Didn’t read the article.
The idea of online only software irritates me. Of course multiplayer games have to work this way. When blizzard and Ubisoft started requiring an active connection for single player games that was just going too far.
Can you imagine sitting at your computer, doing literally anything. The screen goes strait to blue with the windows shutting down screen saying, “Internet disrupted, please contact your provider for support”.
I still occasionally lurk on reddit, just a few obscure subs like r/fedora. Lemmy is the first social platform I’ve actually commented on.
Honestly I wasn’t to interested in the whole “movement” against the API changes. Being a nerd, the underlying tech behind activitypub is what got me interested.
Can you imagine being so tired, even CPR can’t wake you up.
This site is a bit more extensive.
I used it for about one year on my media pc (bedroom tv computer for web browsing and watching videos)
Only problem I had was my gnome theme got messed up after an update. Using the reset to defaults in tweaks fixed it.
The shipped software for switching Kernels was nice. Never did notice any change in stability going from LTS to latest though.
“…causing worry about the space sim on PC, but a God of War…”
wat?
I played the first and maybe 3rd game back in the day. You could ground boost but virtical flight was more inertia based. The footage had no real walking around, so I wonder if you’ll even have a boost bar to deal with.
I don’t preorder anymore, even a game I’m confident I’ll like. Will probably pick it up before it gets discounted though.
I know that feel. Go to any forum for a distro and there will be people writing glowing reviews about how this OS solved my distro hopping. The next one will say the previous was trash!
I went with Fedora for my gaming desktop and I think the only controllers supported out of the box were direct input controllers. Personally I have a Xbox series x controller and wireless dongle. By default the dongle is used as a wifi adapter which kind of took me by surprise.
To get the controller working, I had to install the Xone kernal module from git. After that everything worked fine. Steam, Lutris and yuzu. Once you get a controller working on the system it pretty much works for any app that uses controller input.
Distributions can have a big impact on the effort and knowledge you need to get things working. For example Nobara flat out asks if you want to install xbox controller support.
Probably couldn’t teleport the magic immune cloth.
