If only they made it in Source Engine instead of UE5. I tried playing this earlier via Proton and even with some tweaks, all the fancy graphics stuff turned off and everything set to medium/low it runs at a somewhat choppy framerate and has massive input lag :/

Thanks for reminding me why I don't frequent hexbear much.

I've been playing through Augustus/Casar III off and on. I'm currently stuck on Procurator. I like a lot of genres, but my absolute favorites have to be RPG and RTS City Builder. But only the ones that are more complex, where the player has to manage the economy, plan production lines, allocate labor, etc..

I don't really care about AAA games (anymore) but whenever I feel like it I'll watch TGA out of curiosity and because I find the cringe funny.

Not really anticipating anything in particular for the next year. If somehow the new FNaF game turns out to be decent I might get that, but judging from my personal experience with anything post FNaF6 I don't have any hopes or expectations. EDIT: I've been hearing some rumors online that apparently new Half-Life game is in development. If true, I'm really looking forward to that.

I haven’t checked out the state of HURD in a while but possibly that as well

A couple months ago they released an aarch64 port of GNU Hurd and there seem to be at least a couple people working on it.

For smaller binary files it's fine. I use it for my desktop wallpapers. For large binary files there are a bunch of extensions out there like git-lfs or git-annex. Vanilla git can handle binary files up to a few GB IIRC but it gets unusably slow when you throw multiple large binary files at it.

Can't stress this enough, especially if you're a server operator! Any data that doesn't exist in at least 2 different places should be considered volatile. Also keep in mind that the "cloud" is just someone else's computer and shouldn't be used for backup, since you have no control over it and it requires a working Internet connection to access it. Better to get an external USB 3 drive with enough capacity to fit all your most important files; They're relatively cheap (especially HDDs) and last a long time (my personal one that I got years ago has 48524 hours on it as I'm typing this and it's still perfectly fine).

I agree. There is literally 0 reason to buy anything from Apple when there are much better and much cheaper options that are already well supported by GNU/Linux. I will never understand people who will go out of their way to waste money on the next big thing from Apple only to get Linux on it.

 

In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our teams when we didn't agree. Ultimately, it was our decision whether or not to take content down, and we own our decisions, including COVID-19-related changes we made to our enforcement in the wake of this pressure. I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it. I also think we made some choices that, with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we wouldn't make today. Like I said to our teams at the time, I feel strongly that we should not compromise our content standards due to pressure from any Administration in either direction -- and we're ready to push back if something like this happens again.

Wish it was higher quality. Still an Interesting documentary from CGTN.

I haven't tried it myself yet but I might give it a spin since it has a unique Desktop environment.
