  • pillars of eternity, great game so far, did not play a realtime-with-pause rpg since kotor, but thanks to the auto-pause settings this plays really well. And while i can’t claim to understand whats going on right now, the world seems to be really fleshed out and combats so far where very fun.

    brotato, fun take on the vampires survivor formular.

    backpack battles, an autobattler, but players don’t draft from a shared pool, so you’ll mostly draft the same builds everytime and don’t care much about the builds you are dacing. not somerhing i’ll continue playing, but it was ok to waste a bit of time, would probably be cool on mobile.

    doom2, but i am allways playing doom, so i guess that does not count.


  • It was written as part of my work.

    check your contract, you might not own the code and your organization may have a process to determine how to license something.

    to your other questions (IANAL)

    1. prior work wont be licensed, meaning no one but the owner of the work is allowed to do anything with versions prior to the license
    2. you don’t have to, but i can’t see a reason why you should not.
    3. GPL might mean that other work depending on gpl licensed code has to be licensed in a gpl compatible way, depending on how exactly you depend on it and how you distribute your dependencies. MIT/BSD is easier here, if you don’t plan to license everything with the GPL anyway.






  • apex legends works. the finals does not, because of their anti-cheat solution.

    for multi-player fps games remember that you’ll play against pc players, they’ll have keyboard and mouse and you won’t have assistance features you might be used to from console fps. Experiment with gyro controls, the touchpads and/or “flick stick” you’ll might find a way to get similar speed and accuracy as a mouse user, but i’d guess you are in for an uphill battle.

    have a look at the control schemes provided by the community for games, if you don’t like the default controls.

    my competitive fps days are in the past, but i can recommend some single player fps i enjoyed on the deck:

    • Doom (2016)
    • Black Mesa, the half-life 1 remake.
    • Amid Evil
    • Boltgun
    • Borderlands 2

    e: www.protondb.com to check how various games work on the deck. some games are not “verified” by valve because they only show xbox button prompts, or some “unplayable” games run perfectly fine with a specific launch options





  • This is why i listen to audiobooks or radio plays to fall asleep to.

    They are engaging enough to stop the noise but i can still fall asleep listening.

    Works good for me, atleast most of the time*.

    *Damn you Will Patton for reading Stephen King novells in such a gripping way, you are banned from bedtime listening!




  • Most clients are web browsers and support for torrents in http is the same as for every other file.

    So that would only give us a use for torrents as a form of content distribution plattform to get the actual files closer to the client.

    In cases where we have actual non browser clients: i like to curate what i am distributing and don’t want to distribute anything i happen stumble upon or would you be willing to store and more importantly share everything you find on 4chan or that might show up in your mastodon feed?
