Where did you got that keyboard with the Mint logo? Seems I can only find keyboards with Windows logos for super key.
It's just an expertly matched key replacement. The original keyboard. [External Link] And I believe the Mint key was bought here. [External Link]

I grew up with parents that had hoarding tendencies so I in fact did not clean up just for a picture, this space is always immaculate (I did move the tall chair, though).



I have a soft spot for super tiny computers. Although I have since moved to a bigger tower to fit a graphics card. No picture of that yet.


Saints Row 2 Linux port report, not good

I ran it and found that performance was about as poor as when I ran the game on Windows. Poor... but playable. This is on an A10-7870K, R9 285 w/ Radeon Crimson, 8GB DDR3-2400 and an SSD.

Just to note for others: If you previously played through SR2 on Windows, your Steam cloud save will be incompatible and will have to start a new game.

^^ As much as I personally dislike the genre, generic military dudebro shooters are severely lacking on Linux. This is a welcome addition.

Survival game Rust adds female player models, assigns gender to Steam accounts at random

Quoting: SeegrasFor instance, I look like Link, not Conan. If the game only lets me choose between Duke Nukem and Lara Croft, I tend to pick the one nearer to my proportions, which is Lara Croft.


*dodges Liam's ban

No but seriously, in any game that gives me the choice, I choose robot because screw being a mortal meat sack. Unless the game consists of hours running around in third person, in which case female becomes a candidate.

Minecraft did this exact same thing when they randomly assigned myself and many others the female "Alex" skin.

Shame the community in that game is utterly terrible
It's hard to be upset at this fact once you realize this is just human nature in a high-investment, high-risk environment. The people who play MOBA games are as "toxic" as any other but the difference is that MOBA game design fans the flames much more intensely.

Oh, and the fact that these games skew to a younger demographic certainly doesn't help either.

Enemy Starfighter, the seriously cool looking space shooter is no longer coming to Linux

But if SteamOS gains traction, I will take another look at supporting that.
Back to the old catch 22. We need games like yours in order for it to gain traction in the first place!
