Sure, but with a VPN. If my government wants to ban VPNs, I guess it’s pretty easy to see that 99,9% of my requests go to single IP that belongs to a VPN server

They can criminalize you for doing it. Would you take the risks?

Safety is not what’s this about, it’s obviously control

Not the “install a VPN to be safe on public wifi” again 😭

Sure we’re on Lemmy, but this isn’t that true to outside world people. Most of them play a few games at best, and most of them are made by companies with a lot of money

We just said Epic doesn’t like Linux. I want a Linux compatible competitor to Steam.

I run Heroic Games Launcher and it works well, but support should be native

And apart from that, Fortnite makes money through in app purchases or micro transactions, not games sales. Improving their store would be huge

That’s dumb. Steam needs competition.

That’s a you thing

Fortnite can’t be played on Linux?

Two F2P games? Most sales happen on Steam, except those few rare examples.

Yet they also are the ones who pushed unregulated gambling and the whole skins economy

They’re also the ones that are accused of abusing they monopolist position regarding store prices (if you sell on Steam, you can’t sell cheaper elsewhere)

By all means, their actions have good consequences, but don’t be fooled.

Valve abandoning their 30% greedy cut? Never!

What’s the point? The entire point of a phone would be compatibility with apps. You can already run something nice and repairable and relatively open if you go over the fact that many features won’t work with it, like some banking apps, NFC payments…

Won’t steam machine have a lot of soldered components? But yea they’ll probably sell spare parts so at least that’s a good point

Source and how the fuck is this related?

As someone who used to get sick in cars and boats, I got it, so you might as well

If the technology interests you, then sick or not, you’ll probably like it. Won’t play every day, but it’ll be a nice experience.

Start with games with not a lot of motion (beat saber for example), then move to more intensive games. You’ll get sick after 15mins, then 20mins, then 25… until you last for a couple hours, and at this point you’ve built your resistance.

Just stop playing when you feel sick and try again an hour later when you feel better or a few days later

But yea, VR isn’t straightforward or an obvious purchase. It requires time and will, and money, obviously

It’s clearly a luxury and you need to have too much money or be really motivated to purchase it

Also given how common it seems to be anecdotally to get sick from it, no one wants to jump in just to have to jump back out.

you can build a resistance to it. It takes time, and it was the case for me

Well… you just said no software works. They’ve given you counter examples, now you either have to cite examples of software not working with screen sharing or you’re the fool

Who cares about your invented god? Let people speak however they want

Thanks, I’ll watch this
