Hi, I’m Miss Brainfart.

I’m afraid of sharks, with the exception being blåhaj. What could that possibly mean, huh.
(That’s not a hint, I genuinely have no idea)

Lemmings can also find me @miss_brainfart:catgirl.cloud on Matrix, if they desire to do so for e2ee reasons

    Many games might actually be DRM free without you realizing. Look them up on PC Gaming Wiki, and maybe you’ll like what you see.

    With some games it’s as simple as launching them directly from the executable to circumvent annoying launchers and accounts.

    Something most people probably don’t even think of doing anymore, and why would they. But it never hurts to try.


  • Well, yes. Which is why I mentioned the Spacers Choice edition.

    It doesn’t seem to have the same specific issues on Windows though, apart from generally performng worse than anyone would expect it to.

    So I reckon I’ll just try and see for myself if that’s true. Because the problems many Linux users (me included) seem to have according to ProtonDB make the game borderline unplayable.

    Sometimes not even borderline.

    Anyone playing Outer Worlds, the Spacers Choice Edition? Suuuper annoying issues, I might actually install it on Windows instead

    Edit:
    Flawless on Windows, general performance seems to be a tad better, too.

    Which is great to see, because that means it’s not the game itself, and that maybe Wine/Proton will be able to fix these issues

    Older MacOS versions had stuff like the chess game preinstalled for no reason, though I don’t know how current versions look like.

    I also don’t know how easy it is to remove preinstalled apps nowadays. Back in the day, you could disable System Integrity Protection, remove whatever you want, and re-enable Protection afterwards.



  • But please tell your contacts that you’re using bridges, if you haven’t already.

    You are effectively giving away encryption keys to a third party, since those messages need to be decrypted and re-encrypted mid-transit.
    Everyone who is part of the chats you use bridges with deserves to know about that fact, at least.
