Now do GOG!

Jesus, that sounds like hell.

Steam is a ticking time bomb but mostly for the reason that you don't own the games you purchase there and you can't back them up (mostly) so when Steam decides to ban your account or just closes down, you lose all of your games forever.

More people should push for DRM-free games with offline installers, like GOG and Itch offer.

You're not "supposed to" upgrade every year, that's the point. You should be able to use a 5 year old phone if you want to.

So something like a Synology NAS, I guess.

So, as far as I understand, he was fined 3 years salary for doing the job he was hired to do (I consider using Google/Github as part of the job).

Utterly horrifying. Especially when you realize that merely accessing Google is illegal in China...

Absolutely ridiculous and serves nothing but to make the CEOs feel better.

The argument of deliberately misunderstanding the context and meaning of a comment is indefensible...?
Or do you mean to suggest that we should completely ignore when someone is cherry-picking news to fit an agenda and spread anti-Ukraine sentiment?

Because I'd have no problem with this news article being posted, if this same person didn't post several other very specific articles today.

FYI: OP is a tankie who just spams any news he can find to discourage people from supporting Ukraine in the war.

It's not owning up if you've been caught red-handed, denied any wrongdoing, and only made an apology video once your subs started tanking. At this point it just feels like damage control.

The "haha, we've made an oopsie" tone of the video (sponsorship jokes, plugging their store link, possible sex joke, deflecting to "I'm just a human" instead of fully taking the blame) don't sit right with me. I was also hoping they would address Madison's comments on why she quit.

Hello!

I have to RMA my Steam Deck (one of thumbsticks grinds against the plastic case) and I'm trying to backup my non-Steam games (and their Lutris configs).

Apparently Discovery uses flatpak, so Lutris config files aren't where the internet says they are (~/.config/lutris/games/, ~/.config/lutris/system.yml, ~/.local/share/lutris/pga.db).

Could anyone please tell me where I can find these on the Steam Deck and what else I might be missing? I've already backed up ~/Games but I'd rather not have to re-add the games manually :(

Bonus question is if anyone has any tips for painless Steam Deck backup/restore :)

EDIT:

After a long search, I was able to find it. If anyone else is wondering, the Flatpak/Steam Deck Lutris config files are located in ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/config/lutris.

For some reason, Lutris-installed native Linux games also treat ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/ as their home folder (e.g. Stardew Valley stores its saves in ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/.config/StardewValley instead of ~/.config/StardewValley).

If anyone can say why this happens, that would be very appreciated!
