I’m getting the vibe that it’s been developed with full knowledge that it’s going to be a commercial flop, and they’re just hoping to at least not lose money. Feels like the developer had a contract to make a live service game w/ the IP so they’re just chugging it out. Obviously not sure though.
Nobody is going to buy this I don’t get why they’re pushing it
Half the population is literally CHILDREN.
You might also want to consider why, in the first place, any of them would support Hamas? Israel started this, it’s always been an attempted genocide.
The Ace Attorney Chronicles. It’s two ace attorney games bundled, and I’m playing it on switch. You play as a defense attorney and try to solve crimes and defend your client, and the cases are top notch.
If I’m being totally honest, my primary use-case is gaming. I only have linux installed on my device, and if a game doesn’t work, I simply play other things and hope it will eventually work.
Sometimes, with some effort, you can get windows programs to work using wine. For example, I was able to run Mod Organizer 2 to mod skyrim without issues. If that fails and your software won’t work in wine, you could either find alternative native linux software or just dual-boot. I used to do that to play VR games in windows 10 since I’ve had issues running them in linux. Another option is to run a windows Virtual Machine whenever you need whatever software you can’t get working, but there’s pretty bad performance limitations unless you can get hardware passthrough working.
The game has it’s issues, don’t get me wrong. You need to build the teleporter for the main quest, which does require some materials, but so long as you’re picking stuff up as you’re looting, you’ll often just have what you need.
I don’t know that there’s a mod, but the building really can be mostly ignored outside of a small handful of quests. It’s mostly optional.
I’m really not convinced that even if linux, at some point, does become a better platform for gaming than windows, that windows users will swap over. Mainstream gamers probably have never installed an OS before, it’s intimidating for people.
People just don’t have the spending money anymore for phones. Especially given how expensive the flagships are.
I know it’s maybe not a great replacement for everyone, but this crap is why I stopped using YouTube and just use Peertube now.
Looks awesome! Glad to see quake getting more love.
It’s the only effective ready to get a response. Stonewall was a riot.
The only thing those in power will listen to is the destruction of property, because what they care about isn’t the life of most of us. It’s money. They care about money.
Sure. But eventually is better than now. Because as long as it isn’t in a landfill, and it’s not broken, it can still be experienced. Honestly, even when I’m not using my Nintendo 64 games, I like just looking at them.
If collecting brings you joy, do it. It keeps retro hardware out of the landfills.
I don’t know much about 1Password, but I’ve been using BitWarden for years.
The autofill feature is nice, but sometimes you’ll have to unlock the vault for it to continue to work, which can be a pain at times. It’s pretty flexible, you can save personal information and cards on top of logins, and it has a password generator built in that I pretty much always use now for making my passwords. It’s not fancy, but it’s really functional, and works on all my devices without issues.
I mean… that’s simply incorrect. If you read my original post, I talked about that, exactly. Twice in the last month I’ve had running updates via the “updates available” notification in Kubuntu break the system, and require chrooting into the system via a live usb to fix it. That’s without any changes or messing around with the system, on a very recent install.
When I used normal Ubuntu, there were rampant gnome shell crashes. Hardware compatibility is far from perfect, as well - case in point I’ve done clean installs of Linux Mint on computers for others in the past, only to find out that there simply aren’t working wifi drivers for the device.
Linux CAN be less maintenance, but it’s ultimately more work to actually make the jump and completely relearn how to use a computer. I’m fully aware of the capabilities on people who aren’t enthusiasts, I do tech support for my whole family all the time. My stepfather’s solution to the wifi being slow was to make more networks on the same router, it was hosting like 12 wifi networks at once. However, windows is already familiar to them. They could technically learn to use linux, but they have zero interest because if windows has an issue they’ll just call me and I’ll fix it (and that’s usually not needed because it rarely breaks on them).
I’d say it can be, if they’re running something incredibly stable that you can guarantee won’t break on them… Which involves an amount of research and effort that most people simply won’t put in as long as what they are familiar with continues to work. Windows might have it’s fair share of issues, but at least a lot of people are already familiar with it, same w/ Mac os.
Linux really isn’t ideal for anyone who isn’t already a tech enthusiast on some level. I recently did a fresh install of Kubuntu and after about a week, it prompted me that there were updates, so I clicked the notification and ran the updates, after which my BIOS could no longer detect the UEFI partition. I had to use a live usb to chroot into the system and repair it, as well as update grub, in order to fix it.
It’s fixable, but this is not something anyone who doesn’t already know what they’re doing can fix. I’ve had auto updates in the past put me on boot-loops thanks to nvidia drivers, etc.
This kind of thing needs to almost never happen for linux to be friendly for those who just want their computer to work without any technical understanding. This, honestly though, can’t happen because of the nature of distros, you can’t ever make guarantees that everything will work because every distro has slightly different packages.
Wine is getting better, but compatibility is still an issue, especially for people who rely really heavily on microsoft office or adobe products.
I do not believe, at all, that linux needs to grow. We don’t need to appeal to every casual pc user, because for most of these people what they are using already works just fine for them - and if they don’t already have the drive to learn about and try linux on their own, there’s no reason to shove it in their faces.
