Luckily there hasn't been a single game with anti-cheat that blocks Linux that I've had any interest in playing. as I don't play multiplayer games. A shame for people who want these games though.

>2038 is the hard cut-off date for 32-bit applications. After this date, 32-bit applications will not be able to measure time accurately.

At least we know about this so far in advanced, and since it's Linux it likely won't blow up on the news or anything and create public panic like Y2K did. I was 15 when 2000 happened and it was insane how much end of the world stuff was going on to do with Y2K that ended up not happening. Never want to go through that again.

I got a lifetime premium account before they stopped offering those several years ago. So I hope it doesn't go downhill anytime soon. If it does ever, what could replace it? Moddb?

Postal 2 is a guilty pleasure that I feel really terrible for playing when I do, but I use it to blow off steam when I'm upset so I'm looking forward to this. Mostly because it won't crash every few minutes unlike the original.

I don't want them to do Silent Hill 3. I'm afraid they will censor it to hell (no pun intended) due to the subject matter. Silent Hill 3 is my favorite, followed by 4. I'm actually not super into the 2nd one like everyone is. Silent Hill 1 deserved a remake more than any of them though, due to how dated it was. Though I'm worried it will lose that oppressivly heavy and dark setting and graphics.

Good. Better than EA/Codemasters at least.
Hopefully they don't switch to Unreal Engine and keep using their own engine for next WRC Game.
Its 2027 and onwards though. What happens with 2026 season then i wonder. Can Nacon update their Generations game to include 2026 season as DLC for example or something...

Completely disagree. The previous WRC games were crap that came across as budget titles. It's sad that they are apparently the only ones who would take the license.

It's a shame there won't be another EA WRC game. It had been the best one in a long time. Guess EA wants Codemasters to make F1 games only from now on. I still hate that EA bought them.

So yes, clearly it can happen because it is happening. Although not from government, except probably in China. And not to suppress the right--to the contrary, all the social media and search algorithms seem to systematically promote right wing viewpoints, particularly the far right because their stridency promotes "engagement" (and in one certain case, because the owner is a fascist).

Meanwhile, if this EU initiative does things that bias the results returned by search engines that use it, in a way that's unacceptable to search engine companies' right wing CEOs, then I guess they won't use it. So I don't think you need to worry too much about right wing viewpoints ceasing to have a massive advantage.

Well, at least I have the comfort of knowing that the far-right will speed up the extinction of the human race with their climate change denial so that they'll destroy themselves and not get to rule things for too terribly long.

About time. Kinda ridiculous that it's taken this long. But better late than never.
