This is my fun social media account, I will post a lot of video game stuff (mostly old or cloud gaming) and some work stuff.
If I post an image with no Alt text it is because the image is just there for decoration and doesn't provide any extra meaning to the toot.

Uncharted 4 performance problem fixed. I decided to replace Fedora by Ubuntu on the laptop I was using, did a clean install, enabled « force full composition pipeline » in the Nvidia settings, and now I get a smooth, stable 60FPS on medium, at 1080p upscaled to 4K, and no stutters.
Another case where Proton gets a better result than Windows did. Also, it made me use the old big picture mode, which isn’t that bad. New one is better, but doesn’t run well on Nvidia.

Went back on Birdsite for a moment (followed a news link about their blocking 3rd party API access now). Having not been on for a few weeks it was stark how much more awful & generally unpleasant to use it is.
Granted I've not been hugely active here either, been just less on socials which has felt positive, but still.

Playing Doom every now and then helps you going through this sad and complicated world #doom #gaming #dos #doom #retrogaming #firstpersonshooter #retroarch
@darth it is the equivalent of saying "I hear ya". It isn't I agree, or I liked what you said. It is simply, I hear ya...
@Deuchnord totally agree with that. There are games I've bought multiple times just to be able to do that.
@trinsec agree. I'd go further, I'd auto-block every developer who creates hentai or other cheesy sex games. Sure allow them because Valve will Valve, but make it an option to turn on rather than present users with all that stuff by default. It cheapens the whole platform.
Do you know what I think the #gaming world needs?
Better curated marketplaces. All the main marketplaces #Steam, #Xbox, #Nintendo, #PlayStation, and the #mobile ones are full of #shovelware. There needs to be a view (possibly the default view) with quality, curated stuff that you can rely on being a masterpiece created with real love and not just a crappy game.
And I don’t just mean AAA games (those often are crappy), I mean a list of works of art.
PS: I’ve been using the Steam store a lot because of #SteamDeck and wow! It’s terrible what makes it in there.
@lowqualityfacts win win situation?
@lowqualityfacts I always thought that military grade meant that it was made by the lowest bidder.

Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar was the first version of Mac OS to be released on two double-sided LP records.
I’m enjoying playing #cyberpunk2077 between #SteamDeck and #GFN. Looks great on GFN with #RTX on. #CloudGaming for performance local for convenience… got it the wrong way round there to most scenarios, but it is working for me. #gaming

I really hope this doesn't mean the end of #Haloinfinite :( But I suspect it does. #gaming https://www.gamespot.com/articles/halo-infinite-developer-joseph-staten-is-leaving-343-industries-and-returning-to-xbox-publishing-report/1100-6510677/
