@gamingonlinux What they're saying sounds reasonable and i dont see any cause to assume they aren't doing this with good intentions. What im worried about is this being accepted and brought up in some AAA publishers board room as evidence that people are ok with "Generative AI art" in games and be used to justify less ethical uses.
Rasmus Lindegaard
@gamingonlinux sounds to me like this is exactly what generative AI is useful for when put to it.

CachyOS gets experimental handheld edition for ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion GO and Steam Deck (soon) https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/05/cachyos-gets-experimental-handheld-edition-for-rog-ally-lenovo-legion-go-and-steam-deck/

@gamingonlinux Not quite sure why someone would want to use anything but SteamOS on the Deck. No one can compare to Valve when it comes to support. Things like that scheduler will surely hit SteamOS, once Valve thinks it's ready from prime-time. But sounds like a great solution for non-Deck handhelds, especially if this includes a gamescope session to have a gaming mode like the Deck does.

@gamingonlinux lol - if I see one ad in a game I payed full price for, that's it for me. Gonna GTFO. I have a library full of games I can play, probably until I die of old age, without looking at an ad once.

Moderating can be hilarious. Banned someone on the @gamingonlinux website recently for being terrible. They made a new account, and the new email used was literally their old username. They were being terrible again, so banned. They just emailed to complain, claiming no ban evasion as itโs their first account. My dude, your old original account email is basically the full name you just used to email me abbreviated ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ๐คฆโโ๏ธ

@gamingonlinux this is honestly the funniest ban interaction iโve had in ages, how stupid ๐๐๐

NVIDIA switching to open kernel modules by default in future driver update for Turing+ https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/05/nvidia-switching-to-open-kernel-modules-by-default-in-future-driver-update-for-turing/
ROTOPE~1 :yell:
@gamingonlinux it's about dang time. Nvidia still has tons of 'special sauce' sitting in their proprietary userland drivers and card-side firmware. All of the other PC video cards have opened up their "how do I configure the hardware to display a framebuffer" and "how do I submit command lists" kernel code without some horrible IP apocalypse happening to them. Having a PC with an Nvidia-tainted kernel means one thing to a user - *any* kernel bug at all can only be debugged by Nvidia.

@gamingonlinux For the average consumer? The Steam Deck. While a lot of people may never see desktop mode, I use it extensively at least 3-4 days a week as a daily laptop. It's not the strongest laptop I could bring, but it's strong enough for every day use. I'm learning to love what Arch Linux and KDE can offer!

So many gaming sites writing about how โBungieโ released Marathon on Steam or itโs โnow freeโ. Frustrating to see people not doing basic checks. It was the Aleph One team, not Bungie, and itโs been free for years. Itโs just now on Steam. https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/05/bungies-classic-free-fps-marathon-is-now-on-steam/

@gamingonlinux yup and not just the first Marathon, the entire franchise has been free for more than a decade (I remember playing Durandal and Infinity downloaded from the Aleph One website in my Pentium 3).
