And that is not a good thing.
And that is not a good thing.
Valve has a had a stranglehold on the PC games market for a long time and with this claim we’re challenging the status quo
Nothing has stopped competition from making their own platforms; god knows every god damn company out there has tried (Origin, Uplay, etc.) and failed to delivery a basic and functional option!
The reason Steam is (and will continue to be )successful is because they developed and listened to their user base without being greedy scumbags!
Still no plans/pricing for Proton Pass Family (only the full proton suite).
Proton is missing many users with this simple lack of effort; not everyone wants drive, vpn, etc.
Some folks just want a password manager for the immediate and extended family; and often times we are willing to just pay a few bucks extra per month and not worry about helping these people after they get hacked, due to terrible passwords.
I am more excited that Apple is being forced to allow other browser engines on iOS.
In 2024 I should not be forced to browse ad riddled websites that risk seizures upon loading, and further redirecting you to more shit when you try to close it, on a $1000 handheld computer.
Give us a browser engine that supports proper extensions, not this shit that is as old as the original iPhone!
I’ve been debating for a while to switch windows to Linux and see how well it works for my games, thanks Microsoft for finally pushing me to do it!
Only thing keeping me on windows has been games (all other development use is far easier on Linux); but with the work that happened with Steam Deck, many games are now fully functional on Linux.
Oh no! Guess I’ll just grab one from the high seas instead then.
A simple fact that consoles require a monthly subscription to play anything with friends is why they will never reach PC gaming.
I paid for hardware, I paid for the game, I pay for the internet; fuck your subscription just to join an online server you contribute nothing to.
And a letter away from Futa, which has a whole other world of a meaning…
thanks for the tips! I am running a Ryzen 9 5950X, so it definitely needs a standalone GPU. I am going to be getting a 1070 off the kids’ computer once I upgrade them later this year, so I think I’ll just stick that into it.
Would really like to get the seamless transcoding to work so the whole family can use it without hiccups.
Very much agree on all these points; I just wish I could get the transcoding to actually work.
I’ve been running Jellyfin in a container and giving it access to an old GTX970 but it just refuses to do anything with it.
It’s a step up from the Overwhelmingly Negative they had the other day
Very interesting research and write up - but holy fuck can we please find a way to share an article that is not cut into tiny snippets of text?
Stop with the spamming across instances and communities
Example:
I self host Outline with storage connected to a Minio instance that I use as S3 storage for several applications.
I loved the ability of writing in markdown form, but a simple and intuitive design, with the ability to share a whole collection, a subset of pages, or a single page publicly without dealing with a bunch of overhead.
No idea what you’re talking about; I’ve played two games from steam plenty of times while waiting for something in a game.
GPM used to allow you to add YT videos into playlists just like a song; the only thing YTM brought was that song searches were now mixed with those YT videos.
YT Music everything is sorely lacking. Back when Google Play Music existed and a 3rd party desktop app made it a great alternator Spotify. Then they killed it all just so they could pad their song numbers by including YT videos
This looks awesome and something I’ve been hoping to do for a few years. Can’t wait to try this on my home server.
