Even Microsoft doesn’t seem to be actively preventing their games from running on Linux. Fuck Sweeney.

Learning that companies are doing this so you can’t install competitor’s games
Wait, wat? I hadn’t heard this explanation. I cynically thought it before, but I’ve never seen it suggested by anyone other than me.
Saskatchewan too, 28 October.
Looks like what happens when a house hippo grows up.
Yup, I was friends with his older brother. Both of them were/are a bit weird, didn’t think much of either of them academically until grade 12. Then their math & and computer genious came out. Had a few university classes with them, the older brother has better social skills, but Lee is more creative IMHO.
Upshot is I played Capsized in 2009, so that was neat.
I need to try out Xonotic. I went to high school with the guy who started the original game, who runs Alientrap now.
I’ve been meaning to try the original Crysis now that I have a computer that can play it. I started it, but then life happened.
DOOM Eternal didn’t do it for me. It’s Doom-ish, but not enough. It’d be a better game if it wasn’t set in the Doom universe trying to add a bunch of non-Doom elements to the game. Doom (2016) did that too, but not to the same extent. I like the older Dooms mostly for their simplicity: get gun, see bad guy, shoot gun. Pick up health. Repeat. Doom Eternal did that, but added a story, weapon mods, and skills. Fine mechanics, but not Doom enough for me.
I’m probably not the best person to ask. I’ve never lived in Regina, but from visiting it’s similar to Saskatoon, except it has a man-made lake instead of a nice river valley. It’s a nice enough city, but it’s also clearly a government town. As for London, I’ve never been. I have family there, and part of my family moved to Saskatchewan from London over 100 years ago.
I would have, but my first minimum wage-type job was after high school. I didn’t make enough to pay into CPP, but I don’t know if that’s a universal truth for younger workers or just because I didn’t work more than 10 hours a week.
Also fun fact, going back go my original comment about wage: Saskatchewan’s October increase to its general minimum wage won’t catch up to Ontario’s current student wage. Things are cheaper here, yes, but things aren’t (much if any) cheaper in Saskatoon or Regina than in London.
Since this post is about Saskatchewan, I’ll add that Saskatchewan doesn’t have a student wage, just one minimum wage.
It also happens to be about $1.20 less than Ontario’s student wage. I like my province, but man does it have its issues.
Yup, all true, but even then Saskatchewan largely voted PC federally. Very strange political mix.
No, Saskatchewan also doesn’t exist. We get very little from the feds, for two reasons:
When good things happen it’s because of a unicorn like Ralph Goodale. The NDP could have a fighting chance for a few seats here, but they need to actually campaign and realise that they’re #2 in nearly every riding in the province.
The ADL confirms, your comment is anti-semitic.
There’s a fairly inactive community for Saskatoon: [email protected]
Hopefully putting it here gets it more visibility.
Edit: Since we don’t really hate each other, even if we pretend to, I’ll also point out Regina’s community: [email protected]
Need more context: Are you also 15? If so then this might be acceptable anywhere.
But… how’d you think the got made? Had you never had a decent one at a restaurant?
Vista >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 11.
Not really. Modern games will claim to be free to play, with many parts of the game hidden behind microtransactions, or they’ll be paid with the option to buy more.
Doom never claimed to be free to play. It was always 100% up front that the shareware version wasn’t much more than a playable demo. The paid version of Doom was the complete game.
Yup. Trans or not a girl should be allowed to wear a suit or a dress. So should a boy. As long as it qualifies as “formal” for either group it ought to qualify for the other.
Oh, yeah, Valve and Proton are to thank. I’m just saying Microsoft’s not blocking Proton like Epic and a few others seem to be. I can appreciate the stance of “We won’t help you, but we won’t stop you either. Good luck” that I think MS is taking with this.
