It was sitting in my queue for a bit, but I finally got around to listening to this discussion between @ntnsndr & @gleemie about his new (open-access) book Governable Spaces. It seemed an especially good moment to reconnect with ideas of how we can better work together, especially online.

Absolutely. Thanks for sharing this. It is so essential that we turn toward more durable forms of organizing than last time.




#Mastodon, we have a troll problem.

Increasingly I discover Russian sympathisers and trolls who reply to my posts with content I cannot see. I only discover these replies because other users react to them.

Attached is an example where @Gurre replies to a troll (pic 1), but I cannot scroll upwards and see the troll's post.

This seems to allow an attacker to attach content to my posts, without me being able to see it and block him.

I have seen this exploit a number of times.

@Gargron.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

am I the only one who is bothered by the ongoing trend of (even indie) developers not shipping a native linux client and relying on proton instead? I think this has gotten worse over the last couple years...
in reply to Johannes

@itchyballs not many released Linux Native builds even to begin with, and Proton does 99% of the time result in a click and play experience, it's only a problem if you're blinded by platform executable ideology

most gamers don't and shouldn't care

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

maybe you are right. But when I want to buy elsewhere (like gog) I don't have a nice way to play on linux. This was the case with the latest title from frictional games for example (the first time they did not ship a linux client). That is why I still appreciate native ports.
But as you said most people probably shouldn't/don't care.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I care. And frankly, I'm just especially tired of being told that I'm not allowed to care.
in reply to Missingno. 🔜 FF2025

@missingno @itchyballs no one is saying you can’t, just that as a gamer 99% of people (me included) care if it works and if it’s supported

Lots of Native games had support entirely removed - so in the end it matters little

Ran my way back from work at 3AM to streak out Archaea cells from a very generous collaborator. First round of plates are already cooking in the incubator - once we have data we'll know something about conserved genomic architecture dating back 250 million years. Exciting.

#microbiology #archaea

in reply to naturepoker

@STCmicrobeblog cool! I had an experimental evolution idea with haloarchaea to see of their genomes would get larger. Bc they are polyploid i thought they would be a good system for promoting duplications, etc. Haven't had a chance to start it, though...
in reply to Frank Aylward

@foaylward @STCmicrobeblog yeah polyploidy in Archea was always tricky for me (on genome asm end). The whole lot's curiously understudied (IMHO, relatively speaking) I think. Hoping the long-read closed genomes and methylation data we're aiming for can aid other researchers!


Humble has a #programming mega bundle if that's your thing: humblebundleinc.sjv.io/LKaQma (partner linky)
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

It's cool, though feels a bit... Jack of all trades, I guess. There's C++, C#, JS, Python, Delphi...
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

packt always feels kind of scammy. I liked the oreilly scripting bundle more tbh.


SEGA Mega Drive and Genesis Classics & Dreamcast Classics get delisted in December gamingonlinux.com/2024/11/sega…

#SEGA #PCGaming

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Just a heads up about the Mega Drive/Genesis Collection, unless there are region differences etc. they should come with the ROMs themselves in a folder called "uncompressed ROMs" in the "Sega Classics" folder. Which *should* work just fine in emulators.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

on the one hand: why?? On the other hand: we’re all playing this emulated anyways, right?

Goodbye #twitter you can go die in a fucking hole you bog of parasites.

@gamingonlinux to put you on the spot, a little while back I saw you had a 'Starter Pack' for Bluesky, is it easy to share it here in a reply? The idea of gaming discussions on a platform which isn't filled with disgusting right-wing Americans sounds like utopia to me rn.

Not an American and still disgusted with the world after seeing that cesspool rejoicing.



EXCLUSIVE - Upcoming co-op adventure Luma Island will be releasing for $20 and we have confirmed #SteamDeck support:

mmm i spose specific features may be it but price was here store.steampowered.com/news/ap… and steam deck prev notice store.steampowered.com/news/ap… so was just confused on what was exclusive heh

would have been thoroughly weird not to have cloud and controller given their prev announcement

I think we all need Steve from #BluesClues today. Why I breakdown and cry everytime I see his video's is beyond me. Maybe it helps in the next steps to healing? 🤷‍♀️ Let's give ourselves the next few days to sit with it and start organizing, because that's what we've lacked this whole time! We'll start working on what comes next very soon...

But, if you're feeling like doing something right now, signing up for the generalstrikeus.com is easy and fast!

The November episode of Before the Future Came is out! Lucy brings us "In a Mirror, Darkly" Parts 1 and 2, episodes 18 and 19 of Season 4 of Enterprise. Like the 2009 film Star Trek, this double episode explores an alternate history. We talk about compassion, misogyny, dehumanization, censorship, and torture. We also chat about the ongoing story of the mirror universe, biblical references, and these episodes’ special intro sequence.

”Always allow the Steam client to fallback to X11 when SDL_VIDEODRIVER/SDL_VIDERO_DRIVER is set to wayland.”

Does this apply only in X11 session? Does Steam client finally use wayland by default?
