  • actually, yes. you test solutions „manually“ on servers and then roll them out with ansible across the whole infrastructure, neatly kept and carefully maintained in your local git instance. like raking a zen garden sometimes

  • and forgot or ignored that it often is not the dev who gets most of the money at all but publishers like ea and ubisoft. why should customers act in defense of those companies who actively try and make gaming worse for everyone?

    an indie dev paying 30% is expensive but steam is really a premium platform for distributing games. it would be nice if it were cheaper but I don‘t really understand the outrage here

  • technically nothing but it serves as a privacy respecting alternative to meta/google controlled messengers.

    things like mastodon and pixelfed are rather easy to wrap your head around and replace their big tech counterparts with if you are the average user.

    there is no real replacement for an instant messaging/sms like experience. matrix is at the moment still a bit too complicated to get into if you have come to expect a workflow like: download an app -> write your phone contacts a message.

    so although it is not federated it is the best we have got at the moment in my opinion

  • i wouldn't generally say not ready for newbies. It depends on your hardware and your individual way of doing things.

    you cannot just expect that year or decade long windows habits translate seamlessly to Linux. so there will be a bit of a wall to climb for most people and many failed attempts. that is ok. just try again if you feel like it and you will arrive eventually with a hell of a new computer related problem solving skillset you automatically pick up along the way

  • I'm at the moment quite sick of competetive multiplayergames in general. If you have to resort to malware to thwart cheating in a cost effective way maybe the very Concept of anonymous(as in playing with randoms instead in small communitys on moderated servers) multiplayer itself is flawed

  • my opinion: it's not stealing in the Classic sense because if you copy something you don't take it away from its owner. it might be against the law because intellectual property is a concept.
