  • I see. I would suggest looking up other environment variables the Steam Deck sets on boot, but since this doesn't look to be the case, my second suggestion would be hardware spoofing.

    But even then, it just doesn't make any sense. Why support only the Steam Deck specifically when it's well known that Valve is updating SteamOS to make it work with other handheld devices like the Legion Go? Assuming they put some kind of hardware checking in the game initialization phase, why go through all this effort just to lose potential players?

  • Might be unrelated, but Marvel Rivals has a similar problem. If you just download it and play straight away, it won't open; you have to set an initialization flag SteamDeck=1 to make it open (source)

    Maybe it's the same situation and this flag solves the problem, or maybe it's something similar

  • He'll probably go to jail, since there's a ton of evidence against him and his cronies, and most of right-leaning here won't pick a fight with our supreme court just to bail him out.

    The real problem is: he won't really pay for his crimes in jail. Because he's a retired army captain, he'll go to a military prison, just like Braga Netto (his ex minister), and while in there he'll have access to cable TV, expensive wine and cigars, and whatnot. For context, our prisoners have a miserable life here: expired food, overpopulated cells and threats from organized crime leaders. Bolsonaro wouldn't last a single day in a common prison here, but because of his age and military rank, there's no scenario where this happens.

    The only one who can make him pay is the devil himself, and I really hope he pays Bolsonaro a visit soon enough

  • I was talking about Westworld, an HBO show about AI, androids and "humanity". And yes, I know the original quote is from Romeo and Juliet, but quoting Dolores fits perfectly given the context

  • Yeah, it's easily one of my favorites, even though I've never finished it. I was deep into the third season, then I googled something about the show and discovered the last season got cancelled. I thought it was pointless to continue, since one entire season is a gap too big to fill with theories.

    Just another brick in the wall of cancelled masterpieces, just like the TF2 Webcomic.

  • I tested this today with a friend, and apparently it doesn't need to be a video call, just a regular voice call is enough to do screen share.

    I didn't test with a group call though, so I can't tell if it only works with two people.

  • Linux Mint é a opção padrão para novos usuários, como os camaradas já ressaltaram.

    Recomendaria também o ZorinOS, que tem uma interface padrão bem familiar ao Windows e já vem bem completinho; além de que tem a versão lite (se não descontinuaram, não sei informar se ainda distribuem), que roda bem em máquinas antigas.

    E por último, recomendaria Pop!_OS, ele tem uma versão que já vêm com os drivers da NVIDIA pré-instalados e tem a Pop Shop, pra caso queria baixar programas sem usar o terminal. Ele usa GNOME, uma interface totalmente diferente do Windows, o que pode dificultar um pouco a transição, mas fora isso, acho uma boa por evitar a dor de cabeça com os drivers de placa de vídeo logo de cara.

  • Seria muito bom, mas infelizmente não acho que dá pra criar expectativas. Depois de tanta conciliação e concessão pra milico, agro e igreja evangélica, tudo em nome da "governabilidade", acho difícil comprarem uma briga desse nível.

  • "Parabéns para a AmeriKKKa, entregou sistemas críticos na mão do deus mercado e agora virou mais um refém dele KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK"

    Agora falando sério: era meio previsível que isso podia acontecer caso o governo deixasse tudo nas mãos de uma empresa gigantesca como a Microsoft; a empresa nunca vai assinar um contrato que garanta acesso gratuito a um recurso lucrativo que ela oferece, independente de quem é o cliente. Segundo o próprio artigo, a Microsoft faturou US$ 20 bilhões somente provendo serviços de segurança pra agências federais, como diabos o governo americano espera que ela ofereça os logs "na faixa" se o faturamento está bombando com essas parcerias?

    Fora a péssima decisão de permitir que controlem 80% dos sistemas operacionais usados pelas agências. Quer dizer que se alguém achar uma vulnerabilidade critica no Windows, essa pessoa pode possivelmente comprometer comunicações sigilosas; ter acesso a arquivos ou informações de alto valor; ou em última instância, adquirir credenciais de alto nível e ser capaz de comprometer os outros 20% dos sistemas? Imagina o tamanho da merda que ia dar se isso acontecesse.

    Se bem que tamo falando do governo americano, todo castigo é pouco pra essa corja racista

  • Projects leaching on the work of companies like that, "freeing the code".

    You mean it the other way, right? Because these companies you defend use the free labor of voluntary developers from the community, which spend hours and hours developing features, fixing bugs and what not, directly or indirectly. That's how open source works.

    When these companies change the project license to a closed source one, they're basically saying a big "f*** you" to the community. Forking the latest open source version of the repository is nothing more than an effort to keep things the way they were.

    huge companies will not pay a cent for Linux in the future

    Linux is FOSS, you can do whatever you want with it as long as you redistribute it without modifying the license. Android does that; every GNU/Linux distribution does that. That's how it works.

    if a license says "you can use it for free, but need to share profits over x$"

    What you're describing is "freeware", what this post is discussing is " open source software". There's a giant gap between the two.

  • I think they mean EA Anti-Cheat, not Easy Anti-Cheat. The former, which is used in 2042, does not run under linux (and probably never will).

    BFV runs out-of-the-box on linux systems and has a "Gold" rating on ProtonDB. If EA really goes on with this, BFV will become unplayable, just like 2042.

  • Well, as a Linux user myself, I used to do this kind of thing when I was getting started and was too damn hyped about FOSS and everything. Now, I simply ask people what they want from a computer and how much are they invested into tech.

    Do you want things to be as simple as possible? Use Mac or Windows.

    Do you want to learn more about how things work under the hood? Use Linux.

    Gaming? Use Windows (and yes, although I'm a proud Proton user, some games just won't work, like Valorant and PUBG).

  • Did he? I don't remember him saying "I've lost, it's alright guys" to his supporters. He've been saying there was a fraud in 2018 (which he fucking WON) and 2022 elections; he never came in public and said "Hey guys, could you please stop blocking roads, stop making protests all over Brazil and stop asking for a coup in front of the army barracks?".

    After he lost, he simply vanished for almost a month, and neither the Federal Police nor the army under his command did something to stop the protests. In fact, an army general came in public and said to Bolsonaro supporters: "Don't lose faith" - even though they were causing chaos all over the country.

    At last, we had Jan 8, which is equivalent to USA's Capitol riot. Bolsonaro supporters invaded the congress, the presidential palace and the supreme court, and trashed the places (fortunately, no one was working there this day). All of these things wouldn't happen if Bolsonaro came in public and accepted his defeat.

    Steam/Proton games won't start after fresh install

    Hey everyone. I've been playing on Linux using proton for a while and stumbled across this scenario: you click "play" and the game won't start, it doesn't even bring up the "compiling vulkan shaders" card sometimes. This post is about a fix I've been using and wanted to share.

    Use a process analyser (I use htop) to search for a process with the word "DIRECTX" or "DXSETUP". This process should run right after you install the game and click to play for the first time, as a post-install script. In my experience, this process usually hangs and stops the game starting sequence. Since I know my Proton setup already have DirectX updated, I kill this process (using signal 9 - SIGKILL) and the game starts booting normally.

    I'm currently using GE-Proton8-14 and Pop!_OS 22.04

    How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?

    Well, everybody born in the american continent is technically "american" too, including Central and South America. Is there a specific term in english for these people?

    Edit: Thanks for all your answers, especially the wholesome ones and those patient enough to explain it thoroughly. Since we (South Americans) and you (North Americans) use different models/conventions of continent boundaries, it makes sense for you to go by "Americans", while it doesn't for us.

    Opinions on radicle

    I've recently discovered Radicle, which is a P2P code hosting platform, and I liked its concepts a lot. Any of you guys heard of or used it?
