As a consumer, Valve gives me greater value than Epic. Its just simple as that.

How many contributions to RADV, ACO, Proton?

These are the Vulkan specifications: https://registry.khronos.org/vulkan/specs/latest/html/vkspec.html

Search “valve” on this page and count the number of results, then search “epic” and compare.

I’ll respect Tim more if he supports and contributes to Linux.

Like seriously what do you care? Why does it matter to you how much cut Steam or Epic take?

Personally I just don’t give a shit. I am supporting Linux gaming development, that’s all I care about.

If Larian has no problem, why do you?

What exactly is the problem with the launcher? It works fine.

TBH, I would take their stuff even if I get it for free.

China

Perhaps they should indicate that.

They already are

High BPM music

That would explain my interest in Technical Death Metal music.

It literally says that in the screenshot

Lovecraft’s story The Doom That Came To Sarnath is about events that occurred in a fictional city. There are no singular characters and it reads like something written by a historian.

So such stories are not always bad.

Can you give some examples of how you outline?

I do write small writing prompts on my phone whenever I get an idea. I just need to go and pick them up sometime :P

My problem with writing is that sometimes I just hover over a single sentence and sometimes I just ramble on a couple of paragraphs then re-read it to see that what I wrote was overtly detailed (just like how I tend to overexplain things when talking).

I guess its a start, but I like your idea of timeboxing the writing activity.

I was dabbling in local llms recently using Ollama to generate stories from prompts. It’s fine but not something I’d consider something original like how I’d write.

But I guess it’s better than nothing if I get stuck.

I already knew F-droid. Also it’s always been available on Android, albeit in a roundabout way.

What’s there for iOS?

Where can I get a list of such app stores?

For work or personal use?

If its for work then consider having two machines, using windows for the work machine and Linux for the personal one.

Jodorowsky you mean?
