Glitchy things and video games. What even is anything anymore?

For folks with ADHD, like myself, slow talking video essays are a special kind of hell.

Ah yes, I forgot folks with ADHD are also insane. /s

I’m not a fan of Bethesda in the slightest anymore, and this drives it home for me. I get that they want to update their game, good on them for updating an old game. But they release broken games that need mods to become playable. If they want to keep that ecosystem they need to quit, “breaking userspace” so to speak.

They make broken games. You can stand up for “It just works” Todd as much as you want. He’s not going to give you a special corporate shill badge and pat you on the head.

Steam is only installed on one of my computers, I have at least four running Linux. Not to mention plenty of Linux users don’t game at all, so probably not.

@Glitchington@lemmy.world avatar

I’m happy to see more Linux gamers don’t get me wrong. Steam is specifically gathering specs on people who game, the other stat counter (that reports 4% Linux use) is based on what people’s browsers are reporting.

@Glitchington@lemmy.world avatar

The problem with days old threads is I never remember the context. Looks like they were asking if Steams data would be more reliable. Tbh, I think Steam is great for gaming stats, not for general use stats. Statcounter supposedly uses what the browser reports when participating websites are visited.

From the archlinux.org news post on the issue.

Arch does not directly link openssh to liblzma, and thus this attack vector is not possible.

I feel like they called themselves Godzilla but had to change it so they decided on Gojira. They have some heavy environmentalist themes to their lyrics so, makes sense.

Edit: they did, and they were legally compelled to change their name. Gojira is fine apparently. 👍

When I was younger I wasn’t sad because I was online, I was online because I was sad and felt out of place in reality.

The cough isn’t the cause of the cold, it’s a symptom.

Also, I gained more empathy the older I got. So you probably need a bigger data set than your own experiences.

I think it’s less the network’s fault, and more on where someone chooses to spend their time on the network. If you’re on Facebook, it is in their interest to piss you off so you stay and fight. But plenty of other tools exist to connect folks online without being manipulative.

It’s like fire, nuclear energy, or most any other tool. Use it right and everyone benefits, use it wrong and people get hurt.

“Kids are dumb because iPads, they should be reading instead.”

Ah yes, sorry I forgot you cannot read anything on an iPad. Ever since Apple outlawed reading back in 1997, we’ve been on a downhill slide to unga bunga caveman times.

Sounds like the parental controls aren’t being used properly, more than it being the fault of technology.

Glitchington ,
@Glitchington@lemmy.world avatar

Can’t blame the technology itself for the lack of oversight from parents. Put a lock on the games, limit play time, or better yet give your kids a monthly allowance for an e-reader app. Make them excited to read.

It’s a Timber Wolf from Battletech/MechWarrior also known as a Mad Cat because on radar, it would flicker between Marauder (MAD), and Catapult (CAT).

This appears to be more geared towards experimentation. Super interesting and more relevant to the article for sure though!

The core similarity of all these platforms is content aggregation. The differences come down to how that content is served, categorized, and interacted with. Federation ideally distributes content to relevant communities, based on interest, regardless of platform preference.

Edit: Also, people you don’t like will be on every site. We have tools to democratically tell those people we don’t like their ideas, so using them will make every platform better.

Most likely. From Software traditionally make some of the best DLC in the industry.

Yeah, this seems like the business equivalent of a slap in the face to the original devs.

Most devs have expressed they’d rather you pirate than use key sites. With the anti-cheat they used that maybe difficult, but a key site purchase usually doesn’t pay the developer a dime. Where if you hadn’t entered a key, you could still purchase the game, even on sale, and support the developers.

Idk, I’ve never made enough money to live on and at this point never expect to. I’d rather do something I’m passionate about while I die under capitalism, than sit here feeling useless while I die under capitalism. Shit is depressing and unsustainable.

Never even heard of The Register before right now. Been using Firefox for most of my life. This checks out.

I’ve always read it as a mix of “Federated Reddit” and “Fed up with Reddit”.

Right? I just switched to Linux full time. I was excited for this game, now it may as well not exist for me.

It’s something I can’t avoid, however I can limit it a bit. Elden Ring shipping with EAC is unfortunate, but I trust From Software a lot more after they took down DS3 to fix an RCE exploit. Sure EAC could turn on them, but I feel like a good publisher would be lawyering up the second that happened, especially if it resulted in their game damaging their customer’s hardware.

Edit: not suggesting anyone should install rootkit DRM games, just sharing how I justify living with the ones I already have.

Survival? I’m just waiting to die. I can’t afford to live and the world just keeps getting worse. Oh, and the clusterfuck of conditions I’d be passing on? Not something worth cursing another human with.

Just saw the article about early access premium players having the game auto-complete on first login. DRM should be the last thing on their minds.

EndeavourOS is a pretty decent setup, it has been working well for me so far, and I prefer Arch-based distros because of how quickly Linux has been moving.

Manjaro have let their SSL cert problem happen twice since I’ve been in the loop, and they were unintentionally DDOSing the AUR for a while.

I had to bail from Fedora when they pulled the video codecs from RPM. It may be fixed, but the threat of pulling a tool from the repository still lingers in my mind.

Glitchington ,
@Glitchington@lemmy.world avatar

Ah, they were being pulled from RPM fusion at one point if I recall. It didn’t go through, but the fact that it was even being discussed told me all I needed to know.

Glitchington ,
@Glitchington@lemmy.world avatar

SSL cert expiring stopped access to updates. That’s not just bad press, that’s poor form overall, especially for an Arch-based distro. Even worse, this happened while certbot exists, so there’s no excuse. It tells me they are less reliable as a distro, especially to have let it happen twice.

Devs who don’t realize Steam Deck and Proton are here to stay, will lose our collective attention. Especially as Linux is beginning to surpass Windows for gaming performance.
