My favourite PP tidbit is that he wanted to get rid of democracy (limit the ability to have fair elections) to keep Harper in power and was told no by his own party
You can leave “share email with (company that owns game you’re buying)” unchecked at checkout
Games on Epic are by default DRM free but game companies can turn DRM on, unfortunately it doesn’t tell you prior to buying the game if you can play it without the launcher or not
Edit: people can correct me instead of downvoting but you should also look at using heroic games launcher. I’m not sure but it should help hide your data
A Korean company using Koreans for setting up their proprietary technology makes sense
This whole thing was a non-issue but Pierre (long thought to be the dumbest politician in Canada) wanted to prove his detractors right acted like it was. His justification for it being an issue coming from his party just further illustrates to the public how dumb he is
The bad faith is getting rid of Israel, getting rid of Israel/converting them to Islam is how this whole thing started ~1000 years ago or whatever
The pro Palestine argument is coexist
You can look at the US civil rights movement, King’s (and others) anti-violence approach (while the other side was extremely violent) is why it was so successful. The aggressor can’t paint the other side as bad if they don’t commit crimes
No, if you agree to their license then you have access to the source. There is no payment required
In your unreal account you need to link your GitHub account to it then you will have access to it
You can also modify and redistribute it/sell it without any fees (the license passes downstream so your users would still owe Epic royalties after $1 million earned)
With the parliamentary clock ticking down and the government yet to pass their 'affordable housing and groceries' bill—the first piece of federal legislation tabled in the fall sitting—the NDP have agreed to help the Liberals advance Bill C-56 in exchange for a series of amendments inspired by a similar bill from Leader...
/1. PC is short for personal computer, if it has a motherboard and can be used outside of a commercial setting then it’s a PC
/2. Whether you are using a closed source OS like Windows/Xbox/Mac/PlayStation/Switch on your device or an open source one like Linux it doesn’t change the device
So if your argument is that a console is a console because the user hasn’t installed Linux yet then why use the term PC instead of calling it a Linux device?
A personal computer (PC) is a multi-purpose microcomputer whose size, capabilities, and price make it feasible for individual use.[1] Personal computers are intended to be operated directly by an end user, rather than by a computer expert or technician.
Yes, but currently (post court case) nothing can be done at all. A warning label is better than that, also we would have single use banned and then a label on everything else
When I first read the titile, I thought that the US is going to have to build A LOT to triple global production. Then it occured to me that the author means the US is pledging to make deals and agreements which enable other countries to build their own. Sometimes I think the US thinks too much of itself and that’s also very...
the heroic launcher was recently updated to support gamescope (installed it through flatpak by installing org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.gamescope 23.08 through the terminal using >flatpak install)....
Game scope is a micro-compositor, it’s how the Steamdeck handles games and probably steam. Basically the settings there, you can have the game in 1080p but upscaled by FSR/DLSS to 4k. The difference is that only the game is upscaled, not the whole system
Heroic is a launcher for Epic, Amazon, and GOG
Yes, it can be seen as an alternative to Bottles/Lutris but the stores and libraries are baked in
