I still don’t understand why this is even a thing. Some of the games that used it in Mario party reminded me of the fucking ps2 eye toy! What would make more sense, is if they had some functionality to connect a smartphone camera to the switch 2, and use that instead. Maybe sell the piranha plant as some kind of mount for the smartphone.

Inb4 the “AI” is revealed to be an Indian

Okay, both of y’all are wrong on this one.

“Ai firms”

Procedural generation isn’t related to generative AI, as stated in the description. Daggerfall, released in 1996, used procedural generation to generate it’s dungeons and world map. It has continued to be used since, in games such as No Mans Sky, Minecraft, Valheim, and many more.

“Not the developers and employees whose “man hours” they’re “reducing””

I’m not even sure why this would be a bad thing given that developers are overworked, unless you’re thinking they’re going to use this technology to replace developers, but that isn’t happening. It streamlines the creation process so that developers aren’t creating literally every blade of grass or bush manually. For example if you created a patch of grass X size, the generation will automatically add some flowers or some such. If anything, this probably gives developers MORE work, because now that this process is streamlined, they’ll be expected to do even more. Hope this clears things up, procedural generation is a good tool when used correctly!#

Eight dollars a month for fucking “premium-lite” is insane.

I have a 2060 super, I’m on nobara 41 kde with no issues. Tbh, this might just be a gnome issue, but you might just be unlucky.

Im ngl, I feel like its posts like these that make people dislike Linux users. Expecting every game that you own to run perfectly isn’t some insane requirement, its totally reasonable lol. I get that its kinda frustrating people won’t ever switch, but lets be real, the only way Linux is actually going to gain new users is by having it come pre-installed on devices. Look at the increased Linux use because it’s the default OS on the steamdeck. It just needs to be the default on more devices, and be solid enough that people don’t even notice they’re not on Windows. The amount of people who will actually go out of there way to switch their OS is so negligible it may as well not even count. So who cares about these people who will never switch, because they probably won’t matter much in the end anyway.

–And I say this as someone who has been on Linux full time for a little over a year now.

I’m not exactly sure whether or not this is good, but my gut feeling is that this sounds like it will very quickly become very annoying permission hell.

As someone who dual booted, I agree, don’t bother. If you’ve got any important files, back em up to a cloud or something, and wipe. Dual booting gave me so many issues, and eventually I broke my windows install somehow anyway. Just go with a full wipe, it’ll save you a Lotta trouble.

Bro when is gaming gonna get over this idea that the ONLY way to block cheaters is with some kernel level spyware. Its fucking ridiculous dog

Yea.

For me the straw that broke the camels back was the fucking updates. I got so tired of Windows forcing updates, and I never could get the registry edits to disable it to stick. Besides, you shouldn’t have to EDIT THE REGISTRY to just turn off updates! But there’s also stuff I’d really miss if I went back (I’ve been on Nobara for a year now) like the package management on Linux. I love that I can choose to update on MY terms, and that almost everything updates during the process. I have a few random jar apps for Switch hacking stuff, and an appimage for R2Modman, but besides that I don’t have to worry about needing to download the latest version of shit all the time. AND, having most of what you need just available on a software store is so nice. Never mind that its so much safer to not have to download random .exe’s from all over the internet. These days the only thing I actually struggle with is modding certain games. Like BG3 took me awhile, but then I found out there’s a Linux mod manager called lampray and it works perfectly. Then there’s also the fact you have to know how to do DLL overrides for things like bepinex or anything that adds some kind of DLL. But otherwise, it just works and infuriates me less than windoze

If you liked Debian, definitely Pop as it’s basically Debian but with easier to install nvidia drivers. But also if you liked using Fedora, I’d consider Nobara, it’s a distro maintained by a Redhat engineer and has an nvidia image like Pop OS. Stay tf away from Manjaro, you might wanna look into EndeavorOS if you want Arch for gaming

Definitely time to just use debian, mint MX, or pop os even. I did a lot of hopping though and I’ve settled on Nobara KDE. Mint was great but the Bluetooth was finicky for some reason, and debian is mostly just ubuntu with some gui stuff removed. PopOS is basically just debian until COSMIC but still good too.

I can taste the usable wayland experience on Nvidia!

Wasn’t there also something related to Yuzu that needed this to be upped for certain games too?

God I fucking hope so man. I’m so tired of Nvidia not working on Wayland properly. It’ll be so nice to have VRR and gSync on Wayland without the awful flickering.

The nvidia 545 drivers are an absolute dumpster fire. Even for beta drivers they are easily the worst drivers I’ve ever used. They claim to fix the vrr gsync bug tho… so as soon as they fix gestures broadly everything else, maybe they’ll be good

Really recommend mint, or ubuntu. Please for the love of god stay away from arch and all of it’s derivatives, or at least try Ubuntu/Mint first. Also do NOT use manjaro it sucks, it is not maintained well at all

Did you fill it up using the FOSSit?
