I dropped Bill... sorry they like you to use the word cancelled. So I cancelled Bill Maher when he started spreading mask and covid misinformation. Now he lets right wing liars on his show to spread their lies. Do better Bill.

 

We have fostered an environment in which a man who has apparently committed no crimes nor harmed anyone is shamed into ending his life.

I installed GDebi from the store and used that. But the snap store use to let you use the store to install the local deb file. To be more user friendly, I hope they make this work again.

I have installed things with the CLI but like a GUI better.

So he is a bigot and a criminal and a liar. Perfect fit for the Republican party.

I guess Fox news and other right wing outlets are saying the left is violent? It wasn't the left I saw trying to overturn American democracy on Jan 6th...with lots of violence.

I am sure the right has spun the Jan 6th people as being peaceful tourist-because they have. The rights leader is an orange liar.

I switched to Linux/Ubuntu when I found out all of my Steam games work on Linux. I was shocked but it was true. I heard there are a few games that don't work because of EAC but I don't have any of those. I even added all my non steam games to steam and they work. Even Project 1999 works, Baldur's Gate 1, and 2 works...and works very well. I am playing the newest games too like Baldur's Gate 3 and Lords of the Fallen on max settings with my XBox controller.

My PC and I think a lot of people's PC are used for gaming. Now I also installed Google Chrome when I did have to do some business. I was able to make Office friendly files for my resume and PDFs with Google docs. When I did need to do some graphic work I used gimp. Ubuntu saw my Brother network printer and I printed what I needed.

I am sure there are people who need software that will not work on Linux, but a lot of people could use Linux for their everyday PC use. Most people game or use the web browser.

I am a current Ubuntu user since around 2020. I left windows for good when they release windows 11.

Love the look of the new snap store in Minotaur, but want the ability to install local deb file back.

I have an Nvidia 3080 and use Ubuntu. It auto installed the Nvidia driver and works well with Steam.

Me too. I was watching Yesterday's Enterprise. Great episode.

Well thought out and smart video.
I remember watching Star Trek when I was a kid. I thought how great the future was and all of the human race working together to explore space. Out of many, one.

I don't see them wanting her if she turned on Trump. MAGA people will spit after they say her name to get the taste out of their mouth now.

This. I think her law career is over.
I can't imagine what job she'd do now. Or maybe I am wrong and there are still people who'd hire her.

I use Ubuntu for my gaming PC. I use it like a PS5 or XBox- I turn the PC on, it auto logs in, auto runs Steam in Big Picture Mode. I use my Xbox controller to select and launch the games I play. I really have not turned on my PS5 in months. And games I was considering buying for the PS5, I will get for my Linux PC. I even add non steam games to my Steam library and play them with Proton/steam.

Currently playing Baldur's Gate 3 and Lords of the Fallen. Both on maxed settings. Looks and plays great.

Steam has really helped Linux gaming become easy.

 

The voice of Baldur’s Gate 3’s Halsin didn’t expect many people to be up for bear sex

 

The Supreme Court’s decision siding with Black voters in an Alabama redistricting case gave Democrats and voting rights activist a surprising opportunity before the 2024 elections to have congressional maps redrawn in a handful of states.

 

The former president told Kristen Welker that he isn't worried about going to jail, he thinks he can broker peace on abortion and where he stands on shutting down the government.

 

Corporate-owned wikis have ads and other issues, so fans have decided to go their own way

 

Bethesda's latest can't help but feel shallow by comparison.

 

With crunchy, tactical RPG combat, a memorable story with complex characters, highly polished cinematic presentation, and a world that always rewards exploration and creativity, Baldur's Gate 3 is the new high-water mark for CRPGs.

 

A delightful but maddening tension.

Hotfix #4: Redeployed
Version Number: 4.1.1.3648072
Hello everyone,

Yesterday we had to rollback hotfix 4 because of a rare compiler issue. To avoid this from happening again we’re changing the way we deploy patches.

Players who had downloaded hotfix 4 were unable to continue from their hotfix 4 saves once we had rolled back the patch. While this is not ok, rolling back the patch in order to diagnose the problem and limit those exposed to it was the lesser of two evils. We truly appreciate your patience & understanding while we worked to understand the problem.

This situation is remedied now with the re-release of hotfix 4 but we recognize the frustration caused by this and want to apologize. That’s why we’re changing things up.

All of you should now be able to continue your adventures, but essentially, here’s what happened:

Hotfix 4 went through a rigorous QA pipeline and was confirmed as a candidate for release yesterday. However, we triggered a rebuild of the version relatively last minute to change the version number. The version that was cooked was unfortunately plagued by compiler corruption, which was causing certain exceptions that normally wouldn’t cause crashes to - you guessed it - cause crashes.

Since compiler issues like that are extremely rare, we weren’t prepared for it. We should’ve been. We messed up.

It didn’t help that it happened at the worst possible time of day but luckily we have studios in multiple countries. Overnight (for Europe), our teams in Canada and then Malaysia worked to diagnose what went wrong, so that work could begin on redeploying a fixed version of the hotfix

To avoid this from happening in the future, we’ll make sure that any change made to future version candidates - no matter how small, or innocuous - will always go through our full & comprehensive QA pipeline, which include a global in-house QA team, automated testing, unit tests, and save-game compatibility testing.

 

Nobody was sworn to carry your burdens.
