Quoting: slaapliedjeThese days, I think I'll start doing my writing with Atari Works. :P

Joke aside, look into LaTeX! Such a relief not getting bogged down with formatting vs WYSIWYG.

I recommend this game too! It's hillarious, and has a surprising amount of depth. Each playthrough is very long (I played through one over a week or like 10 days), so it's not a quick pickup. There is meta progression in the form of new "tech".

The game does keep you on your toes at times, though it's generally not very hard. In my first playthrough, I managed to not hit a single disaster, although it did come to chance 2 or 3 times.

Anyway, like I said it's a fun and funny game and the developer is very responsive. They deserve your money!

Quoting: Purple Library GuyAnyway, nearly 4%. I've never seen a number that high for Linux desktop use. And while OK, the latest month was a big jump, that general trend looks really nice. Not only is it an upward slope, but it seems to me that it's slightly upward curving. We are starting to get into traditional MacOS territory; one or two more percentage points and Linux becomes something general software companies may start paying some attention to.

It's interesting to see what happens in January and February. December means more people at home and fewer in the office. This jump could mean that corporations' OS use is biased more towards windows, and home computers more towards Linux.

Quoting: CatKillerChromeOS has been able to run Linux applications in a container for around five years.

I know it can run Linux programs through a container, but this is kind of like Linux only being able to run programs in Wine. Like, there being no "native" Linux layer to write programs for. Which is so weird!

My understanding was that the Linux container thing was only for developers, and not for normal Chromebook users.

It's not at all like running programs through wine. It's a Linux system running Linux apps. It may use a container for better security or compatibility, what's wrong with that? Containers basically just use "namespaces" to isolate apps, and that's a Linux kernel feature.

Lost Ruins is a "must play" with native Linux support? How did I never hear of that?

Anyone played that? Any good?

Just bought this game today, it's hillarious

So, for the first time ever I decided there's no point in fighting it, put the "no tux, no bucks" rule aside, and bought The Witcher 3 that's got so much praise.

A huge download and an hour of fiddling later, couldn't get it to launch. That'll teach me to pay for a game that ignores my platform.

Refunded, and I'll try proton again in 10 years.

Steam Deck status is very helpful thanks. In the future, if you also put a tux icon next to Linux native titles, it'll be even better :)
