So instead of blocking their own operating system and displaying a warning message because a user installed boot loader might affect it's security they decided it was ok to overwrite the user installed software in question and block another user installed operating system instead? Sure hope they had their legal team look into this beforehand.

To be honest I do not care how the publishers clutter "their" product page. It is their loss if they annoy me when i try to buy their product. What I do care about, though, is that there still is no official option to remove the "news" section from "MY" library page... :(

Quoting: Purple Library GuyDoes temporal anti-aliasing smooth out the flow of time? I hadn't noticed time being jerky, but if someone was having that problem I could see it being amazingly useful.Looking at the average decline of eyesight over the time of a persons lifespan one could probably argue it does. Blurred vision for the same person at all stages of life (as TAA tends to produce) could be viewed as smoothing the flow of time - or at least its effects, I guess.

Stealthy platformer Kiyo in need of Linux testers

It does start fine now in native mode (had to switch compatibility mode to 'scout' for the first start, but that is a steam issue after using proton before) Game seems to work nicely otherwise, but the sewers still have the slowdown issue with CPU load in the high 90s and GPU load in turn going toward single digit. Same behavior has been previously observed with Proton.

GLIBC version is also a problem for everything based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (they ship with version 2.35)
Did a quick test with Proton Experimental instead: ran nicely until the game slowed down to a crawl reproducible by the sneak section in the training area CPU usage goes through the roof.
Textboxes need definitely an increase in size - especially button prompts are hard to decipher on 24'.
Very nice intro, though! ;-)

They really did it - Valve added Dwarf as an official Steam tag

Personally I would rather like to see "loading-screen simulator" and "cutscene-movie with walking transitions and quick-time events"(could maybe be shortened to 'tripple-A', if to long) as tags for filtering purposes ;-)

To clarify: this is just meant to help with a fresh install on newer hardware that is not supported by the 5.15 LTS Kernel. Kernel 6.5 has been available via the update manager on existing Mint installations for quite a while.
