For the time being, Proton is good enough for me. I think devs/publishers refusing to enable their chosen anticheat to work with Proton is what is holding things back now for tech people. For other people, there’s even bigger challenges, and I doubt they even read up on these “tech nightmares” so they’re good with just continuing on with Windows.
That’s true, but those days are long behind us. Now, games are released in an unfinished state and require, at the very least, a day-one patch for any hope of a non-buggy experience. It’s sad affairs everywhere in all aspects of the industry.
I remember the physical media PC game days. At the end, the games had horrible copy protection/DRM. I remember not having an internet connection for a while and I went to buy a game that I could play. All the games on the shelf had a notice on the box that said “internet connection required”. Single player games needed to be activated, and if you ran out of activations you either had to contact the company to reset it or you were shit outta luck. I far prefer the combination of Steam and GoG.
Publishers already tried this (EA, Ubisoft, etc) and it didn’t really work. They came back to Steam.
They would still pretend. And, though it would solve a lot of problems, it would remove purpose for so many people.
I work with a guy who suddenly developed this in the middle of a call. I had to help him back to the office, stopping so he could puke a couple times. He was gone for a while and I don’t think he ever got rid of it.
Sorry, I was mainly trying to say, “Good job, it’s impressive!” Your name is close to the name of a famous magician, so I was referring to your code as magic. Bit of a dumb joke.
Maybe simple to Chris Angel and his magic.

That’s a fair point, though I can’t imagine doing any of that kind of work on an ultralight, or whatever this is.
Nvidia graphics, weird. Looks like a Macbook. Also not a huge fan of Gnome, but still good to see them get some support.
And it’s still a brick, lol.
Or it could be like how our competition bureau is being forced to pay $13 million to Rogers Cable for inconveniencing them with an investigation when Rogers Cable decided to buy Shaw Cable. And the deal went through. Can you imagine?
I ran into this too. I had this RP moment where I was going to convert my character to a wizard based on where the conversation was going. I realised what was going on and pulled my character out of the conversation and went with my original idea, getting Withers to convert my character to a wizard. In my mind, that’s how the story went.
I believe Gnome has great support for touchscreens including gestures. I don’t have a touchscreen to test, though.
At the time, I hated using these things. Mac OS 9 would lock up unexpectedly (generally Windows wouldn’t blue screen while simply typing up a document whereas these iMacs would just freeze, requiring you to stick a paperclip into a hole like ejecting a CD drive manually). The keyboard was terrible, mouse was worse and the speakers were only good to play notification dings.
This author of the article has some real rose-tinted glasses.
I feel like the Android client for ProtonMail is really slow. Switching folders is painful.
I also tried sharing calendars with my wife who is still on Gmail and didn’t have great luck there. I decided I’ll just forward invites to events to her, though I haven’t had a chance to test that.
