  #Epicgames have launched it's first official #LinuxGaming client in beta and have announced that #Fortnite is coming officially to Linux. Cool right? They brag that they have vibe-coded the whole thing, not sure why they do that (brag), because... it's really shit! The AppImage thing is really stupid, just give me a repo to add guys! Also, what's up with this big space of nothing? And did I mention that I'm not able to launch any games? They should just have...

  Oh, how I loved this game! I remember I played it for hours and hours on my 486 (the first PC I built myself)! I think this was the game that started my fascination for the #cyberpunk genre. #retrogaming https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZCiJx8A5Mg

  Don't mess with Dutch and Arthur... Chapter 3 was the best chapter so far in my book, I'm ready for chapter 4 of #RDR2 now. #LinuxGaming

  Please #USA, don't come to our kings funeral 🙏 I know we where allies once, but just keep your dictator-loving crazy politicians away. Go visit your new best friends in North Korea instead. #Norway #uspol

  So, to get this right: if Iran defends it self against an aggressor, #USA threatens to commit war crimes by killing innocent, unarmed civilians, destroy private property and create an environmental disaster? Who where the good guys again? I don't remember... As a famous Norwegian poet and singer wrote: "We dreamt of America, but not anymore." #uspol #trump #hegseth

  Today it's 25 years since the worst terrorist attack in history. Luckily the #USA today have a president that boldly saw the attack from his office window, rushed down to ground zero with a few hundred workers and got carried out by a couple of firefighters. All while being many miles away... It's all very impressive. #trump #uspol https://abcnews.com/Politics/trump-claims-firefighters-carried-ground-zero-after-911/story?id=136306942

  Arthur and Dutch looks really good in tuxedos. The story in #RDR2 just gets better and better, I'm now almost half way through the main quest.

  I bought #Wildblue Skies on :steam: sale yesterday. It sure beings with it a bunch of retro/arcade feelings. I never played #Starfox much, so can't say anything about the resemblance there. It's quite difficult (or I really suck, I admit that is an option), but I like the artstyle and feel of it so far, so happy with the purchase. And it runs really good on :fedora: and :steamdeck: #LinuxGaming

  We dreamed of America, where the west wind dwells. We dreamed of America, where honeyflowers swell, where the sky is vast and blue, with stars and stripes in view, we dreamed of America but no longer now, no, not any longer now. This was written by the Norwegian artist Odd Børretzen 31 years ago, but I don't think it's ever been more true than now.

  Tonight I've updated my #Fedora :fedora: gaming-script to include the installation of Nvidia #GeForceNow. #LinuxGaming #Codeberg https://codeberg.org/vidrir/linuxgaming/commit/b5e5efd3f5f2b441c5517627d012a2e89ad95772

  I just love this CLI based internet radio app so much. It's simple, fast and quite good looking. I actually have it on "speed dial" on my Stream Deck. #linux

  I grew up playing #ChuckieEgg on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Today I discovered that almost 10 years ago, someone recreated this awesome game. It doesn't have very good reviews on #Steam :steam:but I bought it anyway, and I have to say I love it! For €4 it's a steal 😎 And I can confirm it works perfectly on the #LegionGo S with #SteamOS, so most likely just as good on #SteamDeck as well. I just had to adjust to the correct screen resolution. #LinuxGaming #retroGaming

  I've updated my :fedora: :gamepad_white: gaming-optimization-script today by adding a countdown and removed several Enter-clicks for the user to make it more userfriendly and robust. https://codeberg.org/vidrir/linuxgaming

  I was going to buy #NivalisNights on launch today, but as I see all the complaints about performance issues so I'm waiting to see if they fix it. The City of Ghosts DLC for #Cloudpunk also got on sale today, so I bought that instead, looking forward to spending a few more hours in a Nova roaming #Nivalis instead 😎 #LinuxGaming

  #TheWitcher3WildHuntBloodandWine Remastered is running impressively well on my Lenovo Legion Go S (Z1E, Steam OS). With the #SteamDeck settings profile I'm getting 45fps quite steadily while the game still looks freakishly amazing on the 8 inch screen.

  #Steam :steam: have their annual autumn sale now and I've secured myself a few gems for almost nothing: - Portal + Portal 2 bundle - City of Ghosts (Cloudpunk DLC) - Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny

  Well, Mr. President. I guess I am the ENEMY then, because I refuse to call a very fast prediction engine "super intelligence". Yeeez... #uspol #Trump #AI

  So #Trump condemns Norway for giving the #Nobel2026 Peace Price to an old woman that has dedicated her entire life to peace and equality while he agrees to enrich the war criminal #Putin. How sad to see what the #US have become. Can the #USA ever come back from this? #uspol

  I'm seriously intrigued by the "new" :linux: distro #omachy. Considering installing it on one of my old #Thinkpads. Anyone using it? And if so, how is it for #LinuxGaming? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7fe9pa8OeE

  RE: https://mastodon.online/@9to5Mac/117293373468933663 This is just sad, why do people keep using Meta services? If you are going to use an AI chat agent, at least use one with some degree of dignity and moral compas. Like Claude or Mistral. I use Claude for work (as my employer demands, and pays for) and Mistral personally (through Kagi Assistant).

  Are orange #watch straps still a thing, or is it yesterdays news? Because I found this really cool and comfy orange (I have to admit orange is one of my favorite colours in general) nylon strap for my #Garmin #Fenix7pro. But is it a bit cheesy to use these days?

  I've finally started my journey with #ResidentEvil 4 (remake) today. It's my first journey in this universe. I'm not very good aiming with controllers though, so not sure if this will become a game I play on the #LegionGoS, or if I'll just play it on my PC. It runs very well on the Legion Go S. I can get about 60fps, just have to adjust a lot of graphics settings to Low/Medium and turn off some stuff (none of it is very visible reductions on the small screen anyway). #SteamOS...

  I had totally forgotten how violent and grotesque #DaysGone are. I picked it up again today after not having played it for a year. I remember everything. Totally i've played the game over 90 hours, I think this is the game I've played the most, like ever.

  I created a repo on #Codeberg today with my Fedora "gaming-script" (optimize Fedora for gaming) and guide for making the game Neverness to Everness to work with Steam on Linux. More will probably be added to the repo later related to #LinuxGaming https://codeberg.org/vidrir/linuxgaming

  After 3,6 hours of play, I died for the first time. Yeah, I play #Replaced on #EasyMode and I'm not ashamed of it :lol:

  Grids are fun... Not really sure what I was aiming for here, I basically just added the first nine games that came to mind.

  Daughter 1.0 and I can confirm that #nevernesstoeverness works flawless on #Fedora :fedora: with a bit of tinkering to get it installed through Steam (using DW Proton latest). Note: you have to download and install it manually, you can use Heroic, I chose Steam. #linuxgaming

  Ended up replacing #PopOS with #Fedora (KDE Plasma) on the gaming PC today. Could not be happier! Dual screen, mouse focus, fullscreen... Everything I struggled with gaming on Pop!_OS works out of the box. Not sure if its because of Fedora or KDE Plasma. Wasn't to much hazzel setting up proprietary Nvidia drivers either.

  I have a #blog now! Self-hosted on #yunohost using WriteFreely. I don't have a big plan for it, will probably use it for longer text posts than Mastodon allows 🙂 https://vidrir.blog/iov6jtfbf0

  RE: https://gamepad.club/@Vidrir/116375994176946096 Almost two weeks later and I just got a push notification that the postal service have delivered the last half of this #mechanicalkeyboard in my mailbox at home. The temptation to play hooky and go home to finish my build is real...
