The trailer almost makes me want a switch 2, but hey! Its also on PC and on sale for 15 bucks on steam right now too.

(There’s also a free demo)

I’m running popOS! With an geForce 3080 and so far it seems to be working. Ymmv

Yeah I’m thinking bout trying something new because Nvidia just put out new drives to fix a security issue but mint hasn’t seemed to update the driver manager.

That’s a fair point, linux has gotten a lot better with stuff ‘just working’ but when it doesn’t, it requires some research and tinkering.

I was figuring something out the other day and it dawned on me that the reason I’ve become so enamored with linux is that it’s a hit of nostalgia from getting things working in the 90s. (Also I’m a nerd and I think the way computers work is fascinating lol)

Oh man i love Arx Fatalis, have you seen Monomyth? It’s basically a love letter to Arx

Without having tried that setting myself, I’m assuming that you have to keep moving the mouse to scroll, instead of just slightly moving the mouse once in a direction.

I’m at work so I can’t really watch a video about this…but I don’t think I’ve had a problem running any recent game at all. The only one that comes to mind was the beta for monster hunter wilds, and I think that was sort of it’s own thing because the game was a mess for windows users too.

Also the new Derail Valley update is awesome and they’re working with valve to make it work even better on the steam deck.

I think it’s advertising for a custom domain service kinda like geocities or angelfire used to be. It’s also apparently free with the caveat that they will constantly try to upsell you on packages, and it will eventually not be free.

I started with mint cinnamon and then tried out bazzite and nobara but they both gave me issues so I’m back to mint because it really does “just work”

My server is running mint currently, but I’m going to switch to fedora at some point soon. Mostly because I have to deal with RHEL at work and I’d like to better familiarize myself with it.

I’ve only really messed with VMs running in linux and I know video acceleration can be an issue. Do VMs running on windows have an easier time of setting up GPU passthrough?

Bazzite is immutable, it worked generally okay for me but I swapped back to mint because I had to use a smart card reader and getting it to work on an immutable was a royal pain

I imagine this would work out to be something similar to redhat enterprise linux, but with the EU funding it’s development instead of the US

Y’know…cosmic horror, existential dread. What’s out in the dark between the stars and why can’t I smell my skin?

That’s sort of horrifying in a cosmic way.

They did Microsoft in the 90s and nothing really changed

Wait, the three mile island thing wasn’t a joke?

I tried bazzite and nobara which are both the big gaming distros. Bazzite worked the best but I had a ton of just weird little issues with stuff randomly not working unless I restarted it. I don’t have much to say about nobara because I couldn’t actually get steam to work for some reason.

I went back to mint and honestly it’s been the smoothest and easiest to use distro, plus it has a larger user base so it’s easier to find help.

Even Google maps does this! I accidentally drove 45 minutes out of the way because I clicked the first result because of course that should be the closest store. Google can fuck right off with these sponsored results

Yeah…I was dual booting to test mint, then accidentally wiped my windows drive when I tried out bazzite and went ‘welp, guess this is my life now’ and haven’t gone back to windows lol

My computers at work are on win 11 and good god, almost every time I log in I have to reset all my Taskbar setting (left instead of goddam CENTER, minimize the search bar, unpin the bullshit, only combine when full) and the most egregious issue of all is win11 doesn’t let you reposition the task bar anymore!
