Here is a controversy that is still raging in theological circles... The nature of free will. Does it exist? Augustine knew that it does exist. I agree with that, as I sense that it is a part of the image of God, it is where our personal sovereignty resides. I’m not going to go deeper into that today, but if it exists, and can be corrupted, then we need to be aware of that. It cannot truly be said to be free, if it cannot be influenced in one way or the other, whether for good or evil.

FFW 20.2: SteamOS 3.4 Preview Released

Resident Evil 4 is now playable again, due to a fixed regression. Good on Valve and Steam for listening to their users and rolling fixes quickly.

FFW 20.3: Steam Continues Updating Old Games for Linux

Half Life 2, Portal, Portal 2, and Left 4 Dead 2 all get DXVK 2.0 support, enabling better native Linux performance, benefiting from that bump provided by the new version of DXVK I talked about last week. Anyone still play these classic titles? Tell me about it below.
