I know this doesn’t help you, but someone might find it useful: Steam’s two-hour refund limit only applies to automatic, unconditional refunds. If a refund is justified (e.g. the game is a broken disaster, or the publisher lied about its nature), it may be granted beyond the two-hour window, like it was after Activision lied about AI usage in Black Ops 7.

Looks like the ejector switch. Imagine trying to scratch your balls mid-mission and immediately shooting out of the plane pulling break-your-fucking-spine Gs.

Just install linux bro, it’s not that difficult. You’ll have to compile the F-35 drivers from source, but that’s just the cost of having a reliable system.

In one word: no. In more words: some addressing methods can lead to privacy and security issues, but those aren’t widely used anymore.

IPv6 addresses can be assigned to interfaces by several systems. One of those is SLAAC, or stateless address auto-configuration (comparable to APIPA and the 169.254.0.0/16 address space for IPv4). One method by which it generates globally unique routable addresses is by inserting the interface’s MAC address into the IPv6 address. Since IPv6 generally doesn’t use network address translation (and thus no masquerading), this would advertise your computer’s MAC address to the whole internet. More recently, SLAAC uses pseudorandom temporary (or “privacy”) addresses for interfaces, together with a unique network prefix assigned to the customer (analogous to the single public IPv4 address).

It’s also possible to assign IPv6 addresses statically or by using DHCPv6.

The survey is always offered only to a random subset of Steam users. The results only ever represent the fractions of users who took the survey, and are not representative of the entire Steam ecosystem as a whole. Unfortunately, this means that the increase/decrease in Linux usage is probably within the margin of error and is not a reliable statistic.

The person behind their twitter account is a notorious shitter.

It’s better to delay it and release an immediately usable product than to break the desktop when an unexpected bug is encountered and make the computer unusable. I’ve never transitioned a desktop environment and framework to an entirely different display system, but I don’t imagine it’s as simple as flipping a switch.

Mint is not a bleeding edge distro. Reliability should come first, always.

It’s the objectively correct choice, but it might draw the ire of Fedora stans.

Try this thread: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/kiosk-mode-for-raspberry-pi-with-touch-display/821196

We use PiSignage at work for the overhead displays. It’s basically Debian stable with the Labwc compositor and a single Chromium kiosk mode window that opens automatically to a local web server.

I literally thought that was Steve from Gamers Nexus.

I take ONE DAY away from this gods-forsaken website…

Wildlight is a game development studio made up of former Respawn developers who (allegedly) worked on the Titanfall and Apex Legends games. Highguard was their first game: a pointless, live service, content incomplete multiplayer shooter. It was revealed in late 2025 as the final showcase of The Game Awards, which resulted in a collective sigh of frustration from the audience. The game was released on the 26th of January to a decent peak player count of over 100k (97k players on Steam). It was immediately clear that the game was in a terrible state and it couldn’t retain the players. Two weeks after launch, Wildlight fired most of its staff because Tencent, which had been secretly funding the development, had pulled out. It was later announced that servers would shut down on the 12th of March, 45 days after launch.

Even before launch, it was mockingly compared to Concord, another pointless. live service, content incomplete, competitive multiplayer shooter that only lived for two weeks.

This is the main reason why Concord’s entirely avoidable failure pissed me off so much. Wildlight’s designers and artists spent years creating an entire game’s worth of assets (they lacked style and identity, but they weren’t bad) and now the game is dead, the studio is dead, and nobody will ever see or use those assets for something better.

I wish they’d sell the assets. I know that some animators would love to get their hands on Scarlet’s model.

(edit) Ah fuck, I did the meme. Highguard. I meant Highguard, not Concord.

trash-cli is your friend.

I don’t understand how having situational voicelines, with transparency and the voice actors’ affirmative consent, would make the game “unfinished”.

There’s one person. He is bald and has a very chokeable trachea.

No leaving before you git push, you’d better start working on those merge conflicts!

Denuvo adds an obscene amount of checks to the executable, which manifests as an increased CPU load (compare Assassin’s Creed Origins with and without it) and poorer performance. It also restricts the game’s availability to legitimate paying customers if there’s any issue with the “is this a new installation” detector.

Would-be pirates were never going to pay for it.

If the opinion of the public is as inconsequential as you think, then you have no reason to engage with it at all.

Nobody is beyond reproach, and nobody gets free passes, especially with the flagrant attitude they’ve shown toward concerns and criticism.
