Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind.
Never be cruel.

Never give up.

FWIW it looks like it’s closer to 60% off at authorized resellers.
Looks like it’s still cheaper on the authorized resellers.


Cheaper on legit resellers right now https://isthereanydeal.com/game/sniper-ghost-warrior-contracts/info/
and there are a couple of them, along with sniper elite games, in some fanatical bundles right now. https://isthereanydeal.com/bundles/16132/


Well that sucks… :(


wh… who is… hoping for this?!


How about discord rolls out a window and right into the dumpster.


FFS… people need to stop platforming that shyster… 🤦


Didn’t they already take a dive in the socials when they removed the founders of the game and screwed the devs out of their pay?


Exactly. Like I said… it’s a top recommendation for a reason. There’s still tons of bleeding edge stuff to play with… but Mint has really nailed down “here… this will install painlessly, and your laptop is going to work fine”.


“Linux Mint isn’t the answer for Linux newbies switching from windows to Linux” – someone that’s obviously done distro hopping. They then go on to cite “professional work”… something that generally benefits from boring, stable, reliable OS… and “customization”… which is a great place to start breaking things.
And their alternatives? Kubuntu, fedora, and opensuse. What? *buntu used to be a safe bet … but they can’t keep things even running these days. Fedora… a perfect newbie choice. No hand holding, half your features won’t work as expected for a windows user because it focuses everything on foss only, out of the box. … and opensuse. I wouldn’t ever call opensuse “newbie friendly”… and they use their own packaging so all the common stuff you would want to look up for help won’t be a simple one click fix since most guides and apps recommend apt, rpm, or pac.


It’s not that people generally say “basic” … they say “boring”. It’s designed to just work and be stable with some nice features but it has a slower release speed and the dev, intentionally, keeps things slow so that they can polish up all the features before they go mainstream on it. So it isn’t doing anything revolutionary and it isn’t giving you bleeding edge everything… it’s just nice and stable. It’s become one of top recommended distros for a reason.
The main hiccups I see with it is that they are lagging behind on Wayland support… which is slowly becoming the defacto standard for desktop display tech. If you aren’t really up on the x11 vs wayland debate… this likely isn’t even an issue for you. Suffice to say they’ve tried to hang back on x11 for a while, which is the older but much more thoroughly tested way of doing the user space display. Secondly would be… because it’s a slow burn on updates, you might not get the latest greatest updates for the kernel with the display drivers. So for gaming that could make things a little more finicky. People do use it for gaming… so don’t think it can’t be also used for that, just might run into hiccups.
Good thing is you can test it out, and if it doesn’t work out, try something else.


Says the guy about the project that got nailed for stealing art… and is making a game that looks like they just took source engine and turned off textures. Sure thing dude. 🙄


There should be real hotkey editing in the settings or it should respect the OS hotkey settings. As of now the only way to toggle this is by diving into about config and finding the flag.
re: unixstickers. they got bought by stickermule part and parcel afaik. Their site now redirects to sm. A lot of people won’t be happy supporting that business. https://www.forbes.com/sites/rebekahbastian/2024/07/19/how-a-ceos-political-stance-impacts-workplace-inclusion-and-customer-trust/


It’s available in a humble bundle for the next couple days as well…
Ay Yew Arr

…but if they renamed it Arch Interactive User Repository or Arch Internet User Repository, I have no problem switching to pronouncing it “eye-urr”


They do a cashgrab bs reboot of a beloved franchise… release a bland, weird AI looking movie… then get caught stealing artwork inside the game itself. “we don’t understand why you don’t trust us!!” fuuuuuckoff.
Not as extensive as GOG but zoom platform does drm free as well.
