Mac has always felt more like mine than Windows. Nothing has changed there.

And neither holds a candle to the pure, blinding, white light that is Linux. GNOME, KDE, the world is your oyster and the desktop is your choice.

Not to rain on the parade, but as long as we allow the reality-sized hole that is non-profits owning for-profits, this isn’t something I can get terribly excited about.

😢

I’d prefer just running Linux on metal, but that’s me.

Whatever happened to all those Linux mobile projects, anyway?

This whole “for-profit owned by a non-profit” paradigm needs to globally crushed right the fuck now. It should never have been allowed to happen and should not be tolerated.

“Mozilla acquires ad company”

FTFY, linuxiac.

He’s doing the Hillary strategy: “Who else are you going to vote for, plebs? Trump?”

It’s the same picture.

Aww. I guess that means no more Solium Infernum content/DLC. 😞

That game is fantastic. I’d happily buy anything they put out.

I do like their laptops, but for literally everything else: the fact that I basically don’t own my own hardware.

I can’t install or distribute my own software without Apple’s arbitrary approval. When Apple decides it’s done supporting the products, I can’t even install a different OS like Linux because the hardware is completely locked down… they become paper-weights.

That is not how ownership is supposed to work.

Just an hour or two ago, yes.

They literally voted to let him loot their money and pocket it while he is simultaneously and single-handedly sinking the company.

That they would/could access my work for any reason whatsoever… that they even have that ability, that’s not just a line in the sand for me, it’s the Grand Canyon. I expect any kind of cloud storage to be private and protected (e.g. encrypted at rest)… no back doors, no exceptions.

This is beyond the pale, and AI was never part of the concern.

Just another evil, corrupt scumbag, now 😞

I want that game - exactly as it is - but with new, modern graphics. AC+AX is about as perfect as a game can possibly get. Just needs a fresh coat of paint.

I love Debian, but want Plasma 6, so I’m installing openSUSE right now.

I was going to say most of this, too. I’m a big adherent of BDD, which works well with agile. It clarifies what everyone is working on without getting weighed down in unnecessary minutiae or “documentation for paperworks sake”… it lives and evolves with the project, and at the end becomes both testing criteria and the measurement of success.

Runs on Windows. Hard pass.

The Mist

That ending was one of the most brilliant gut-punches in film history. Stephen King himself said he wished he had written it.

I’ve been using Sunshine for Linux with Moonlight on my AVP and that works great. The native Moonlight port for AVP is still very much a buggy, crashy WIP, but the iPad version is a decent enough standby.

Honestly, using virtual Mac Display on AVP is so, so, so good, that I want that functionality everywhere… from any and all of my devices. Sunshine + Moonlight is currently the most promising path forward, IMO.

We (PC gamers) have a wide swath of hardware and input preferences that consoles do not even make an ATTEMPT to accommodate. Then there’s the predatory “pay us a subscription to play online” thing, too.

Most PC gamers will just completely skip consoles rather than play games like that. Our patience is eternal and without end.
