Nexus Mods is under new ownership

Lifetime premium accounts do have a tendency to become, NOT lifetime when companies change hands.

Either way, if the new owners are not smart and try to do some shady stuff that modders don't like. They will loose the community and open up a easy win for any competitor. (which I feel Nexus needs, a good competitor to keep em honest).

IMO Moddb is not a decent competitor, its too old school with the way it sorts things on its website. Feels like I'm on a genocities site, lol

I live in Australia, really shouldn't affect us... but it will, because F them Aussies!

Is it going to get the UE5 treatment, so we can all enjoy playing it at 30fps, real retro style!

OrangePi Neo gaming handheld with Manjaro Linux delayed until Q3 2025 with no exact date

Seems like a decent design if not a bit compact which could cause some handling issues.

Was this meant to have a Z1 Extreme? Not sure how much faster Z2 is..

Apparently AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, those are insanely expensive chips, its actually cheaper to get a faster discrete GPU laptop then one of those new AMD AI APU's! I don't know what AMD was thinking. or perhaps its inflated pricing on purpose.

They should probably switch to SteamOS if they can, using Manjaro seems unnecessary unless they plan to make a very specific handheld steam client version like some other Distro's have.

It's crazy how big the world size is in this game. Something modern RPG's could never replicate. Of cause the idea of large worlds was dropped because they couldn't populate them with fun stuff.

I'll get Everspace2 once they bundle it with DLC with a decent discount.

GE-Proton 10-2 brings some essential fixes for Windows games on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck

If you have the vk_hdr_layer package for kwin, it may screw up HDR for some people, especially those using ITM feature in Gamescope, will cause artifacting etc.. So something to be wary of when updating to Proton10.

Denuvo will lock you out of games on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Deck if you keep changing Proton versions

It seems when you reinstall a prefix from scratch, game drm often consider it a brand new PC so denuvo thinks your using it on multiple PC's.

It's all very backwards way of thinking and quite surprising denuvo still has this problem. I've known about it before and have hit it the issue once in the past.
