Ofcourse, on has to. but in his twitter history he has some negative views on windows.h for example.
He seems to be a straight-forward pro-portability guy. Which I like

Quoting: Eike

Quoting: LeonardKI still cannot grasp how such deals can be legal. If it's obvious (as it is here) that the only problem is a deal which distorts the market (especially *for* the almost-monopoly) then it should be not allowed or invalid imho.

Far from being an expert at this stuff, I'd say that yes, they are near a monopoly in terms of os, but this deal does not create any major disruption of the games market, as can be seen from the loads of Linux games available.

It's not major for sure, but it's unfair anyway.

Quoting: EikeSo Tak is the one to beg to to make the editor not crash on load and save project under non-GNOME environments?

Pretty pleeeease...? :whistle:

Eh, works for me on i3wm.

Downloading the files takes quite long, the server often closes the connection. Just use 'wget -c' to download.

And yes, please update to 5.3 on Linux soon :-)

Quoting: TealDoes anybody else have severe desync issues when trying to play with somebody who's on Windows?

That's sadly a broforce issue it seems. But platform doesn't matter, I can be on Windoze or on Linux and either way there's much desync.

I like that approach for not changing money for doing some 'testing' for them.
I think it's a nice deal: We get a free game, they get free test results.

Also I really like their honesty.
