The Lounge 0001 [From the Beginning]

There’s a cool event going on in carball.

They’ve added a game mode temporarily which emulates Super Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars (the game that was evolved into Rocket League). And it’s a lot of fun. The differences are a couple boost pads have been moved, the ball is a different weight, and the goals aren’t built into the wall anymore. It’s like hockey where you can go behind it now.

And there’s an event currency to buy some decent rewards you can get from playing.

Also amusing is someone who asked in a tech support channel on discord why they were having issues with Wine trying to run Overwatch…
Its wine. If there are issues reinstall and tweak… Or just give up and use windows :stuck_out_tongue:
Oh well.

In other news. There’s another AMD vlan coming up on the 28th :smiley:

No I’m thinking of live services.
Imagine a Doom with an Endless Random Generated maps.
It probably won’t be that.

Its not Bethesda, its Id so I highly doubt that lol.
Besides. The only way that would be good is if it was a CoD Zombies style multiplayer so. But that’s been done to death already so…

RANT: When companies patch exploits in single player games and it requires player intent to trigger. If it gives someone a advantage in a world only effected by them does it really matter enough that you have to remove it. If you can sit there and grind something for 3 hours to gain a large amount of levels then why stop it? its a world where my actions matter the most then let me be the one to make those choices

Exactly, the argument is always its cheating and breaks the game but the only person your “ruining” the experience for is yourself, it really shouldn’t matter but I think the developers have an thing for wanting people to experience the game the way they intended it to be and don’t like that it can get around that with bugs and exploits even if it is singleplayer.

I wanted Linux Tablets to be a thing but it never really happened. Though you can install linux on a tablet.

Nothing preventing you from installing it on old tablets besides the fact the manufacturers lock down the devices at the firmware level and used closed sourced drivers :frowning:

Not even Android could make Linux good on a tablet.

Yep. There is reason Chrome Tablets are happening.

coughs
Installing linux onto a Microsoft Surface is a thing

also one of the more useful things to do with the annoying things

Now android apps need to work well on Chrome OS.
Remind me why the FOSSers aren’t focusing all their efforts to get Android apps to run on Linux?

Oh, right they are too hipster.

God forbid you have working software on Linux.

Google runs their own kernel which has been heavily modified. Would pretty much have to just run it in a VM because a container wouldnt be compatible
