  • I’m back on Windows 11 for the first length of time in a while, after a hardware switch.

    It’s aggravating as hell with all the popups and embedded ads. My last update just straight up failed and had to revert.

    I also don’t get what Windows users are talking about when they say Linux is harder. Every time I have to change a minor setting in Windows, it feels like I’m picking through 20 years of legacy dialogs, and I never know which layer of legacy it’ll be buried in.

    Gnome. Mostly vanilla except for some extended tiling for when I need it. Also sped up animations.

    I bind Activities to an extra mouse button. But I’m also comfortable without that.

    I’ve used a lot of stuff over the years. Started with the kde 3 series. I just don’t really want to do a lot of fiddling anymore, and find the default Gnome workflow to be a really good fit for me.



  • I’d usually be inclined to agree with you, except no one in gamedev would have balked at the final position. 2.5% revenue share over 1m is less than Unreal even.

    Maybe it’s a tactic they believed they were using. But that would just be a different kind of stupid, because they burnt a lot of trust over something no one would care about.

    It could be another kind of bluff though. It could have been the CEO signalling he’s the toughguy who’s willing to make tough decisions so he can get some job down the line.
