Mum's teaching them how to make a squirrel and egg sandwich.

I'm curious, would running the Flatpak version of Steam "fix" this by providing its own glibc?

You know, for the people that want to stay on an old glibc yet are also comfortable with using Flatpak.

The mobile and PC gaming markets are very different, both in terms of monetisation and what games people expect to play.

If Valve wanted to get into the mobile games industry they'd basically be starting from scratch, and I don't think it's a market they're particularly interested in.

You're also assuming that buying a game on PC steam will also give you a license to play that game on android, which isn't a given. I think many games have completely different monetisation models on mobile vs pc, so sharing between platforms like that wouldn't make sense.

Fun nature fact: Their horns act like lighting rods to provide a safe path to ground so as to keep the electricity away from their internal wiring and plumbing.

You know, I think a society of chickens probably would have no qualms with eating their own eggs, since irl chickens do. I think irl chickens'll eat everything.

Also, depending on your definition of it, I think these would be considered vegan eggs? Since consent by the animal was given?

For me, 70% of the time this is usually just "you need to practice to get okay at it". Effort.

For anyone nostalgic about video game manuals, I'd recommend the game Tunic and going into it as blind as possible.

Server side anticheat needs to be tailer-made for every game; you need to have logic that understands how your game plays and what conditions mark a cheater.

With the kernel level client anticheat, you only need to verify one thing: that the user hasn't modified the game files. It's not 100% effective, but it's effective enough to keep script kiddies away.

I mean, bait aside, creating a new distro with an existing package manager allows you to set up a different set of default packages and even add your own new/updated ones. That's the value of it there.

If I wanted to self host a search engine, I'd just use a proper one that actually searches content rather than regurgitates bullshit.

Search engines worked just fine until Google and Microsoft decided that they wanted to sell their AI products.
