All of them, including Doom 64. I bought Doom (2016) on switch mostly for a laugh but it’s surprisingly playable. Never tried Doom Eternal though.

I had a cat that used to push things off the coffee table. Anything that rolled, like pens or batteries, would eventually find their way under the couch… to the point where I would look there first if I couldn’t find something.

I remember once stacking spare coins into a pile on the table. He sat there, patiently watching me do it and looked me directly in the eye while his paw pushed them onto the floor again.

It was that moment that made me question his motives. Did he enjoy it the way that a toddler enjoys peek-a-boo? Was it about watching things fall or was the fun in knowing that I would have to clean it up again?

The way he looked at my face while he did made it seem like he enjoyed pissing me off more than anything.

I’ve had a lot of success with Toshy a per application keymapper which runs in the background and does all the heavy lifting automatically.

I suspect KDE because most PC gamers are Windows users and KDE is closer to that while Gnome is closer to macOS (both in design and being restrictive).

For what it’s worth, when I moved from macOS to Linux I found that KDE Plasma customisation made it less frustrating to get the appearance and multitouch gestures closer to what I was missing on a Mac.

Definitely recommend customising plasma per the above advice.

I’ve done the same thing with my steam deck (with White Sur theme) and it’s flexible enough to get fairly close.

Until recently I ran a similar setup with latte-dock on my work laptop and but it’s not worth the hassle - it’s buggy and unmaintained, so I swapped back to icon only task manager.

I’d be interested to know if you use any bindings/plugins for Renoise with steamdeck controls.

I use a headless M8 and run https://derkyjadex.github.io/M8WebDisplay/ in Edge (with launch options for game mode). But I didn’t really put in the effort to try and make Renoise work without a keyboard/mouse.

Worcestershire

TIL that aeroplane is commonwealth english.

District 9

An Interstate 76 sequel/remake with modern graphics, physics, controls, etc.

The vehicle combat in Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 gave me a bit of a glimpse of that.

I use Toshy https://github.com/RedBearAK/toshy

There’s some small issues with the alt key behaviour in some applications (and workarounds for that), but other than that it works really well for my OS X configured brain.

I have Tyrian 2000 on GOG as well and was feeling nostalgic. I could replicate the issues and here’s what I did to fix it.

• Installed the game with Heroic and added it (automatically) to Steam.
• Applied a community control layout named “Tyrian” to fix the mapping issue.
• Launched the game from Steam and used the onscreen keyboard to press 3 to go to “Game DOS settings”. I had to run it twice before the controls worked for some reason. Change the music device to “FM Sound” (I think the default was “Midi 330h”) and saved.
• Returned to the launch menu and pressed 1 to launch Tyrian 2000.

I usually like running DOS games in EmuDeck/Retroarch though.

Not sure this is real but it’s the closest I could find to the origin of the image dated April 2nd, 2021.

in much more interesting news, today at work I got to explore an abandoned 500-year-old castle, seized by the state because of the owner’s massive tax evasion

So yes the place is 500yo, but it has been renovated 40 years ago, after being half destroyed during WWII. So it’s got ugly 80s decor vibes. And yes it’s called a château

“At the conclusion of the party, Mrs. Paxson took her daughters home while Mr. Paxson stayed to help clean up after the party. After Mr. Paxson assisted in the party cleanup, he drove his Jeep Gladiator towards his home in Hickory.”

Philip Paxson wasn’t familiar with the area and didn’t know the bridge was collapsed, the lawsuit said. “Google Maps directed Mr. Paxson to travel home over the Snow Creek Bridge. Unbeknownst to Mr. Paxson, a very large section of the Snow Creek Bridge had collapsed in 2013 and was never repaired,” the lawsuit said.

There was no artificial lighting, “and the area was pitch black at 11:00 p.m.,”

Seems pretty simple to me. I have put complete faith in Google maps in poor lighting before and it’s literally never occurred to me that it may direct me over a bridge that doesn’t exist.

Reading this story I decided to boycott everything related to Elon Musk.

Additional veterinary reports show the condition of a female monkey called “Animal 15” during the months leading up to her death in March 2019. Days after her implant surgery, she began to press her head against the floor for no apparent reason; a symptom of pain or infection, the records say. Staff observed that though she was uncomfortable, picking and pulling at her implant until it bled, she would often lie at the foot of her cage and spend time holding hands with her roommate.

Animal 15 began to lose coordination, and staff observed that she would shake uncontrollably when she saw lab workers. Her condition deteriorated for months until the staff finally euthanized her. A necropsy report indicates that she had bleeding in her brain and that the Neuralink implants left parts of her cerebral cortex “focally tattered.”

First game was Safari Race on a Sega SC-3000. After that mainly played PC games when they were a thing and had a 1st gen Gameboy.

I gave up on games and tried to adult through my 20s… but after a bad breakup I bought an Xbox-360 and Skyrim and it’s been a hobby ever since.
