My Steam Deck convinced me to try Linux (Debian) a try for desktop gaming. So long as you install the latest GPU drivers, it's smooth as butter. I guess what I'm saying is Linux for everything at this point... for those capable of installing drivers from the CLI.

If Denuvo has no negative impact on sales, what's the need for their recent PR campaign to "rehabilitate their image"? https://feddit.nl/post/22918778

Denuvo is a deal-breaker for me.

And I can refund the game if I don't like it. And I can see reviews of the game by those who have been vetted as having bought it.

Steam Deck support?

Don't forget you can ignore publishers.

Ignore 2k

https://steamcommunity.com/groups/DenuvoGames/curation is also useful.

If the camera really does need to be that thick for lens reasons, couldn't we at least make the rest of the body bigger with more battery?

Just hold off for now. They might take your money, shut it down, and mandate that you buy "Industrial Annihilation: Titans" for an extra $15.

Its the same "power corrupts" story again and again. Karina Gould gave an impassioned speech on electoral reform (http://www.ourcommons.ca/DocumentViewer/en/42-1/house/sitting-64/hansard#Int-8963139). But after replacing Maryam Monsef as Minister of Democratic Institutions, her views suddenly became far more simplistic. In a 2017 interview on CBC's Metro Morning, she was asked "Why is it important that people at the very least believe every vote counts?". She replies "Because they do. … We literally count them: 1, 2, 3, 4, up to the majority that wins."

In addition, theatres advertise a starting time of X:00, but the movie can sometimes start as late as X:30 after 30 fucking minutes of ads and trailers. That was my previous and last experience in a theatre.

If only https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Paramount_Pictures,_Inc. was expanded to streaming services instead of repealed.
