Some top games under £5 in the Steam Spring Sale 2026

For me it would be Grim Dawn, Into the Breach (when a new PC game Subset Games?) and CARRION. I didn't play the others.

Anyone else who's been saying "Oh but the problem is we aren't being nice enough to the fascists" can take this as a response to them too.
This is what you get when Purple Library Guy get angry and rightly so: a masterclass. ❤️
I would just add, we perfectly know the tactics of the far-right and confusion of ideas is one of them...
And also putting their ideas at the same level of the far-left like "it's extremism either way" is so wrong and dangerous, it shows a profound lack of culture and history.
How many people I heard confusing the two is so heartbreaking, these politics (and big Digital/Social Networks corps participating too) know exactly what they're doing.

Is it really extremist to want to stop immigration and deport some of the current immigrants?
1. Yes, it is.

If so, can I argue that importing them is at the other end of extreme?
No one is "importing" anyone. Please stop referring to people like they were goods.

P.S: There's so much I'd like to say, but I don't too much time right now, and I also promised myself to be more civil.
Arehandoro, it's "funny", I wanted to say exactly the same thing you said! Perfect.
Also the obligatory expected Purple Library Guy comment. ❤️
It's a good way/reminder to see that the majority of people here are not on the eggrole's side and I'm really happy about it.

there's no stopping the moral panic against AI it seems
I must say that your pseudo doesn't really fit you, if I think of what dou/doux means in French (soft, sweet...). 😀

Manjaro Linux looks like it's in trouble with the release of the "Manjaro 2.0 Manifesto"

Quoting: pbMy son is on manjaro and his system breaks on every update. But apparently arch is "too complicated". 😆
You're exaggerating, don't you? ^^
Like many others, It works pretty well for me and I'm using it for 10+ years, so pretty stable in my eyes. Usually when it breaks it's my fault, not really Manjaro's. I'm on XFCE, it seems to be the most stable of all, the KDE folks did have some issues more than once though.
I hope positivity comes out of this, I'm happy with Manjaro and don't plan to change right now.

Discord delay global rollout of age verification to improve transparency and add more options

Quoting: Purple Library GuyAll these people talking Swedish, Finnish, EU solutions . . . don't you non-North Americans realize that doing verification without letting Palantir et al. spy on you is socialism?!
I must admit, I laughed. 😁

Grim Dawn is for me the best H&S from the last years. So it will be even better.

Legends of Rock for me is Guitar Hero III. But alright I will keep an eye on it.

Quoting: williamjcmI've heard a few horror stories about Mattermost, especially from bot developers, and Element is just a client for Matrix, a chat protocol that's so focused on security that they forgot to implement safety features (like banning/muting accounts and servers).
I don't know about banning servers specifically, but banning or muting users/accounts is already available.
Where do you get that from?

Overwatch returns on February 10th with the '2' gone and some massive upgrades

Quoting: tohurI will give Blizzard one thing.. their anti-cheat is mostly server side and the bits client side doesn't require kernel access and should be the standard way to implement anti-cheat as they do with their Warden setup
Yeah I agree, even if I forgot about it... but at the time I was playing Diablo III on Linux I never had issues on that side, what a pleasure! Even though I don't like their constant internet connection DRM.
