Seen the video of the crash and it’s hard to feel bad for someone driving a flash car at 100mph into a rock wall.
Like if they were putputting along at 60, and a rock fell and mooshed em, fine, that’s sad and unfortunate. He done it to himself. I feel bad for his family and friends, no one should have to face the loss of a loved one suddenly. Don’t feel bad for him though.

Works on windows, Mac and Linux. Connects to GOG, Epic and Amazon.


Kernel level anticheat. There’s very effective anticheat that is not kernel level and therefore works fine on Linux.


I have a win10 machine, for literally one program. It’s Pioneer Rekordbox. It’s required to analyse tracks for my Pioneer DJ decks. Runs fine in wine/proton, but there’s no usb pass-through so I can’t export to a usb to play on the decks standalone or plug my laptop into the decks for some features I mostly don’t use anyway.
I recently tried out WinBoat, and it crashes all of WinBoat. Tried in a VM, but won’t run properly. So I pulled out my old Surface Pro 4 and put windows back on it.


Interesting 🤔
I’ll have to give it a go. I have a Pioneer XDJ deck(digital turntable DJ thingy) and Pioneer refuses to make a Linux version of the mandatory software or support efforts to implement wine/proton/etc support. I got it running smoothly in bottles, but bottles/wine can only mount a USB drive as a harddrive not a USB drive. So while I can still play around with the decks, I’m locked out of the extended analysis stuff. So now waveforms, no auto-cue for vocals etc.


My understanding is that there’s essentially not much consumer law that is video game specific. Ross, SKG is his brain child though he’s not in control of the various petitions, has a few response videos about the 2 essentially non-responses.
Edit:
Video about response to first petition:

I think they’re saying they would like to see it be an annual commitment, as in every year. Not defending their shitty gatekeeping on donations to developers.
