    I pirate about 99% of the games i play until they go on sale for under $20. I dont think $70 for any game is fair, but i make an exception for doom games because they are my absolute favorites.

    For me personally its worth it, but i wouldn’t recommend it at full price to anyone who isnt a hardcore doom fan.





  • I tried it about a week ago but since i have zero interest in alternatives to systemd or gui tools I find its easy to just install something that uses the things i want by default.

    If you enjoy having that extea option and managing it with gui tools then im glad mx works for you, but it seems overcomplicated with no practical benefit to me.

    What can sysv do that systemd cant anyway?



  • Mx linux is a bad chioce if you cant answer this yourself because its going to differ from most other debian distros. You probably want to use normal debian or linux mint if you are still learning.

    To answer anyway; youll want to install lighttpd or similar server using apt, then firgure out the differences between sysvinit and systemd so you can properly configure the server to start.

    If you just use debian instead, “sudo apt install lighttpd” would be enough to get everything started.











  • I think it ultimately comes down to having to support another platform ads more work and risk then its worth.

    For example theyd have to convince people to essentially break androids walled garden which means valve has to make sure everything they offer for android isnt malicous. Then there is the fact that phones are different specs, more testing, potential customer support … Its a whole can of worms, but valve would gain little. There arent many people who want steam on their phones but dont already have it on pc.

    Vavle is good at what they do, they have basically cornered the PC and portable PC markets already, i think not mucking around in an already monopolistic mobile market is a pretty wise business decision on their part overall.
