  • I do agree with the part where software moves, dependencies yada, yada… I’m a developer myself.

    But… this is different. They eliminated a perfectly working game, where they didn’t have to invest a minute of labor to get it working on Linux. The only thing they had to provide was the .so-file (for EAC) when publishing to Steam… Valve did all the work to make EAC compatible on Linux, yes, on user-level… but still… it fucking worked.

    Punishing an entire userbase, because other assholes (assumably) used Linux for cheating is discrimination. Even if there were no cheaters at all… it’s still discrimination… because it used to fucking work.











  • As someone who lives in Austria and happens to have immigrant roots (parents came here in the early 90ies)

    The rise of the far right is partly due to the incompetence of the other parties.

    The social democrats are almost non existent when it comes to political topics of any sort.

    The “greens” (mostly left) turned out to be kissasses with whomever they coalition with.

    And the bitches-of-the-riches (that’s literally how they called themselves) well… they only act in the interest of the wealthiest.

    So, “normal” people have almost no sane option to vote for, and some even go as far as to vote the far-rights as an act of demonstration.

    Sure, there are other small parties to vote for, but at the end, they might get 3% all together, because they just din’t have the budget to advertise themselves strong enough, like the big ones do.
