Easily one of my favorite games ever. It's such a good way to relax.

 

EU’s newer members are bristling at the likely appointment of Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte as NATO chief.

 

Under Trump, the White House Medical Unit was “like the Wild West,” and staffers had easy access to powerful stimulants and sedatives, sources say.

Been testing out iced recently. I wish it had a better documentation, but otherwise it's pretty cool.

 

Farmers in France, as in many other countries, wield a lot of political power — for historical and contemporary reasons. Their influence carries certain risks.

I was trying to remember if she was this crazy during her term as the PM, but her term was honestly so short that I can't remember anything other than the lettuce stream from it

I have one SSD which I use as a data drive between both Linux and Windows. I used to run Steam games from it, but there were some small problems sometimes, so nowadays I just use it as a storage.

Generally it works just fine, but sometimes Windows does something weird with it especially when running updates, so that Linux can't mount it. During those times I just have to boot to Windows desktop and then come back to Linux and it usually mounts again. If you totally get rid of Windows, I don't think this will happen to you though.

They are legally separate entities, but why should that affect customers?

Because they are not doing it because of customers, they are more likely doing it for themselves. It's easier to manage things on a corporate level when the data is also separated similarly as their companies are.

My guess is that they just want to separate GOG and their game accounts from each other because they are easier to manage that way. I think in legal sense GOG is still a separate corporate entity even though it's owned by CD Projekt.

 

Hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets in demonstrations against far-right extremism in cities across Germany. Rallies were expected in more than 100 German cities and towns over the weekend.

That's pretty much my worry. I would be fine if they e.g. release their "official" lutris script or something, because at least then I would trust that they might be willing to fix issues if something comes up. But now that they are pretty much saying that they won't support Linux in any way, but you might try these solutions on your own risk, it doesn't really make me want to use them.

Mod Ash mentioned it on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JagexAsh/status/1701861633532792883

Mod Korpz tells me it's built from tech licensed from another company. Inserting Linux support into it is apparently a considerably bigger ask than it sounds :(

I don't have a Steam Deck so I can't really help you with that, but I still find it funny that Jagex somehow decided to make a security improving Jagex Launcher for a multiplatform game, but then the launcher doesn't support Linux and the method they suggest doing is running some random Lutris script from a random github repository which doesn't have any kind of support from Jagex's side. Apparently they can't even get it to Linux because they are using some kind of a licensed tech that doesn't support Linux at all.
