That's about the computer I used to run Gentoo on ... that were a lot of long compiling hours.

Hmh, I could not find why they forked it from wine. As a dev branch to be faster paced than wine or is it for technical reasons?
I know wine is quite conservative, but was that the reason for the fork?

Well, at least funding the rest of the game should not be an issue by now.
They still have a lot of plans, I managed to play it a bit by now, but I'll probably wait for the finished product for a play through.

Currently no. They are working on it though.

Quoting: oldominionQuoting: jensNice, with also Nvidia preparing for xWayland I guess I'm only missing Chrome/Chromium/Electron in Wayland land.
Does Chromium or vscode not work on Wayland?
Currently no. They are working on it though.

I loved most the release of the Steam client on Feb 05.
That bug annoyed me a lot.

Started playing, I was shocked how bad the character creator looked compared to the in game graphics which I find more appealing.
It's a fun game, but I did not have the time to play as much as I'd like, but I think for me it will be a game to play a few hours here and there.

Terraria for Stadia cancelled, due to Google locking the developer out

One of the reasons I have my own nextcloud at a german provider which gets backed up every day to a storage service of my choice, my own domains and with that mail adresses.
I do not even have my contacts at google.
Costs me about 4 euros a month, which is not a lot.
I do use google... for everything I do not care if it's gone. Basically Gmail is my mailing list and mail for online accounts I do not care about overmuch, where I'd just create another account if it's gone.

Google shutting their internal game dev studios, focusing directly on Stadia tech

I'm in the same boat here with AC:Valhalla and Cyberpunk. I do not even need my own PC, I can use my work laptop in the evening to play.
I don't regret buying it, but I see a risk of Google shutting down the whole thing at some point (or at least abandon it).

Quoting: NuSueyFeel free to hate on me but I still love my purchase on Stadia.
Bought Cyberpunk 2077 on stadia, that cost 10e/$ less than on Steam/GOG on launch day (cause of the new user discount).
If i wanted to play Cyberpunk2077 on my hardware I would have to spend a few hundreds just to make it be playable (and streamable).
In my eyes that was definitely worth it. Played probably 70hours of it, love it & love the experience.
It just seems they are refocusing on just supporting other developers than to spend much more money just on their own production of games.
I am pretty sure we will see a ton of games coming to Stadia this year and even if it's still the underdog, I totally root for the underdogs.

I think that's a smart move, providing the streaming platform and getting a cut of the game price.
They'll just need enough devs/publishers willing to port to Stadia, for that they need a user base which makes it worth porting, and I'm not very confident they do have the userbase yet, or will have in the next few years.
I hope it survives though, being able to play on the TV or PC as I choose is really nice.

Valve abusing the market power of Steam on game pricing according to a lawsuit

We can argue here all we want, unless we know what exactly is in the agreement(s), we can't say either wise. Would be nice if such a document ever leaked so we finally know what practices Valve is up to, but I doubt that will happen any time soon.
The outcome of this will be interesting - the actual court judgement.
