Thanks, I didn’t know that. I thought it was an open standard.

I agree that game sizes are pretty ridiculous these days. This and Baldurs Gate 3 will take up the entirety of my only space ssd. Sadly prices where I live are still decently high.

I’m sure things could be done to optimize the size. With the BTRFS filesystem, you can have things autocompress in a transparent way. So, I installed like 600gb of games, but it only took up 450gb of space because of filesystem compression. Additionally, files load like they are just a normal file.

I wonder how much space would be saved by installing this game to that filesystem.

One of the reasons tech companies were able to operate for a long time at a loss was due to interest rates being really low.

I think the increased interest rates are the reason for twitter, reddit, and other companies trying to monetize harder.

I could be wrong, I am not an economist. This is just the kind of stuff, I have read in other subs.

Not sure if I got subnautica. There was a crpg series they gave away. I forget the name, but i was about the buy it on steam and recognized the artwork. I checked on Epic and sure enough I had the triology.

I’m not sure why I didn’t think about that. It’s hard enough to get to the mouse just to quickly try to learn the buttons and then die.

Such a wonderful game!

I’m an apple user, but I really think the issue is being created by apple. They talked about doing iMessage on android and then someone else was like no we can’t we want people to be locked into their iPhone.

I just don’t want to be tied to an apple device to Message people who only have iMessage. I live outside of the US but all my family, friends, and contacts are there.

I feel locked into iOS as international texting and calls would be so expensive.

Same but replace WhatsApp with messenger and iMessage.

The fediverse makes the internet feel more alive than ever.

It feels less mindless scrolling and more interaction.

Im ready to give mods a try. Im on Linux, so I’m not sure how difficult it will be. But I’m pretty confident I can get it working. In fact, I might have tried in the past.

It’s still better than clicking into the website.

I would love a bit that just copies the text out of the website so I can read it here.

No need to load an entire website just for some text.

There have been a few instances where I was excited for the free games that came out.

One game they have given out a few times is called “Enter the Gungeon”

This is one of the best roguelite games I’ve ever played. I have hundreds of hours in this game.

Please play it for a while if you have not.

Thanks. I will take a look at it 🙏

I’ve only encountered problems with Peacock, but it’s not officially offered where I live, so I have been OK with Netflix and Disney Plus.

I have never tried VR. I have issues with balance as it is and I am pretty sure VR would trigger balance problems, but thanks for pointing it out. For those who are interested.

Can I get a tldr? I’m really out of the loop on this.

I read Madison’s post, but I’m not sure what’s going on with Linus other than that.

That’s a great point. I wonder if people would buy it and use it without really noticing or if they would be upset because it’s not windows or whatever.

Windows has been a pretty garbage os for years. Linux is so much better in many ways. The only thing windows has is a few applications that have yet to release a Linux version.

If we could get office, Adobe, and autocad on Linux, we could see droves of people switch.

Gaming is basically all set on Linux at this point. Just a few games that have not setup to work due to anti-cheat, but screw it. I don’t need them.

The average android user doesn’t have the ability to use lineageos. None of the android phones in my home even have support. So its not really a fair to talk about lineage when comparing android to iOS.

I could be wrong, but doesn’t lineageos have problems accessing banking apps since its missing some kind of DRM?

Maybe this I’d a solved issue at this point.

Haha no, it was just the wrong waste size.
