Quoting: ChesckHello, normally I buy every humble bundle by maximizing my donation slider to either gaming on linux or steam deck hq using their affiliate links. As a way to support the community a little bit.
But it's not letting me do that this time. Is this the case for everyone else? because it looks from my perspective like humble changed something.

Just tried today and GamingOnLinux doesn't appear in the donation sliders. Guess I'll pass for this time.

Still waiting for a battery charge limit so that I can play plugged in without the battery going to 100% and then remaining stored at 100%, which is harmful :neutral:

This is long overdue ! It's good for you (faster install in principle), good for Valve (less bandwidth use, less stress on their infrastructure) and good for the environment as Internet downloads have a non trivial CO2 footprint.

Quoting: PompesdeskySeems no one said it yet, I'd like a battery charging limit so that I can play with the AC plugged in without the device charging the battery to 100% and leaving it there. When you're exclusively playing plugged in it's a waste of battery life (it would degrade less in the long run if we could set a charge limit at 50 or 70%).

Pretty sure batteries no longer work that way.

Bit of a late reply but lithium ion batteries still work that way. As said by someone else you can’t overcharge them of course, but leaving them full all the time does degrade them prematurely.

Recommended storage capacity is usually between 40 and 60% of SoC, as stated here for example : https://www.uschemicalstorage.com/lithium-ion-battery-storage-requirements/ [External Link]

I want a battery charge limit as you get from nearly every laptop brand. I’m playing plugged in all the time and I hate having my battery fully charged as it reduces its lifetime…

Is any service safe from Lutris?

Amazon at least, itch games can be downloaded manually but there is no easy way to get your amazon games on linux at the moment.

As if Amazon was not already getting too big in too many areas. I say leave that behemoth out of the Linux scope :whistle:

Also got the 18 years of service badge a week ago ^^

Quoting: Muvon53Nice to see, but that they banned Battlefield players on Wine, did not undo and did not apologize, I have not forgotten that either!

From what I've read here and there it's not that clear that they banned Battlefield players only because of them playing through Wine. Some were saying there could have been actual cheaters blaming their bans on WIne use.

I'm playing BFV via Wine since a couple of weeks and it works fine in multiplayer, even better than BF4 where I'm getting kicked now and then for a lack of ping.

Quoting: appetrosyanHow do you get origin to play with lutris?

I just got it going using the installer from the Lutris website (https://lutris.net/games/origin/), it didn't work well for me until a couple of months and now the client works fine apart from randomly showing me offline (but that doesn't prevent from playing).

As for the Battlefield V game itself it seems to work best with the Lutris runner Wine4.2 Jedi something, this runner also provides ping display when playing Battlefield 4, helps in not being kicked from some servers watching for ping.

If you need any more detail you can PM me if you like, I'm not a Linux specialist but I'll try to help if I can :wink:
