  • so many questions. what patents? how should they know you use it?

  • What's the best advice you've ever received?
  • imho the 2nd and 3rd contradict each other a bitt possibly

  • How do you handle your passwords?
  • keepassxc database synced with syncthing across devices

  • Riot Games talk Vanguard anti-cheat for League of Legends and why it's a no for Linux
    1. this plays in their favor
    2. clicking install in lutris rather than just downloading is not much more effort for the end user. Beit supported or not, a rather tech savvy group such as linux users can handle that obstacle and thus the numbers will not change drastically (just my asdumption)
  • Riot Games talk Vanguard anti-cheat for League of Legends and why it's a no for Linux
  • Yes, and exactly that is reflected in the player numbers... By your and many others' choice. They couldn't care less about the reason.

    I'm just saying that announcing their move ahead of time affects player numbers and they probably reported the player numbers after that announcement.

  • Riot Games talk Vanguard anti-cheat for League of Legends and why it's a no for Linux
  • Well if you and assumingly many others decided to quit the game for good after that announcement, the number might be cherry picked, but not misleading as you said yourself that you are not going to play anymore.

    In that case they also get what they want - solely Windows players.

  • Riot Games talk Vanguard anti-cheat for League of Legends and why it's a no for Linux
  • I get your point, but that is only 50% of the article. 800 players simply don't justify the effort of porting everything to Linux and risk more cheaters. Issues with cheaters affect the entire playerbase, not just those 800.

    I'd like more Linux compatibility in large games as much as the next guy, but I get the justification not to do it.

  • SteamOS as your daily driver?
  • never understood why steamos made sense aside from a steamdeck... just start steam in autostart and enable big picture

  • LAN party in the 1970s
  • what tool did you all use for creating those pictures?

  • What a feeling that was
  • But you get obese if you make yourself a sandwich every time the game crashes, because only buggy messes get released nowadays...

  • Why are UFOs only seen in the US?
  • its the american dream!

  • you are a coworker and have a conflict with another coworker who accuses you of being lazy, even though you started to work earlier than him. Is it your job to solve this problem?
  • is he your superior? that is the only thing that would require you to talk to your manager. depending on the firm culture and your ego i'd consider this: you are the new one. there are minds to make up abput you. if you go and tell them about the situation, your are the one ratting others out and playing right into his hands (by ratting him out you show yourself not being a team player and - depending on management views - maybe even high maintenance). if he talks about you, he is probably already known to make quick assumptions and not shut up about those. by not telling on him, on the other hand, you show that you provide value independent of others and are not easily influenced.

    try to talk to the others (carefully) why he acts that way and how they deal with it. it is normal to ask questions. you are the new joiner and just want to get to know the firm culture.

    sorry for typos (typed on phone)

    Take care not to click on reddit urls!

    I know it is familiar, and due to the heavy discussion in the recent days, it is especially hard to circumvent, but please take a look at the links you click on to prevent giving traffic to Reddit as much as possible. Just a small reminder!
