Always.

They’ve just always gotten a free pass because of second hand credit from all the incredible modding that happens on their games.

If their games were not moddable, and they did not have a community to rely upon having done billions and billions of dollars in free work and labor for them, Bethesda as a company would have probably died 20 years ago.

I wish it would take you to a list of the games when you click an area on the ring, I.E… Immediately load a list of supported games when you click the blue area.

because usually its the proton team that finds what causes any issue and fixes it in the next update or two.

but if the games dev is actively working on proton, then the compatibility will be better and fewer issues for the proton team to deal with.

Well color me informed.

i forget what its called… pihole? You can set up a small box on your network that can filter out ads on devices that you cant install adblocking on, like on your TV and stuff.

If only that were true. To many people are addicted to google to ever give up chrome/chromium without a series of catastrophic fuckups from google.

Linux has hit 10% desktop mark in north America, and is growing, so thats probably why.

yep. I refuse to have an epic account for anything.

No amount of paid exclusivity or free games could ever make me change my mind, because Sweeney is an insufferable cunt.

Also, just as an aside…Unreal 5 is also shit and i fucking hate it, and I hate every game I’ve played that has it, because they all have the same issues, and those issues are all rooted in Unreal 5.

His proof? a payslip from Alphabet.

I’ve only used door dash like 3 times, and it was uneventful.

I used ubereats a lot, especially early covid, before the price gouging and explotation set in, and I only had like…two issues.

One was the driver, whom i was watching on the map, took a right turn when they should have gone straight, and disappeared off the map. Straight up stole my food, and the restaurant had to remake it and reorder it… and i think the driver that delivered that order had some knowledge of the first, thieving driver, cause the second he got out of the car he was nothing but excuses for the other driver.

the other one was we got just a shit awful meal from a restaurant, completely inedible. Some parts overcooked to charcoal, other parts still fuckin raw… Uber eats denied any refund or anything despite pictures showing the very obvious issues, because apparently I had ordered from the same place like 18 months previously and got a refund because a side order wasnt delievered… Which uber used to low key accuse me without outright accusing me of trying to scam them and the restaurant and denying my refund.

Which not gonna lie, really pissed me off and pretty much lead to me not using ubereats outside of exceptionally rare circumstances after that issue

Strikes me as bog standard AI support misreading the situation to an absolutely hilarious degree, because god forbid we actually be able to talk to people.

I find it incredible that every time I see a bad food delivery story, its always from doordash.

Never ubereats, or grubhub, or any of the others.

Does Doordash do nothing but hire the people the other companies fire/blackball?

IIRC the hardest thing about PS3 emulation was the fact that Cell was an 8 core cpu, and at the time of PS3’s release, single core CPUs were still very dominant, and even years after the PS3s release only dual core CPUs had become a thing, with the bleeding edge just getting into 4 cores.

minecraft, if balloons instead of blocks.

“It can never happen here” - People who it inevitably happens to.

Mackinac Island is a no vehicles place. With the only exception being, iirc, the ambulance, Firetruck, and the tractor that never leaves the trash facility.

Deliveries, Garbage Pick up, etc are done with horse and cart, or bikes. E-Bikes are only allowed to people who have mobility related disability, and have to get a license.

the problem is a sedentary lifestyle along with sugary/caffeinated beverages has lead to people consuming less water.

People working outdoors don’t need to be constantly reminded to hydrate.

its office workers and suburbanites who consume soda and coffee all day that need the reminder

I wager that’ll end up dying off too.

As linux gets more popular, more laypeople are gonna be involved in its use. more laypeople means more issues solved and found, more support needed, more time and attention required, and thanks to everyone using discord any kind of easy to find alternative support is non-existent to any and all search engines, so all that supports gonna fall back on the distro creators and individual devs… and you will see consolidation of teams and packs just to handle the enormous and ever growing load, until you eventually end up with…maybe, generously, 1-3 packs that basically become a cartel.

and, with those 1-3 packs holding the bulk of users, they’ll eventually start dictating what others can and can not do, to stay in step with them and their services. Which will see more packs falling in line with dictates or just evaporating for refusing to play the game, and thus enshitification.

and pretending it cant happen will just blindly accelerate it happening.

because this is how things always go.

its one of the few things that has consistently gotten better so far

You forget that enshittification follows popularity and market share.

Which means that as linux gets more used, and more popular, the chance for its enshitification will increase exponentially.

Ubisoft still existing as a company is a confirmation that idiots will still keep pouring money into the bullshit they endlessly complain and cry about.
