We should never have fucking needed a switch in the first place, mozilla... if that is your real name.

I absolutely love it, and finished the demo. I never finish demos. Can't wait! Is it out yet?

Quoting: ChrisznixOh man, Next Fest... aint nobody got time for that.
Every evening, when its finally getting quieter, i look at all my games already, cannot decide what to play next and... go for a round of brotato and go to bed. Sigh.

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: JarmerI primarily use three devices, so here's what I use:

- linux desktop: Librewolf / Orion beta

Librewolf is a Firefox version, so still lives or dies by what happens to Mozilla. So I don't see that as much of a difference. And I'm not to familiar with the webkit politics. At the end of the day it is an Apple thing and I see Apple as a much bigger threat than Mozilla due to its size. You can argue webkit is open source, but so is chromium and shows the scars of its google dependency, so that doesn't mean much.

As you mentioned, ideally you'd want something that is truly independent and that can't be influenced by tech giants, but that's not realistic at this time. So for now a Mozilla dependency seems the least problematic, whether it is through Firefox or one of its custom builds.

All of what you've said is exactly right, and I agree with all of it.

But at the end of the day: I'm just doing the best I can ... and to me, avoiding vanilla FF and vanilla Webkit is a good idea. Chrome / chromium anything doesn't even enter the picture. So ... librewolf / orion is the best I can think of in early 2026.

From a performance perspective, I'm not hopeful for this one. The information here is kind of useless because it doesn't specify what upscaling they use and I only care about performance without upscaling.

Quoting: M@GOidAbout their requirement for on site work, they better change it if they want to get good and experienced workers. People are fed up with jobs that involve long, daily commuting but can easily be done from home. After all, AMD does have people on their team that work remotely and they have done pretty well.

The good news is that they let you prompt the AI you work for during the commute! It saves so much time (for the company). It does not count towards the work you have to do in office from 9 in the morning to 9 at night 6 days a week.

Final result seems fine. I assume Mozilla needs the AI hype money to stay in business.
I am not a fan of having AI force fed to me. I did like that they didn’t configure it so that if I want use translations, I had to turn on all AI features.

Quoting: Linas

Quoting: Ehvis...but what then?

Microsoft had a chance to keep the web somewhat independent by keeping the original Edge browser alive, or maybe even partnering up with Mozilla. But instead they made Edge into a reskin of Chrome, and gave Google full control of the web on a silver platter.

MS stalled the development of web standards for years, with Internet Explorer. It's a good thing that they aren't an independent meddler nowadays.

Played a bit for nostalgia, but i don't understand why AF and AA options are missing from the game settings.
anyway if anyone wonders
~/.ut2004/System/UT2004.ini is the place to change those

really good to see old games still kept alive.

- macos laptop: Orion
- ios phone: Orion

I absolutely love what Kagi is doing with Orion, so at least for now I'm very happy with that. In the future Servo / Ladybird might be great alternatives as well, just not there yet as of today.

Quoting: JarmerI'm glad they added this, but for me: too little too late / the train has left the station / the horse is out of the barn / [insert saying here] ...... I'm never going to use FF again. Sorry mozilla :(

You can say that, but what then? I refuse to use a chrome(ium) based browser since those have shown to follow google. Other alternatives have their own issues. Besides, I think the settings have been in FF for a while because I turned all of it off the moment it appeared. I just needed to do it with about:config. So not sure if this change is more than just UI.

moreso for me it just instantly limits the pool of available candidates by like 90% (or more?) ... any person with a family can't just instantly uproot themselves and move to a MUCH MUCH MUCH more expensive location for a job that may or may not work out long term. Doubly so for a company such as Intel who might not even exist in a few years. So therefore, you get to pick from whoever is available locally. SO. STUPID.

I love the look of this, will check it out. I like the animation of the moving castles, very nicely done. Looks fun!

LOL I had the same weird full screen issues - it kept forcing itself into a small window. But whatever, I don't think I'd play this game on my desktop, I think I'd play this game on my deck where that wouldn't be an issue. Seems perfect for the deck.

I played it for a few mins this morning then promptly uninstalled it. Loved it! It was enough for me to know that I'll be getting it day 1 on launch and can wait patiently until then :)

Quoting: CatKillerThat's the opposite of what anyone wants.

Better an untested linux build than no linux build.

I hope they use it as an indication that they need to hire Linux-experienced developers. There've been countless games over the years that have left their Linux versions blowing in the wind because none of them really understand it.

Deep Snow Delivery looks great! Adding that to my demo list.

Yesterday I tried Ardenfall & Replaced. LOVE LOVE LOVE replaced! Will 100% be getting that. The art / visuals / sound is off the charts amazingly good. Ardenfall has some bizarre graphical stretching at the edges that was super distracting (which I hope they fix) but otherwise DEFINITELY has the morrowind vibes.

Everyone needs to check out [Deep Snow Delivery](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3281970/Deep_Snow_Delivery/) as well. Should work perfectly on Linux, as it's doing fine on my Deck (lower the Snow Heightfield Resolution to low, other settings to medium, target 30 FPS), and is just a fun experience from the get go.

I have to link one of my all time favourites on the steam deck here:
[Nova Drift](https://store.steampowered.com/app/858210/Nova_Drift/)! Way over 100 hours for me.

Evil West is an incredibly meh game. The graphics are okay, but the game is needlessly demanding. Characters are childishly onedimensional, the leveldesign is absolutely linear with invisible walls everywhere and the core game loop gets repetetive quite fast. PC controls and co-op are both obviously an afterthought. Startet the game with a friend, as we both liked the idea for the setting, but the game got so stale that we just stopped.

Crap. My deck just broke. 😭
Anyone have any experience in contacting Valve regarding hardware defects?

Quoting: octarine_dreamThe dreamland optimist in me thinks they're projecting more gamers switching off windows and they want to avoid an entire new generation of 'avoid nvidia on linux'; a mantra like that is tough to shift. Yes, I used a semicolon, but I assure you I am human.

That looks like something a bot would say...

Well, I think this puts a end to the speculations about Intel discontinuing their discrete GPU lineup.

About their requirement for on site work, they better change it if they want to get good and experienced workers. People are fed up with jobs that involve long, daily commuting but can easily be done from home. After all, AMD does have people on their team that work remotely and they have done pretty well.

Honestly looks like about 75% of contributions mention Linux support. Maybe more - incredible support from the penguins. On the back of that response I hope they devote some time to the Linux version instead of just shoving out untested builds.

This are the few demos I liked enough to wishlist the games, of the 4-5 I have tried:

• Dungeons of DUSK: Very good. Native Linux compatibility, shows it's a "labor of love", smooth CRPG difficult curve. Very good performance.


• Gambonanza: A turn-based chess roguelike. Very fun, seems too basic at the beginning, the chess-puzzle difficult escalates pretty smoothly. Similar to Balatro with a cool and animated interface, and in the sense you buy very strategic power ups with money earned after each special "mini chess" match.
