Do you really need a guide? It works exactly the same as Windows. The only difference is you need to run it through WINE with Proton. That’s easiest handled with Heroic Launcher or Lutris, which you’re probably already using one of these already. Just add the executable and launch it. (You may need to run an installer first, which Heroic at least makes really easy.)
People talk about playing CoD. They don’t discuss the game really, and also this is being discussed because it’s news, and also because they’re being greedy and stupid. Again, it isn’t the game being discussed.
BG3 people talk about the story, the writing, the gameplay, etc. They talk about how the game is something actually made for players, to be enjoyed, not by business people to make money. They talk about the game.
I would absolutely disagree. Fun, maybe. Mindless fun? No. I’m fine with games that are mindless fun, but it isn’t what all games should strive for. I personally much prefer games that require your focus and consideration.
Mindless fun is cheap and easy. Making a game that sits in people minds for years is difficult and takes effort, but is much more rewarding. BG3, for example, is anything but mindless, which is why it’s been able to still be in conversations for so long after it released. How much do people talk about Call of Duty, even though it sells like crazy?
My understanding is that it potentially isn’t illegal, because you weren’t being paid to vote explicitly, and weren’t being paid to vote for a specific candidate for sure, but you were (supposed to be) paid to sign an agreement that you would vote, and I think it also said you support a certain candidate but I’m not totally sure on that.
Basically, he was paying for people to say they’d vote (maybe for a certain candidate) but legally that wasn’t actually required, so possibly barely skirts the law if a judge is being very generous to him.
Based on what you’ve said I doubt you do it much at all
I’m an eagle scout. I’ve done a fair amount of hiking/backpacking/etc.
lol. No bro they decorated it with colourful objects
Who are you talking about? Native people or these modern people? Both of the have, although the modern people removed theirs when they were done. I don’t have an issue with native people decorating rocks though.
I don’t know if there’s even anything to get back. Is it that 3 was bad or is it just that Borderlands doesn’t interest us anymore? I honestly don’t know, but I think it’s at least partially the latter for me. I’ve played much better games since, and I don’t really find that formula appealing anymore. Almost everything it created has been used to make better products since, so is there even a reason to care about them anymore?
I do it for fun. It’s a “white person thing” if hanging a flag is.
I this way, yes, it is. Yes, native people also probably climbed it, but it was spiritually significant, not for Instagram pictures or whatever.
Yeah, I didn’t mean fair as in equitable or reasonable. I meant it as in moderately, as in there is some regulation.
Thanks.
I didn’t say they weren’t fairly regulated. In fact, being purchased illegally implies they’re regulated to some extent. Again though, you can illegally purchase them, obviously. Black markets exist, which means you can purchase things that are illegal to purchase.
Climbing it for fun is also “white people behavior.” You can’t really use an argument like that without considering what the base level of climbing it at all also means. This is an argument in made in bad faith. Either climbing it for fun is already a violation of it being sacred, in which case how is this any worse, or it isn’t, in which case how is this any worse?
Do you think people just get drugs or illegal guns or whatever as gifts?
I can purchase a lot of stuff that’s illegal to buy.
Being able to purchase something doesn’t mean it’s legal.
Honestly, in my opinion, there’s too many games to justify buying it at all. I enjoyed one and two when I was a kid, and there wasn’t competition for the genre. Three I think was free on Epic or something, so I played and it was fine, but not great. I don’t expect much from four, and there’s companies I’d actually like to support instead.
I don’t speak German.
All sources of power cause some amount of harm. Is it comparing it to other sources? Coal power plants throw radioactive waste into the air. Is it worse than that? I doubt it.
Name (like write out the word) a new plant that isn’t safe.
Every power source has issues. Installing solar panels onto houses is more dangerous than nuclear. Large scale solar is safer, though not significantly, and thar includes all nuclear disasters of the past, and it also doesn’t include waste that we’ll have to deal with in the future like we’re already doing with nuclear.
The largest cost of nuclear power is safety. Both reactor & waste.
But, like you said above, it’s actually one of the safest sources, even if you include disasters, which are very unlikely now that the technology is so much more mature. Unlike other power sources, their waste is easily accounted for and stored too, and in small quantities. Some of it can even be useful.
Unfortunately, due to how global energy markets work, the profit has become unreliable (ironically in part due to solar/wind) and large nuclear plants are generally considered an economic loss.
This is largely due to regulations specifically designed to increase their costs above dirty energy sources. Those with money will always create barriers for competition, and that’s what dirty energy companies have done. There’s so many requirements for nuclear plants that other energy sources aren’t held back by. Coal can just spew radioactive waste into the air for free, and nuclear has to pay for the safe storage of their waste. Why? Waste for all energy should be paid for by those generating it so they have an incentive to reduce it and it makes all sources equal.
It doesn’t need to take that long. The reason it sometimes does is almost always because laws are payed for by dirty energy companies to make it harder to build them. They manufacture barriers and discontent around nuclear to protect themselves, even though they release far more radioactive waste, and don’t even have to capture and control it.
If they want to get serious about nuclear power, they could get it done in 5 years. If they just want a small plant then it could be a fraction of that even.
Saying “do you want to play CoD tonight” is different than discussing why the gameplay of CoD is good/new/innovative/whatever.
I actually did see people discuss the campaign of the new CoD (or maybe the one before) because it was actually fairly unique for them. Other than that, the only time I hear about CoD is people talking about how much money it makes, how bad the skins are, or things like that. It holds almost no relevance in game discussion circles because everything they did well has been innovated on since then.
People talked about how smooth and responsive CoD 4 was, because it was innovating. People don’t talk about the mechanics of whatever the latest CoD is, because it’s not doing anything worth copying.
