American Truck Simulator!

It’s exactly what it sounds like. You drive a truck. You make deliveries. Beautiful scenery, relaxing drives, plus some challenge when it comes time to back up to the loading dock. It’s really chill and it’s awesome.

(There’s also Euro Truck Simulator 2 which is literally the exact same game but in Europe, if that’s more your thing.)

You can also tell Heroic “run a different executable than what the game says to”. Works fine.

Hell, you can even run PS2 games FROM DISC with pcsx2! Pop 'em into your desktop, hit play.

HDMI to composite adapter should have you covered (for the most part) connectionwise.

Actually, you’d be surprised! I thought all disc games still shipped with the game? You would be missing any patches, though.

We’ve bought a couple PS5-era PS4 games and they came on two discs.

Could be because of how hard Rust is being pushed.

Just like how Wayland is being pushed. And systemd is being pushed.

Alternatives to the Hotness™ are good. Programming language diversity is good.

Is C good? Well, it’s good at being simple to compile and at being low-level, but beyond that, nah not really. But is it better than Rust? IMO yeah. (But more for cultural reasons than for technical ones.)

Most coreutils stuff could honestly probably do really well written in Perl, too, with how string-processing-focused they are. String processing is like Perl’s whole schtick. Where’s our Perl coreutils implementation then!
