Found some more D3D8 games! https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_Direct3D_8_games [External Link]

The ones released fairy recently are most interesting to me, like what decision or technical debt made people still use it in the 2010?!

Quoting: hardpenguinI understand this is the easiest way to do that but in general it is a very bad idea to directly pipe any script from curl to sudo bash 😅
For random scripts across the internet, absolutely. But one directly from the official source? It's fine.
Until someone hijacks the domain or the request itself 🙈

(but yes it is probably fine)

All thanks to Steam Deck - now, can desktop Linux keep up with the momentum?

I wonder how is the adoption rate going or has the device already reached its peak.

Next step: Steam Controller revival! This one is a must have!

...and Steam Machine revival maaaaaaybe? Considering maturity of Steam Deck Verified program and the strong partnership with AMD this is doable now.
