  • Reports of ad-supported Xbox game streams show Microsoft's lack of imagination

  • The sorry state of saving (mostly a rant)

    Jump

  • While I share your grippes, I would want to add two different ones:

    -Auto saves are great, but not when the game doesn’t allow you to restart a level.

    For instance, late in Metro 2033, I had almost no more air to go further. I was lucky enough to just have enough to keep going. Had it not been the case, I’d have probably had to start the game from scratch again as you can’t just restart a level or load a previous « safe » save

    -Cross platform saves and achievements

    My gaming PC is a Steam Deck, so it doesn’t have much power. That’s why I still buy my demanding games on Playstation 5 with the intent of getting them on Linux in the future. I fully understand, why I’d need to rebuy a copy of these games to play them on PC, but I don’t understand why it’s not possible to share a save between different systems. Same for the linked achievements.

  • Thanks!

  • Advice for a Mac user switching to Linux?

    Jump

  • It worked perfectly out of the box with Fedora on a MacBook Pro 2012.

    But I guess every MacBook generation has its little problems with Linux.

    Mine is with the wifi going away once a year..

  • Advice for a Mac user switching to Linux?

    Jump

  • I think you just have to make the jump and install a distro on your computer while accepting that it’s not because you don’t like the first distro that all of them are the same.

    Once the first step is done and your old OS isn’t around anymore, you’ll be forced to find something suited to your needs.

    Do you plan on installing Linux on your Mac? If it’s Intel based it’s easy, but if it’s an M model your choices are more restricted..

  • RetroDECK 0.10.0b Is a Ground-Up Rewrite, Not Just an Update

    Jump

  • So what? How much bigger is it than the other one?

    If it allows me to not change too many things on the Deck to install, I’m okay with wasting some space compared to other solutions.

    Also it can emulate not just one console.

  • RetroDECK 0.10.0b Is a Ground-Up Rewrite, Not Just an Update

    Jump

  • RetroDeck has the advantage of being a Flatpak and not needing Deckyloader plugin if you’re using a Steam Deck.

    I’ve had a great experience with it👍

  • Is it just me, or does anyone else wish there was a federated, decentralized alternative to YouTube Music?

    Jump

  • Having music in peertube would be nice, but I think the artist would have to have some kind of paywall or a Patreon..

  • Sometimes, my computer is very slow and sometimes really fast. Fedora 43.

    Jump

  • When working properly, my Go 1 is perfect and I don’t need more power. So I wouldn’t want to get rid of it and would prefer solving the problem.

    But, if one day it dies, I would try to find something more Linux friendly, even if using Microsoft or Apple devices to do something they were not designed for is also quite nice😅

    Jump

  • I’ve never heard of btop but I can look at it👍

    But wouldn’t it be weird for it to be temperature related when the computer was just started and unplugging/plugging the external screen solve the issue? This would make think it’s display related no?

  • Sometimes, my computer is very slow and sometimes really fast. Fedora 43.

    Jump

  • Yeah I guess you’re right, my last chance of solving the problem could be by creating a spreadsheet with as much data as possible on every occurrence..

    I don’t think it would be a thrilling investigation though😅

    What are IO and Iotop?

  • How to get rid of 2 Boxtron errors I get every time I launch the desktop mode?

    Jump

  • So here should I just delete the Boxtron part?

    Apparently DOSBox Staging still has some data on the Deck. Should I delete it too?

  • Sometimes, my computer is very slow and sometimes really fast. Fedora 43.

    Jump

  • Apparently the BIOS is up to date.

    About something dying in the computer, it would be surprising as it has been like this for the last 4 years and only happens maybe once a month after starting..

  • Sometimes, my computer is very slow and sometimes really fast. Fedora 43.

    Jump

  • I guess I should have said it before, but it happens when starting the computer, sometimes a week after an update, so I don't think it's heat related. Especially because it sometimes solves itself after unplugging/plugging the external monitor through USB-C.

  • GOG plan to look a bit closer at Linux through 2026

    Jump

  • Heroic is fine enough for me except that I would want it to have background downloads on Steam Deck and better achievements integration.

    If we get this, I don’t need anything official from GOG even if more official Linux support is always welcome😇

  • Well I did everything through the app manager (Discover), so I don’t know how I could have made mistake..

  • Alternatives to Google Maps for navigation

    Jump

  • Organic Maps works well enough for me. Even for car travelling through Apple Car Play it’s reliable enough. I don’t know if there are better alternatives, but I can vouch for this one.

    I only miss satellite pictures to facilitate my navigation as the map can be a bit too abstract..
