I don’t do difficult games cause of physical issues. I tried Elden Ring and was very impressed, but ultimately it was unplayable for me even trying to go easy.
What do you recommend cheat wise? I’m running on Linux and I really don’t care about online.
“Battle of the Bulge” ironically sounds like a great name for a battle around Trans rights.
If we’re lucky, Steamdeck verified will also mean it’ll run fine on linux.
The point of the Deck versus anything else was that it was common x86 architecture and it runs skinned linux, thus letting us have access to virtually all our library.
Moving to ARM based silicon would massively change things in that regard. We don’t want yet another platform to have to worry about ports for. The Steam Deck is a PC and that’s it’s goal
I don’t want a Steam Deck 2. I want Steam Deck to live up to the upgradability and customizability that Valve had originally empasized for it.
It would be amazing to be able to just swap the main board for a GPU update. on the OG deck, it’s the single biggest bottleneck I run into. (for docked gaming on a big screen). Plus a better GPU would allow it to run cooler when only doing 720p and quieter on the fan.
but, Id on’t want to buy another Steam Deck :p
Simple Answer: Yes.
Everytime we launch something into space the mass of Earth itself decreases by that amount. There is also energy trade off with the mass stealing a bit of earth’s momentum/energy for it to continue as well.
Overall, we’re talking about absolutely micro, if not smaller changes in mass and energy and it ultimately has zero affect on anything.
Zero. The answer to this question is Zero. There is no amount of Ketchup that should be added to Kraft Dinner.
nice attempted rage bate
There’s a massive difference between sharing views, IE: “I don’t like billionaires”, and Making threatening remarks, or calling to violence (not ok).
trying to frame me pointing out that calls to violence are NOT a good look for Lemmy, is not me calling out censorship. That’s you trying to rage bate the conversation into some argument about your rights (which ends where my nose begins)
Short Answer - Money.
Long Answer:
Money and Greed :p
But in reality, it’s usually just money. Ultimately if a company has decided that it’s sole purpose for existing is maximization of wealth for it’s owners, it will inevitably tend to go to the traditional business routes and hire executives who are educated in doing exactly that.
Technology companies in particular are prime for that because everyone hopes to eventually either become the next Apple/Microsoft, or be bought out by them. It’s fast, short term and big money.
Only time in my career I was laid off was because of this. Brother owners had been running their business for 40 years very well and very employee friendly. We got lots of bonuses and pay outs based on revenues and was an awesome place to work.
one of the 3 died and so the other 2 decided it was time to retire, and they did exactly this. Went out and hired a CEO who came from a reputable business school, who has done nothing but “be an executive” since graduating, and was purely a sociopath.
within 3 years the company was a horrendous place to work for. our bonuses nearly all disapeared, or started getting pegged to arbitrary company performance standards and other bullshit. by the end of 3 years 30% of us were then let go.
All because this shmuck’s primary objective was “maximize the value of the company above all else” and for him, that meant going after the employees. Since we released ZERO product in those 3 years since he took over.
A lot of the same opinion based rage baiting articles. same as we’ve seen spammed on Reddit communities.
I’m fairly new. Finding it hard to get truly into the experience given some of the more extreme takes that Lemmy seems to allow (or at least some federated servers)
Seems like Lemmee is sadly becoming a fairly isolated echo chamber for certain opinions only.
edit: An example of “Extreme takes”. Not linking the post. it’s been upvoted 17 times, and online for 18 hours unmoderated: in the post, the user encourages execution. Murder and destruction of property:
so, as an actual radical:
yeah pretty spot on with healthcare. this is basic ‘having a society’ shit.
I don’t want a job that pays so much as an actual society I can contribute to and nurture and be a fucking part of that will take care of me some noticeable fraction of how I take care of it. I’d rather not have money involved, if its all the same to you.
I do actually want a free place to live. I’ll help build it or whatever, but I’m fucking done compromising with landlord parasites; watched too many of their victims die.
I do not want corporations to be unprofitable; I want them dismantled and their boards executed. worker co-ops are cool. individual enterprise is cool. no more exploitation, no more not having a voice.
I think the entire concept we have of ‘democracy’ is absolutely cucked. I could write some essays on what real democracy looks like, but the short version is: fuck your bourgoise elections.
kill the billionaires; tjwyre literal monsters who drink children’s blood steal and transfuse the blood of the young to grasp vainly at eternal youth while burning our futures. no problem with your party yacht if its green and you built it with your friends, but I think we need a reset on ‘wealth’.
Reading shit like that a LOT on this site is a massive turn off to the average user, and why I have a hard time truly diving in and giving a shit about it.
Edited once more: Bolded the problem points I have with above. My issue is not the message itself, but the words and what this user encourages. Don’t gaslight that the language used in that post was beyond reasonable and encourages violence
ME:2 In my opinion is one of the greatest games ever published.
And that doesn’t even include the furthest communities or settlements. just fastest route to the Manitoba border.
There are a lot of communities in Northern Ontario that there are no direct roads to.
Trying to plot a bunch of routes out right now to get an idea and half the routes direct me to drive through the US to save time.
Windsor to Kenora is the longest I’ve plotted so far at 23 hours
Took the train from Toronto to NYC in 01. No thanks. Never again. Will drive if I can.
You know what they say, you drive 2 hour from Toronto and you’re still in Toronto.

First colony in space.
we’ve all got a finite time and my dream is that mankind figures out how to spread throughout the stars.
a first colony is that step
The problem is that there are trolls here and rage baiters.
Having an argument with them is their goal as it opens up discussion for them to contribute nothing and spread more division.
They aren’t trying to have a discussion but use the comment chain to spread shit for others.
The user here never called for opinions to be censored. He called for action against trolls and bots who intentionally try pushing false narratives and division
The fact you immediately jumped to argue about censorship rally evidence your own point for being here and that’s to be a shithead too
