Maybe cats in general don't understand pointing, but both of my cats do. One of them is quite intelligent, so I'm not surprised there, but even the stupid (but adorable) one gets it.

I'm curious, isn't something like a HUD a perfect thing to render in a DOM overlay? It shouldn't matter that much if it takes a few frames to layout and/or update your ammo count or whatever.

Steam does it much, much better. GoG ostensibly cared about Linux in the beginning, but by now it's very clear that they don't. It's their choice of course, and among all the alternatives to Steam I guess they're the bes

Sure, but Valve has done a lot for the Linux gaming ecosystem. It also goes deeper than just Linux, and the Steam Deck is a perfect example of this. It's a real PC, and they allow you to use the device you bought as you wish. Our incen

You are incorrect. Blink might be a fork of WebKit (which in turn is a fork of KHTML), but they are definitely not the same; WebKit is generally inferior. Thankfully, the EU is forcing Apple's hands, and soon we'll see better brow

Where I work, we consider URLs part of the UI. Users should be able to share links with each other without pasting a wall of text. We also try to make all URLs human parsable so that they know what they are sharing.
