Try it, you might be surprised. I played WoW under Linux like 15 years ago, and for a couple of patches WoW ran much better under Linux than Windows because of a bug in the GPU driver or something. The Wine folks handle buggy Windows software all the time, and might fix bugs that MS won’t bother with.
Yeah, the issue is not “Microsoft’s usage of the XML format”. The issue is that they blatantly bought their format’s standardization, and then intentionally released an implementation that substantially deviated from the specs, making sure that MSO was the only “compatible” implementation.
Your save files carry over through the three games which was unique at the time
Still pretty unique, isn’t it? I remembered this feature a couple days ago, and couldn’t think of another example.
First one is an AA game I guess. Better production value than an indie title, but far from Skyrim or GTA.
She looks bored out of her mind lol, “c’mon Uma you can do this, think about the swimming pool this movie’s gonna pay for…”
Yes, but everything above it (including drivers) is custom-made and tightly controlled by Google.

My tech-illiterate mom uses my Jellyfin instance with no issues. I sent her a link to the app store, her credentials, my server’s hostname and that was it. And once it’s set up, Jellyfin is much more straightforward to use than Plex.
Sure Jellyfin has issues and doesn’t support as many types of devices, but Plex is far from perfect. I use it like twice a year, and the UI gets more and more confusing with each update IMO.
Yeah, if they’re not lying it will be the worse phone ever made. The US-made Purism Liberty is $2000 and has similar specs to the Asia-made, $800 Librem 5, which is already overpriced compared to Android devices.
Yeah but if the script which initiates the connection to the local server is blocked there’s no connection to intercept in the first place.
Nah, the script connects to a server run by the Instagram or Facebook app and feeds it info, bypassing isolation mechanisms entirely. I think ublock or other script-blocking add-ons might work though.
Yeah the point is just to soften the populace to the idea. Our fucking PM covered for pedophile priests in a Catholic school 30 years ago, he doesn’t give any fuck about kids.
Yes ! Counter-Strike 1.6 runs natively on linux. Just install Steam then CS as you’d do on Windows.
Warcraft 3 (original and reforged) should work through Wine. You can install it manually, or with a tool like Lutris.
I agree, but as a mobile dev I wish they’d leave the OS alone instead of “optimizing” it, creating new exceptions to the rule and edge cases in the process…
Yeah, with Arch the install and initial setup is the hard part, but they do that for you so I don’t get the point of going with Manjaro.
That’s just not true, chatgpt & co are hugely popular, which is a big part of the issue.
Why bother switching then?
Plex sucks but jellyseer, the *arr stack and jellyfin are all open source and entirely free. Together they provide an experience almost as straightforward as any commercial streaming platform: find a media on jellyseerr and request it with a single click. A few minutes* later the media is available in Jellyfin, and you can watch it on your computer, smartphone, smart TV, …
*with Usenet and a good internet connection
I know, I meant that although I’m interested in the tech I’ve barely tried it.
They don’t give a fuck. AI shit stealing the name of actual bands pop up on my release radar playlist all the time, and there’s no way to report it even though it’s certainly against the TOS and even illegal.
Plus Daniel Ek owns an AI musak factory, and letting users filter his slop would make his numbers go up slower.
