@gamingonlinux mastodon.social is overloaded again.

@gamingonlinux Yup, I already had it set! I generally prefer darker UI for apps and websites I spend a lot of time looking at. A little easier on the eyes. I appreciate you making it an option! 😀 👍

@gamingonlinux But is this dark theme open source?

@gamingonlinux Why not default dark mode?

@gamingonlinux as a modern board games fan I approve this! :allthethings:

@gamingonlinux That is awesome! I have been looking for an alternative to Tabletop Sim. This isn't going to replace it right away but down the line this is going to be great for getting my friends together for TTRPG and miniature campaigns. Also it being made in the Godot Engine is a plus.

@gamingonlinux Developer here, thank you for sharing my game! It's a weird but awesome feeling having someone you've been following for a while write about your project 😁

@gamingonlinux this sounds amazing! Wishlisted.

@gamingonlinux "For The Wrap" is a nice FTL + Slay the spire combo as well

@gamingonlinux Immediately on my WL.

@gamingonlinux This is why I'm happy the Steam Deck is a thing. GPUs in particular almost feel like getting scammed buying one and I just kind of want off that ride.

...Fortunately Valve came up with a solution that runs Linux as a cherry on top.

Granted it doesn't replace really high end cards but it's kind of to the point where it makes more sense to rent compute time than to try and buy one.

@gamingonlinux The one and only "ready to run" it self built pc I bought was the MSI Aegis something something 5. With a 3090 i9 11900K and 128GB of ram. Power machine. Monster. Superfast.
Ugly as fuck. Build to the limit. Permanently overheating, even with the water cooling unit which was built in.
No thank you. No MSI parts for a looooong time.
And no nVidia on Linux. Not until the OSS drivers are usable.

@gamingonlinux those leaks are getting out of hand :partyparrot:

@gamingonlinux Unfortunately the harm this does to Valve’s trust in license partners doesn’t seem worth old information on a bunch of cancelled projects.

@gamingonlinux correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like Tyler was doing wrong assumptions again and the leaker decided to leak what they had to prove Tyler wrong?

it seems like it's another one of the Tyler's sagas that ends up doing more damage to the Source community as a whole than helping it out.

@gamingonlinux why don't they just implement the 'purchase history' and 'relationship with retailer' to qualify to buy new cards, like Rolex does.

@gamingonlinux this is still a thing? I thought that died out within the last 2 years.

@gamingonlinux Soon, you can buy an NFT of a picture of an MSI GPU for $500.

@gamingonlinux What do you think the odds are of them ever fixing Forza Horizon 4?

@gamingonlinux lol i don't get it why people always want to limited there self ^^

@gamingonlinux I have to testify, I'm a gamer and a software developer, and I have to dual boot on my gaming desktop PC, programming on Win is such a hassle, cmd.exe is less fun than bash, strange virtualization requirements, ads in explorer.exe, etc.
So I got a SD recently and I think I'm gonna use it to code soon, I noticed I barely use my PC, I'll see in the long run.
Your channel is the most useful for SD to me, and I love that it's about Linux Gaming and not just the SD!

@gamingonlinux the Linux purists have no limit to their purity test.

@gamingonlinux Already did earlier today! 😉 :tux:

@gamingonlinux You mean youtube.com/@gamingonsteamdeck

@gamingonlinux done

@gamingonlinux I am SO glad I don't have to do this again!

@gamingonlinux
ктоб подсказал, как вернуть шарику былую мягкость....

@gamingonlinux
Yes, every other day 🤷

@gamingonlinux Patrick's Parabox

@gamingonlinux Vampire Survivors… surprisingly addictive 😅

@gamingonlinux hard to pick one, but it could be one of these:
Save Room - relatively short, but it somehow managed to make inventory management fun

Return to Monkey Island - while not perfect, does have have some Ron Gilbert feel on it

Stray - I don't remember playing game where so much attention has been given on being able to do cat things. If you stick with to the end, there's blend of several different game genres in there

@gamingonlinux it also has a small active community of people casting matches on youtube, can be fun if you liked watching starcraft for instance or if you just want to see how a proper match may look like

@gamingonlinux Honestly the best rts. Try the scavenger mode with friends if you prefer pve, its a lot of fun.

@gamingonlinux TA was one of my favourite games back in the day and SC is a very nice "recent" update... I will definitely be checking this out!

@gamingonlinux So much code to go through! 🤩

@gamingonlinux Have no idea why but since a few deck updates ago, decky never loads for me. Tried reinstalling several times, enabled the cef debugging, but never works. But it worked at some point 🤔

@gamingonlinux
if things keep improving at this rate linux vr might be close to windows parity by the time i can afford a headset

@gamingonlinux

(in Scooby voice) "Aaarooo?"

Yeah, I got the 1st Rift consumer (not beta) release. Really loved where that was going.

Then Milquetoast Palpatine bought it and completely ruined everything.

Got by for a couple years by having a block in my router that made facebook unreachable. Now it's just a fancy brick.

@gamingonlinux Been really struggling to get the Valve Index working under Linux personally... First I had issues due to steam being installed as a flatpak, and had to install it just using the .deb, then had issues with kernel and driver version compatibility, now having issues with using it as an audio source with pipewire as it doesn't become an audio source unit you start the SteamVR application, and Pop!_OS doesn't become aware of it... It's a NIGHTMARE...

@gamingonlinux more of this please devs 😀

@gamingonlinux As long as competition stays healthy and fun, everyone wins. 🖖

@gamingonlinux Spite is the greatest motivator.
