Dolphin, the Gamecube and Wii emulator is working on a Vulkan backend

Quoting: badberThere are actually rules that forbid simply discussing the ethics of piracy on this site? Wow. That seems... Orwellian.This thread has me taking the role of insensitive jerk today but I can't believe what I'm seeing.
"comments that claim we are censoring you will be removed."
"Piracy is not cool, we do not support it and don't want to hear/read about it. Keep it out of our comments. Support developers, buy their games, don't be a dick."Being told what (not) to say and what (not) to think does not sit well with me. I can respect that GOL strives to just be an outlet of Linux game news and it does a great job at that, but to think this was an open forum of discussion was apparently a mistake.

Normally I would cede that my posts have nothing to do with with the topic (Vulkan + Dolphin which I am very excited for btw) but the main article discuses the very thing my comments have addressed so I cannot admit that they're unrelated to the topic. Liam invited discussion about piracy with half of the content of this writing. If you don't want people talking about it then don't bring it up in the first place.

Quoting: tuubi@AnxiousInfusion: The thing is, console exclusives are legal and piracy is not, so you might want to take another gander at the GOL rules before posting rants like that. Liam has made it clear that discussions on the ethics or any other aspect of piracy are not welcome.If GOL wants to be censorious of uncomfortable opinions that sends a stronger message about them than it does me. Piracy is only a satellite issue to my main point that platform exclusives have caused this rift in the first place. Whether or not something is legal does not correlate to it being right or wrong. I believe what I'm doing is a just response to industry's abuse of control. I thought Linux were more nuanced in this kind of thing.

Screw the legality. If Nintendo is too shortsighted to recognize me as a customer then they deserve every potential loss of sale that my ROMs have caused. Console manufacturers often enter into contractual agreements with game developers to only develop a game for their consoles, explicitly disallowing its release for PC, to force consumers to buy their consoles in order to play those games. Their whole purpose is to lock consumers into a closed ecosystem and restrict their freedom. This allows console manufacturers to fix prices artificially for their games and peripherals.

Quoting: Avehicle7887Kinda ironic isn't it? Linux is actually more personal than Windows or Mac.The understated truth. And Avehicle, fill out your PC information. The only thing you have listed right now is Mint.

Two Worlds Epic Edition openworld action RPG now on GOG for Linux

Good news only the whole point of bundling WINE with the game should be so that the buyer doesn't even have to think about it. I installed and uninstalled PlayOnLinux and it trashed up my system with leftover WINE folders and menu entries. Any reason they couldn't handle Two Worlds like they did Flat Out?
And so it begins, the Steam Summer Sale is here

Quoting: dmantioneIt does that if you have configured Steam to show Windows games on the front page. If you tell it to show only Linux games, your queue will also contain only Linux games.So where's the setting to change this?

Quoting: Mountain Man"Echo chamber" effect, I think. He probably heard somebody else say it.Quoting: t3gIf Valve is shifting focus away from SteamOS (in favor of VR), what makes you think developers and publishers are going to spend the extra effort if Valve is losing interest?What gave you the idea that Valve is shifting focus away from SteamOS? It's a large and flexible company. They can have multiple focuses.
