Haha, I hear you, although it could just be down to being an early adopter!

Very interesting! Yes, it seems that the game has progressed a lot in the last few years. The tutorial level seemed very well done to me, and taught me most of what I thought I needed to know to play the game.

Got it, I just haven’t looked at any of them closely enough to give an informed opinion on this. Both Gnome and KDE (and PopOS?) have their own software store apps that let you browse flathub apps with different features, but I haven’t noticed if they do what you’re looking for. What you’re asking for seems reasonable and useful though. I hope you find something that works.

Same here.

It sounds like it maybe has improved since you played, although I would be surprised if they haven’t always had weapons. I only started playing with build 41 though.

I find that the tutorial level that they include now teaches the core controls very well.

Cool!

Right, and I don’t even use Ctrl at all - I use the right mouse button instead, so to me it’s even simpler.

Interesting, I find the combat controls also very simple. In addition to the space bar I listed, I only use the left and right mouse buttons to aim and attack.

For example, if you go to the games category in Bazaar, it’ll say that there is 701 apps but it only shows 96. But now, if you go to the Flathub website, it’ll also say that there is 701 apps but there are 24 pages with 30 apps each.

Oh, wow, I didn’t realize that it did this, but I’ve barely used it yet. Yeah, that’s not good.

Edit: it seems that the most efficient approach would be to fix the Bazaar app or any other apps that show the Flathub catalog instead of writing something completely new.

Oh, I find that surprising. I’m a pretty casual game player but don’t find the controls too difficult. Maybe that’s because I take a pretty minimalist approach and don’t use most of them. A lot of the controls are optional and you can use the context menus by right-clicking the mouse instead.

From memory, because it’s been a little while since I played, this is what I commonly use, ordered by how frequently I use it:

• WASD - moving around the map
• Left / Right mouse buttons - aim and attack
• Space - shove/stomp
• C - crouch/sneak
• Esc - cancel action
• E - interact, but I believe in most cases you can use the context menus instead, like for opening doors, so I don’t use it a ton
• V - vehicle menu

I think that’s pretty much it.

Edit: added the mouse buttons, that I had left out from my original list, moved “C” down a couple of notches, and removed “shift” to run because I very rarely do that. We have the running zombies disabled on our games because they don’t seem very lore-accurate. The regular slow zombies you can keep at bay just by walking.

So 45% of the constituents, 22% of the representatives.

That’s not what that sentence is saying. Note the “party-affiliated” qualifier. I checked and according to the first search result I found 25% of Indiana voters are registered Democrat, 31% are registered Republican, and 44% are “unaffiliated”.

Some form of an app that will allow me to get the most out of Flathub. I know that I wont use every app that exists on Flathub but I would like to have some app that will allow me to at least see every app that’s available. I don’t care if it’s something as simple as just a list of every app in the order they were added, preferably sorted/sortable by oldest first and multiple pages to make it easier to find where I left off, or if it’s something more intricate, like a full app store experience with an app recommendation system that filters out apps I’ve already interacted with.

Have you looked at Bazaar? I don’t think it does everything you listed, but maybe some of it?

I don’t have any experience with any of this, but have you looked at Cockpit? It can manage VMs not only locally but also remotely, I believe.

@nyan had a similar request elsewhere in this thread and got a few suggestions. It seems that the KDE screen capture utility can do this.

We will be using an Atari joystick to control forward, reverse, left and right. The button is for dive (downwards)

For anyone who didn’t already know, Atari joysticks only had one button. Hehehehe.

I hear what you’re saying and you got a point because doing only the kind of analysis I did can sometimes be misleading; however, I think looking at relative growth instead of absolute is more informative in this case because it better illustrates a growth trend. The number of Linux PCs running Steam more than tripled in 5 years. I think that that is worth highlighting and I wanted to point it out to balance what the article had to say about Linux growth, which I really thought was minimizing how remarkable that growth is.

Thanks!

I’m not sure if this qualifies, but I have a friend who way back when, like decades ago, probably before the extensive surveillance we have now, would do something rather ingenious and devious to get major discounts on whatever expensive things he wanted at stores: he would print out a sheet of barcode stickers for a product that was similar but much cheaper than the one he wanted and plaster it on a bunch of the items like the one he wanted. Take it to the cashier and get a super discount.

For example, if he wanted some fancy model of an electronics gadget, he would print barcodes of a much cheaper but similar model from the same manufacturer. According to him, he had even done this for fancy cuts of meat. The reason for applying it to a bunch of them and not just the single one he planned to buy was for plausible deniability. If someone questioned him, he could say, I don’t know, I just picked one off the shelf - they could go check and see that there were many labeled as the cheaper item.

What is 4011? Like potatoes or something?

I see, you must not have heard the Kars 4 Kids commercials before. 10x more annoying than the little Living Spaces jingle. :)
