  Unpopular opinion: if I have to fudge with Wine instead of Proton, I simply will not bother. It’s 2024. I’m not going to fiddle with configs, or get a setup together just to play a single game. That’s ridiculous. A game should 100% be one click to run, whether it’s native or not. and if that’s not what is expected in 2024, Linux get it together. sincerely: a full time Linux gamer that is a single parent and doesn’t have time to fiddle just to play a game. Wine and most of its front ends need a major overhaul.

  I love Odyssey’s giant Greek world. It may be because I love Greek history.

  They smell like a strong chemical smell to me, like sulfur

  Originally, it was people answering the questions. Now it’s the actual tech doing it Lmao

  As someone out in the country, it’s not much better.

  This guy is literally in every group I find on Facebook. He’s made himself a minor celebrity

  Dirt 5, dirt rally 2.0. I must hate myself because it’s snowing and I drive a forklift outside

  I pay plenty of taxes. from my full time job, my purchases, my personal property taxes, my breathing tax. I pay taxes to the city, state, and federal government. Nothing would be underfunded if we didn’t spend so much providing weapons to bomb children as well as doing it ourselves.

  Pot has been illegal in my state my entire life, still smoked it. I still speed on the highway. It’s all a game of cat and mouse. I’ll live my life my way no matter what rules they make. one day it could be illegal to love who I want. It won’t stop me though :)

  shit like this is why I won’t declare my upwork earnings. My dad declared nothing for his side job construction work for 30+ years and faced no issues, why should I with my digital work.

  I already found a loophole for not having to pay a fine for lack of insurance. I’m sure I can find one for this. I mean, the 1% do it…

  This has been in my backlog for years. Maybe I’ll play it next. But I did just get horizon zero Dawn ultimate or whatever it’s called in the steam sale

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I just finished A Plagues take and Before I Forget. So I’m between story games at the moment.

  I’m going to be playing a heck of a lot of euro truck simulator 2 because it’s the holiday challenge and I find the portals to the snowy areas cool because I’ve always wanted snow in the northern countries. The physics are pretty cool.

  I typical replay Earthbound this time of the year because it’s just a nostalgic time and it’s my favorite game, so I’ll probably play that by the light of the Christmas tree this week, either on my GBA, my pi zero 2 powered Gameboy, or my pitendo cart.

  Nah, business.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A good deal of IT work, too⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I literally made money on a contract this year doing something I’d never even done. Thank you google. Love it

  Is it real antisemitism or just not supporting Israel?

  About when they start going on about “Zionists” Is where I draw the line and where it typically takes a turn.

  As a Jewish person, I find it healthy to criticize the Israeli government. Most young Israelis do. Their government has been steamrolled by a wannabe dictator that is corrupt as hell and his team of racist, backwards conservative orthodox buddies.

  They were just protesting in the streets weeks ago and now we’re expected to turn around and support the government? Nah. This doesn’t change anything.

  I think people were expecting fallout no man’s sky…and I don’t know why.

  I’d rather play nms for exploration/sandbox

  And then a Bethesda space game for goofyish gunplay with a decent story.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is your gaming "comfort food" and why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Walking simulators and story/emotion heavy games like Life is Strange. Sometimes a good feels helps.

  And Skyrim is my comfort game. Helps with panic attacks.
