I have a wife stuck in the Adobe-verse and yeah, going back that far should work great. It didn't become a huge hassle until they started being insane with the licensing.

I burned a Blu-ray a few years back just to supplement some of our encrypted Google Drive backups with copies that would be more accessible in case of my demise, or physically grabbable in case of disaster. I know they won't last forever, but if Drive shut down on the same day my local copies failed at least I have an option.
Otherwise, I haven't used physical media in years. I got the 4K LOTR set when it came out and tried to use it, but it ended up being easier to just pirate the rips like anything else.
Definitely agree. Had a couple of them and loved some of the ideas (touchpad sticks, gyro to mouse aim, all of the Steam Input flexibility) but they never really eclipsed my rechargeable Dualshocks in terms of feeling right. Taking some of the Deck's refinements and giving it another spin is welcome.
In a weird way this makes Linux a microkernel. They're "macro" but isolated and cooperative. Coolest patch set I've read about in a while.
You are getting this from Xwayland, so you're running a rootless X server in the background. It's nice that it works seamlessly, but it's not really Wayland doing anything but managing the X window.
Agreed. It's one thing if it's climate change or something where we at least need to put a plan out there even if there's zero chance of it happening, but for basic common sense stuff like this don't bother. If we ever get back to trying to make average American lives better with the government, this is low hanging fruit.
I don't have experience with MSI recently, but I'd be really surprised if you couldn't flash a new BIOS off the system partition or FAT32 USB. You may not be able to update from Linux directly, but almost all motherboards I've seen support doing it from the BIOS interface.
On the one hand, this is sort of what betas are for.
On the other hand, doesn't this game require secure boot for anti-cheat? I thought making your multiplayer game enforce security policy meant it was impossible to cheat!?!? Get fucked EA.
Intel has been struggling overall, and lately has been letting some of its Linux engineers go. Nothing absolutely fundamental has been affected yet (AFAICT) but I guess Clear Linux didn't make the cut.
It would allow SSH if the desktop is locked, they're separate. If you can get in via SSH then you can poke around logs like dmesg and see what's up. There will probably be some messages to give you something more specific to search with.
That's hilarious, but not really the same thing.

I'm with you on rejecting AI being sane, but the idea that gaming wikis should be integrated into wikipedia is kinda nuts. If I search "Iron" on wikipedia I'm looking for facts, not a thousand item long disambiguation cluttered with every game that has iron as a resource. Conversely, on a game wiki my search for "Iron" has an entirely different context and I'm looking for different info.
Not to mention game wikis have way lower editorial standards, their own tone (e.g. making jokes), versioning concerns, their own new user friendly homepages etc.
Wikipedia could tuck this all into a separate namespace, sure, but that's effectively a separate wiki anyway and then it raises questions like "why is wikipedia hosting a mechanical guide for this porn game?" or "How long do we need to host the content for this game that peaked in 2012 and is now abandonware?" that are conveniently sidestepped by those communities supporting themselves.
