A remaster? Of a game released in 2020?

Quoting: CatKillerI really enjoyed Dark Nights with Poe and Munro on the Deck.

Any other recommendations? I don't think I have ever played an FMV game, but I am curious.

Quoting: saturnoyoFYI I can't follow any of those links, uBlock blocks them all.

Yeah, this new referral system used by Humble is completely useless if you have any sort of ad blocker installed.

Quoting: HighballI would speculate, the engineering challenges incurred when playing the Steam Deck upside down.

The reverse gravity interferes with the electron flow, so they had to invert the chip design to be compatible with the southern hemisphere.

Wow, this is a big can of worms to open.

If they allow software that changes the behavior of Steam (e.g. plugins) on the store itself, it would surely open up a lot of possibilities, but also ripe for abuse.

I would hate to see Steam become this:

Quoting: robvvIn the original Alien: Isolation there was a small change you could make to one file to ensure that the alien didn't hunt the player.

The alien just wanted to be your friend and give you a hug.

Quoting: MayeulCPretty sure it's CCP for Chinese Communist Party in English

Of course not

I'm sorry, I really don't see what distinction are you trying to make here. I was simply referring to the ruling party in China. You know, the one and only.

Chinese government-sponsored developer (e.g. a company) would be completely capable of bringing proper Chinese language support to Linux. And people would switch to it, if mandated by the government. I am guessing independence from Windows is simply not something considered to be an issue by the CCP. Especially when they can force Microsoft to comply with Chinese regulations, and do all the work for them.

Seems like a lot of people dislike GNOME, but I love it. I like how you don't really "use" GNOME, as it just gets out of your way, while at the same time all the important settings like WiFi, power saving, etc. are right there when you need them.

Whenever I think about the description of the old GNOME window manager Metacity, it always makes me feel warm and cozy inside.

QuoteBoring window manager for the adult in you. Many window managers are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; Metacity is like Cheerios.

Yep, sign me up.

It is true that their UI paradigm is not quite 100% refined yet, but at least it is not another rehash of the same thing since Windows 3.1.
