I would never upgrade without doing a backup of my system so I could revert back. I assume you did not do this?

Under Arch it hasn't dropped to Stable yet, so unless you are running the testing branch, you won't have to worry. I think it took 5.27 two weeks or so to get to the stable branch after its "release," so you are probably looking at early to mid March. By then, we should also have Plasma 6.1 drop, ie, updates.

Late Stage Capitalism, Crony Capitalism, pretty much textbook.

Just an update on this, Patch 5 was released and it was a huge update. Once again, even the developers recommend downloading the whole game again with Patch 5 included. To my knowledge, both Fitgirl/DODI are still offering outdated versions. You can get the latest game + Patch5 on 1337z by IGGGAMESCOM, works well for me.

Reddit 2.0...already migrating off this censorship.

You can use LASIM app (Windows/Mac/Linux) to migrate your profile and settings to another instance. Highly recommend.

There is no linux version. Steam/Valve has been updating their proton versions to work with BG3. I would recommend using their 'proton experimental.' If you buy from GOG, you can use Lutris, they have a runner that should install everything needed to run BG3, and it also lists some tweaks to make.

You could go with System76, I think they have a high-end "graphics" laptop, which would be suitable for gaming. Open source company so you are guaranteed everything is compatible with Linux.

However, if money is an issue or you find something else you like, for example the Dell XPS laptops ( in the past have been very compatible with linux,) here is a tool to check the model and/or the parts (important) such as wifi, etc., to see if they are compatible for a lot of laptops.

With the gaming industries increasing prices, piracy is the best way to sample a game, much like the old music stores would allow you to listen to tracks in store before purchasing. No one wants to plop down $70 and get a turd.

Also, we pirates are saving older games the gaming industry no longer want to support or offer. ARRRRRRHH!!!

I get the open source support part of your comment, but you are taking out the fact Steam/Valve has done a lot ...A LOT...to get games working on Steam. Additionally, for the first time every they have driving Linux marketshare higher than MacOS as a result. So, to dismiss them completely is wrong. They have done a lot for linux....and linux gaming.

Steam On Linux Usage Spikes To Nearly 2% In July, Larger Marketshare Than Apple macOS

I need this!

Is there a shittywallpaper community? I would love this.

Your friends lived happily ever after.

I don't trust any of these players, especially Adobe, who has always been king of the proprietary shitlords. If they are forming this "committee" or "alliance," why aren't there any open source players appointed?

The man-child billionaire says he is not for censorship, while using the judicial system to censor.

I can't wait. It has been forever since I played the first two, some of the best old school RPG games. PC gamers gets early release too, oh yeah!

Not blaming them, but at the same time, they are being forced to comply and my pirating ass is having no part of it.

Thanks. I switched to dns.watch after reading this.

Who turned up Google's nazi dial?

For the record, I do believe in extraterrestrial life forms and I do believe they are here and have been for some time. However, this whole dog and pony show and congressional committee is another CIA/Intelligence Community front to control the narrative, think project blue book 2.0. You have a couple of high ranking intelligent agency officials sitting behind the whistle-blowers with big smiles on. James Clapper is one, ex Obama guy and ex DNI (although they are never retired.) Big on the UFO disinformation front. You have the main whistle-blower telling you all this information, but can't give out any data to back up his story...you just have to believe him (and the CIA.) You have to dig deep in the UFO information/disinformation happenings to understand what is going down here.

Dude straight up shit himself. I have seen dogs make that same look. Term limits would fix this.

I assume it is this piece?

Then you are part of the problem.

The Batman scenes were the ONLY thing worth watching in this movie. I will watch it again and fast forward to them only. I will be happy to never see Ezra Miller in a movie ever again. He made my head hurt.

Robert W is so gay!

Who is writing this, A.I.?

Oh there is a cheaper way coming, only the studios, actors and writers are fighting against it. It is call A.I. and it will put movie making in everyone's hands with a little know-how. Users won't need expensive sets/crews/studios/actors/writers....and not to mention, it will trample all over their protective, trademark properties. They know it is coming and it is going to destroy old Hollywood.

I stopped watching The Rational National. He is another one of those fake liberal channels that agrees with a lot of progressive ideals, but then shuffles you into vote Blue NO Matter Who neo-liberal choice everytime. Don't waste your time. He is a shill.

Arch user, btw. Isn't Ubuntu going to an all-Snaps version? If so, shouldn't the polar bear be extra bloated?

I would add the title of 'Most pirated series, but do to the utterly shit ending, also the most regrettable."

Most ovens go up to 500F+, so get an oven steel and place on a lower rack, get a pizza stone and place on the upper rack about 8-12" above. Warm the oven on the highest for about an hour, heat trapped between the steel/stone can get well over 600+. That is enough to make a good pizza for home ovens.

I read that as docking.

You can make it better at home, easily, cheaper.

I have been using VLC on linux and android since forever, but recently on my new Amazon Firestick 4k Max, VLC was having issues playing h.265 HEVC movies. So, someone recommended Nova Player, and it played them beautifully. Nice player, I may switch all my devices to Nova.

🤣 That is competition!

You are not alone. Many love its 'restrained' workflow, and DEs are subjective. It sounds like you are ready to move to KDE. KDE has a 'Overview' that mimics Gnome's, so best of both worlds and the taskbar in KDE is actually functional. Don't waste anymore time, make the switch to day. Operators are standing by. 🤣

KDE user so for my personal files I backup with both Kups and Bups (install both) and you get the choice of cloning type or only changed files with going back in time choices. Integrates into KDE taskbar/system settings.

For redundancy, I back up my main sync folder on the desktop to my laptop using Syncthing over my WiFi/network.

Fake news! Gentoo would still be at the train station loading its cargo for at least a week.

OMG, its like being at the point in your RPG game where you are tasked to retrieve the DRM-free game, but you know the price from the crazed troll is going to be your rogue's head and all your gear, else more violence.

This...all of it! I love the spicy potatoes, crunchwrap, so many choices.

I am using liftoff on arch linux desktop and I could not find anything that allowed me to logoff. I had to go into the hidden files and find the configuration folder and delete it, essentially also wiping out all my preferences.
