i really like how this is just about the games. no corporations, no awkward presenters on a stage, just a bunch of cool games i would not have known about otherwise.
thanks for posting this - got a few new games on my wishlist :)

stuff them into a sack maybe
corporation yet again proving that if you want to be free to use your own things that you paid for on your own computer you can never trust anything that requires an internet connection to not trample all over your rights
love it very cool really vibing with the current state of software and the internet
yeah if i was preparing to take billy mitchell to court thats all i would talk about or make videos about lol
plus it seems like a lot of his time and energy is going into that and the topic is similar enough to his other videos that he might as well document it.
it really is crazy how different it feels to use a linux pc after being conditioned to think that windows is just how using a computer is. the way i relate it to my friends is that using windows feels like i’m constantly compromising with the computer, but using linux i own my computer and it works for me - not the other way around.
There’s not enough of us, but I still don’t care. I refuse to pay to watch ads.
i had this conversation with my dad recently about how shitty everything is now with ads etc, and his response boiled down to “i don’t care enough”. sucks to see people being complacent in being subject to greedy corporate whims. as much as i want people with that mindset to care, i have no idea how to effectively argue against “i don’t care”.
trans command?? dos is secretly based???
they may be referring to how spotify’s shuffle isn’t a true “shuffle” in that it is biased to things you have listened to more, recently, etc
i say something like this often in real life, but despite it being plainly observable in daily life other people still don’t agree.
it’s on all scales too, or at least it feels like it. moving everything to streaming, always online, etc. want to play a competitive video game with your friends? give a corporation root-level access to your home computer. ads everywhere some greedy ass in a suit can think to stick them whether you pay or not, yet everyone complies like this is normal and i get singled out for caring about our rights as consumers.
i love capitalism i love money
but this is a game that basically lives and dies by its mods, and this is an update that (arguably) changed nothing anyone who is still playing the game cares about after years of stability. why fix what isn’t broken?
fun is an overstatement but it can be enjoyable with a friend. definitely not as bad as some people make it out to be though
although you’re right, i’m not sure this battle is worth fighting anymore tbh. i used to care about which word to use, but it kinda seems like splitting hairs now.
i don’t think the distinction between the two matters to most people anymore, especially since most modern titles fall into the -lite category rather than -like.
i don’t think many people would consider posts that are literally paid advertisements part of “our space”
yeah i’ve basically never had an issue that wasn’t my fault for tinkering with something that is either unstable or that i didn’t understand well enough.
i will say that rolling releases like arch can introduce system-breaking issues (it happened to me like twice in the 3 years i’ve been running arch, but man it sucks when it happens) so users who aren’t so into tweaking and messing with their systems should probably opt for something more stable.
just gave it a go, unfortunately it errored out and i dont have time to troubleshoot atm
appreciate the suggestion though!
i upgraded last night! and when i booted up this morning, i was unable to log into any accounts in the login screen lol. if anyone else has a similar issue where the only option login screen gives you is wayland and that doesnt work for you or you want to use x11, what fixed it for me was installing plasma-meta
as for whatever reason that wasn’t on my system at the time. this allowed me to select x11 again from the login screen and my system is working as normal.
i know we’re still in early days of plasma 6, but does anyone know any good calendar/weather/time widgets that i can replace this one with? https://store.kde.org/p/998901/ haven’t found another good calendar widget yet.
and most are pathetic for it
i’m glad you posted about it - it’s something i, and i’m sure many other people who are struggling, tend to think about.
i think it’s generally a good thing to talk about these sorts of topics, especially ones like depression where it’s easy to get lost in your own thoughts and it can feel like you’re the only one suffering like this. i know for a fact that it helped me realize that i’m not alone and that there are ways out of the pit i found myself in, despite feeling like it would never get better and my suffering was so unique that there was no cure.
granted, commiserating alone won’t get you back to a happy baseline, but it does broadcast this to others who might not realize it: you are not alone, there are people who care, and it is not impossible to be happy again. i wish you the best.
remember: never share anything and never engage with others. keep all of your thoughts and emotions and ideas to yourself at all times. especially on the internet, a platform designed to enhance global communication!
woah there pal you got a license for that thing
