That’ll certainly make it easier to pay the CEO.

lol, “X”. Get fucked.

Symlink each individual file, obviously.

Amazing, I needed something like that a few months ago (and will need again in future).

The French do not fuck around when it comes to strike action. Hang those execs out to dry.

This takes me back to How to Kill a Brand in the PS3 era: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfmBzllkbUM

I played through it on my Xbox One X some years ago and had fun with it. It didn’t run at 60 fps, but 2160p30 was a very cinematic experience regardless.

Edit - here’s a screenshot:

I got excited and then I saw the new art style. I’m afraid I prefer the original art style - glorious isometric loveliness. The new one would be fine if the old one wasn’t so gorgeous.

It’s still doing better than Krita - which I had to bail on because its levels tool doesn’t support setting the white point.

I’ve been finishing off Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey on my Xbox One X. I mostly enjoyed it but many of the RPG mechanics were quite tiresome. I hear Valhalla is even longer, which doesn’t bode well. Odyssey was already hitting the upper limit for me and the mechanics were starting to grow stale.

Still, the world was fairly pretty and it had a surprising amount of comedy in it. The fighting mechanics were mostly fun, although the lack of hidden blades and stupid auto-leveling content rather worked against the demi-god power fantasy.

I should probably get my Steam Deck RMA’d so I can play something else, but that requires more mental effort than I can handle right now.

Is there a version of this that wasn’t awkwardly resized?

Is it going to be the size of a small fridge like the base model?

Oh yeah, they made a third one, didn’t they?

Interesting. That makes sense. Thanks for explaining. It doesn’t appeal to me but I can certainly relate to the frustration of changes breaking established workflow.

I’ve got an Xbox One X and there’s just not been anything on current gen platforms that excites me. Lots of live service games that are of zero interest to me, coupled with subscriptions that end up imposing FoMo.

I’m curious about this as well - without the background stuff it feels kinda abstract and lifeless to me.

Who says that?! I’ll kill them with my power!

That’s what I’m getting at. It’s not that I have no interest, I do, but if it’s too inconvenient it’s a bad fit for me. Much like I don’t make my own shoes, I suppose. If I had infinite time then, sure, but realistically the opportunity cost is too high.

Vulnerabilities found in packages? The maintainers aren’t omniscient.

I think you might be interpreting my comment a little too literally. Perhaps I could instead word it as “I don’t know what the appeal is - to me it doesn’t seem anything other than an oddly archaic OS”. What’s its USP, so to speak?

I had something similar when I tried running SUSE in about 2005. Shortly after I discovered Ubuntu and found that it made package management and maintenance easy and from there I was able to start using the system to get things done. Whilst I don’t currently use Linux on my personal machine, I do use it on my work machine inside WSL2, on servers at work and at home.

I’ve never even entertained the notion that Slackware would be something I might use - because it seems clunky for the sake of clunk. Am I missing something here? Or is the clunk the appeal, like how lots of people like really awful B-movies?
