The stuff I’m just now hearing about with Wine 11 sounds like something that should be a bigger deal for at least Linux gamer folks. Are people running Windows games in vanilla Wine now instead of Proton or equivalent, or is it a thing where everyone is still bound to Steam?

just 5 guys mentioned

Fuck you, I’ll do my own Balloons, happy birthday me I am still currently unemployed and waiting on Unemployment payments to start processing. I know shit is rough but if you can help me with getting through the end of the month, it’s appreciated www.paypal.com/paypalme/hak...

I’m at ICE HQ

This just dropped if you are on the Patreon and want to hear me ramble like a madman about the death of US pro wrestling at the turn of the century. Also Konnan for some reason.

The Patreon episode mentioned on this episode for WWF Betrayal, which won't be out for a while, may or may not include me ranting about how WWF killed wrestling. Also I'm gonna talk about a publication that isn't Beep! Mega Drive OR video game related???

Just felt like reposting this for no reason.

Unreal Tournament (2004) is free

I am legitimately quite struggling

I miss when the internet was kind of a pain in the ass to access. Gotta wait for the dial up modem to get in, you maybe visit a poorly-moderated message board or signed a guest book on someone's Angelfire site, it took five minutes to download a JPG of ALF, and you'd disconnect when someone called.

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes

Messing around with trying to get the scaling right with XFCE on my 4K display. I've mostly got it figured out. There's like a small handful of applications (like pavucontrol) where the font inside the window is just blown up to shit and I can't seem to scale it down manually.

This just reminded me, Hammer of Thyrion's last major release was, what, eight years ago? I think it is still being worked on based on what I'm seeing in their Sourceforge page but I am interested to see what another source port for Hexen II could do.

A number of software developer types saw how fucked up Windows has been getting thanks to AI shit, saw gamers either thinking about or already migrating to Linux to get away from that, and those developer types decided "we need to make games work on Linux, with the help of AI shit."

For no particular reason, I changed my main OS from Arch Linux to Void Linux.

I guess Firefox added a new easily accessible toggle switch in the settings to just turn off their AI stuff. I'm wondering if it actually does that.

This reminds me that Konami has/had a game on mobile that was basically just a lite version of this without the Picross branding and it was free. It was pretty neat.

🎉 | Today, March 22nd, is the 25th anniversary of the 3rd mainline game Sakura Wars 3 ~Is Paris Burning?~! This game introduced a brand new location, a whole new cast, a new battle system, alongside various improvements, making it the 7th best selling Dreamcast game in Japan!

The classic 19.999 kickout

Messing around with Xfce and I kinda enjoy how it feels like I'm using an older ass Windows except it is allowing me to modify stuff.

Doxxing is when somebody edits an open source project with their account that may as well be their LinkedIn profile and everybody sees them do it and goes what the fuck You need to respect the privacy of a guy who is essentially advertising themselves to their network of other rich techbros.

she just doesnt HAVE to say it like this, is the thing

Persona 3 turns twenty (20) this year

The systemd news has led to interesting online discussions to read. Seeing the thoughts of all the different flavors of computer brained folks, especially in the FOSS and privacy-focused circles, and especially the super libertarian ones. The most cobbled together FYGM pro bag grabbing nonsense.

Like all the best forms of resistance and revolution, the first thing you do is full compliance but shake your head so everyone knows you don't like it.

Lol I forgot to attach the pic

Reys dr: Whys your neck so messed up? I thought it was your knees? Rey: No idea. Unless it was the time Nash threw me in to production trailer. Or the time Nash powerbombed me on my head. Or the time Nash powerbombed me off the stage. Or the time Nash powerbombed on the concrete. Or the time Nash p

And The Game Award for Best Family Game goes to Street Fighter 6 - Alex DLC

happy Fukukitaru friday!

It's great that I migrated off of Windows into Linux a year ago to avoid how shitty Windows is, and now I'm going to have to potentially migrate from Linux to Other Linux to avoid systemd.

RIPD Chuck Norris He uh He umm He was in some bad movies (derogatory) And made some unintentionally funny but also bad TV (derogatory) Also he sucked Also memes?

Maybe society needs to revisit the terms and conditions of the social contract.

Am I going to have to migrate from Arch to Artix? Probably.

Rediscovering Cannonball (the OutRun engine) and rediscovering I can add custom music tracks and immediately jamming Power Drift's "Like The Wind" into the thing.

Still in need of help with the rest of the month. Got a lot of bills coming due. Any help is greatly appreciated 🙏💸 Goal: 900/1500 ko-fi.com/jebwrench

This mode is cursed, like wow it is wacky that Grass Wonder's speed stat hit 1000 at the beginning of the senior year, but at the expense of every other stat because the RNG decided she needs more speed. Gonna hit the cap by summer at this rate and the game is probably going to keep forcing speed.
