I haven’t read the article, probably won’t, doesn’t really interest me. But I thought the title pretty clearly implies you don’t play as the shooter. I’m surprised others didn’t interpret the same way.

It’s especially useful if you find a window is stuck off screen after disconnecting a monitor.

can’t recall if it’s out of the box or if I configured that

That’s out of the box. No configuration necessary. The default behaviour in Plasma when pressing the Windows key is to open the application menu where you can start typing to find what you want. In fact it’s kind of a pain to disable that, and will sometimes re-enable itself randomly as I recently found out (I prefer WIN+D to open the app menu from my i3 days, and I work in an RDP connection to a windows machine where I would prefer to be able to just press WIN to open that menu and not KDEs menu.)

What’s worse is that YouTube sometimes doesn’t do that, i.e. when you hit back it shows the same list from the cache or something. It gives you hope and makes it worse on those occasions when it does fully refresh on back.

I can’t really explain it. I was as surprised as anyone when I realized I can’t remember the last time I saw a mosquito.

It’s Calgary, Canada. The climate is fairly arid, but there are definitely mosquitos in the area. I just haven’t seen one in a long time, despite being outside for at least a couple of hours every day.

I suspect if I walked along the river more I’d see some though.

I really only know of this word because of Scott Manley

They exist here. I just live inner city and never see them.

I can’t actually remember the last time I even saw a mosquito.

It’s the same story in US and Canada. Illegal, but not really enforced. And when it is enforced the the penalties aren’t strong enough to be a deterrent.

It’s against FTC regulations in the US too. The trick is getting them to enforce it.

I’ve never heard of that type of action occurring anywhere else.

There were a couple of high profile cases in Canada a while back.

• David Milgaard
• Steven Truscott

As long as it continues to be sold on store shelves, it’s modern enough to count.

I can’t see the name Crash and not think of the 1996 movie with James Spader. Which is weird as fuck.

All the way through your comment I was thinking, you should try Slay the Spire, but you beat me to it. Another one you might consider is Star Traders: Frontiers I don’t think it has any microtransactions (it’s also on Steam)

My bet, A youtuber discovered the game and made videos that did reasonably well in the indie audience, then other youtubers picked up and it snowballed some. I’ve been seeing more coverage of the game on youtube for a couple of years now.

That game’s closer to 20+ years old. It’s been a very long time since I’ve played it. It was way back when gaming on Linux was mostly limited to games that had a native Linux release.

I haven’t tried these so I cannot comment on their quality. But this has a list. Of particular note is RetroArch, OpenEMU, and Gens as three FOSS options.

Edit: Also, alternativeto.net is usually a decent source for finding alternatives for specific software. Here’s the list for Kega Fusion alternatives. This has some more options than the other link I provided.

The tooltip for fedipact says: “Agreed to block all communications (their blocklist is private)”

To me that says, they’ve agreed but it’s not confirmed that they’ve gone through with it because the blocklist is private. Blocked on the other hand says “All communications are blocked”

I quite enjoyed the dungeon keeper games back in the day

IIRC Exanima itself was never meant to be the full open world RPG. It was always intended to be a smaller game to perfect some of the game mechanics for their ultimate goal of building that open world RPG. I have no idea if they still plan to build that other game or if they are working on it in parallel or have ditched it entirely.

Edit: The community seems to believe that the devs are still planning to make Sui Generis at any rate. Exanima has been in EA for 10 years or so now, and based on what I’m seeing online they are almost at their 1.0 release version, at which point they will divert their attention to to Sui Generis. Take with a pinch of salt, as this information comes from the r/exanima community on reddit.
