You could easily split a single one of these sandwiches four ways and share some of their delicious side orders as well.

I agree with the sentiment but the order of words in the title and text appear a bit weird to me. For instance, “totally lost grasp…” and “can’t even seem to…” make more sense to me than how it was posted.

You can purchase the game in a web browser and use steamcmd, which (one could argue is still requiring an app) to download and install. In cases where the publisher is not invoking DRM (Larian games like BG3, DoS2, etc. for instance) once the game is downloaded you can certainly archive it and transfer it to another machine and run it there without Steam. In the end you are likely purchasing proprietary software (though again it’s not always the case on Steam) and we could say you don’t really own that either, so maybe take your complaints to the publishers or just use the power of your wallet and not buy those games and support libre games, of which there are many, another way. That said, Valve is actively making things better for users by developing and contributing to useful libre software like Proton (WINE, DXVK, etc) that can work outside of Steam.

They couldn’t be bothered to show a banana for reference.

Some kinda battle fight war conflict.

I’ll imagine that there is a rising tide of Amiga desktops then.

Known unknown(s) at 7.14% and rising over the Linux stat. Could these also be Linux and perhaps BSD desktops?

The DNC seems reluctant to back Kamala according to Jen Psaki: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QUtJNbGgZs&t=365

I have to wonder if this is also racially motivated. Hard to say but, regardless the DNC needs to get their shit together.

In the end you are still at the mercy of their shareholders and their core mission of EEE over end-user empowerment. Every thing they build is designed with lock-in and obfuscation to protect themselves.

Sadly that’s mostly true, but that may have more to do with devs lack of experience with Linux in general. Often they would have to outsource the port to Aspyr or another team.

Fossil fuels are absolutely the cause for extreme heat, who could have any doubt? Electricity is also capable of extreme heat so why don’t we use this more instead?

Hmm something about this has me fantasizing about a phone sized deck. But considering Valves development of VR and this development, I think they are going to tap into the android based VR dev pool for porting titles to an official Android on Steam platform.

Gee the Steamdeck lets people play nearly every game they or their parents played including their 20 year old Steam library. Nintendo could make a handheld console to do the same thing, but they wont. Good luck. When the Switch came out it was something unique, but the rest of the world makes handheld consoles with far more to offer. I think they should take note of how Sony has leveraged Steam and start releasing games on other platforms. Arguably Nintendo’s greatest strength is their software and it’s their hardware that is its weakness more than ever.

The modding is the true game

Heh that is annoying, then I learned about alt-rmb. They really do need a way to allow for larger grab areas easily, if not already possible.

I found this solution to border theme for increased grab area and will try it as well:

I feel the same, though having more options for lightweight DEs is better. I came from gnome 2 after Ubuntu switched to Unity DE back in the day. Xubuntu ran nice on all of my kids low power devices and it became my desktop as well ever since. It’s just as happy on my work laptop as well as Ryzen thread ripper with 3 rtx4000s and 3 magewell hdmi capture cards we use for visualization at work too. It really feels like a solid DE with less fuss than most.

Not unlike the species of it’s creators, go figure.

I guess this means that not having to rely on dkms for hardware means being able to run the latest kernels without the hardware being disabled.

Look up Dr. Ronald L Mallett. This astrophysicist has some interesting takes on practical time travel. There’s a great interview with him by Fraser Cain of Universe Today.
