Gnome get’s up and out of my way. 9/10.

When I read articles like this a Jimquisition episode starts playing in my head.

I saw in a recent Youtube video that between web services and AI, Windows licencing is only about 10% of Microslop’s business.

IDK if that number is true, but it sure would explain how much they’ve put into user experience. Does anyone use Windows because they like it?

This might not be feasible. IDK how you could install a whole OS, inside of another, without looking like a serious virus or malware. There are many files that cannot be changed while Windows is running (why it needs to reboot so often for updates). And no sane OS is going to let a program edit things like the MBR.

Competitive multiplayer games are lazy because they rely on other players to be the content. And they are perpetually vexed when their customer/ labor don’t perform their intended function.

Why is Linux different than Microsoft? Most of the games I play aren’t “Linux” games, but the identical Windows software running through a compatibility layer on Linux.

The Steam client on Linux has the same “workshop” tab for adding mods. It’s not in every game, but that’s true on Windows too.

Dead Cells is a wonderful game. And it runs natively on Linux

I had to switch to Linux because it wasn’t presented with any option besides Microsoft when I learned how to computer.

Subscription > point of sale. It’s way more profitable to be a landlord than a shop keeper. That’s why everything is subscription now.

do yourself a favor and search your laptop model with Linux install and you’ll get a good idea of what to expect. There are some vendors who don’t play nice with Linux.

There is no way to have a legacy Steam client that’s not maintained but still must authenticate users, transactions, and downloads.

No, $70 for the license to play a remake.

This is amazing news for anyone who games on Linux, whether you use Valve’s hardware or not.

Most of what I know about Trixie is that it was so easy to upgrade that the only configuration I had to fix was changing the clock back to 24hr time.

I LOVED figuring out the problems, even if I wanted to pull my hair out.

I recently dumped M$, and in my decision I expected the learning curve to be a downside, but what I’ve experienced is joy and accomplishment in learning new things.

I’d go further to say that learning Windows teaches you about Windows but learning Linux teaches you about computers.

The crazy thing about multiplayer games like this that the players are expected to provide the content and pay for the privilege. I wanna pay $70 to be an NPC in someone else’s game.

What’s good about these games? your playing other people.

What’s bad about these games? your playing other people.

Psensor is a graphical widget on top of lm_sensors that’s shows constantly updated temp/fan/usage info. It’s similar to HWMonitor on Windows.

For what it’s worth, I’d never heard of this game before.

I’m trying to imagine the user that both needs a text editor in the command line, yet is uncomfortable outside a gui.

I write scripts all day, but closing a program without clicking the little ‘x’ is scary and weird.

I’m rocking a GTX 1660 and have no plans to upgrade. Ray-tracing is a scam and all the “AAA” titles that are too vram hungry for my card are not that attractive anyway.
