Not always, they only started to offer Linux support after Steam, and even then it's just a very small part of their catalog and none of their own games/products, so I think it's fair to say they don't offer Linux support but sell some products that do.
I agree, there are very few really good IDEs and the majority of them are closed source. The only open source one I can think of off the top of my head is Kdevelop, and last time I tried it it was not great.
That being said, I think the reason for that is that most FOSS projects are stuff someone started and maintained because they wanted an alternative with XYZ, and for IDEs a good chunk of people who could build excellent IDEs don't even use one, so they don't even start to work on it. The reason is that vim/emacs are so great it's very hard to beat them, I think a good configured vim/emacs can beat anything the best IDEs can do, and while configuring vim/emacs to get to that level is difficult, it's stile much more easy than building an IDE from scratch. So you're left with a gap where beginners don't have any tools because experts don't need them.
Godot is objectively better as an engine, you might still prefer Unity for the amount of content you can pay to get, but if you're doing everything yourself Godot is miles ahead of Unity. I always give this example because it's so dumb but perfectly illustrates my point:
If you're writing a Single player game, you don't care which controller pressed a button, otherwise if for some reason there are multiple controllers connected only one of them will provide input to the game. In Unity the way to deal with this is to make multiple mappings, e.g. Controller 1 button A means jump, Controller 2 button A means jump, etc, etc. Unreal has the same thing, Godot used to be the same, but a quick look at the code base and a couple of lines of code later and boom, Godot now has an Any Controller button A means jump mapping.
This sort of thing makes Godot objectively better than Unity. There are other things too, but this one takes the cake for me.
Why shouldn't it? As long as your system detects the pen and sensitivity (and Linux is excellent at peripheral support) any program should be able to use it properly.
Home: Arch, because I'm a lazy ass who likes the AUR.
Work: Ubuntu, because the laptop they gave me came with it
Servers: I don't have a particular distro I use for all my servers, it depends on what's my frame of mind when setting the server up. But I'm considering learning NixOS for this use case.
It is still being released but they had the designer/writer from the 1st one leading the writing team, but fired him due to "creative differences" so don't expect anything similar.
This one gets me as well, Paradox had a great history of maintaining and upgrading the base game with money made from DLCs, some of which are content/feature related and others are way cheaper and are cosmetics, all of that while providing mod support. And that model would have been awesome in a sims like game.
Then why are you getting angry while checking this sub and this post? Seems like you're also getting worked up over it.
I'm sorry you're in a bad situation, I get it, I'm also not in a situation where I could even buy the switch 2 even if I wanted to. But this is a big deal, the USA have fucked themselves up in the ass so hard that people outside of it might get hit with it. The price of the switch 2 is just one of the tips of this iceberg, the price of the PS5 is another, but in a short while the same thing will start to happen to lots of electronics, including hospital ones, which could increase the price for everyone depending on how this plays out.
Unfortunately for the rest of us the US is a BIG extremely consumer market, and if they get taken off the picture the profit margin decreases and prices need to hike to keep up.
Mixing up correlation with causation. A while back I was having a discussion here on Lemmy because people were saying pitbulls are dangerous and pointing to the disproportionate amount of deaths caused by pitbulls vs the percentage of dogs that are pitbulls. The argument goes something like this "Pitbulls are responsible for 55% of killings, but they're only 12% of all dogs, therefore Pitbulls are dangerous".
Oh, and BTW if you agreed with that argument above, congratulations, you're officially a racist, because those are the numbers of murder convictions and demographics for Black people in the USA. The argument is the same, and the reason why it's flawed is the same: correlation does not imply causation. Just because there's something seems disproportionate out of context doesn't mean it has the most obvious cause, in both cases the reasons are much more complex and mostly have to do with education and opportunity (or lack thereof).
I use Colemak, but just learned about Colemak-DH in this thread, I might give that a try, as the hjkl keys seem to be better positioned and have been trying to get back to vim.
I have also recently been playing Mini Motorways and found it more fun than Mini Metro (too bad it's not available on Android, since mini metro is one of my favorite phone games)
CK can be daunting, I recommend you choose which time period you like best and go with that game, e.g. if you like sci-fi go with Stellaris, if you like WWII go with Hearts of Iron 4, etc. liking the time period where the game is set can make a huge difference in you willingness to learn it. For example if you don't like medieval it might be daunting to track lineages and hereditary traits and how the ownership of land works (I once lost an entire kingdom because of it on CK2), but if you like WWII maybe seeing historical facts reflected on mechanics or learning military tactics is more interesting to you. All of those games are very different from one another, but they're also very alike, starting with one that's just the right one can help you pass the steep learning curve.
Depends, here in Europe they use GoCardless, which has a free tier. As long as you're okay with syncing your accounts only once a day, or once every couple of days you should be good. Not sure how it is in other countries though.
Didn't knew this was not normal. Although I've screwed with mine by moving. Some stuff tastes slightly different from what I expect, and those small differences accumulate. But I suppose I'll eventually get used to the ingredients here and it will come back.
I was going to say VR, I almost never get motion sickness, never got motion sickness from reading on vehicles nor roller coasters. But the first time I put on a VR headset to play roller coaster simulator I almost threw up. Nowadays I can play Sairento doing backflips and wall running comfortably, but that first roller coaster simulation took me by surprise.
So I've heard, and AFAIK Rust has a lot of other similarities. That being said last time I tried to look at Haskell I gave up very quickly, It seems like a great language for mathematicians who want to code, but it's a very different paradigm from what I'm used to, so I would need some time to dedicate to actually learning it properly. Plus, if the person I'm replying to thinks Rust is confusing he probably puts Haskell, Lisp and Brainfuck in the same category.
