Currently there is no voice or video support in any Spacebar instance. This is a very difficult feature to get working, especially given that we must implement it the exact same way as Discord.com for client compatibility. We would be incredibly thankful for any assistance.

Damn.

For gaming you want the latest updates. Of all the major distros, only Arch, Suse and Fedora provide that. Arch requires you to learn to about and fix breakage. Fedora has a gaming spin which works like a Steam Deck: Bazzite.

I’ve distro hopped between 10+ distros, and Bazzite has been the only one that gave me a rock solid stability and latest drivers simultaneously. It’s not purely immutable, Fedora calls it Atomic.

I suggest you try it, and tell me if there was anything you couldn’t do.

Also: I don’t support Canonical’s walled garden

And they are not hiding it !

No swipe typing = no reason to use.

They just mean you now really have to pay to get private data. 🤣

I play Overwatch since OW1’s launch. It’s competitive/ranked play mode is incomparable to say… CounterStrike 2’s level of polish for example. That said, it’s crazy fun in Quick Play (unranked), and if you are looking for a hero shooter where the whole hero is entirely different from others, then it’s the best free to play hero shooter since all microtransactions available are only cosmetics. No pay to win mechanic available whatsoever.

The bad press is because between OW1 and OW2 they completly trashed the competitive scene, while also overpromising and not delivering at all, a PVE campaign mode. After that, they moved to a semi-pay-to-win model where there where timed exclusive heroes behind a battle pass, after that you could unlock them by grinding, but that model has evolved into a cosmetic-only model. So, no more semi-pay-to-win, only cosmetics.

So, right now, OW2 is closer to OW1’s greatness than it has ever been since they trashed it. Not there yet in terms of balance, polish, competitive mode, but it has grown in the amount of modes, heros and maps.

For me, for what I value, OW2 is the best hero shooter. We’ll see when I get a hold of Marvel Rivals.

Now do Rise of Nations 🙏

Next week. September.

And I’m glad you did. I watched the entire show even though it wasn’t of my taste. Also, agreed… Andor was freaking amazing.

The show is just bad. Period. All the talk about Women, LGBT+ and POC is meaningless when the show falls flat on it’s face.

“Taking on critics might be an exciting and cathartic marketing tactic, but I suspect Megalopolis will need critics championing it when it actually comes out,” Ebiri writes. “And making up fake quotes from our heroes is probably not the best way to get us on your side."

How about money?

So much THIS. Yes, absolutely. Thanks for reminding me I broke a gazillion PCs as a kid.

I have 3 Linux based PC gaming rigs. The challenge I face in my family is that my kids want to play what other kids play, and that means Fortnite and FIFA primarily, both of which can’t run under Proton and their respective publishers are to blame for intentionally not supporting the platform because it doesn’t make business sense to them (cost of support vs. quantity of users).

I will hold the door as long as I can, but if this doesn’t change, my kids will eventually ask me for a Switch or a PS5. I guess I’ll take my shot at dual boot then.

But wait, there’s more! If you call now, you’ll get a FREE Mamushka GPU Passthrough!

I wish it was a docker based server.

96 DPI should be a choice, agreed. But it’s a software issue when an app or a framework doesn’t display well on HIDPI.

I failed so hard at this that my entire server setup idea (Fedora Server) fell apart and I’m currently thinking about switching to Proxmox.

Is this what consoles do to load games faster ?

omfg that plate is hilarious
