I take my shitposts very seriously.

Is this guy a complete moron?
I hope it’s a rhetorical question and you didn’t just now realize it.
Guess I’m not spending that Christmas with my family after all…
The devs can just raise the price by 30%
Actually they can’t. Steam’s TOS has a “most favored nation” clause that forbids developers from charging less for their games on other platforms (at least this is how I understand it, I’m not a lawyer). From a small developer’s perspective, it sucks that they can’t unburden the player from the 30% where it doesn’t apply. From Valve’s perspective, that would turn Steam into an advertising platform for other stores.
The guy in the picture slept for ten thousand years and woke up in a galaxy that would make Auschwitz look cute and cuddly. His job as regent is to un-fuck it. He’s right to be upset about it.
This is not the tyranid swarm I was promised!
effort/infrastructure to host a download and display a webpage
Except that’s not all Valve does. Game files and updates need to be distributed, and that alone is a massive task at the scale Steam operates on, both the storage and transmission of data, and the operating cost of the CDN. Steam Cloud is also not free, it’s covered by the 30% so the players don’t have to pay for the service separately. Add to that the cost of sales where the discount is covered by Valve.
The EGS isn’t profitable either, it’s kept alive by Fortnite money.
So? There’s nothing preventing someone from installing either, and they’re adding Wayland support to Cinnamon.
Switching to Ubuntu is way, way better than staying on Windows.
That being said, Ubuntu is maintained by the Canonical company, and they have made some really sus decisions in the past. Things like putting Amazon ads in the application launcher and then trying to gaslight people when the inevitable backlash arrived.
The meme above refers to Canonical’s own Snap packaging format (think of it like UWP/Microsoft Store apps vs. “regular” Win32 apps), and the way they’re pushing for its adoption. Snap is installed by default on Ubuntu and official Ubuntu flavors. You can uninstall it manually, but Canonical has modified the APT package manager so that when an application is available as a Snap package, it automatically installs the Snap back-end and the application as a Snap package without notifying the user (instead of installing the .deb
-packaged applications, which is what happens on all other distributions that use APT). Canonical recently also ordered that official Ubuntu flavors (which are maintained by independent groups) can’t include Flatpak, a universal packaging format that directly competes with Snap, in their default installations.
It’s a bit more obvious if you’ve played through AW1 and Max Payne recently. AW1 contains a couple of excerpts from Wake’s book The Sudden Stop, starring detective Alex Casey. They are written in the exact same style as Max Payne, and narrated by James McCaffrey, Payne’s VA.
“American universities turn into concentration camps” was not on my bingo card for 2024.
It’s worth noting that the nazis were probably not very kind to company owners and employees who refused to heil. It’s easy to be virtuous 80 years later on social media without ever living in a totalitarian society.
Bro, that is literally the first comment on the post! None of the solutions were posted when it was made.
They’re wrong, but you are just being a dick.
XWayland has something called a “rootful mode” where it opens an X11 session as a window nested inside a Wayland session. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij3rsqX2pKQ XWayland will be started as your own user, but maybe you could use sudo -u ...
to set a different user.
The other possibility is to switch to another terminal session with a different user, start an X11 session with startx
, and use x11vnc -listen 127.0.0.1 -forever -passwd PASS1234
to run a VNC server that’s only accessible from the local machine.
Naaaw, my dude! *finger guns*
You can’t say that, they gave us Bedrock Edition!
Really wish they hadn’t.
Clearly we all need to upgrade our personalities to a new 64-bit architecture.
I watch the Daily Silksong News. Tomorrow, for sure…
Step one, inherit daddy’s South African emerald mine and child slaves.
Step two, use that blood emerald money to fund lots of insane projects.
Step three, wait until the engineers make some of them work. Be very vocal about successful projects, and silent about failures.
Alternative: infest a promising independent project (something cool and futuristic like electric cars), buy yourself the title of “founder”, and act like it was your idea all along.
Step four, offer a completely insane idea to rescue children inside rocket fuel tanks, then accuse your largest critic of pedophilia.
