The suckers who buy this trash and pay for it deserve it. There’s so much good gaming to be had, at this point it’s a choice.

- Comment on Elon Musk Is Rolling xAI Into SpaceX—Creating the World’s Most Valuable Private Company 1 month ago:
Financial trickery is what this is. Rolling one failing business into the next, Tesla will follow soon. It’s incredible that this is even legal, but of course nothing matters anymore in Trump’s America.

The thing is, I’d have given it a chance if I could play it on Linux. But alas, I can only watch from the sidelines.
- Comment on Tesla: 2024 was bad, 2025 was worse as profit falls 46 percent 1 month ago:
And yet, the stock barely reacted. It’s really a gamble on Elon’s ability to keep the scam going and growing at this point. Wouldn’t recommend for investors, would recommend for idiots.

- Comment on IO Interactive have fixed the crazy PC specifications for 007 First Light 1 month ago:
I watched the gameplay video and it was just so, so meh. I see what they were going for, but it just falls flat on so many levels. Ironically for a Bond game, it lacks style. There was such a lack of consistency, of thought, it’s like they fed various better games to an AI and this is the result. It’s all over the place.

Since the rise of proton gaming is now absolutely viable on Linux as well. The exclusives use cases for Windows are disappearing fast.

Thanks for clarification!
- Comment on GOG is Getting Acquired By Its Original Co- Founder: What It Means For You 2 months ago:
This is… a thing? I really can’t tell whether this is a step towards stability or volatility for GOG. I love the mission, I love having an alternative to stream, but it needs to last. It’s GOG financially viable? Good question, no one really knows.

- Comment on Explained: Why you can't move Windows 11 taskbar like Windows 10, according to Microsoft 2 months ago:
The inability to move the taskbar to the top was literally one of my main reasons to switch to Linux. Good work, MS product manager.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 3 months ago:
That’s literally how it works. If you run a store selling/licensing media you get to decide what’s on the shelves and what isn’t.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 3 months ago:
It is available on other, quite popular, stores. GOG and itch.io are household names in PC gaming.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 3 months ago:
I haven’t heard about the details, what’s your source on that?
As far as I recall, the developer said he didn’t know the actual reason for the ban.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 3 months ago:
Valve is pretty upfront about being a business first and foremost. Their customers are loyal because they consistently provide high value at reasonable prices, even though they are in a dominating position in the market. They’ve taken unpopular decisions in the past, but never any that seriously alienated a meaningful chunk of their customer base.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 3 months ago:
Based solely off the trailer I can see how a big American storefront would err on the side of caution here. There is very little to gain from carrying a game decidedly built with controversy in mind, but a lot to loose.
With the publicity around it and sales still possible through alternative stores maybe things will turn out alright for the developer in the end. “Banned” media is always in demand, after all.
