If you come from Debian, you can also consider Linux Mint Debian Edition - LMDE, which should be even easier for you.

Currently it's LMDE 6 but a new release is around the corner, with the imminent release of Debian Trixie.

Thanks for the thorough explanation!

Then it's a mystery why the didn't use Hall effect joysticks. It the cost of the part so much more expensive?

While Nintendo is absolutely to blame for not fixing the situation, I've heard they were not going for hall effect sticks because of the interference with the joycons magnets.

Full disclosure, I have no Switch, Retrodeck Enthusiast here 😁

There was this post on Reddit listing some PRs opened by AI at .NET: https://www.reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs/comments/1krttqo/my_new_hobby_watching_ai_slowly_drive_microsoft/?share_id=ks1HasJ2tqDuCOW6TCYTz

It's pretty funny and depressing at the same time...

Awesome idea. In base 64 to deal with all the funky characters.

It will be really nice to browse this filesystem...

I use that on my monitors, tablet, steam deck and it has always worked perfectly. Bought it in 2012 and it's still not empty 😂

Well she is having fun now, but soon it'll be my turn enjoying the life, tinkering the Steam Deck to configure the emulators. Bliss!

Thanks for the Cassette Beasts recommendation. It was already on my wishlist but I'll bump it up.

Thanks for the news!

Since I am in holidays, away from my gaming computer, I've only played Bloons TD6 and a bit of Vampire Survivors....

On the other hand, my daughter took my new Steam Deck and played:

• Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara. A nice platforming game, a bit small on the screen of the Deck.
• Monster Sanctuary. A Pokémon-like Metroidvania, with turn-based battles alla old Final Fantasy games. This one is perfect for the Deck.

Isn't the guy drinking a beer missing a finger?

I never watched the show so I am not sure.

Some interesting answers.

EDIT: even better.

And the viruses that write themselves to the boot sectors of the hard drive?

Does anyone have an idea what would happen if one runs a Windows virus with Wine ?

Good, now make the engine open source Iike Carmack did for Doom 2 & 3 🤪

/s it will never happen as this game, although being great, is full of proprietary frameworks/3rd party libs.

The point was trying to make is that PC is often a second rate citizen in these collectors editions.

My guess is that if you're customer of these editions, you want a "beautiful" object full of goodies, and, as a collector item, you won't open them or use them anyway.

I guess this is the reason they started to make them without a version of game included these last few years.

This edition is available for Switch, PS5, Xbox > Series X/S and PC. The PC version, however, ships with a download code and not physical copies of both games. Preorders start on April 18 and end on May 18, with a release sometime after that.

For 666$, no physical game copy for the PC ?

I always find shitty when multiplatform deluxe limited editions are inferior on PC than on console, but here it's even worse: Doom 2 is THE PC game.

Yes the first dives in Dave the Diver are wonderful with the beautiful pixel art.

But I found this game deeply disturbing: you kill the most fish possible to make the most money possible, but not the dolphins because they are cute. I found this game is a perfect symbol of the overproductivism of our era, while the earth is dying. I know it's just a game, but the fact the game creator are not even aware of the philosophy their game is carrying, left a bitter taste in my mouth.

And yeah, the game is full of FOMO even in their dlcs, and the huge amount of collabs with other overly popular game make me think, in the end, it's a pure empty marketing vessel. An it's fake indie !

Dave the diver DLC is limited in time AND not free...Ouch ! I am glad I have lost interest in the game :)

I am playing 3 games in parallel:

• Battlefield 4. Discovered only 2 months ago. The game is 10 years old and the server have, at best, only 2000 people in it😂. But it is great and achievements hunting is fun, quick quick before the servers close !
• Control. It feels like "x-files, the game". It's mysterious, confusing and after all, enjoyable. The art direction and the fights are great.
• Gris, my small game for the evening. Not really started but it's the replacement for my previous small game The Gardens Between which was .....ok. Enjoyable and short.

Ah, and I have ordered my Steam Deck 🙈

When gog (or the publisher) delists a game, is it like on steam ? I.e. if you "own" the game before the delisting, you can still play it afterwards?

At first I found achievements a bit ridiculous, like in the old days at school where you received an image if you did good.

In the meantime, some smart achievements forced me out of my play style and made me try things I would never had the idea of trying. Those are the best achievements for me. The game with such achievements that triggered the achievement crazyneness of mine was Trine 2 😁
