I guess some of those people you knew at school who just couldn’t help spouting any nonsense that would make them seem cool never grew out of it

I actually love that design, it’s minimal without being corpo-slick. Is it just a mockup or is there some way to make all my computers look that way?

I’ve never tried a game I couldn’t play on my Steam Deck, or even on the desktop I built a decade ago. I don’t really play brand-new games, but I’ve got so many unplayed classics that I don’t need new hardware.

Support for other versions of the game is planned in the future.

You might still be in luck

This one?

Apparently so!

Requires being on an older version though, right?

Oh nice, how? Wilbrand?

Ripping a GameCube disc is pretty simple if you’ve got a hacked Wii, which is not too hard to do if you own specific games

I’m keen to put PostmarketOS on them all and build a Kubernetes cluster. Just don’t ask me what I’m going to run on it!

On the other hand it’s never been a better time to be a PC player. I pick up multiple free games every day. I have decades of classics I can emulate. I have vast choices of the hardware I can use. I use Proton to run games flawlessly on an OS they were never designed for, and I can even use something like GameNative to run them on the phone I’ve already got in my pocket!

We invite you to join us at Next ‘26 to talk about new capabilities

This post is just the announcement for a conference talk

How would that provide anything that they can’t already do with a normal barcode? (Just watch the video, it’s a classic Chris Spargo mildly interesting)

Check out linux-surface for details of what works on your specific model (and if you’ll need to install the custom kernel). I have a surface pro 3, it struggles but basically everything works which is cool.

I have RDX installed purely so that when I’m searching for something and the answer is in a Reddit thread I can view it on my phone

Highlights it perfectly!

What’s the old adage? Users are very good at telling you what doesn’t work and very bad at telling you how it should be improved.

I’d guess most players aren’t even aware. I play a lot of games (though probably none that have this stuff enabled) and before joining Lemmy I’d never even heard of Denuvo. The average user just buys a game and plays it.

Security is their whole purpose, and it’s explained in the very first point on their FAQ

These devices meet the stringent privacy and security standards and have substantial upstream and downstream hardening specific to the devices.

What is?
