Um… Yeah? You about Steam Cloud, right?

Besides that, if it’s a none-Steam game you could just… Transfer the same file to the Deck. Did with a couple of games through Google Drive.

I think it’s more like they don’t care.

Finding the right mastodon instance was incredibly annoying. I use it, but barely. Most of the artists I follow are on Bluesky, anyway, which is a lot easier to use.

Wasn’t Firefox starting to implement some bullshit too?

Just request Libre Office Calc to be able to import Excel shortcuts.

Been using it just fine on my Desktop. Blender 3D and Krita are equally as good, and in some cases better, than the subscription based programs. Libre Office has the same functionality as MS Word, but supports more formats. Every other daily use program, such as Firefox or VLC runs just as fine on Linux as it does anywhere else. I’ve had virtually no issues running games from my Steam library, even ones that aren’t officially supported.

Eeeeewww. Why would I want to fuck something so small and limp?

I shit you not, whenever the issues of Microsoft are brought up in my friend group, there is one guy who pops up and defends Microsoft with “Well it’s not a problem for me. I do t see the big deal at all! It’s only a few ads.”

Gimp has been falling behind more and more. Back when 2.0 came out it wasn’t as bad yet, but it got worse as years went on.

You wouldn’t download a Car.

Yes. Yes I would.

Never had issue with this. For my work I’ve always used Blender 3D, Gimp, and Krita. The one thing that used to hold me back from using Linux was my Steam game library, but then Valve introduced Proton and all my reasons to stay on Windows evaporated.

Been a happy Linux user for a few years now.

I haven’t bought it myself yet. When Palworld was all the hype on my discord server I noticed it still was incredibly jank. Clipping, pathing, physics, AI, those sorts of things.

If the issues get polished I’ll probably buy it. But the devs seem to be doing quite well so far.

This was my reaction too when I read the title, complete with curiosity about what they mean with “forever”.

This whole “dead game” rhetoric seems to stem from the sane idea present in capitalism that something must be constantly growing.

People have bought Palworld, and they’ve made their money back and then some. And despite this not being a “live service” type game, it’s still receiving updates and still has active players.

I’ve recently finished playing the entire Ratchet and Clank collection… Well… With the exception of the PS3 spinoffs.

But yeah, was surprised the Deck can actually handle PS3 emulation quite well. I was holding off on playing Rift Apart, but when I got Motorstorm running nicely, a game that previously was completely impossible to run decently, I was convinced I could finally go and play all of R&C.

Now I just got to wait till…

*checks notes

… 2029!?!

Uh… Yeah… 2029 for the conclusion of Ratchet and Clank…

Anyway, Rift Apart ran great after some tweaking. The default settings make the game look fugly.

My Netflix is called Jellyfin With Suspiciously Acquired Media From Dubious Corners of the Internet.

Quite the character you are, aren’t you?

My whole personality? The fuck you smoking to be so hateful towards dark mode? We’re literally here talking about it. You decided to join in with a weird ass take.

It’s easier on my eyes. Which is anecdotal, but a large enough portion of the population use dark modes for the same reason. That is not coincidence, and it’s not something I’d write off as merely being hype.

There’s nothing new about dark mode either. Wikipedia is just slow in the uptake. Besides Wikipedia, dark modes have existed for more than a decade.

Hmm… Under normal circumstances, sure. But this is an odd thing to say in a conversation specifically about the subject.
