  • If you spend a little time on the dark alleyways of Steam, you will occasionally come up with hidden gems. The indies scene is currently thriving.

  • I have been using Linux for nearly a decade and I'm too scared to try Arch. It's not for beginners.

  • What OP is doing is trying to learn how to drive a car on a busy highway with an instructor on the phone. It's not going to be pretty.

  • A reddit classic.

  • 👆 exhibit A of why Linux can be difficult for newcomers

  • So just like abuse, it’s a slow process of tearing little barriers down of what is acceptable

    The classic "slow boiling frog experiment" is quintessential to the enshittification process

  • It's for the really dumb stuff. It's more of "don't fall from the edge of a tall building", and not "don't create a market scenario which will lead to the downfall of human civilization"

  • Regarding battery, learn how to utilize power draw slider. Unless necessary, play games on 30-60 FPS. Your battery will thank you for that.

  • dredge

    I liked the game so much, I finished it in 3-4 sittings. So it was not a "pick up and put down" game. But it's probably my fault. Now I have to unlock the good ending.

    • Use the device as is. It doesn't need a lot of tinkering. But in case you see your fav game is tagged as "unsupported", check out the game on protondb.com. Chances are it's probably well supported.
    • If you intend to travel a lot with the device, you can buy an Apple AirTag or Tile
    • The device is excellent for indie games, 2d/platformers
    • If you want to connect it to your living room TV or use it as a gaming console, you can buy a dock and a pair of controllers. Great for local play.
  • trying to install apps or programs on the Deck if they are not on Flathub is quite a common use-case

    an average user should not have this problem on the first week

  • If I made a simulation, I would be interested in how the simulated agents interact with each other. I would only set some very basic restrictions on them (don't fall out of bounds, maintain self-preservation). I would be very interested in what kinds of questions they come up with, what kind of structures they make using cooperation, overall behavior (assuming i'm interested in the agents in the first place).

    Of course, if the simulation is not good enough, I'll just close the simulation, change some parameters and restart the sim using an earlier snapshot.

    Source: I worked with simulations.

  • AI will take our jobs

    AI will create more jobs because there will be dedicated staff who needs to handle the fallout when it does stupid shit

  • I call it the gaming equivalent of Tiktok. No story, no permanence, instant gratification.

  • Finished Dredge, and now onto Somerville

  • Yes true, but aside from that?
