@Plume The Witness has no menu and no savegames. When you boot it up, you’re instantly exactly where you left off.
This doesn’t work for all games, but I wish more games would do it like that.

@AnonStoleMyPants @tal And being able to pause a cutscene (That includes putting the system to sleep now!)
@DerpyPlayz18 They are not instant. I also don’t feel comfortable giving my biometric data to some shady company just so I can unlock my phone.
@ijeff I’m never going to use passkeys because they require to have a lockscreen on the device, and I don’t have one.
You might think “Isn’t that kinda dangerous?”
And I say: My devices are never left unattended, so a lockscreen is just an obstacle to get back where I was. Honestly, try disabling your lockscreen. The fact that you can press one button and be right where you left off is priceless.
So, screw passkeys and their stupid rules.
@ThemboMcBembo @ProvokedGamer That’s a good way to think about it.
@PuppyOSAndCoffee Probably nothing for a N900 but I’ve heard so much of it. I really should give it a try. How does Enlightenment run with older hardware? I’m talking 8-10 years old.
@Sentientted @CookieJarObserver The only gripe I have with the Pixel (4a in my case) is that the file system is so locked down, but that’s just a modern Android thing. I wish I was able to change the default search engine but eh, can’t complain.
I don’t have a Pinephone personally, but #postmarketOS has come a long way and supposedly runs very well on recent hardware. Give it another 1-2 years and it will be rock solid for daily use.
@MonkderZweite Well, a window manager is for managing windows, right? So, having it also provide a list of windows to click on is resonable, in my opinion.
I should’ve added that I’m planning to run it on a Nokia N900 with 600 MHz and 256 MB RAM, both #XFCE and #LXDE are way too heavy for it. Also, most of their menus don’t fit on the 800×480 pixel screen.
Honestly, that’s all I want but stripped down so it can run on a system with 256 MB RAM.

I haven’t looked too deep into what’s possible with the config files of i3 or awesome. Maybe I should do that first. I just assumed they would be too keyboard focused. I want everything to be visible on screen, so you don’t have to remember hotkeys.
@douglasg14b @fwygon I love Kagi. For technical topics, the search quality is unparalleled. For everything else it’s about the same.
@aksdb @neon_arch Oh yes! I used SearXNG and it was quite slow.
@Lojcs You think so? It must do something on the hardware level. If you install something like @postmarketos and let the deivce just sit doing nothing with its screen off, the battery doesn’t last nearly as long as with Android. There must be some trickery going on…
@pjhenry1216 @MyUnclesSecret Not quite. A gas stove requires gas. I can run it from canisters if I want to. In fact, I know someone who does.

Update: Most issues were fixed through updates, I guess we just wanted to play in a really unfortunate time.
The locking up problem is related to a DLL mismatch when attempting #Windows / #Linux crossplay. In short: Copy your Windows friends’ ucrtbase.dll
from both the System32
and the SysWOW64
folders to your Windows folder in #Steam’s compatdata
folder and you’re good to go!
We had a great time playing last night.
@jackpot @interdimensionalmeme Syncthing does not require a server and is much easier to set up from a user perspective.
@SexualPolytope @galaxi It’s alright mate, the call it “cold brew”
@hyperio The great thing is, I don’t even have to sign up. I just follow this sub (do you still call it a sub?) from my #Mastodon!
Ahh, bless the #Fediverse.
@Plume Oh yeah and this: Start the game in a neutral area or room where you can test the controls and sound are working properly and ensure the performance is right BEFORE the intro cutscene plays.
