That’s why I use Steam and do not buy on GOG.

Wait, why Steam? GOG only sells DRM-free games. Any Windows game that works through Steam on Linux, works downloading it from GOG with standalone WINE. Or via things like Heroic Launcher, Lutris or Bottles.

Yea, that as well for sure.

I have a Legion Go, not a ROG Ally, so I may be wrong here. But Handheld Daemon (HHD) (included OOTB with handheld images) supports fine TDP/fan controls. You get to it by long-pressing the button that brings up the Quick Access Menu in big picture mode.

HHD allows those things though? https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/134674c4-c30b-470b-8800-d61ec900c3e4.webp

It even hooks into the Steam TDP controls: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/pictrs/image/6c050c1e-6d02-4cad-9eff-f6d29f5e49f2.webp

(disclaimer: again, this is a legion go, i cannot confirm that for the rog ally)

Thanks for the article, super interesting to see his predictions, they weren’t that far off.

I believe the place it was banned, was on consoles.

Yo, thanks heaps for this recommendation. I just switched to linux a few weeks back and have been wondering how to get Nexus running.

If you haven’t played since relatively early in it’s release, I believe that was a bug that has now been fixed.

princessnorah, 4 miesiące temu

No, it’s a mobile-only feature. On desktop the game only saves once the day ends, either via bed or exhaustion.

Was it the People Make Games video? Because there was a follow up to it. Am going to link both for anyone that wants a deep dive into how scummy Roblox is:

Yeah like, in one section it says they’re only supposed to take out of what’s left once necessities are covered, and in another it says he gets help from friends and family for food and clothes. Those are necessities!

I seriously don’t understand how people can still hold Valve up as this paragon of virtue, defender of gamers everywhere.

I think they were implying they like their instance but wish they could downvote sometimes. My instance doesn’t allow it either, and coming from more than a decade on Reddit, it can be frustrating at times. Still, I wouldn’t leave Blahaj because my interests align with those of the instance’s owners.

So I just ran across this, after leaving a comment in that same thread. Posting it again here to try and add some sanity back to this discussion:

Okay, but there’s a line here somewhere. Pushing for new features and complaining in the issue tracker that a bug hasn’t been fixed soon enough is absolutely entitlement. Expecting someone to follow through on their word and release the source code is another thing entirely. Especially if they make the decision to stop working on it.

Go check out this EoL statement from the developer of Nomie. He open-sourced the code without even being asked too.

princessnorah, 11 miesięcy temu (edited 11 miesięcy temu)

You’re putting words in their mouth. Also, as far as I know, the developer is a woman.

princessnorah, 11 miesięcy temu

Wait, this is actually, finally real?

princessnorah, 11 miesięcy temu

Cool, so they went from a 5yr release schedule to a 12yr one.

That also reeks of not fully understanding accessibility needs though. Does it allow breath input for example? www.quadstick.com

princessnorah, rok temu

Okay, but you already can’t use a keyboard and mouse in most games on an Xbox. It has to specifically be enabled by the developer, and the game would have to be coded to even accept that input.

All HID input devices have identifiers that they communicate to the host to determine their functions. I guess you could potentially make a device that appears to be a controller and translates keyboard/mouse with a couple USB inputs. You could probably get a Pi to do that. But no one cares about winning on console that badly, they just go play on PC 🙄

princessnorah, rok temu

I wonder if QuadStick has approval. Specifically designed for people with minimal to no hand function, which their controller isn’t going to fucking work for.

princessnorah, rok temu (edited rok temu)

You’re correct about the specs of the device. However, after announcement/release there was controversy that the cable included in the box is only capable of USB 2.0 transfer speeds. But Marques Brownlee pointed out that the same is usually true with the included cable for Android devices too. I got a portable SSD to use with my iPad Pro and it just comes with a short high-speed cable anyway…

Edit: The included cable with the iPad is also only 2.0 speeds, even though it has a USB4 40Gbps port.

princessnorah, rok temu

Okay, then I’m going to default back to the fact that someone’s going to break the DRM and still make those devices, and this is only going to hurt people using accessible controllers.

princessnorah, rok temu

I bet they also won’t approve controllers designed to work on other consoles/devices as well. Necessitating getting one accessibility controller for your xbox and one for everything else.

princessnorah, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Yeah, I figured OP meant they didn’t play them yet because they didn’t want to get invested and not be able to save. Not because they wouldn’t actually work.

Edit: I did not see their comment below until I after I posted this.

I believe the consoles came with 2 memory cards back when they were released in 2000.

Oh no, they did not my friend. I’m just a bit older than you so I remember when my family got our PS2. They were an optional accessory. Yes, it was optional to be able to save your game.

Edit: Also, my older brother and I (faithful younger sibling backup) convinced our father to get one soon after launch, as it was the cheapest DVD player available when it released, at least here in Australia.

SMH when the Crash Bandicoot & Spyro remaster trilogies required you to download an “update” with the second & third games when you had a physical copy.

The Steam Deck doesn’t have a discrete GPU either. Though this was with an Intel chip, and they don’t have anywhere near as good onboard graphics as AMD.

Framework’s already been encouraging this, they released some designs for a Mini-PC when they released the first upgraded board kit. I think it’s an awesome use case for old laptop parts.

Woah, that’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. Are they still developing new games, or are you just playing the classics?

Is there enough people to play against to make it worthwhile? Over just playing one of the older games I still own on Steam…

I’m taking my time with my first play through of Baldur’s Gate 3. I’m enjoying it a lot, the way it interweaves characters you’ve met before into the narrative later one is really good.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone in this thread mention Telecines at all. It’s a machine that captures the video and audio from the film print directly to digital. A lot of good Cam rips were filmed from the projection booth, and could conceivably be done by a projectionist surreptitiously. Telecines though, required a large piece of equipment and time with a print outside of hours. Likely you’d need to be a manager or owner to get away with it, or have their blessing.

I remember the excitement of finding a Telecine for a movie in theatres rather than a Cam. It felt like striking gold. I bet the people releasing those in scene groups would be treated like gods back then.

princessnorah, rok temu

Also, Telesyncs, which would be labelled TS, is when you have that high quality cam recording and sync it to a direct recording of the audio. The audio often came from the FM microbroadcast that are designed for hearing-aid users.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:35mm_film_audio_macro.jpg Dolby Digital is an image of a digital signal (basically a QR code) that is between the cog-wheel holes on one side. Good Telecine machines are able to record the full surround track from this. That used to be the absolute best you could get while something was still in theatres. Often better than award copies, they had no stupid watermarks.
