Any skins I got in the game were simple color swaps, nothing really worth thinking about. Even if there are some better ones somewhere it’s all just superficial fluff.

That was my impression as well. The only problem if it's not updated at all is it's going to stop working sooner or later.

Hmm, is this any different to what what already in Gnome? I have this in Ubuntu 20.04, _maybe_ I did enable an experimental setting in dconf. If so, that would just be them enabling it for everyone, right?

Last time I tried it, it made stuff pretty blurry.

Great writeup, Phil, thanks for taking the time to do this. Observing trends is always very interesting and GOL's stats are a splendid tool.

I wonder how his Linux transition is going. He hasn’t written anything about it since the initial posts.

I put a lot of hours into HL: Alyx today, so many in fact I had to charge the controllers twice! It's splendid, but I'm now at a point it's becoming a little repetitive, I hope it throws something new my way soon. The way things are, I won't be able to play until next weekend most likely, unfortunately.

I've also been playing a little of Seers Isle, a very pretty VN. It's quite good story-wise, it's been a pleasant diversion after all the head crabs.

As for controllers, I just use all the Dualshocks 4 I have around the house. I gave up on the Steam Controller, no right stick is game-breaking for me.

Sometimes you can’t because new hardware from AMD comes out and support is nowhere to be seen in the kernel and/or mesa and you get it in bits and pieces months later. Both Intel and Nvidia manage to sort out their shit way in advance (Intel) or by launch date (Nvidia) and AMD can’t. That’s the real issue here.

This is a dangerous slope.

What’s the difference between this and telling a male writer he can’t write a female character because he’s not one?
