The latest Windows 11 preview build in the Beta Channel delivers a rather odd change to the Start menu. For some reason, the "Sign out" button is hidden behind a Microsoft 365 ad and other banners.
Helldivers 2 works almost perfectly on Linux. I had to nest it in a gamescope session to fix some weird mouse issues, but that was it. I dual-boot Windows and I’ve never even launched it there.
No, I literally had to add one change to the game launch properties one time. It took me probably 3 minutes of googling and following instructions. I wouldn’t call that “a bunch of fucking shit”.
Until we are in a post job society, I see nothing wrong with wanting to support those who make your life happier, even if that requires giving some to those who make your life worse. Nuance exists, and its on each if us to draw our own lines on where we wont budge. I was merely giving an option to someone they might not have thought of. For instance, I’m done giving Nintendo money. Unicorn Overlord is an awesome game however, so even though I dont have modern xbox, and even though I’m playing Unicorn Overlord on a yuzu emulator. Eventually I’m going to by the Series S version of the game if it doesnt get ported to steam, even though Microsoft can go fuck itself (It can just fuck itself less than Nintendo or Sony)
Oh, yeah, thats perfectly fair. I’m already playing Unicorn Overlord even though they didnt release on PC, and it was pretty much the same train of thought you just expressed there why I jumped straight into piracy. If I hadnt enjoyed the game as much as I’m currently enjoying it, I wouldnt even have gotten to the step of figuring out which megacorp I despise giving money to the least in order to shunt some of that change to the developers
the only thing Linux can’t play is drm’d shit, and rootkit anti cheats. find a pirated version; bet it’ll run.
I’m not going to pirate software. Developers deserve a paycheck
photoshop. AutoCAD.
Buy the game through whichever means you like supporting the developer on, pirate the game to run it without the DRM bulshit
How do you play helldiver’s 2 with my friends?
I mean, yeah, you can find exceptions to any rule if you look for them
Dismissing major releases with drm isn’t the victory you think it is. Linux is getting better it’s almost there.

I just press a green button in steam
Cool, me too.
Not on Linux though, you had to do a bunch of fucking about to almost make it flawless.

you don’t own it til you pirate it.
if they wanted money, they wouldn’t have added DRM.

the thing is; I’ll buy games. the thing is: I won’t stop myself from enjoying it just because they don’t want my money.

I’m a little stricter. I do not buy shit with unacceptable DRM.
Which is honestly a fair stance to take ngl
