The neckless model has way more character.

I enjoyed my time with that game for a while. Then it got tedious. It’s a mile wide and an inch deep.

This is the natural cycle of capitalism. Company makes good products, customers are happy, company makes lots of money.

But now company isn’t growing fast enough. It must grow faster forever. Company must shake things up to grow faster.

Now company has a revolving door of idiot c suite with “vision” who all make things worse.

Being immutable means you have fewer options for building out specialized hardware support.

With Distrobox you can install any Linux software you could on any other distro. Immutable isn’t the hurdle people make it out to be. It’s just different than what people have been used to for so long.

Look, I get it, you really want to pay the game. But if it’s a game that might die due to low player count, why bother?

I see two main outcomes: 1) it’s amazing and you have such a great time playing it that you’re extremely sad when it dies, or 2) it’s just a game, you play it for and while and it’s no more fun than any other game you have.

FOMO and hype are extremely effective, but not for your benefit.

Given that DF is free and has been around for nearly 20 years, I doubt that.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism.

That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive for it. It just means we just have to do our best and understand the constraints of the real world.

I played through that game on my Steam Deck a couple years ago. Right stick camera made it feel like a whole new game.

The launcher works great. One really nice touch: the login button on the launcher opens your web browser so you can use a password manager.

My initial impressions in Linux are that it runs great and is fun to play.

I hope it is available as soon as it’s announced, too. If it is announced, even.

Not naming it Furball Space Agency feels like a missed opportunity.

In the future, you just need to make sure the game is running on Proton. You might need to change the Proton version.

Just clicking those drop-down options will be the majority of “troubleshooting” you’ll have to do to get games working.

I’m a huge fan of Aurora, the least popular ublue desktop OS. Bazzite is great, too. But I prefer Aurora.

Hell, even my wife uses it and has no complaints.

Unfortunately, CEOs are really only good for one thing. Saying nothing by spouting a bunch of corporate jargon.

There is a better way. Instead of compiling when you launch the game, you can enable background processing of shaders. This will happen while you’re not gaming. If you don’t do other stuff on that computer while you’re not gaming and it is turned off or asleep instead, it might not help.

People think I’m crazy to not claim free games from Epic. I don’t, and won’t even have an account on that cursed platform.

Instead of Kinoite, I’d suggest either Bluefin or Aurora. They’re made by the same group as Bazzite.

Instead you’ll spend your time littering your own computer with bloatware!
