Quoting: MohandevirBe careful. Because you have a great experience doesn't mean it's the same for everyone.

The same is true for any recommendation. See Linus Sebastian for how stable Pop_OS! is! :tongue:

Quoting: finaldestEA is another corp that will NEVER EVER get any money from me ever again.

This is why I don't buy games which are multiplayer only games and especially online service games with anti cheat DRM.

And changing the Terms and Conditions of sale after a sale has occurred, This needs to be challenged in court as its getting out of hand.

There is no legal basis to sue. Linux was almost certainly not on the supported OS list. The fact that you chose to by the game and try to run it on an unsupported system is not covered by the contract of sale.

Quoting: emphyAs if the potential legal threat isn't going to factor largely into anyone's thinking.

The "that's a nice life you've got there, it'd be a shame if anything were to happen to it" will always be implied when dealing with nintendo about such things.

Because all it takes is one crazy who's willing to risk it all to actually win to completely fuck Nintendo through precedent. They are in the wrong, and so actually going to court is risky.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThen couldn't it just display the ads and then paint over them with the background colour? I don't care if they're there, I just care if I see them.

The trouble is, this isn't just about not seeing ads. Personally, I don't care about ads too much. What I care about is the privacy invasion that comes from centralised ad networks. This is why I use ad block and consequently, your solutions wouldn't work.

If Google and FB stopped trying to track me across the whole damn internet then I'd give them they ad impressions. As it is, they are so invasive that, they just get blocked.

Quoting: LoftyThe Steam deck is probably the most ergonomic game controller ever made, why change the formula ¯\_( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉)_/¯

Completely disagree. While the Steam Deck controller isn't bad, it's far too cramped to be ideal. It's a compromise because it's being bolted onto a small form factor computing device.
The Steam Controller was my personal favourite, but then I know a lot of people found it too large. The PS4 controller is a good compromise. PS5 seems fine too. The older XBox controllers were good too. I find new ones to be oddly shaped.

How curiius that Valheim and Satisfactory should both release what is essentially the same beta version within a few days of each other.

Quoting: DribbleondoI can tell when Overkill are using PR speak to cover up for a a lie, and this is one of those times.

Is that when their lips are moving? :D

Quoting: miltoid19I must agree that the AirJet would be ideal in the steam deck, but my understanding is that at least for the near future the AirJet is targeted at premium models since the cost (at least for now) is quite high and this contradicts Valves' way of trying to keep the price low... Referring to the Quote “painful to hit” requiring the margins.

How much do these things cost? Even if it bumped the cost by £5, or £10, is anyone going to care, or even notice?

Whatever else happens, the music made me smile.
