Wasteland 3 characters can have super powerful quirks

Quoting: Eike
Quoting: einherjarI am not that eager to support a MS owned company with my money. We can be sure, that they will not support Linux in the future anyways. So it is better to give my money to companies that probably support Linux in the future.
The steam page does not show a Linux sign btw.
Hm. They won't support Linux for sure if we'd all do that. I would buy a good Linux game from Microsoft anytime.
Call me a pessimist, but I consider they will not do anyways. Just look at Minecraft Bedrock for example.

Deep Rock Galactic leaves Early Access, works well with Steam Play on Linux

Not working voice is kinda showstopper in a coop game. Looks interesting though, but IMHO 30€ is too much (especially with reduced function aka voice chat).

Egosoft, developer of X4: Foundations talks up moving to Blender and appreciating open source

I really like to give my money to devs like these guys. I bought the "X4: Foundations Collector's Edition - Extra Content" and don't regret a cent. Even if the game was not in a very good shape when I bought it.

But spending money on a great game like this and support cool devs like these is a good way to empty my wallet :-)

Manjaro Linux and Star Labs team up for their Linux-focused hardware

Quoting: einherjarVery interesting news!
That is really nice.

Edit: Oh, no german keyboard is offered :(:(
Tuxedo computers would be a good place to look for a German keyboard. They also have one with Manjaro on it, but they are pricier.
I know them, but they are much too pricey, for my purpose.
I want a small Linux Notebook to replace the tablet of my daughter. She uses an Galaxy Tab 3 and because of the bloatware, that is instantly pushed on it, it is nearly unusable now.

I do not want to buy another android tablet for her, but a small NB would be ok. It is weird, even google apps that are not supported any more, can not be uninstalled and there is no good custom rom to be found.

So the small Star Lite Mk II would have been a great choice.

Quoting: drlambI hope this company continues to grow and release new products. If the Lite had a lower-end Ryzen chip and supported NVMe drives (I don't know that it doesn't) I'd be all over it.

What exactly is wrong with the used Intel CPU?

Quoting: RedneckI streamed some Saints Row 4 2 hours ago and I will be mostly playing csgo with my team! We're always on the lookout for new players. DM if interested!
What does team mean in your case?
Is it more like a clan, with training and so on? Or is it more to have a few friendly guys to play with from time to time?

Quoting: KuJoPUBG in Stadia.

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER. :D
Can you play that together with friends on Steam in some way?
No, PUBG on Stadia is Stadia to Stadia with keyboard/mouse or Stadia + Consoles if you're using gamepad.
So but at least you should have PUBG on Linux and a cheater free experience I guess.
I am sure, cheats will come (perhaps some Chrome plugins that fake a Controller while playing with mouse and keyboard or whatever)

Is there a way to play with friends that are on Stadia?
