Quoting: JarmerI'm amazed Fortnite is still a thing. I don't know anything about that gaming sub-culture (teens mostly right?) but I would have thought its time would have passed by now. But it's multiplayer, and I know absolutely nothing about mutliplayer games whatsoever, so .... shrugs. I'm also amazed occasionally I see some gaming articles about world of warcraft and I have to check the calendar to ensure I know what year it is.

Quoting: Mountain ManBasing an entire business model on the continued success of a single live service game probably wasn't the best idea.

Quoting: eggroleExtremism is created when there is a lack of communication

No it isn't. Different political camps never communicated much and probably never will. Extremism is created when the system as it is fails to meet the needs of large and increasing numbers of people,

For the last 10 or so years people have been saying "hey, maybe all this immigration isn't a good idea." They have made points that one might agree or disagree with, but it was their position. And that entire time the governments and the opposing parties have said to them, resoundingly, "STFU, Nazi, Racist, Bigot!" (as also seen in some post in this very thread).

Quoting: TightRopeHow much did Tim Sweeney cut his own compensation? Responsibility starts at the top.

You don't understand how corporate management works.
If a business is doing well, it's ALWAYS because of the hard-working, visionary CEO.
If a business is not doing well, it's ALWAYS because of external factors outside of the CEO's control.

Quoting: msmafra🤔 I'm very confused with thsoe 3 R595 these few weeks. So those were betas?

Dude (i assume you're a dude, right?), please show me a single government that has enforced "forced acceptance", or where the more conservative to far-right were so completely singled out of the public debate as you're trying to portray. i'll wait.

Quoting: eggroleRape gangs in Europe (again I am not well versed) seem like they are far too common - and the demographics are clear.

Quoting: eggroleIn the USA we are seeing investigation after investigation on fraud that is often done by migrants (though all fraud should be dealt with, this isn't a migrant issue really until you look at the demographics).

Quoting: eggroleNow, you can't honestly tell me that the people you call extremists today weren't for 10 years trying to voice their opinions and now when they've finally reached a point where enough is enough they form a political block and say "well, you didn't want to hear our concerns or compromise, so we will simply vote our leaders in" everyone is acting surprised?

What's the old saying: if you make peaceful revolution impossible, you make violent revolution inevitable? Now, I know many of the people here see themselves as the underdog fighting the man, but remember that sword cuts both ways. There are plenty of people today that see the forced acceptance of your ideas as "the man", particularly when the governments of the world seem to enforce these views...

Quoting: jgacasI have all of them!😁

Quoting: AthanasiusHmmm, not listed on https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/ yet ... maybe tomorrow....

Quoting: dubigrasuGiven my increasingly failing eyes, old GPU, size and distance (80cm/2m) from my 2K monitor, I am satisfied to play everything at 1280x720 (boooooo). It scales perfectly, and with a bit of old FSR1 I'm quite OK with it.

Quoting: subHow do I use D7VK with Steam on Linux?

Basic instructions are here:
https://github.com/WinterSnowfall/d7vk/tree/v1.6?tab=readme-ov-file#how-to-use

To launch winecfg, to set the necessary dll overrides, I think protontricks is the preferred way:
Running "protontricks --gui" should let you elect the game, the prefix and then give you the option to run winecfg.

Quoting: ArehandoroIncreased housing prices don't happen because of immigration. It happens because of the de-regularisation of the housing market (Which it should never be a fucking market)

Quoting: ArehandoroNo one is "importing" anyone. Please stop referring to people like if they were goods.

Quoting: SalvatosWait, they support Icewind Dale 2 even though Beamdog said they couldn't make an Enhanced Edition for it? Huh!

From what I heard, the source code / assets of IWD2 were lost, and the EEs Beamdog did were all based on the original stuff.
GemRB on the other hand is a rewrite from scratch, so they never had the original code for any of the games to begin with.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyI watched the trailer. Sure looked like the main character was killing a bunch of actual cartoony Nazis. But if you see your "side" in that . . . Ehhh, tough. Meanwhile, games where the enemies are Communists are so common it's not even really remarked on.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyFar as I can tell, this site's position is an insistence on common decency. It just so happens that a lot of things the modern far right like to say violate that. That's on them. But I don't see what you have to complain about here except that commenters disagree with you. That isn't a site policy. People rubbishing nonsense is not a free speech violation, it's the other people also getting to speak.
