Cool idea to revive failed live services as non-bullshit single-pay games. So much work wasted otherwise. Could lead to some fine games :)

We’ll need to wait for the release. Before launch cyberpunk was also getting good reviews ;)

Most people don’t know how to install operating system, even if it’s just pressing next in the installer mostly. The reason Linux is not primary system is that it’s not preinstalled. It has a bit of chicken and egg problem with some support missing due to low user base, and base lowered by that soft missing but that would change in the instant if everybody suddenly bought PC with linux preinstalled.

Even the win mentioned with linux in gaming is basically just that. Linux preinstalled on steam deck.

I’ve switched to watching youtube from my rss feader anyway

I thought this was going to be a screen recording tool. Like sharex. Having cast feature is cool as well though.

Finally created mastodon account following the advice. I was never on twitter so I didn’t know how to start. So Ive started by using hashtags as communities/subreddits for the start and then I’ll follow people I find this way.

What enables me to use them is probably that this is very much true for the whole industry so software is built with that in mind.

For example, we use special “print” statements for some of the errors that if a debugger is running, it will automatically stop the program so you can investigate. Without a debugger, it will just output the error in the log.

There is no docker, the app is running usually on your local hardware. Consoles are also built with debugger support that you connect to from your PC. So it’s very easy to use. Even connecting to another PC in a local network, for example, an artist or tester hardware, is possible from your computer without a problem. We have all the tools prepared for that.

This usually depends on which industry you work in, and what language you’re using usually :)

I work in gamedev, c++, and I ALWAYS use a debugger. There’s no running the game, or even the editor without the debugger connected. No matter if you need it currently or not. You always launch the project through the debugger so if anything comes up you can investigate immediately.

Profiler is used any time there’s a performance problem.

I’ll add to the minority that likes those changes. I don’t use the desktop version that often and was pleasantly surprised :D I like having the library on the side. Especially that I do have quite a wide screen.
