“Billionaire philanthropist” is an oxymoron. A true philanthropist would never amass that much wealth in the first place.

So.. I just realised gravestones are typically placed at the head of the grave, which means when we go to lay flowers we're technically standing on their graves.. 🙈

I shouldn't have to say this, but what a particular version number refers to shouldn't ever change. If you do a bad release, bump the version. Pull the old version if you are particularly concerned...

Attached: 1 image I’m painfully white. But for a white person I have very dark skin. Recently we were having a family conversation about how I *always* get stopped at airport security. My mum said ‘it’s because of the colour of your skin’. The thought had never crossed my mind before, and I honestly don’t think my skin is that dark, I’m firmly on the border between ‘okay’ and ‘not okay’ on the family guy meme. Maybe I’m giving airport security too much credit.

I’m just so impressed at the current state of #linux desktop #gaming , and how much is owed to #steamdeck and the progress it forced on #proton I’m old now, so I don’t get to play many hours anymore, but I’m just amazed how easy it is now. Anything I want to play is not only supported, but plays exactly as good (or better) than it does on windows. Zero issues with playing in HiDPI. Everything plays in 5K with no problems, even stuff released in the last two weeks. Steam UI still needs a workaround for HiDPI, but it’s straightforward enough to add a parameter at launch. Once you’re in a game, there’s no difference. Love it.

anyways it's impossible to steal from billionaires because their wealth isn't theirs. they stole that money by exploiting their workers so everything is fair game

Steam has definitely done more for open software in the last three years than Microsoft done in the last decade. Mainly because it's been focused at people and not increasing enterprise profits.
