I'll wait and see what comes of it. Valve have been singlehandedly responsible for evolving Linux gaming by leaps and bounds, to the point where the only real hurdle right now is anti-cheat compatibility.

Their direct collaboration with Arch is massive for that reason alone

Final Fantasy XIV may lack the point and click tick based combat and semi AFK gameplay but it's a solid MMORPG.

Only drunk people apparently like to do karaoke

Jesus Christ, Lemmy.

I'm thinking the API protests would have been more effective if y'all just stopped moderating entirely instead of locking down subreddits.

Let the site turn into an absolute cesspool.

Meanwhile women: 6 foot, 7 figures, 8 inches or move along.

What puts me off is the lack of games this generation. I'm not spending £700 on a console where the only worthwhile exclusive that isn't already on PC is Astro Bot.

If that's the best thing that Sony and Microsoft can give us after three years of releasing their current consoles, then we're well and truly on the verge of another market crash.

I used to work for a major business outsourcer. One of their contingency plans in case an office burned down or had to be evacuated was literally to make everybody work in another office 50 miles away.

It was so bad that they weren't even willing to reimburse travel costs. It was either get there or be fired.

Just do one search for 'guillotine' and you'll find a heapload of comments on Lemmy world and Lemmy.ml

It's much worse on Reddit. There is a growing lexicon of words you can't even use in a comment without having a bot swoop in and nuke your post from orbit, all because a snowflake moderator doesn't like reading them.

I too get your sentiment about Lemmy's double standards. At least Spez was consistent about banning people for calling for the literal murder of billionaires.

Case in point. Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle, recently shared his vision of using AI powered mass surveillance to ensure everybody was on their best behaviour. Pretty much everybody on Lemmy called for him to be guillotined, whereas on Reddit such a comment would net you a permanent ban.

I used to drive 15 miles each way to work in an old job that I quit in less than three months

One of my worst commutes was when the floodgates opened and rain pelted down so hard that I couldn't even see where I was going, even with the wipers set to Mach 12.

Imagine this on a motorway where the speed limit is 70mph...
