Just a dude doing internet things
I wouldn’t advertise on the premise that Windows is a horrible, privacy invasive OS. Even though it’s true that would easily be grounds for Windows to claim defamation and pummel the entire thing into the ground with legal fees
Yeah that is wild. Back on windows I had a three monitor setup at one point and honestly rarely utilized the whole of it.
Ever since moving to Linux and learning about virtual desktops I have never felt the need for more than one monitor. So I could hardly imagine the need for seven beyond novelty lol.
Because they can as well as being fun and novel to try and beat the game in weird, unintuitive ways? There are challenge runs similar to this* in Minecraft that get super popular all the time.
Similar in a conceptual sense, I’ve no idea the relative difficulty of these two different games nor the differing challenges offered in playing these way
Awesome, I will look more into that!
Any modern distro.
There are GUI methods for adding repositories to every major software center to my knowledge, and it isn’t very hard.
Kate, and other modern file editors are more than equipped to handle some config files, that’s probably the simplest thing ever.
There are multiple GUI front ends for samba.
Don’t comment on the usability of Linux GUI if you haven’t even tried in the last 20 years like seriously
It is for the sake of combatting the commonly held belief that you can’t do anything without the terminal in Linux.
Progress on the accessiblility, and GUI centric applications and functionality in Linux has been huge in the last decade or two. It is now entirely possible to use a Linux system while rarely needing the terminal. And if you have someone techy helping set it up for you then it is possible to never have to.
This makes a lot of sense, though I can’t help but think about the fact that all these distros were once brand new projects that people had to go out on a limb and try out before they became what they are today.
Though I also guess these projects had more official dedicated support.
In any case, I won’t be the one going out on a limb for a while now lmao
I reckon if I go about trying to game again I will just go ahead and rebase to bazzite. Seems the easiest route
Rebasing is easily one of the coolest features of the atomic suite. I will definitely look into bazzite more in the future, just wish I knew about it before all this lmao
Yeah that’s why I put it in quotes, it just kept popping up when I searched for distros more inclined towards gaming lol.
Yeah I didn’t know about bazzite before going about this whole thing, but I am not going to try gaming on my system until nvk becomes more capable. Even then only light work.
I’m not necessarily a begginer as I have been using Linux for a few years now, but arch is definitely out of my wheelhouse
The thing that kept me attached to VR was Echo. Guess what they did to one of my literal favorite games
Something I think is interesting is that, in order for companies to adopt these better non ad reliant models, they would have to dramatically scale down.
In a climate where ad and clicks = revenue, your solution is to scale as large as you can and pump out content to maximize views. But that wouldn’t work under normal models
I didn’t quite figure out the issue. It seemed to be a problem with directx, and I wasn’t certain how to proceed. I chose to uninstall the nvidia drivers and proceed, for the time, with integrated graphics on my Intel chip until NVK ships with fedora 40
Good, use them for something worthwhile.
It is dystopian really the nature of shuffling hundreds or thousands of people to a building, into a cubicle, in front of a computer for 8 hours a day.
This is awesome! I don’t use the dedicated GPU on my laptop for anything outside light gaming, so I will definitely be switching to this as soon as it is available for Fedora
You would still have to develop good biking infrastructure.
Also, what if people aren’t physically able to take the roughness that can come with riding a bike/scooter (I ride my bike as my main form of transportation and bad roads can be really aggressive) In that case you would also want to throw in a good transit system people could reliably use and get to places at a reasonable time (my local transit system is so bad that it would take an hour and a half to get to school, whereas it takes about 40 minutes by bike)
And at the end of the day, supporting a multitude of different transport methods from walking to high speed rail is beneficial for everyone regardless of thale situation we end up in.
I am actively convinced that the boomer generation, and a chunk of the gen x gen, all had their development heavily and substantially impacted by the egregious use of lead throughout america, plus the waves of radiation that wafted over half of the country because of nuclear testing
You know what? I agree with that.
I was taking my personal opinion and applying that at large, and forgot it was early access. A bit short sighted of me.
I hope the game has a bright future, even if it may not appeal to me.
Yeah, the game’s popularity comes directly from it’s gimmicky nature and not from any actual good gameplay loop. Not a single idea, mechanic, or even item is original.
I played for two days with friends and got over it. And I imagine for many, once the appeal of the gimmick wears thin, it’s all and over with
Yeah those are the steps I followed.
I have used bazzite before and it worked well, I just recently reinstalled fedora after using Windows for a month or so (Thought I would need it for class, but my teacher is okay with us doing our work on Linux so yay)
I will probably just rebase than
