Proton Experimental fixes up Final Fantasy XIII, Dark Souls II and more
Valve has released another upgrade to Proton Experimental for Steam Deck and desktop Linux on July 27th, here's a run over what's new and improved for you.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I would love for a [mouse focus loss on respawn] fix for Overwatch 2, but it's a regression since.. jeez, proton 5.1ish?
I'm surprised this isn't a bigger issue, but I suppose not many people play Overwatch on a steam deck much less on Linux desktop 🫠
Good news is you can still play bug free (besides gradual fps drop) by using an older proton version, so it's not all bad.
Any news on Paladins/EAC on Linux lately? I miss it ever so much~

I wonder whether you'd be interested in following up with a comparision with the RFC for the *Evil Bit*
rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3514
You might already know about it but if not do double check the date after reading 😀
Published 10 years after the clipper chip.
As Google's proposal is effectively a modern analogy of setting a flag to attest that the host or traffic is benign my thoughts did turn to it being an Inverse Evil Bit, and how this approach has been parodied 20 years ago.

Well, it just keeps going around and around and around like some gnat. So yeah, sooner or later you do want to swat the damned thing.
Almost a month ago, the vet told me Happy, at 13.5yrs, was nearing liver failure. It was almost certainly cancer based on her bloodwork.
Here she is today, after many more vet visits, an overnight in the ER & 4 meds. Turns out it was a bacterial infection. She’s recovering & I highly recommend pet insurance.
I’m so grateful for more time with this very good girl. I also know that no matter how many years we’re fortunate to have w our dogs & cats, it’s never going to be enough. #DogsOfMastodon
#Tecnoafecciones Las tecnologías que usamos hoy en día, las relacionadas con internet, nos parecen que son la única manera de construir y vincularnos con la tecnología.
Hay muchos ejemplos que nos demuestran que no es así, sin ser masivos ni populares.
También hay tecnologías diferentes, anteriores, relevantes que quedaron invisibilizadas en el propio concepto de "tecnología".
Sobre esta idea recomendamos el texto de Leo Marx

Sin embargo, podemos elegir la exclusión voluntaria de la conectividad 📡
Recomendamos el texto «Mantenlo análogo: parámetros para una exclusión voluntaria de la conectividad»
➡️ rhizomatica.org/mantenlo-analo…
😊 Hay otras formas de usar y crear tecnología, más allá de aquellas que nos han impuesto. Las tecnologías libres y abiertas son una oportunidad.
