I found Heroic today. Same games that won’t run on Lutris won’t run on Heroic either. The biggest disappointment was that it crashed a few times and I gave up entirely when it froze up. I’m not saying Lutris is flawless, it certainly isn’t, but my experience overall has at least been acceptable.

it’s called a forced ipo and if’s a thing in the US specifically.

at a certain size companies are required to go public. and indeed, as a public company your first and only responsibility is ensuring shareholders can grow capital based on nonsense quarterly projections.

i wrote a short story a decade ago where people temporarily rent out their brain to act as a global scale bio super computer. and how people were large scale cheated into needing to rent out their brains for the rich to exploit.

i have to find where i put it!

Search’ng?

they were the only option tho.

the problem with that is - if everyone switches to forks, development of firefox stops, killing it, and the forks are guaranteed to follow.

yeah i’m not going to put in the effort of creating a torrent for some local file i made on my system and then teach people how to use traditional method of download outside of an app store (this assuming they even have a PC since most people only have phones nowadays and then you can forget torrents), install and setup a bittorrent client (after explaining what a client is and does) only so i can drag and drop a torrent file into the chat for them to download LIKE WE USED TO BE ABLE TO DO WITH ALL FILES back in the day. the point is; software technology has literally and artificially been REGRESSED to 56k era limitations.

i realize i haven’t been able to send files for years now because all the p2p platforms have disappeared.
