You know you've made it when your software exposes a kernel bug... Sorry Adélie!

@killyourfm I'm interested too—Firaxis has had a spotty track record with Linux ports. XCOM 2 had a pretty terrible one.

@killyourfm The comment for Balatro is just "Nope!"

I am in this picture and I don't like it...

@killyourfm Sure, but how do we know if telemetry is being used ethically or responsibly? Given just how much of our data is collected and sold to anyone who asks, and given just how many of the tools we use on a daily basis turn on telemetry without even asking, is the better choice to trust everyone or trust no one?

@killyourfm I barely meet minimum GPU specs. Wow. I bought this GPU for $400 3 years ago...

Wait a second, RT-in-hardware is REQUIRED?? First major release I've seen that in as a baseline.

@killyourfm Bananas are arch-shaped... Coincidence? :archlinux:

@killyourfm Roughly how much of their free $400 million from Google is going directly into ChatGPT?

@killyourfm It's becoming difficult to separate my favorite web browser from the serial foot-shooter that develops it...

@killyourfm I hope it's less boring than the Z1 Extreme, which was just a Ryzen 7 7840U with the NPU disabled. Given history it'll probably just be a Strix Point chip with a couple minor tweaks.

@killyourfm Not to mention that any attempt to preserve these games is met with cease-and-desist letters, DMCA uses, or litigation. A project worked on for years by hundreds of people, and enjoyed by millions, completely legally inaccessible by anyone who didn't already "own" it.

Because the publisher didn't want to renew the license to the music in the main menu, and couldn't be bothered to change it.

It's infuriating.

@killyourfm No touchpads, no back buttons, Windows, and it's got Phoenix Point inside like all the others. I'll pass.

@killyourfm That looks delicious. Can they ship one to Maryland?

@emersion I say keep it simple. If you're already doing the "slow period to fix bugs" thing for wlroots, you may as well tag an RC at the start of that slow period, and maybe tag new RCs every N weeks until you're satisfied with its stability.

For example, you could finalize the feature set and API in 0.19, tag 0.19.0-rc1, and then tag new RCs every 2 weeks until there are no more blocking bugs—THEN tag 0.19.0 in place of a final RC.

@killyourfm I love this game. I've beaten gold stake with yellow deck, beaten red stake with every deck, and completed the collection (all jokers, vouchers, planets, etc discovered). It has consumed me.

@killyourfm Not wild at all! They did the exact same thing for Skyrim... we should have seen this coming 😅

@killyourfm SEO has done irreparable damage to the Internet.

@killyourfm I've been on it for a few months now. Switched from AT&T. Haven't noticed much of a difference in coverage other than actually seeing my phone use 5G—never saw it under AT&T, now it's almost always in use. I always buy my phones unlocked anyway, so the lack of "free" phones that I would have gotten under one of the bigger names isn't an issue. Would recommend.
