  • Some people feel very emotional about their workplace and fear that a change like this will ruin what they cherish the most. I think, in this case, the efforts were ruined by the company set up which made so many people not clearly eligible. The organizers were too conservative trying to avoid retaliation and only deal with individual cases…

    • this left the whole thing exposed to detractors who could freely engage and complain publicly, becoming the only visible voice
    • people who were not eligible felt betrayed or fear of being left out
    • people who were eligible may fear for the colleagues left out

    I think the organizers should’ve considered going “all in” and just consider either they form it or their job is done. In the end that was pretty much the result.

    Very interesting read though, thanks for sharing.



  • I had the same issue on my desktop PC with Steam. The issue was that it was unable to determine which GPU to use, so I had to create a shortcut for steam and edit as follows:

    [Desktop Entry]
    ...
    // Add the two lines below at the end of this section (omit this comment)
    PrefersNonDefaultGPU=false
    X-KDE-RunOnDiscreteGpu=true
    

    It seems KDE prefers using the integrated GPU for some reason.

    Edit: this only makes sense if your laptop has a discrete GPU, I assumed it because it says you have two of them.

    As for the game not running, sometimes it’s incompatible with the graphics API used, some engines allow you to override that with a “launch argument” defined from within Steam and force DirectX 11 or Vulkan. I don’t know the game so I don’t know if it’s this.

    Good luck!
