"We did all development and testing on one platfrom only and then to our surprise the 'release for other platforms' button resulted in buggy untested builds! those platforms must be horrible!"
By now the biggest warning flag a developer can give is "we will focus on windows for the initial release"

Same with releasing a Linux version. It's all worth so little for us that it's rather annoying to have to do the extra work all the time and carry that weight around.Translation;

As for the rest of the thread - why are people getting upset that Mint ( a Ubuntu fork / "sub distro" ) is choosing to do something differently that their "parent" distro? I mean that's the raison d'être of distro forks.. :|

Quoting: Purple Library GuyFor me it was a ppi issue, no way to tell it what ppi to use so menus etc turned out 4 times smaller than "native" apps.Quoting: KohlyKohlI gave up on snaps. They look awful on a 4k monitor, are slow to start up, and take up way too much space.I can dig the other stuff, but how on earth can they look any different?

Glorious - been eyeing the ideapad 5 4700u for work, but the entire 5 line up is out of stock.
Wonder what it will cost though, in the ideadpad 3 configurator the "free dos" option is about -59€ which incidentally is also the price difference between the 4500u and 4700u :D

Apparently I added this game to my wish list back in 2016, no idea why.. guess they had a pretty hype trailer back then?

Quoting: dpanterI laughed a little upon hearing the news. Then I sighed as I realized this will inevitably cause problems in the coming years. Oh well.Other than the used marked for B450 boards becoming a minefield I fail to see what problems this will cause.
Anyone think AMD learned something this time? :whistle:

Spendt the better part of yesterday troubleshooting this on the wow forums :) surprising how many Linux wow players there are.
But speaking of - the one thing that doesn't work for me with Lutrix in wow (classic) is the in game ticket system, it seems to want to load a webpage but instead just shows notting. Anyone have a fix for that?
