No one talks about land usage for solar either. Which is a real shame, because with some relatively minor redesigns solar plants can be integrated into the ecosystem without causing massive damage, instead of what usually happens which is just clear-cutting a huge field and destroying any plant and animal life there.

That’s absurd. You don’t need to understand the inner workings of the kernel to know what a root account is. If you’re regularly encouraging people to install a new OS when you aren’t even confident in their ability to understand what a root account is, you’re not doing them any favors.

He’s very clearly trolling, the vast majority of PC games are playable on Deck, including the vast majority of the most well-reviewed games ever.

I legit cannot remember the last time I got a virus pirating a game. Probably in the Limewire days, ~20+ years ago.

I love taking my whole gaming pc setup with me to go visit my parents or take a flight, or just lugging it out to the porch for a nice evening of outdoor gaming.

If you’re installing an OS you should absolutely understand what the root account is. That’s like buying a car without understanding the concept of keys.

Not if your bartender is properly trained and not a lazy piece of shit.

I will say that while I love it, as someone with both it and a very capable desktop, I’m in the opposite position. I used it a bunch in the first couple months, but that was because it was a cool new gadget that I wanted to fiddle with. Once the novelty wore off, I do 99% of my gaming at home – the only time I’m using the steam deck at home is if I predict a long poop or I’m sick and don’t want to sit at my desk.

However, where it absolutely shines is travel. It’s small enough to throw in a carry on or even personal bag, and it’s amazing for a flight, or just any trip where you know you’ll have some downtime. The charge is long enough that you can go a few hours without power, especially if you anticipate it and use some of the power saving features.

It’s also fantastic if a second gaming computer would be good for your situation – maybe you’ve got kids or roommates that share your computer, or you wish you could game in your yard etc.

Basically, it’s not a slam dunk for everyone, but if you regularly have any of the use cases listed above, it’s absolutely worth the money – assuming you have the library for it already. I have tons of games that are excellent for the deck, but not everyone will, and while you can play competitive shooters and complex mouse-driven RPGs with it, it’s really not the ideal experience.

I mean, I definitely think it’s not ideal and there’s room for improvement and social pressure for Mozilla to change its priorities, but I also don’t think it’s any reason to abandon the project. The reality is that a modern web browser is too massive of a project for a non-commercial entity to reasonably develop and keep updated, and Mozilla is the only such entity that’s even remotely got its heart in the right place.

Still the best browser to support, still the best hope of defending open web standards from Google. Call me when they implement the ads in an onerous way.

Sacrifice

Hugging, definitely. No playful wrestling since high school, and what there was there was definitely more motivated by competition and testosterone than affection.

As for snuggling, I wouldn’t want to snuggle with anyone that I didn’t have at least some sexual attraction to, unless I was in serious emotional distress and just needed it for the reversion to childhood. So I don’t snuggle with guys. I don’t know of many straight women who snuggle with their platonic friends either, beyond like sharing a blanket for a movie.

For me Doom 2016 was a hugely more enjoyable experience than Eternal. 2016 is arguably one of the greatest linear single player shooters ever made. Eternal felt like a chore once you had all the tools unlocked and I lost interest shortly after. I could have lowered the difficulty so weapon selection didn’t matter, but that was clearly not the design intent.

Ultrakill does the “swap between weapons quickly for interesting combos” much better IMO – it’s not necessary but it’s a value add and it’s super fun to pull off.

Please copy dota instead of league… Dota actually has a coherent design philosophy and creative devs who know how to balance a game, league is just designed around what monetizes the community most effectively.

It’s Linux. You can remove the restriction yourself.

It’s not that hard to either give your user account perma-sudo or to remove the timeout so you only have to enter the password once per login. Slightly more involved would be manually changing which actions require root authentication.

This is off the top of the dome and given more time I’d probably change this significantly, but here’s 10 of my favorites from a multitude of genres:

• Rain World
• Outer Wilds
• Stephen’s Sausage Roll

(Those are pretty firmly my top 3, all totally mindblowing experiences that surprised and awed me multiple times)

• Spelunky 2
• Getting Over It
• Peaks Of Yore
• Satisfactory
• Dark Souls PTDE
• Hunt: Showdown
• Morrowind

Honorable mentions for Guilty Gear and Tekken as series, and I have a special place in my heart for the 2000 title Sacrifice, which is my eternal top pick for a remaster/remake.

Works great for me on Windows 10 with the latest version of FF… Seems to be some problem with your particular configuration.

I do use ublock origin and the full suite of built in FF privacy enhancements, and I generally have my user agent spoofed as Chrome, but I’d be surprised if the latter made a difference.

GitHub (since the Microsoft acquisition) is good to users because that’s their MO, it’s called Embrace, Extend, Extinguish, and the whole point is to centralize users and projects and make them dependent on the Microsoft ecosystem.

Of course now there’s also the whole issue of Copilot, which means any code you put on GitHub could very well show up piecemeal in someone’s AI-generated code. If it wasn’t for that novel avenue of monetization, you can bet your ass GitHub would have already made the free user experience a lot shittier.

Sorry, if you remove my ability to interact with posts through the all feed, I will stop using this site. With how little content exists on this platform, there’s little point in curating a feed. You either visit a specific community for specific information, or you browse all. It would just be an annoyance anyway, akin to the awful reddit “no-participation link”. These measures do absolutely nothing to stop bad faith actors and only serve to annoy normal users and push them away from the site.
