BDFL is such a weird concept to stem from the late 20th century.

BDFL privilege…
Cherry picking, but one could argue that rudeness is a lazy general term and Linus’ rudeness is about not including BS while NSL wanted the inverse of including something others did to show off. Not an apology for either of those blokes

Being rude doesn’t get you too far in OSS.
- Comment on There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple. 2 months ago:
I don’t remember exactly, but some relative poverty lines start at 60% of median household income.
- £700 / (£32,400 * .6 / 12) ≈ .43, thus 43% of monthly income for a poor household in the UK
- $700 / ($74,580 * .6 / 12) ≈ .19, thus 19% of monthly income for a poor household in the US
I hope median household income is netto, otherwise this is skewed.
- Comment on Microsoft paves the way for Linux gaming success with plan that would kill kernel-level anti-cheat 3 months ago:
Paving the way for Linux gaming is a bit of a stretch here, but yes, userspacing security in Windows could enable Linux compatibility better.

- Comment on What do you use the back buttons for? 6 months ago:
In WR:SR (a Industrial City-Building Economy and Transport Simulator), there are different placing and overlay modes, like Snap-to-Grid (L4), Elevation (R4) and Underground view (R5), but I still need the first two buttons for zooming/radius(L1,R1), placing(R2)/removal(R2) confirm and the small buttons for placement elevation (for road/rails (and their bridges), pipes/cables) (X,B), mirroring (Y). (I forgot what A was for).
Basically every time you need more than two keys on the keyboard and the mouse simultanously, for the equivalent on the SD, the lower backbuttons come in handy.
I have a game that I was afraid of figuring out the controls yet; it is Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. In this game I will likely need every available button twice or something.
- Comment on Do you still use your Steam Deck much? 6 months ago:
I don’t have a room that would justify a desk. I use the SD daily and it’s faster than my other options anyway.

Press STEAM > Go to controller settings (proper, not just the layout display) > Either press on the current layout to look for a different template or press on Edit layout

I’m getting annoyed with the constant crashes of Workers & Resources (Industrial Planning, Construction and Management Game). It is by far my favourite game at the moment, but the game is very unstable on Linux, which can be very frustrating. I’d really like to learn more about troubleshooting compatibility layers and start options.
Minecraft runs smooth with Prism Launcher, which doesn’t even have this annoying credential-loss bug like on the official launcher. Why would anyone map shift to pressing the stick in Minecraft? Proper crouching is but so important to edge-work and digging down.

How’s the setup?

Never played FNV before and just killed Vulpes Inculta in Nipton and the game got so hard after this. I wouldn’t have played FNV if it wasn’'t for the Steam Deck, but it’s great so far.
- Comment on 7 months ago:
FNV worked OOTB.

Ok, what am I doing wrong that Fallout 3 isn’t working? It just crashes on start.

Why, everyone’s bastard?
- Comment on [Game] MONSTER HUNTER RISE adds new DRM that breaks it on Steam Deck 10 months ago:
Not a guy, but yes. Still, exactly because Valve is partially Big DRM, Valve developing Anti-DRM software as weapon of competition would be quite ironic. Mutually Assured Legal Hell.
- Comment on [Game] MONSTER HUNTER RISE adds new DRM that breaks it on Steam Deck 10 months ago:
Would be funny if Valve would develop Anti-DRM software because of stuff like that
