imPastaSyndrome, do gaming w 98% compatibility

These metrics mean nothing to me

megopie, (edited )

Proton is steam’s compatibility tool, these “medals” basically indicate how well a game works through it. Platnium and gold mean work without troubleshooting. Silver means a little tinkering with settings. Bronze means it can work with effort, and borked means it just doesn’t work.

So, 84% working with 0 effort, and 11% working with light tinkering.

The post is kind of incomprehensible if you’re not already familiar with proton and the troubleshooting website proton DB.

imPastaSyndrome,

It’s also not a great metric if you don’t know what games the dude regularly buys especially if they’re already a*nix user

megopie,

i mean, basically everything works so long as it doesn’t use certain anti cheat systems. But knowing what they play would have been more useful for the sake of discussion.

fushuan,

Given that league is widely played, that addendum you did is sadly a huge blocker for a lot of people, but because of league and valorant.

yah, it’s a bummer, but most people who play games on PC aren’t playing such tittles. The current online player count for league is about 2.5 million as supposed to the total steam active player count of 25 million. A lot of people play league, but, like, it’s hardly a problem that everyone has.

I dunno, I haven’t been able to get Subnautica to work for some reason. It’s likely due to the games own spaghetti code barely being functional on the intended OS’s as is…

But it’s a bummer nontheless.

Same goes for XCOM.

Sounds like the kind of thing they’d put in games as an anti-piracy measure to get people to tell on themselves

FarraigePlaisteach,

I bought this copy :) But I do remember listening to a live podcast segment about gaming where an audience member had their hand up in response to some question. When the microphone got to them, they said that one thing they didn’t like about old games was trying to figure out the controls. The presenter pointed out that for people who paid for their games, the instructions were included. I was embarrassed just listening.

Echo5, do games w Getting the Skyrim itch again... Any mod recommendations to freshen it up?

Pitching in for Interesting NPCs. Adds a ton of characters/followers and several quests. If I picked no other mod (outside of unofficial patch) it’d be this one.

millie, do gaming w Everspace 2: Why am I not considered a Pirate?

Are you maybe a privateer?

Privateers tended to obey a sovereign government and do all the pirate things, but directed it against the enemies of the country they were under the flag of rather than just at whoever. Privateers would sometimes become pirates, though. Basically, they’d just keep doing the same job, but for themselves.

The distinction is largely one of who gets to make the rules and do the finger pointing.

deaf_fish,

I don’t think so, seems like I am a part of a rag-tag group of people who are doing “jobs” to get rich. I don’t think we have any formal government or organization backing.

I guess I don’t know the full story of everyone I am working with yet. So there could be a twist I am unaware of.

millie,

It could also just be propaganda. They’re pirates, not us!

threelonmusketeers, do esa w Ariane 6 Demo Flight Launch Thread! (ESA Rideshares)

The tech-demo phase of Ariane 6 is still in progress but has shown an unexpected result which will only affect the end of the mission.

On the webcast, they stated that the Auxiliary Propulsion Unit (APU) switched off shortly after it it powered up after SECO-2. Without the APU, they have no way to settle the propellants in the tanks, and thus can’t reignite the upper stage for the final burn.

From the live camera feed, it looks as though the upper stage was spinning, so there may have been some loss of control as well.

Webcast commentary is back!

Edit: SES-2 confirmed!

Edit2: SECO-2. Nominal orbit confirmed. First payload deployments scheduled for T+1:05.

Edit3: Confirmation of cubesat deployments confirmed! Next up will be SES-3 at T+2:37.

Looks like we have SECO-1 and nominal orbit insertion!

Edit: Webcast commentary scheduled to resume T+52 minutes for a circularization burn and the first set of payload deployments.

threelonmusketeers,

That was one of the more cinematic stage separations I’ve seen in a while. Beautiful shot from the upper stage camera.

Buzztiger,

Yes beautiful!

clothes,

I’m impressed by the quality of their onboard cameras, without the help of starlink.

threelonmusketeers,

Seems like they might be between ground stations right now. Haven’t seen live video from the upper stage for a few minutes. Telemetry still looks good though.

MECO, stage separation, and stage 2 ignition confirmed!
