Bedbugs in executive offices is best. Make them feel the pain.

I moved to Linux Mint after a brief stint with Manjaro. I don’t prefer the Cinnamon interface, but gaming has been perfect. Bottles, allows me to install GOG Galaxy and the games run. I even modded Skyrim using a manual process and a ton of animation mods, that worked alright a lot of times with Vortex ( for the most part).

Linux can handle NTFS partitions, and just take a small line to fix if they are open during a crash. Flatpak software is really stable to install and keep installed.

I haven’t yet had a problem with steam games.

The only problem I have is with streaming services forcing Windows usage, so I got a VPN and raised the Jolly Roger to watch streaming services.

My 3080 plays games fine, and the few times it got a little slow I rebooted and it all worked fine. Discord calls and Twitch work fine. I even take my VA Online appointments with no issues.

It’s closer to going back to Windows 7 or XP, with a decent free office software.

They just want climate scientists to br like the tobacco studies scientists.

Your comment reminded me of the movie "Thank You for Smoking "

Especially a big problem for people who play on Steam Deck. Which most game companies don’t consider it a Console, which is stupid.

Google paying Mozilla for search placement is the same as Google paying Samsung and Apple for search priority on their phones.

It doesn’t mean that Google is backing Mozilla, Apple, and Samsung.

Mozilla has to take a much smaller cut compared to Apple because of their size, nothing else.

I hear you. I was looking more for Arch with less of a hassle. Something similar to my Steamdeck. I guess I should just wipe this weekend for something else. I really want something for playing my steam and GOG games that works with my Nvidia 3080.

Luckily for me I keep every game installed on different Steam Libraries so wiping my install drive to put something else in isn’t difficult.

I recently installed Manjaro. It works for my games right now

I remember taking that game home from school with a floppy disk to put on the home pc.

Yea same here. I have to sit in front of my AC and bringing in the groceries makes me overheat so much I have to use cold water and the AC to stop it.

I grew up in deserts like the Mojave and used to be able to work in 115 degrees. Now I can’t surpass 75 degrees.

Sorry to break it to you, but bypassing sections is a crime. You just proved his point. Sanctions are supposed to make life difficult for the people in sanctioned countries so that those people maybe start doing something to the person causing the problems.

It may be useful, but it was designed to facilitate criminal payments.

I’m glad I just setup Linux two weekends ago. It was simple to install all of my hardware worked well. I only miss a couple of minor features like the LED software and my overclocking software.

And those really aren’t that big of a deal since I haven’t had a failure to play a game so far.

It was at least 20 years since I tried Linux, and the changes are wild. I didn’t even choose a simple distro and haven’t even had too difficult of a time.

I just installed Manjaro over my windows 10 drive and the effort so far has been way easier than I thought.

KDE Plasma reminds me a lot of WIn 10, and nearly everything I did on my windows system works under Linux without hassle. The only issue I had were certain technical things like overlooking my GPU and setting up my LED lights.

Doesn’t matter if they walked it back. I’m now playing my games on Linux.

And wow it is just working.

I just installed Manjaro and it just worked with minimal issues. The issues that did come up, were easily fixed with building apps. If you aren’t an IT professional or up for tweaking things around there are easier distros, but I was surprised how much it was plug and play with gaming

Well I spent Sunday night installing Manjaro and so far so good. It’s been almost 30 years since the last time I used Linux, and KDE Plasma is really easy to use.

I decided to wipe my Win 10 drive so there was no going back. I was able to install and play games like normal, and I even used the command line to pull and build the Mullvad VPN App from the Arch store, and sign the app certificate.

The best part was once I setup the steam libraries Steam pulled all the information from those drives and all my games that weren’t on my Windows SSD were ready to go. All of my peripherals just worked and the Nvidia driver was fine.

I’m just missing some GOG Games, but Heroic should take care of that. Painless and simple.

It’s amazing how much has changed in over 20 years.

I am glad I waited on dual boot since the recent patch broke that. So, now I’m looking for a good way to just go all in without losing too much data.

I really just need a stable kernel with a decent UI that works with Gaming/Proton AMD CPU and Nvidia GPU.

The distro choices are too expansive and I haven’t had to start fresh in a new OS in 30 years.

All I know is they probably add a lot of textured vegetable protein to the mix to save money, since it comes in bags and isn’t made in-store.

I don’t trust their labels all too much because it’s all too even to be natural.

Yea. Taco Bell Seasoned meat has been a seasoned freeze-dried tofu and beef blend for decades now.

It’s sad that Taco Bell thinks it is gourmet Mexican Food now. Any local taco shop with Mexicans working in the kitchens will give you huge burritos for cheap. Without adding tofu to the ground beef.

They added some food-grade sawdust filler and cut out the majority of beef with their latest round of shrinkflation. Their regular patties are so small and thin that they’re impossible to stay moist in th burger. There’s no more fat left.
