It's a shame. As far as I remember, they stumbled once with trying out a pretty aggressive monetization during one of the betas a year or so ago, which was the last thing I've heard about it from a lot of people.

Don't know how that ended, but the game did look pretty cool.

That's exactly how I found out about this, I was really looking forward to that game.

I think I also saw it somewhere else, but don't remember what it was.

You are right, edited. I remember reading somewhere that they do hardware-based whitelisting, and that it was based on the screen's HW, but the point was that they can (and a lot of game unfortunately do) somehow whitelist Steamdeck only, while still not letting desktop Linux play.

Shadowrun kind of does the same. It's not really super-advanced, since it's cyberpunk, but it's cyberpunk with magic. And it's my favorite setting, it's such a cool idea.

It's even worse.

They are adding Linux support - but only if it detects you are running ~~the exact model of OLED screen as Steam Deck has~~ on SteamDeck, and blocks every other Linux device.

EDIT: There is some kind of hardware validation that can't be easily spoofed, I vaguely remember reading it was based on the screen HW, but that's beside the point.

Nope, thermostat (yes, that thing that has one "if temperature < XX, turn on heater) is literally considered an intelligent agent, as defined by the actual field of Artificial Intelligence, it's one of the first examples taught on the most basic of courses.

You should really go do your homework about absolute basics of AI field before insulting random people that at least have a semblance of knowledge about the field, other than "AI hype, AI cool".

People like you are insulting the whole field of Artificial Inteligence, so please stop spreading bullshit about it before you get good (or at the very least, don't be a dick about it, when people try to educate you). You probably had no idea the field even exists two years ago.

Literally yes. Thermostat (yes, the thing that turns your heater on if temperature is lower than XX) is considered an inteligent agent in the field of artifical inteligence.

The fact that you have a bunch of techbros who have no idea about what the field is about and are hyping the words because they sound cool changes nothing about it being a regular established academic field.

Oh boy, you have a lot to learn about what Artificial Intelligence actually means for people who have been in academia or gamedev for the past 20 years.

Didn't EU commission (or was it some kind of an expert group?) literally confirmed that yes, "Consent or Pay" is against the privacy laws and it should not work like that?

I was a Rider user ever since college, but canceled my subscription and I will be sticking to the perpetual license of a version that does not have AI bullshit. It crashes and eats memory, but since they are apparently focused on shoving AI into your face instead of actually improving the editor, it's not like it's going to change anytime soon.

You are right, it appears I have made a mistake. The error you mentioned would mean that indeed Github isn't dumb and AI is indeed useful.

Isn't this actually illeagal in the EU?
