Bumi looks to be concocting some mischief. Possibly a slide to get down from there! 😁

I had no idea there were changes made to the grey OoT! My friend had that one but I never played it much at his house.

EndeavourOS is great! It’s pure Arch with a few of their utilities included (which are easy to remove). I like that it provides a good set of defaults for a fully configured desktop system, so there’s no fiddling with installing every thing else you need after the initial OS installation.

That’s why I used the word “decent” instead of something like “good”.

Valve (along with Itch.io) also removed several LGBTQ2S+ games recently due to some complaints from payment processors, and I think that’s terrible. (your first link is not working at the moment, so maybe that was mentioned there?) GoG, on the other hand, released some of those removed games for free.

Valve is absolutely not perfect and they have done other bad things before, but when you’re competing with Epic, or EA Origin, or whatever Ubisoft calls their shit, it’s easy to see why they dominate the market. GoG is probably the only other company that also behaves “decently”, has a good product, and is in a similar space with Steam.

Another example that Steam doesn’t maintain dominance via market abuse, but rather by being decent in a market where the competition is downright awful.

Megaman or X?

Fantastic song and my favorite Pink Floyd album. Great album art too.

I run Sunshine on Arch-KDE-Wayland with a 4070Ti and stream at 1440 to another PC running the same thing. I haven’t checked frame rates in a while but it seems to be running fine for me.

Does the Thor run Linux with the standard Moonlight client? If you haven’t looked yet, double check Moonlight’s settings and make sure the frame rate, resolution, and other settings look ok.

If you’re streaming a Steam game, also make sure Steam doesn’t have it’s recording enabled. I think Valve enabled it by default some time ago and that tanked my frame rate at the time. There’s a “Game Recording” section in Steam’s settings where you can turn it off.

Sunshine also has logs in the Troubleshooting section on its web client. Maybe see if there’s anything fishy in there too.

This guy! ☝ What a joker! 😂😂😂😂😂

It’s not lip service. The large platforms are now the official propaganda arm of fascism.

Ah yes, a fine example of small government free market.

I’m cool with that.

This! ☝

I block it’s MAC at the router to prevent internet access but I still allow it on the LAN for ALVR. The ALVR client can be side loaded so no need to let the Quest online.

Hopefully it’s not spoofing a different MAC to be sneaky though. I’ll have to check my router logs.

Tedious tasks are also great for assigning to juniors to help them learn.

I’ll often use tedious tasks as a testing ground for new technologies as well. Tedium leads to innovation.

Don’t worry, they’re probably going to he big and stupid looking in reality. Plus, the obnoxious AI bro wearing them will be easy to identify.

For a lot of people, building a PC is magic. It’s just not something they’re familiar with, even if we consider it easy. I have smart friends who buy the worst off the shelf laptops, but it does what they need and they choose to spend their time on other things. Meanwhile, I check my local PC part shop for sales almost daily. 😄

If this provides a good out of box experience, I can see the appeal.

Also, it’s nice that you could buy a pre-built one or build your own if you want.

When prices drop it’s because privatization is the best and nothing else but privatization! When prices skyrocket it’s because of unforseen external market factors but still somehow record profits.

Taxes are bad cause they pay for public infrastructure, schools, and all kinds of public goods. That’s gross disgusting communism.

This is extortion protection money that all goes into Trump’s pockets. This is glorious amazing capitalism with a Christ seal of approval, so its good.

(Ya, I don’t get it either. Sounds like a tax to me too)
