from PC Gaming (!pcgaming@lemmy.ca)

On his 75th birthday, Apple legend Steve Wozniak pops up in a comment thread about his 'bad decision' to sell his stock in the '80s with a devastatingly zen reply: 'I gave all my Apple wealth away bec

Steve Wozniak has spent the last four decades on philanthropy, public speaking and founding a range of tech companies. Despite decades in the tech business and access to fabulous wealth he by all accounts seems to have remained an almost absurdly chill and normal guy. A few days ago Woz popped into a thread about his ongoing lawsuit against YouTube over internet scammers. 🖋️🤖

3. 📰 Earthworm Jim (direct link) (👍67 👎0)

from MS-DOS gaming (!dosgaming@retrolemmy.com)

Earthworm Jim (E105)

Earthworm Jim (1994, Shiny Entertainment) is the kind of 2D platformer, with its cartoony graphics and smooth animations, that was becoming commonplace on the consoles of the time. As a product of the 90s it's full of bizarre humour, only elevated by its eclectic soundtrack. There's no doubt this game has a great production quality, but is it fun to play? 🖋️🤖

6. 💬 Android emulation in danger? Good for Linux? (direct link) (👍12 👎1)

from SBC Gaming (!sbcgaming@lemmy.ml)

I'm thrilled Android's changes might make Linux the better choice for high-end handhelds. I prefer it ideologically and for ease of use. My only complaint is battery drain, but more focus on Linux could improve sleep functions. 🖍🤖

The Settlers 2 Gold Edition for Amiga

29,90 € – 99,90 €The iconic strategy game is finally coming to the Amiga! In 1993, The Settlers made a major impact on Amiga gaming and created a whole new genre: the city-building strategy game.

With an official license from Ubisoft Entertainment, The Settlers II Gold Edition will be available natively for the Amiga on October 18, 2025. Not as a quick port, but as a lovingly optimized version that shows what the Amiga is really capable of. 🖊️️🤖

from Steam Deck (!steamdeck@lemmy.ml)

Bought Steam Deck OLED to avoid Xbox fees. EA games stopped working, so I dual-booted Windows 10. Now Battlefield 6 beta gives a "Secure Boot not enabled" error. My BIOS is UEFI, TPM is ready, and partition is GPT, but I can't find a Secure Boot option in the BIOS. Is the only way to enable it via this GitHub guide? Any risks or advice? 🖍🤖

A Long and a Short Game from the PS+ Catalogue, August

A Long and a Short Game from the PS+ Catalogue, August olof jonsson 6 min read · Aug 15, 2025 -- Listen ShareEvery month I go through the PlayStation Plus (PS+) catalogue and find for you a long and a short game that I write about. Press enter or click to view image in full sizeThe big one: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, played 20h, finished main storyline. Why you will like this:Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a Jedi power-fantasy, Star Wars fandom service, and a peak cinematic adventure all wrapped into one. What I just mentioned are the big strengths of Jedi Survivor and if those entice you I suggest you go and enjoy the adventure. It’s swing and maybe dodge, maybe hit, maybe flinch, maybe start unblockable attack and ignore everything, or just start hitting back. 🖊️️🤖
