Now do GOG!

There is no DRM on GOG. You can just download the offline installer, then install it even without an internet connection. It will never ask you to go online because it doesn't need to check anything.

Jesus, that sounds like hell.

I'm just hoping for a new Riddick game. Escape from Butcher Bay was amazing.

Yeah just gotta finish my current game and I'm switching to Godot ASAP.

Buy a cheap ice cream maker and make your own with lactose-free dairy! It's surprisingly easy.

If I tell you I'm your god and you should give me all your money or you won't go to heaven, you will rightly call me a liar, even though you can't really prove that I'm not.

You won't say "oh I guess there's no way to prove he's not god, so I'd better give him my money".

In science, the default stance on something existing is that it doesn't, unless there's solid proof, or at least a compelling scientific theory suggesting that it does.

Which did you use to prove there is? What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.

He's only not evil because he can't understand his actions.

A god would have to be dumb for this logic to apply.

Steam is a ticking time bomb but mostly for the reason that you don't own the games you purchase there and you can't back them up (mostly) so when Steam decides to ban your account or just closes down, you lose all of your games forever.

More people should push for DRM-free games with offline installers, like GOG and Itch offer.

That's why we need a remodel of the economy to go along with it. The only way to stop the creation of more "rich" is to get rid of capitalism altogether.

How does this compare to Joplin?

Is there, or will there be a self-hostable server to sync notes between devices?

And does it support Markdown?

Hello!

I have to RMA my Steam Deck (one of thumbsticks grinds against the plastic case) and I'm trying to backup my non-Steam games (and their Lutris configs).

Apparently Discovery uses flatpak, so Lutris config files aren't where the internet says they are (~/.config/lutris/games/, ~/.config/lutris/system.yml, ~/.local/share/lutris/pga.db).

Could anyone please tell me where I can find these on the Steam Deck and what else I might be missing? I've already backed up ~/Games but I'd rather not have to re-add the games manually :(

Bonus question is if anyone has any tips for painless Steam Deck backup/restore :)

EDIT:

After a long search, I was able to find it. If anyone else is wondering, the Flatpak/Steam Deck Lutris config files are located in ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/config/lutris.

For some reason, Lutris-installed native Linux games also treat ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/ as their home folder (e.g. Stardew Valley stores its saves in ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/.config/StardewValley instead of ~/.config/StardewValley).

If anyone can say why this happens, that would be very appreciated!
