- Comment on Mesa 25.1.5 brings more bug fixes for Linux graphics drivers 4 days ago:
Will the recent performance gains they found in Windows be realized in Linux as well? I read somewhere they found like 9% in a recent Windows driver.
- Comment on Subnautica 2 creators offer no explanation for sudden regime change, instead promise "no loot boxes" 5 days ago:
Unknown Worlds saying “no loot boxes” is like a cereal company saying “we don’t plan to add any mice to this batch of corn flakes”. I, uh, never thought you were going to?
As usual, money ruins everything.

I’m sure this will be a long any day now. 💀
I was super cranky with 3DMark on NYD 2025 and left them a nasty review: Image
- Comment on Stellar Blade works well on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck 5 weeks ago:
Played the Steam demo this weekend on Bazzite with RTX 3080 LHR (12 GB). Performance started off fine but started hitching over time.
- Comment on Your snacks are trying to kill you in Leftovers KO!, aka Punch-Out for foodies 1 month ago:
The title of this post hit my aging, 2025-addled brain and for a brief moment I thought it was a remake of Food Fight that I used to play on WWIV BBSes. Alas.
- Comment on Ubuntu 25.04 upgrades halted due to Kubuntu users getting a broken desktop 2 months ago:
One of the lovely things about Bazzite is that you can generally access the last working system when something breaks just by rebooting. This future sucks but it ain’t all bad.
- Comment on Assassin’s Creed Shadows is Steam Deck Verified 3 months ago:
I hope so. I snagged Mirage in a Steam sale late last year and I haven’t been able to play it at all yet.

They eventually walked back what caused the recent controversy but they’ve been losing user goodwill for years. techcrunch.com/…/mozilla-rewrites-firefoxs-terms-…
- Comment on Netflix brought back A Different World of AI-upscaled nightmare fuel 3 months ago:
I remember TNT used to show the later seasons of Angel, which was originally 16:9, cropped to 4:3 and then stretched back to 16:9. 🤮
Please leave the original aspect ratio alone. Also fuck AI.

ProtonUp-Qt is slick and painless. Comes pre-installed on Bazzite.

We have the technology to keep hot things hot. :D
- Comment on Ordering coffee in the USA triggers me 5 months ago:
I don’t get overpaying a shop for coffee. I can get over 43 16 oz cups from a 2 lb bag of whole bean. Not the cheap shit, either. I buy the good stuff from a co-op in Wisconsin. With my minimal time and labor investment, I end up paying about $0.85 for 16 oz.
Why go to a shop? Human interaction?

Wife won’t let me pirate so I may see it on physical media if they ever release it that way. I’m done with Disney+.

This post made me try the demo! Art direction is just lovely and the broom racing is a lot of fun. Looking forward to this one.

We used Bitbucket Server back when they offered an on-premesis solution. Replaced it with gitea, which seems quite good so far.

Ugh no ty. I don’t want to care about this game until it has a release date. Better yet, tell me a week after the release. 😆

Yeah, those games were something special.

Man I played a lot on that map. Just a ridiculous amount of hours. Did it have a name? Opposing Worlds?
- Comment on Microsoft made me sign in on their Xbox Accessories app to update the firmware on my controller 8 months ago:
I can’t speak to Bluetooth as I don’t know much about it from a software development perspective, but when I first started working with USB I was surprised to find that the hardware is really simple but there’s a ton of software that makes it work. Specifications evolve over time to add features or improve efficiency. This neccesitates code changes, and those code changes have to be made at both ends of the connection if you want the devices to continue to be able to talk to each other. Aside from maintaining the interface code, there are probably also changes and improvements to the device itself. Thus, firmware updates. Make sense?

I’ll take a look. Thanks for the suggestion!

Good advice on balance, but we’re a small company. In addition to being SSE I’m also what passes for IT. 😆
