I just said fuckit and ran an exe called CrapFIxer. Not going to link it because I have no idea if it’s actually safe but I ran it on August 19th and my gaming PC doesn’t seem to be part of a bot network… yet.

Settings -> Gaming -> Game Bar

Set to “off”

It’s tough to remove the game bar cleanly (maybe impossible) because it’s hooked into a lot of the xbox crap now. Yes I still game on Windows and took the Win11 pill because I like MSFS better than X-Plane and the last time I tried to configure multiple controller setups in Linux I gnashed my teeth and rended my garments.

You can’t run a meme build of Type-10 covered in Packhounds in WoW.

Hard pass.

Yeah, her. My ex wife and her really hit it off and we all had a great time at the party. The elite of id were standoffish, but it was quakecon and a meet and greet, so they were probably tired and over it. Carmack was cool though, and there were two guys I was vibing with, I don’t remember their names

I think Romero had already left id at that point but since they all came up together he was still welcome at social events.

Well, go meet him I guess.

I’m not sure if he’s married to the same woman from 2001 but SHE was a lot of fun. Life of the party, always knows what to say. Just an all around great person to talk to.

John Romero hasn’t been relevant since Quake and arguably hasn’t been any good since Hexen/Heretic. I’m not sure why we are subjected to his “hot takes” on an annual basis.

edit: oh, I think he’s an asshole. I’ve met him, he was not fun.

Or just pirate it. Fuck Gearbox at this point.

I think it’s because of this TC mod that these volunteers have been working on for 10(?) years. It’s due for a 2025 release

lol, assholes. Tariffs are paid on wholesale price, but Acer is going to raise the retail price the same percentage?

It’s unnecessary data harvesting.

OK, that has almost enough syllables for me to be interested

ope! No, I hadn’t. I’ll give that a shot later

Can’t manage to start an actual game on SteamDeck yet, they did mention that controller/SteamDeck support wasn’t quite there.

I get into the menus but can’t quite get past the traits screen. They will fix it, maybe sooner?

When Win7 reached EOL we were using Linux 5.4

That’s pretty ancient.

You can buy a (claimed, might just be ARM) RISC-V laptop on aliexpress today, not sure how well they work but they are there.

Consumer RISC-V machines can’t come fast enough, IMO. x86 had a stellar run but I’m personally sick of Intel’s shenanigans. I’m really looking forward to open source hardware on my desktop.

I hop in every so often, fly my Cutlass around, blow some shit up, check out the ground game and then go back to Elite. I got my money’s worth. Still need to check out 3.24

[in British] Oh no!

Best version of The Sims

Interesting it’s a patent lawsuit and not copyright. I haven’t played Palworld and barely know how Pokemon works; is the gameplay in any way similar?

Now available as a .stl file!

aaa aaaaa aaaaaaaAAAA

Whatever. Fix VR.
