I halfway wish they didn't fix Forza Horizon 5 at all because then I want to buy it.

Quoting: t3gOh well, the player base is kinda "meh" anyways: https://steamdb.info/app/581320/

If you like the co-op mode against bots, the player base is plenty fine. A squad against bots doesn't have to be very large to be fun. If you find a server with 3 players in it, that's enough.

I played the demo probably like 2 years ago now when it was on itch. I liked it and wanted more. I'll have to pick up the final release soon.

This is great news. I just played through this game for the first time earlier this Fall. I got a point where everything was hunky dory, which meant nothing left that needed doing. I have the GOG version, and I would usually wait for a full release anyway. Looking forward to it.

I already haven't played PUBG for multiple years now due to deleting the Windows install long ago. So, screw them I guess. I'm getting a little tired of hopes going up and down.

I could play on Playstation if I really wanted to, but I do not want to use a controller. And my friends who have a Playstation or not the ones who are ever available.

*sigh* Maybe I need a cup of coffee.

If it wasn't for the AUR, the kids' computers would be on Mint. It feels great. I used to run it on my own main rig years ago. But I'm the tinkering type who keeps a computer as a pet, so I needed to break out into a rolling distro.

QuoteThe restore partition is now updated prior to upgrading the OS. This ensures that, in the unlikely case something goes wrong during an upgrade, the Refresh OS option in the recovery partition can install to the latest release.

I disagree with ruining your backup before you perform a major operation. Other than that, the rest of the updates sound really great! I'm pretty tempted to put POP back onto the System76 laptop.

Quoting: scaineI've been waiting to buy this for... what... two/three years? Loved the first game and I think there were hints/hopes that they'd provide a native build. Now they can't even commit to the simplest change Valve can ask them to make, so I guess it's coming off my wishlist. Really sad. The first game had really fun PvE.

I actually bought it a few weeks ago because Proton reports were saying it was working, even on regular servers. And you know what? It did work for me, for a week or two. I played on the official servers, too. But then I started getting kicked for the anti-cheat client not running. Quite frustrating. So, now, I turn one of the other computers in the house into a temporary, dedicated server when my friends and I want to play. It works... but I didn't want to put that level of effort into it and I'm kinda ticked that it worked just great for a little while.

I can't wait for an updated doughnut tutorial.

What are my thoughts?

Sane defaults are critical for a desktop environment that holds your hand and doesn't give you much choice (MacOS). The product would fail otherwise.

Sane defaults are wonderful but not critical for a desktop with a wealth of customization options, like Plasma for example. But they sure would be welcome.

And hey, you can never win them all. "Sane" defaults will always annoy somebody, so DO NOT go the way of Windows 10 and try to hide all the computer settings behind walls. You could be a power user in Windows 7 but then they treated you like an ignorant bafoon in Windows 10. So if Plasma wants to take more time thinking about user experience and presetting the most popular options, cool. Just don't make it any more difficult to find those settings.
