wheat on bread, yo!

Quoting: liamdaweThe issues arise with people buying before a Linux version is out...
Oh, great. Now I feel bad. Thanks. :><:

edit: first very quick impressions.

I bought the game back when it was in late beta, shortly before I started spending most of my time in Linux. Because of that, I've only got a couple hours playtime in with it. Enough to know the basics of the game, and to know how well it ran in Windows back when.

Other than it seeming to take a few seconds too long launching (not a big deal, but long enough for me to take note of it), it runs flawlessly. I've gone through the intro section, goofed around in the hamlet, put together a team, and started a trip into the ruins. I've noticed no bugs, crashes, hitches, hiccups or anything else worth mentioning.

It's not the most hardware intensive game ever, but a good port is a good port, and this one seems to be a good port.

Looks like Darkest Dungeon may finally release for Linux next week

I've spent the last week punching myself in the face, preparing for this game.

...I think I'm ready.
