  Yep. I can’t wait to get mine and be in complete control of my data. No cloud bullshit.

  Yeah idk why people are caught up on this. Encryption is good and absolutely fundamentally important to society. And yes, shitty people can use it too, it doesn’t make it bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨V Rising's first big post 1.0 update brings a bevy of additions, combat reworks, and Steam Deck support later this month⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  After reading the reviews, I can’t believe the devs don’t make saves forwards compatible or have a migration process.

  Would pick this up but that part is just insane. Unable to migrate your castle to another version of the game with new features…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google makes Android development private, will continue open source releases⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Google continues to do everything they can to close android down and force everyone to use their os. Imo this is a direct attack on graphene OS and anyone based on aosp. Now for every release developers will have to manually merge basically an unusable mess of changes.

  Great! Competition is wonderful.

  To be fair, I think the true heart of steamos (besides arch and just being great) is what they’ve done for proton, which all of these alternative distros benefit greatly from and make them feasible. It’s like X or Wayland. Proton is just foundational (thank you wine) to gaming on Linux being successful. So even if they don’t spend the time to support other handhelds running steamos, they really are with what they’ve done with proton.

  They put pcp alongside shrooms and LSD. That’s insabe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Callisto Protocol’s action-roguelike spin-off is to Hades what the sci-fi horror shooter was to Dead Space⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I even missed the reference of the Callisto Protocol being a horror shooter akin to dead space. Makes more sense now. ;)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Callisto Protocol’s action-roguelike spin-off is to Hades what the sci-fi horror shooter was to Dead Space⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed terrible. Tldr: In the same way that dead space defined a genre of horror shooters, Hades defined a class of rogue likes. The makers of calysto protocol are using that formula in a new game codenamed project Birdseye.

  And it looks fun!

  Anyone used this?

  I70 straight across.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prisoners of Google Android Development⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but they don’t control the app store, the customer does and most customers will require Google play. And agreed. 2+ weeks is plenty of time to test properly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Prisoners of Google Android Development⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This could have all been mitigated with a staged rollout, which they could have paused after the crash was identified. Preventing new users from getting it.
