  • I would never upgrade without doing a backup of my system so I could revert back. I assume you did not do this?

  • Under Arch it hasn't dropped to Stable yet, so unless you are running the testing branch, you won't have to worry. I think it took 5.27 two weeks or so to get to the stable branch after its "release," so you are probably looking at early to mid March. By then, we should also have Plasma 6.1 drop, ie, updates.

  • Reddit 2.0...already migrating off this censorship.

    You can use LASIM app (Windows/Mac/Linux) to migrate your profile and settings to another instance. Highly recommend.

  • There is no linux version. Steam/Valve has been updating their proton versions to work with BG3. I would recommend using their 'proton experimental.' If you buy from GOG, you can use Lutris, they have a runner that should install everything needed to run BG3, and it also lists some tweaks to make.

  • You could go with System76, I think they have a high-end "graphics" laptop, which would be suitable for gaming. Open source company so you are guaranteed everything is compatible with Linux.

    However, if money is an issue or you find something else you like, for example the Dell XPS laptops ( in the past have been very compatible with linux,) here is a tool to check the model and/or the parts (important) such as wifi, etc., to see if they are compatible for a lot of laptops.

  • With the gaming industries increasing prices, piracy is the best way to sample a game, much like the old music stores would allow you to listen to tracks in store before purchasing. No one wants to plop down $70 and get a turd.

    Also, we pirates are saving older games the gaming industry no longer want to support or offer. ARRRRRRHH!!!

  • I get the open source support part of your comment, but you are taking out the fact Steam/Valve has done a lot ...A LOT...to get games working on Steam. Additionally, for the first time every they have driving Linux marketshare higher than MacOS as a result. So, to dismiss them completely is wrong. They have done a lot for linux....and linux gaming.

    Baldur’s Gate 3 countdown: Exact start time and date

    Larian Studios has published the official start time for Baldur’s Gate 3, which is a global release and will be available to players around the world at the same time. Release times can be seen below:

    • 8am PDT (Los Angeles)
    • 11am EDT (New York/Quebec)
    • 12pm BRT (Rio De Janeiro)
    • 4pm BST (London)
    • 5pm CST (Berlin)
    • 1am, Aug. 4 (Sydney)

    Developer Larian has recommended players who have taken part in early access uninstall their game and delete their save files to avoid issues at launch. Unfortunately, players will have to wait until the release time to start their download of the full game as a Baldur’s Gate 3 preload is not available. The game is also quite large, over 100 GB, so make sure you give yourself plenty of time to download it before you start playing.

  • Is there a shittywallpaper community? I would love this.

  • Your friends lived happily ever after.

  • Job creators!! The job reports show hiring is up, and so are the fries!

  • More than three-quarters of a million households in the state of California are behind on their rent, and now it appears that a tsunami of mass evictions is coming…

    More than 768,000 households are behind on rent in the Golden State, with debts totaling more than $5 billion, putting approximately 721,000 children at risk of eviction, according to the National Equity Atlas—a collaborative data and analytics tool founded by Oakland-based Policy Link and the University of Southern California Equity Research Institute.

    Residents in the City of Los Angeles are facing a deadline of Aug. 1 to repay all rental debt accrued between March 2020 and September 2021, with that from October 2021 to January 31, 2023, due by February 2024.

  • I don't trust any of these players, especially Adobe, who has always been king of the proprietary shitlords. If they are forming this "committee" or "alliance," why aren't there any open source players appointed?

  • DON'T

  • Stop believing?

  • And that class, is how crazy is passed down from generation to generation.

  • Not blaming them, but at the same time, they are being forced to comply and my pirating ass is having no part of it.

  • Thanks. I switched to dns.watch after reading this.
