Try reading these comments here. There are just as many people adamant that open source mean source available as there are people who think it means libre. The vast majority of people here don't follow free software the way you or I do, and this is a niche free alternative website. There's no point in getting mad at people who don't obsess over industry definitions and just use open source to mean software that has source code that is available. You know, like the source is open or something crazy like that. It just makes us look bitter and hostile while accomplishing nothing useful.
The point you are attempting to make here is irrelevant and incorrect. The entire problem is that there is no consensus mainstream opinion on the meaning of the phrase open source.
Open source is not a very useful term. Grayjay isn't free and libre software because it restricts commercial use, and it is definitely source available software. Whether that makes it open source depends on who you ask, and no, OSI is not the undisputed arbiter of all things open source just because they say so.
Griping because someone is using a different definition of open source than you do when they are being very clear about what exactly their license allows is not productive.
If I'm on Amazon it's for something that I need and can't get locally. There are no saving to donate. I'll probably have to spend a lot more, drive multiple hours, or both if I don't shop on Amazon. That's the only reason I ever use it.
You joined to read about other passionate Linux user who are enjoying playing games on Linux, but none of them are ever allowed to complain about anything ever?
Also, just for the record, if you ever find yourself on the internet explaining how someone feels to them then you are wrong. No exceptions. Tone is notoriously interpretable over text. Your interpretation of my tone is not justification for childish insults.
And holy crap, not wanting to use Windows is not the same as a delusional denial of reality. There are problems on Linux. A lot less than there used to be, but still significantly more than Windows. That doesn't mean the only valid options are never complaining or installing Windows, especially for a native Linux game. Which the game we are talking about here is, by the way.
I've been using Windows since Windows 3.11. I've tried every new version of Windows that has come out since. You're on an obscure open source reddit alternative. Nobody here is confused by how to open an Excel spreadsheet. If you think me not liking something is "angsty" that's a you problem. Gaming on Linux is great, and I don't care how it is on other operating systems. Don't tell me to do things I don't enjoy to have fun. That's just stupid. Telling people that they're wrong for having fun in a way you don't approve of is just weird and bad.
No. I don't think I will. I had a dual boot machine with both Windows and Linux on it for years for that very purpose. It sucked. I hated it. I eventually got most of my favorite games working on Linux and just stopped using Windows completely, and that was before Valve released Proton. If Linux gaming stopped working completely I'd go back to being a console gamer. I just dislike the experience of trying to use modern Windows that much, and it's only gotten worse since I left.
If you don't think that's "right" then your opinion is worthless to me. You can do whatever the hell you think is right, and so can I.
In reality I just use SMS because everyone I know is still using that or iMessage so what's happening at my end is irrelevant to my privacy, and I wouldn't send anything I wanted to be private from a phone at all. There are no good solutions for that.
Jesus fucking christ my dude. Not going to coffee shops is a valid option, but since you apparently haven't noticed there are not yet living wages in most of the country. Either don't use the services or tip until there are. Have some goddamn class solidarity and don't force people to work for your benefit for poverty wages until things get better. Don't pretend your greed is socialism.
I agree that's how it should be, but how things should be doesn't pay the bills. Don't take your anger out on the employees. Those are the only people you're hurting.
Eating too much of anything is bad for you. Carrots are only a problem if someone is trying to diet and allows themselves infinite vegetables because vegetables are healthy though. Which is a silly thing to do.
I guess wanting to play a game that's replacing a game that runs well on Linux and is made by the company that has done the most to improve Linux gaming while using an OS that doesn't spy on you and treat you like a toddler is a poor life choice according to you?
Maybe some of us have things we care about more than just maximum game compatibility. The horror.
I actually had this happen to me as a little kid. I had to go to the hospital because they needed to check if I was jaundiced. Turned out it was just that my favorite foods are carrots and squash. Eating more vegetables isn't a bad thing.
Ford, GM, Volvo, Nissan, Rivian, Polestar, and Mercedes-Benz have all announced that they will support NACS with an adaptor some time next year, and they will all have NACS ports in 2025.
These kinds of lists have to factor in popularity too though. Otherwise the top 1,000 would all be shovelware with 1 or 2 negative votes. It's not interesting or useful to point out that the games no one is going to play anyway are bad. A game that's popular enough to even make it onto the list obviously isn't going to actually literally be the worst game on Steam. That's just how it has to work.
