in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

users can still play Apex Legends on Steam Deck "if the user opts to install Windows."
I think this decision sucks and encouraging the use of Windows also sucks. Is this an accessible option on the SD? Is there a prompt on first boot, or do users have to buy and install Windows 11 through a USB?

I've tried getting into this a few times but found it a bit too abstracted to get fully immersed (that's a me thing, not the game's fault). Might need to give it another go now that there's a proper tutorial.

Die letzten Mastodonten wurden vor ca. 10.000 Jahren geboren. Damit ist unser Maskottchen Maria รผber 60 Jahre alt und sollte sich jรคhrlich gegen die Grippe impfen lassen.

Zu den Menschen, fรผr die eine Grippe-Impfung empfohlen wird, zรคhlen neben Menschen ab 60 unter anderem Schwangere ab dem vierten Schwangerschaftsmonat und Menschen mit bestimmten Vorerkrankungen.

Lassen Sie sich impfen?

OK, what's happened to cause all the Mastodon/Bluesky chatter? Is it the series A funding for Bluesky, or something else? There's been an uptick of followers for me (bsky.app/profile/snarky.ca) as well as general commenting about the two here.
in reply to Hynek Schlawack

I didn't realize the toys were offputting to anyone. Then again in the past I've often heard similar complaints about how many cat photos I boost. I am alive, not just some brand account. Those are the things that I find joy in. If you want a sterilized experience, just follow @Mastodon instead.

@Gargron @graingert @glyph @offby1 @Mastodon As weโ€™ve said earlier in this thread: I donโ€™t think thereโ€™s a way to make people not complain if theyโ€™d rather have you work on their pet thing. โ€œhad a napโ€ would trigger them just the same. ยฏ\_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ
in reply to Hynek Schlawack

@hynek @graingert @glyph @offby1 Yes, that sounds about right. For what it's worth, people have been asking for a stuffed toy for years, and the production was launched in January. It takes a long time to produce and transport custom toys, so any overlap with any current events is purely coincidental.

So Dualshockers and their Dragon Age review huh, they're just a rage bait publication now it seems.

This was silently edited out of it, with no word from them.

It's bad enough the writer put it in, even worse they're trying to bury it by silently editing it out.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

While Dragon Age is often victim of the "your game is too woke" crowd, from what I've seen so far the criticism to the writing in veilguard is valid. One should be carefull not to dismiss honest and valid criticism to something objectively bad as just another "anti woke" argument. I'm definetly not getting this one at lauch, if ever.
in reply to ojonnysilva

@ojonnysilva this isn't about silencing criticism, it's about morons like this dumping Sweet Baby's name without having the slightest understanding what they do and then silently editing it out
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

Aren't they a DEI consultation company, among other things ? I don't know if its fair to go after them for bad games, but I get what people are complaining about.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

writing that seems like it came straight out of twitter. I personally have no problem with the themes, or the suposed goal of DEI, but the execution is often lacking, even if people might look for scapegoats to blame with their biases, somethings are just bad regaddless of the discourse around it. I had not heard about SBI before today.
