Yep. Fuck Nintendo. I don’t care how good their games might be, they’re not getting another dime from me for as long as they’re hostile to their community and customers.

RustDesk is the closest alternative, and I think it does a pretty good job.

It’ll be Ubislop, or your money back!

Lol. It’s a close second, but at least Apple isn’t blatantly hostile toward users in the same way that Microsoft is.

Obligatory people getting mad at you for people suggesting you stop using software that is openly hostile toward you response.

Reporting back:

I tried installing The Witcher and Psychonaut. Both worked mostly seemlessly after prompting to install Wine-GE. The main issue I’m having is with controller support, but this may just be a result of trying much older games and mixing that with trying to use Steam Input through the Heroic launcher. I suspect this can be alleviated by using the “Automatically add games to Steam” option and launching the games through Steam, rather than Heroic. Alternatively, if you’re willing to map your bindings for each game, or you are on something other than a Steamdeck and use keyboard and mouse, you should be fine.

I recommend giving a game you already own on Gog a try and seeing how it works for you.

I’ve heard that the Heroic launcher is good for this. I’ll try it out on my Steamdeck and report back.

This is just me being pedantic, but I keep seeing this mistake when UTM is mentioned (specifically in headlines), so I feel like I have to say something:

UTM is not an emulator. It is virtual machine software that uses an emulator (QEMU) to virtualize operating systems.

The difference: emulators emulate hardware. On which, the virtualized operating systems run.

Servo cannot come soon enough. And yet… it’s so far from being even close to ready for real usage.

I’ve never heard of it before. Is it this? I don’t see any mention of it being FOSS or even where to download their app.

They only just added the option to use a self-hosted instance a few weeks ago, if I remember correctly. If it’s not there now, it should be there soon.

Maybe, but the thing that makes iOS Shortcuts so great is that it basically offers an extensive GUI to interact with all of the system’s APIs.

An equivalent to iOS Shortcuts for Android and Linux.

Yeah. I hope as Helix grows more popular, our problems will solve themselves in both directions: where Helix can address them directly, and people start hacking Neovim to work more like it.

Out of curiosity: what issues with the LSP are you having and what distro do you run? I’ve found that most of my issues could be resolved by running Helix’s health checks and making sure that the binaries needed by the LSP are available in $PATH.

Unfortunately, I did start having issues with Go where it seems like the LSP might be crashing and I’ve yet to resolve that one for myself.

As someone that never really clicked with Vim, but has been enjoying Helix, I’ve been looking for the opposite: something that makes Neovim follow the selection-action paradigm, along with all of the Helix keybindings.

I don’t see many people running Alpine on bare metal. It’s usually in containers.

How do you like it? I’ve been curious about trying, but haven’t found the time.

I played the demo for this. The atmosphere is excellent. It’s like a cross between Silent Hill and the PSX Final Fantasy games. This is definitely worth a look if you haven’t heard of it before.

Hello, fellow pirates.

Don’t mind me and my new account. Please run this binary on your computer 🤡

For macOS, I recommend UTM.

FYI: There is a dark pattern in the mobile app where, if you toggle the opt-out buttons in order from top to bottom, one of them will enable themselves.
