Maybe the best way to fix this shortfall is TO REMOVE DEI AND MAKE BETTER GAMES. Crazy, I know.. But just a thought.

Are they being ironic? Jfc

That's not how international taxation works.

I hate to disappoint you, but the EU and OECD had already dealt with it 10 years ago and it was fully phased out by 2020. Look at what happened to Meta and Google's domestic corporate tax numbers that year to get an illustration. It's expected to continue to shift in the coming years as companies are moving intellectual property to the US from Ireland.

Real bad time to be trying to get a new studio off the ground.

it's not like heaps of people are clamoring to use alternatives.

I wonder if there's a causal relationship there 🤔

This is not Gen AI, it's basic machine learning.

My money's still on Denuvo being the root cause.

In absolute terms, Boomers didn't get more conservative as they aged, they got more liberal. Just at a much slower rate than the younger generations.

There are tax efficiencies for them being here, but they actually have a sizeable staff presence too. Of all the tech companies in Dublin, they're the ones I'd most like the opportunity to work with.

And Valve and Steamdeck accounts.

Off topic, but I can't stand how F1 pundits overuse "punchy".

 

I've been running stock Fedora for about 5 years, but I'm really interested in immutable distros after putting Bazzite on my TV Gaming PC. Batteries-included works well for me in a use case like that.

I have about a decade of experience with containerisation, so leveraging that experience for my desktop is really appealing.

I took a look at Bluefin for my laptop, but it seems to be more opinionated than I'd like. I'm good with having an optimised kernel and tooling that makes sense for an immutable distro, but wasn't a huge fan of preconfigured Gnome extensions and the software I don't want.

I haven't tried Silverblue yet, but I plan to do that next. Vanilla OS is on my list too, but more out of curiosity in how it does things.

My questions are: should I be looking at any other distros? Do I need to shift my expectations of an immutable distro even more?
