Looks great, and reminds me a bit of Lumo, which I have yet to finish. I haven't tried the demo yet, but hopefully soon.

Quoting: slaapliedjeIt has been pointed out that the person driving the car in the image with the kid in the back seat at https://www.steamdeck.com/en/hardware is driving it wrong. That isn't how you drive a Tesla!

How so? I've only been driving a Tesla for a couple of weeks, but I can't tell what's wrong with the image.

EDIT: Assuming it's this image we're talking about: https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamdeck/images/factorio-cover.jpg

That looks perfectly normal to me.

Ha, I don't know a co-worker who owns a Tesla, demanded I post it somewhere. He rattled off something about it does driving correction and you basically only have to have your hands sort of touching the wheel or something. I was too busy reading specs on the steam deck or something else. Did think it was funny.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's their so-called FSD features, which is an optional (expensive) extra that I haven't tried. I think that's rubbish too. Nothing wrong with driving a Tesla as a normal car.

My guess would be it's a joke about how you're "supposed" to be using self-driving and going hands-free, but I'm just spit-balling.

That sounds plausible. I haven't tried a Tesla with FSD features myself, but from what I've heard, current versions of it will complain if you try to take your hands off the steering wheel. Maybe that depends on local traffic law.

QuoteCurrently it's limited to United States, Canada, European Union, and the United Kingdom with more regions becoming available in 2022.

Nothing for Norway then (or Switzerland, or Iceland or Luxemburg)? Or is this just a ploy to make us join the EU?

Last time I checked Luxembourg was still part of the European Union. Did they leave in silence?

They are? Then you've just corrected a misunderstanding I've had since early school xD I though they were outside, like us. I could have sworn they've always been mentioned in the same breath as the non-EU-member-trade-agreements we have and such things. But that may have been for other reasons then. TIL something basic x)

You're probably thinking of Liechtenstein, which is one of the EEA countries, in addition to Norway and Iceland. I get those mixed up all the time too, in spite of having worked on a case processing project to facilitate exchange of social security agreements between EU and EEA member states (plus bilateral agreements) for a couple of years.

Actually, the EEA is an agreement between the EU and those three countries, according to Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Economic_Area

See, this stuff is confusing!

I'm extremely psych(onauts)ed for the release. (Sorry.)

Looks interesting, and it reminds me of AdventureOS, which was covered in The Funding Crowd #15, but unfortunately never was released for Linux.

I enjoy a good beer. It doesn't necessarily have to be fancy, but better than the cheap Ringnes pilsner, which was pretty much all you could find in Norwegian bars when I was young. So I probably don't agree with the premise of the game, but it looks fun, and I'm definitely going to give it a try. It's been on my radar since it was released, because my wife went to folk high school with one of the developers (Arik), and she told me about it.

Looks like an instant buy for me, once it's available for Linux.

I enjoyed Rochard a lot when I played it several years ago. Sad to hear the developer is bankrupt, and that the game is no longer for sale.
