Well if I only have time to play a game a month, I’m not gonna play a 6/10 game. I’m not saying to blindly trust metacritic but when you seldom play games you need to filter them aggressively somehow.

If you don’t have time to tinker maybe consider another distribution more suited to your needs. Waiting 5s for every action is not a time effective solution.

But don’t Razer products actually have a decent support on Linux?

Mate you need to debug your machine, that is not normal behaviour. I have endeavour on an old laptop and everything is fast.

The problem with that logic is that this failure was not caused by Microsoft, it was caused by ClownStrike. Their software works on Windows and Linux (not sure about Mac) and they fucked up the linux software a few weeks before the Microsoft incident.

Even if Linux had more market share in the affected endpoints they would still have been affected, just on different timelines I guess.

You don’t own steam games tho.

Thanks a lot for pointing it out, next time I’ll just look for that toggle and save myself th trouble!

Last week I installed Windows 11 on a new laptop that came with FreeDOS installed. It was a really dreadful experience, I never thought it was this bad.

• The windows 11 installer couldn’t find any hhd partitions or hard drive, while FreeDOS could. After googling for a while I had to download an Intel Rapid Something driver from the manufacturer’s website and load it up when installing windows 11.

• After installing Windows it required an internet connection to proceed but I assume the wi-fi drivers were not installed. USB tethering didn’t seem to be working either so I had to continue the setup elsewhere, where I had physical access to the router.

• I had to skip a lot of things throughout the installer, which kinda shocked me. Office 365 and even games, before I even booted the actual OS.

• Fully updating Windows took 2 hours. Fresh ISO, gigabit Ethernet connection, nvme HDD. Damn.

Pretty miserable experience and completely impossible to an unexperienced user.

The main problem is the amount of REALLY bad games. It’s very hard to find decent games, most of them are intentionally unplayable garbage.

I fear becoming that guy, can you call me out if I do? Cheers.

I really enjoyed hacknet, is this similar? :O

No, but I also don’t want to only have 2GB XD

Can you even run Windows with just 2gb?

The great thing about Linux is that there are options for everyone.

Want an OS with a full desktop installed? We got you.

Want an OS with almost nothing installed where you can make every single decision? We got you.

Want to build the OS entirely from scratch? We got you.

There’s an option for everyone and that’s cool. Don’t be mad about having a choice.

I wish it was more popular so more job offers would pop up :P

So? If a Java dev wants to learn Rust, they’ll make it. There are a lot of burned out Java devs wanting to move to something that feels new and exciting again.

What’s so surprising about that?

It took a bit more than usual but nothing unreasonable. 3 to 5 minutes at most, in an old MacBook pro.

I heard this so many times that I really believed arch was so brittle that my system would become unbootable if I went on vacation. Turns out updating it after 6 months went perfectly fine.
