Ah yes, the famously communist Russian Federation. The RF is nakedly an imperial fascist regime that doesn’t even have communist window dressing, it boggles the mind that self-proclaimed communists and anti-imperialists support them.
was gonna say, no such guide can be considered complete without fmhy; i wouldn’t send them to repackers, since every pirate desires different types of treasure (even for games it depends on the system, someone might look for the games he played on the psx in his youth)
Thats actually pretty helpful, thanks!
well lets see if the EU goes along with that change or if they even dare to roll it out here - twitter is already in hot water regarding the lack of moderation and rampant disinformation, adopting that trash model will not help at all.
To underline this statement: Microsoft Bing is trying to spoof Google UI when people search Google.com.
Most tech literates do not understand the workflows of ppl who have no clue. Having done a shitton of 1st Level Tech Support for an ISP in my youth has given me the mostly useless ability to know how the clueless use their computer.
I wish i could forget most of that bullshit tho, it brought me far too young to the conclusion that humanity is a long way from becoming immune to snake oil vendors, scam artists and con men because most people don’t have a fucking clue what they are doing.
I agree with everything except the following bit of wrong info: protonvpn does allow port forwarding on their paid plans. source: i am using it, and https://protonvpn.com/support/port-forwarding

if the small text isn’t an UI thing where you have to be able to read it while doing something else in-game (like reading lore or item stats), the steam deck has a button chord for a magnifying feature (Hold Steam button + L1 for default, but can be mapped as a toggle to one of the back buttons or wherever you like) which is enough for a lot of titles.
i use it with deemix-gui to download my music. works like a charm (using your ARL as login method still works)
but Apple Karma is so wrecked, it’s hopeless
The last information i found is from 2015 (the one that looks like MacOS). There are no direct backdoors on the installation medium, although it is trivial to deliver one with software updates since the repositories are under state control. What has been found is a mechanism that attached the hardware id of the pc to any file that is opened, allowing to trace through which hands a file has gone. there was also an “anti-virus” that is a censoring mechanism, deleting files with predefined content.
Tbh, with stuff like Winget and the respective GUI apps the process for installing or upgrading software is pretty much the same nowadays.
I’m running Nobara, so the basics like wine, Nvidia drivers … are already set up OOTB. There are multiple ways, but i like the way Lutris does it:
Heroic Launcher’s installation is a bit more streamlined, but i found Lutris can do more stuff - i don’t know if i would have managed to mod my (owned) Battletech installation (BTA3062) so easily with Heroic. (involved setting a bunch of Envvars and dll overrides)
If any of those who pirate PC games are reading here: for now all my pillaged goods are working fine on Steam Deck and on Desktop Linux.
I just remember having a blast playing Resident Evil 4 with the Wiimote for targeting.
From what i can see here, the USA are currently socially regressing from Bioshock 1 to Bioshock Infinite.
I’m sure you downloaded a few system builder Windows ISOS too you smug bastard 🤭
i agree, they do deliver pretty good researched articles. it’s the only news site that gets monthly donations from me, and i’m not even interested in podcasts
“fuck the overwhelming majority of russians” doesn’t have the same ring to it.
that might be. i am a pure single-player (with a bit of local coop mixed in) player, and i prefer roguelites, VNs with actual gaming elements and FPS / “Immersive Sim”-Style games, and currently the Vampire Survivor category with Yet another Zombie Survival and Halls of Torment. I try out a lot of games (If theres a Fitgirl or DODI release of it and even somewhere in my ballpark i’ll test it).
Most issues i have stem from modding games without Workshop support, using external Mod Managers like Vortex sucks on Linux.
thanks for the recommendation, will try it out over the next few days :-)
Upgrading my Nobara from 40 to 41 stopped my nvidia driver crashes in wayland for now, i hope it’s not just a fluke :-)
