  • There's a few open source front ends for Twitch that I've tried but I've had the occasional issue with video playback either stopping and being unable to reload or if I'm watching a VOD it won't consistently remember my position so I'd say I prefer the official app.

    Normally I use open source ones when possible such as NewPipe or Invidious for YouTube for example.

  • I played it two years ago and ran into slight issues with shadows. The game has the same quirks as it does on Windows with some quick time events being linked to the framerate.

    Modding the game on Linux is quite difficult.

  • I carry a 40 pin connector adapter as well

  • Honestly USB C adapters. If you EDC a portable power bank it's worth looking into a USB C to micro and thunderbolt adapter. It's a lot easier than carrying around multiple cords and an easy way to help out friends and coworkers.

    I think I got mine for a few dollars on Ali Express

  • Mostly for tinkering. If I'm setting up an abandonware game or modding a game I prefer to do so in Lutris. It makes it easier to hop back and forth.

    I also use desktop mode for a lot of indie games I may only be playing for small amounts of time

  • If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. Chances are it's probably a duck.


    That said they may be taking it as a sign of the other person's larger ideology. For example if they have a strong anti immigration stance they might come to the conclusion that the person is racist.

    There's sometimes the mentality if you give this person an inch they'll run with it so they may say it to stop things from derailing

    There's also a ton of dog whistles the alt right use. Remember when the milk emoji was used on Twitter? What about the okay sign? Hawaiian shirts?

  • It doesn't hurt to be cautious. Trusted sources have occasionally included malicious materials and blindsided users

  • That would be nice. If it got popular enough it might be a platform where you can assume someone is somewhat tech minded because they use it.

    It could be a baseline for something in common.

  • GRIS. An absolutely gorgeous game with some relatively easy platforming and puzzles. It was published by Devolver Digital.

    If you are lightly toasted ECHO can be a lot of fun. Great visuals and plenty of ways to cheese your way around puzzles.

    Cloud Punk is a super chill cyberpunk taxi game. I don't think I ever felt stressed playing it.

  • I think Wikis themselves are more useful than ever but I don't know how well a political Wiki would go over. I could see it being very easy to get accused of being biased in one direction.

    You may want to do some digging and see if something similar exists though I doubt a lot of websites would be open to outside submissions.


    If you do decide to create one I would be interested to see a historical background section. For example if a page is dedicated to improving failing infrastructure in the United States including when and why it was developed, prior large pushes for maintenance, and the history of funding.

    I feel like knowing how things go the way that they are should be a bigger part of people's political views. That is unrelated to your question though; just an idea.

  • Yeah like I said I wasn't sure where to get information on orientation.

    I'd be curious how those numbers overlap with average dating apps and match statistics.

  • I am not sure how reputable Zippia (or other sources) are when it comes to statistics but if accurate and similar 2022 the tech industry is still mostly men and caucasian.

    I wasn't able to find statistics on sexual orientation. There are a lot of companies vagluely bragging about how inclusive they are and not much in the way of stats.

  • With more and more people leaving mainstream sites like Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook I could see not having to login with another social media platform being what drives people towards a privacy focused dating app even if the actual privacy portion is more of an after thought for most users.

  • Thanks for the tip on Drunken Slug registrations being open. Just signed up

  • I could be wrong but I think there are Lutris install scripts that help with that

  • One other website I'd check out if you are getting into any obscure/older games that might not have a lot of comments on ProtonDB is the PCGamingWiki. Lots of fixes are listed there

  • I think it was a lot of shortsightedness on behalf of Redditors. I feel like there is a lot less tiptoeing around here
