Really surprised to see Diablo IV so high. I think it's a fine game (minus the laughable MTX), but considering you can't transfer a license from Battle.net to Steam, that represents a fraction of the total player base that has apparently gotten smaller since launch.

Honestly the looks didn't bother me, but playing with a controller is just so awkward compared to KB+M.

I am hyped, Urist. Long time Fortress Mode player, but have been waiting to play Adventure Mode until the official graphics come out.

This has "shitty boss discovers Yelp for the first time" energy

I'm also glad to see Wayland tools maturing. The hand wringing about lack of X forwarding was always FUD and a nonsense reason to cling to the fiction that X works well over a socket and justify all the shitty compromises X made to remain compatible with it.

The Windows scheduler is so stupid chip manufacturers manipulate the BIOS/ACPI tables to force it to make better decisions (particularly with SMT) rather than wait on MS to fix it.

Linux just shrugs, figures out the thread topology anyway and makes the right decisions regardless.

Yes! Firing Shildt was a mistake, and Marmol's only qualification is that he wouldn't rock the boat.

I could be wrong but I think he's eyeing club manager, based on his work in Venezuela and the PR team. I'd take him as a pitching coach in a second though.

Totally agree. Yadi was basically another pitching coach behind the plate and knew each pitcher well. Contreras is just an okay catcher that can hit.

Personally, I think we'll drop Marmol for Yadi as soon as he's ready but that might be wishful thinking.

I'm a Cardinals fan and Lynn was a great workhorse for us years ago but I'm not sure this move really helps our terrible rotation. At least he can still eat innings, I guess.

Dodgers are NL Yankees confirmed.

I'm shocked. Shocked I tell you.
