Finally!!! Playnite was amazing when I used to be on Windows. Unfortunately no Linux tool yet has the extendability and usefulness Playnite has. Looking forward to seeing this on Linux eventually. It really is amazing for unifying game libraries and has decent almost Steam Big Picture-like skins too.

I’d dabbled with Linux and multiple distros in the past and while I liked what I saw I had my frustrations. Various distros had their pros and cons and I wasn’t as technically capable back then.

After Windows 11’s unnecessary launch I gave Windows 10 LTSC a try. I don’t think it was LTSC specific but my experience was buggy as hell and would BSOD every other day. So I thought I’d force myself to use Linux and have used Arch or other flavors of Arch ever since. No sink or swim, I was just going to live with it and not deal with Microsoft’s bullshit anymore.

Nothing closed source or FOSS really comes close. Heres to hoping with it being axed well finally see a FOSS launcher like it eventually.

Also use dust. Great for visualizing directory trees of where all the bigger files lie.

Fuck Google and fuck the bureaucracy of the U.S. Of course they’d rule to not split Google in the face of them killing sideloading.

My experience too with Linux on phones so far. Really, really want freedom of choice and to be free from Android. It isn’t a real choice if I want a social life and a phone that isn’t a brick.

Really disappointed. Was gearing up to be a more complete game than Minecraft was. Could’ve been mod friendly out the gate too.

The silver lining is they didn’t steal people’s money with empty promises like TUG.

I’ve set up the sync server but it is definitely a pain in the ass.

Nothing about this gen is high-end, they killed the high-end lineup so these could be more successful mid-range cards.

Lol, the cool thing is you don’t have to use flatpak. If there’s only a flatpak you could package it yourself. Flatpak has way more benefits than just being boiled down to GUI first…

I’m happy to call names if what I see literally falls under the definition of elitist.

Good, the cool thing is that distros for newbies or power users exist. They just want utilities making these actions more accessible. Being elitist serves no one in the long run.

Por que no los dos? They’d definitely use this capability to do both.

No. I’m not clueless or surprised. Just disappointed that we’re stooping to using AI bots to sow discord like Russia is doing.

Jesus, even before I read the article it read like the U.S wants to emulate disinformation campaigns others are using. The irony of three letter agencies condemning AI campaigns while the Pentagon is going “We want that”, is insane but its to be expected I guess.

I use Alpine Linux. It’s exceptionally stable, great for pretty much any device and is best for small VPS with limited space/ram. Nice package manager too, but it is limited in packages.

It works great for me since I only use docker containers, but some things outside docker may require something like Debian instead.

I use Arkane Linux, which is based on Arch but is immutable. Every update is a new install. You can easily configure custom images to deploy for your specific wants or needs. It’s nice for keeping up to date with Arch while keeping how my machine is configured declared in an image. You can always roll back if something was wrong with the image you deployed too.

If you’re running the most recent kernel, I’d recommend moving to linux-lts. I have slightly similar specs, KDE Wayland, 6900 xt and 5800, and I had issues with games straight up crashing out my PC on the latest kernel.

If they get their hands on an LTSC ISO they can hold out on Windows 10 a little longer.

Intel gave more detail to Tom’s Hardware and they updated the article up top. This still sounds a little disingenuous to me, like they’re still trying to minimize the issue with words and no action.

Gamer’s Nexus has a recent video with some possible explanations.

It’s a known issue with tailscale. It drains my battery pretty bad as well. I had to opt for wireguard for remote access instead.
