It's not a shooter, but Enshrouded is insanely fun and you can play with up to 16 people at once.

I usually just browse [https://flathub.org/]. I've found more than a few great projects this way.

If the sheer scope and imagination of No Man's Sky is any indication, this game is going to be every bit as ground-breaking and something truly special. I cannot wait. I just can't. :)

Baldur's Gate 3 is absolutely fantastic. You owe it to yourself to play this game.

No Man's Sky works great on Linux Mint. I've been playing it for a few years via Steam with Proton. Runs flawlessly on my system. Definitely worth checking out proton.db to see if there are any tweaks you may need to make, though. Enjoy! It's a fantastic game!

There are several looking-for-group websites out there, but I've honestly never had much luck with them. I think your good old FLGS is still the best place to find players and games. Barring that, there's always the Roll20 forums.

I use SimpleX for all private communications. Best secure messenger out there, imho.

I've toyed with the idea of converting Shadowrun to Monte Cook's Cypher System. Wonder how that might work... strokes beard

I absolutely love the setting of Shadowrun, but have never had the opportunity to play. As for running a game myself, I've heard a lot of horror stories about how crunchy and complicated the system is, and that has been enough to keep me from trying to run a game myself. :P

I certainly think so. No ads, more fair to the artists, you can purchase whatever you like...I'd pick Bandcamp over Spotify any day of the week, personally.

I've used it. It works great! Shuffle mode isn't quite as varied as I'd like, but beyond that, it's a really great music player.

Yeeeeaah....I'm done with D&D and WotC. As is most often the case, when a thing I like becomes a giant megacorporation they start doing shitty things to the people that got them there in the first place. TTRPGs are a truly vast hobby, and I see no reason to give my support and business to a company willing to fuck over it's fanbase to make extra money - not when there are so many other great games/companies to support.

An important point to make before people panic too much: You can still use your books and play your games. This doesn't effect players so much as it effects publishers. Your Saturday night game won't be affected at all.

Paizo/Pathfinder, to my knowledge, relies very heavily on the OGL. So, if they want to continue to publish materials, they're going to have to agree to the new OGL. Which no sane publisher would agree to, so.....
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I was hoping that the desktop version and the mobile version would be able to sync messages between users without having to create multiple accounts. Is this even possible with SimpleX's current architecture? Aside from all that, I'm really liking SimpleX - clean, simple and SECURE!! =)

Just discovered this duo a couple of days ago, and can't get their music out of my head. Kind of a throwback to 90's alternative with a great sound. Check them out and give them some love! :)
You know, it's funny. I can remember a conversation between two elderly people that I overheard probably 30 years ago while riding a city bus. I don't recall the topic of the conversation, but one of the people made a statement that has always stuck with me. *"Everyone keeps making money the most important thing and pretty soon, money will be the most important thing."* That statement has always been in the back of my mind, reminding me that I'm supposed to care about people more than things, relationships more than influence and compassion more than personal benefit. It's a way of thinking that I always took for granted. People are smart, everyone wants to be kind and compassionate, don't they? I mean, who wakes up in the morning and decides that they're going to be selfish and oblivious? Fast forward 30 years to today. Marketing and the marketing mindset has so insidiously infiltrated the public psyche that we don't even notice it. Social media, instead of being the place to FREELY share knowledge and ideas in the spirit of community that was promised, has instead become a shopping mall of human psychosis. *"Check out my content stream!"* *"You have GOT to see my next video - here's a link to my patreon so you can fund it!"* *"I have a website with lots of useful information that can help lots of people - and for $20 a month, you can have access!"* *"Like what I'm wearing in this picture? It's for sale!"* Obviously, there are exceptions to this. There always will be (I hope), but late-stage capitalism and consumerism certainly seem the order of the day. It wasn't always like this. At least I certainly don't remember it ever being like this before. Somewhere along the line, we became conditioned to market and brand ourselves. Somewhere along the line, everything went up for sale and if your idea, knowledge or resource was freely available, someone would come along and - after a few slight tweaks - slap a price tag on it and call it their own. I suppose there are those (most?) who will say that I'm just 'crying because it's raining'. Maybe I am. Maybe I'm just whining and wishing for an ideal that will never manifest. But I still can't get what that elderly person said out of my head.
They tell you that you're unskilled, even though learning how to do your job requires training. They tell you that you're uneducated, even though everyone has something to teach. They tell you that you're essential, but unaffordable. They tell you that you have a voice, but you should keep quiet. They tell you that your opinion matters, so long as it lines up with theirs. They tell you if you work hard, you'll have just as much as they have - but not yet, just keep working. They tell you that if you pray harder, you'll be blessed with prosperity - but not yet, just keep praying. And working. They tell you so many things; they want you to believe so many things. But mostly, they want you to believe one thing above all else - that you need them. You don't. ***Rise up.***

The Capitalist model of commodifying absolutely everything is abusive, pathological and destructive. We've got to stop this before it kills us.
Yet another example of how reformist lesser-evilism undermines workers and the cause for Socialism in the US.
