Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.
Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.
Fortnite is riddled with overreaching anti-cheat. No shit it wont run on linux.
GOG doesn’t sell you anything more than a license, either. The difference is that you can download and keep the game forever.
Except you can actually do that with a lot of games on steam, too. These games don’t need steam, which means you could completely uninstall steam, and the game .exe would still work.
I’ll be waiting for a crack that circumvents this. If I get the game someday.
Eh. I genuinely can’t tell whether this trailer is promising. Some of the animation is cool.
But even if it turns out good, since its animated, and not big mouth, Netflix will cancel it right as it begins to gain traction.
That sounds like exactly what I was getting
Like complete freezes followed by a reboot? Or straight to complete reboot?
I had that on my first unit, RMAd it and hasn’t happened again on the new one. I assumed it was some kind of faulty hardware component. Like the RAM or GPU.
I know.
It’s a Tiagra 4700 (works really fucking well, actually) which is 10-speed, but it for some ass-backwards reason uses 11-speed cable pull (but with the actuation for a 10-speed cassette), which isn’t disclosed anywhere.
So it’ll work as-is with any 11-speed shifter, as long as you make sure the mech stops are set so you can’t shift off the cassette.
No, not just you.
Putting together a drivetrain is a fucking pain in the ass because even when shit is interoperable, there is no documentation confirming that.
Just as an example, I have a bike with shifters that attach to the brake levers. Neat, minimalist.
Except the brakes and brake levers are kinda shit, so I’d like to replace them. Except then I’d need a new shifter. Ok fine.
But wait, the derailleur uses an unusual cable-pull-interval that shimano used on literally just this one derailleur-shifter combo, so now I need a new derailleur that’ll work with the new shifter.
It’s fucking infuriating.
It’s probably not worth the effort. It’s one of the more complex mods, and the screen with additional resolution comes with a bunch of drawbacks, and the anti-glare coating isn’t that big a deal.
You cannot put an OLED screen in an LCD model.
They have different internals. The screen upgrades that exist for the LCD are to swap in the anti-glare coated version, or a higher resolution.
Either way, making all the software developers who insist on messing with the kernel on windows, stop, will be a good thing.
The discussion threads during the last season were a huge success, I also posted the lore-heavy bonus pages from the manga to enhance the watching experience for subscribers.
Posting mostly fanart in-between seasons, but come join us!
No. EAC and Battleye developed ways to explicitly support proton, which has to be explicitly enabled by the developer for the game to run.
Proton didn’t change, the popular AC options did. They’ve had proton support pretty much since the steamdeck launched, and it works great as long as the developer of a game bothers checking the checkbox for it.
EAC works on linux just fine, and the fact that Apex runs, means Respawn deliberately allows it.
Worth noting, it is a publisher, not a developer. They fund and publish games from a litany of studios and probably own a lot of the IPs, and this leaves their partner studios in a precarious position, but as of yet, no studio has shuttered because of this.
I watch Berm Peak (formerly seths bike hacks) and he recently did a video on a large expensive cargo bike intended for commuting with two kids.
He commented on the high price and safety features, and the large amount of time and resources spent on design to make it safe for anyone you might run into (as it’s large, unwieldy, and heavy as hell compared to normal bikes) and he in passing comments “but no-one wants to spend on keeping anyone else safe” and my jaw just dropped.
Everyone. Everyone wants to spend on that. Everyone who isn’t a goddamn psychopath who ignores the fact that you or someone you care about is just as likely to be on either end of such an accident.
Is that really just the default way to think in the states? I’ll spend on my survival, but no-one elses?
Improve the situation in the many, many, many, many proven ways that many, many, many, many countries and cities already do?
Satisfactory 1.0 just dropped.
Coffe Stain literally does straight up ASMR trailers sometimes.
It’s a crypto game. They’re basically all dead by now, and firing drd wasn’t going to save this one.
Like the other guy said, there’s no immediate need to delete the account. And someone else wont be able to pick the address up after you, if you do.
I’ll probably leave google eventually, as well, but I don’t intend to delete my account. The process of using google services less and less has been ongoing for years for me, and I will just use them less and less, until I no longer do at all.
Where email is concerned, I’ll just have whatever my new email is pull in my mail from gmail for a while, and as I receive email concerning various accounts to my gmail, that’s when I’ll go in and change them over to use my new address so the old inbox gets less and less mail.
Then, eventually, when I haven’t touched it for years, I might take the final step of actually deleting it. But probably not.
Everything runs on an API, including steam.
That’s not how anything works. Even literal spyware would have to make use of some APIs. The acronym literally just refers to a interactive protocol between software applications.
AFAIK, legendary, the python application which Heroic uses to interact with Epic services was created by reverse-engineering the Epic store API used by their launcher, not by implementing some public spec they freely provide. It’s essentially a workaround they haven’t bothered shutting down. For now Epic hasn’t blocked it, but that’s not the same as an endorsement.
Legendary may not have implemented the parts of the Epic launcher that collects user data, but that doesn’t mean Epic doesn’t do that.
I mention Linux, because that is the primary use-case for Heroic. I entirely forgot it works on Windows.
I’m under no illusions about how Steam works, but to claim EPIC of all companies is any better, is beyond rich.
GOG I can agree with, but even they have some games that don’t work quite right without galaxy. That may improve, as those APIs are being reverse-engineered, as well.
So does GOG and Epic. The only difference is that there’s a third-party downloader for their libraries.
All three storefronts sell at least some games with executables that function entirely on their own, no launcher necessary once the game files are acquired.
All three also sell some games that can be shut down by their respective developers or publishers, or rely on other services that may not stick around.
