Similar story here. I had a laptop running nVidia/Intel dual graphics for a few years and it was so fucking finicky. Primusrun this, optirun that. Ugh. Once upon a time, whenever I heard the word Optimus, I thought of transforming trucks with laser guns. Hearing that same word now puts me in a fetal position.
To any GeForce owners that are considering going Linux full time: do a test run first and see how it works out, because nVidia support on Linux is spotty at best.
Nah thanks, I prefer to commit crimes at home.
Yes, I may have jumped the gun, I apologize. What this initiative is trying to do is important to me and between Pirate Software lying his face off and one of the most prolific gaming publications not getting their facts straight… The amount of misinformation being spread around this topic just hurts my soul.
That is false, PC Gamer screwed up. Here are both pages of the initiative itself:

https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007
Deadlines are in the upper right. And as you can see, it does NOT say July 3rd.
They’re not getting half a million signatures in less than a week a man.
31st July is not a less than a week from now, dude…
Fully agree. Culpability is dead.
I don’t know about developing, but he’s certainly involved in a live service-ish game called Rivals of Aether 2 as “Director of Strategy”, whatever the hell that is. His name is listed in the game’s credits (video). He comes up at around 01:57 mark. Really bums me out too, because I like that game :(
Um, no. Ross Scott, the organizer of this whole thing, said that it will most likely fail. Meaning that there’s still a chance of success, not that he’s completely given up. The deadline for the European Citizens Initiative is 31st July, more than a month from now.
Also, fuck Pirate Software.
I see most of my faves have already been covered by others, so I’m going to add the Metroid Prime games. Unlike the mainline Metroid games, which are awesome in their own right, the Metroid Prime games are played from a first person perspective.
You still get to explore, you still get power-ups, but because you can scan almost anything with Samus’ visor, there’s some actual worldbuilding, which the mainline Metroid games didn’t really start doing until Metroid Fusion (which was alright, but Metroid Dread did a better job at worldbuilding, I feel). As for the platform, I played the GameCube versions on the Wii.
Good picks, but I don’t think Dark Souls qualifies as a metroidvania. Metroidvanias gate off parts of the map based on what abilities the player has/doesn’t have, whereas Dark Souls blocks off parts of the map simply because you’re missing a key. Also, Dark Souls doesn’t really have ability power-ups with the exception of acquiring the Lordvessel.
I have the Flydigi Vader 4 Pro with the USB dongle. And yes, it’s plug and play.
Just finished Yakuza 0 and am psyched to start Yakuza Kiwami (which is a remake of the first Yakuza game). The action is soo good. Beating the shit out of enemies is already satisfying enough, but where it gets really good is when you build up something called a Heat meter as you’re fighting. Once it builds up, you get access to Heat Actions and they are nuts.
I mean just look at this madness (spoilers for move unlocks)!
It’s short for Terms of Service.
Are you talking about archinstall or have they actually automated the default installation method?
Do yourself a favour and install it on a virtual machine first. Screwing up an install on Arch is frighteningly easy. The Arch Wiki is your friend, use it. Also, read the installation instructions before you begin the installation, not during. If this sounds like too much of a headache (understandably so), then give EndeavourOS a whirl.
What’s the third logo? I recognize the rest, but not the rotated blue G or whatever it is.
Yeah, it’s normal. There are so many flavours of Linux out there, why wouldn’t you want to try some of them?
The founder’s shady history with OpenFeint, their entire privacy policy and shit like this, take your pick. Wikipedia also has an entire section dedicated to Discord’s controversies. No matter how you look at it, Discord has a great many shortcomings.
Rookie mistake. The answer to that isn’t to remove the accessory, but to add EVEN MORE accessories so it balances itself out.
