LOL he already called me an asshole.

I have been enjoying it. My wife is an aspiring artist and she gave me a bday card with an original painting as the front. Just amazing

Oh, right, I forgot to give Jack a birthday flame.

In other news: Fedora is great, Fedora is awesome, I'm ditching Fedora. lmfao

NEWSFLASH: NPR is countersuing Trump $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I'm sure their courtroom testimony will put the jury to sleep.

It seems like Linux is about to get very popular with the end of Windows 10 support

 

[HeadOn!]

It is. Microsoft stabbed themselves right in the dick.

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

And SteamOS has finally been released, so there's hope for games in Linux in the future

 

[HeadOn!]

Steam has supported Linux gaming for a while; they've been indispensable with the development of the Proton translation layer.

And NVIDIA is making Linux drivers again

 

[HeadOn!]

But, yeah, that's why I'm about to test-drive Bazzite -- it's basically a more mature community-driven variation on SteamOS.

I've been curious to see how well Windows 11 runs under Linux in VMware

 

[HeadOn!]

As in, it does all the same stuff; it's Fedora-based, whereas SteamOS is Arch-based.

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

I think it's time I start experimenting with Linux again

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

I don't use Arch btw

 

[HeadOn!]

Best time for it, what with W10 hitting EOL and W11 being basically a massive platform for ads and spyware.

I've got an older i7 4790 PC sitting in my home in the city

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

I need to get a video card for it and use it as my transition PC

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

But then I remember I play a game that's 100% dependent on Windows because it has intrusive anticheat LOL

 

[HeadOn!]

The impetus for switching away from Fedora is that, although it runs everything I want it to, Fallout New Vegas (modded) on stock Fedora is giving >24 frames per second. Barely playable, and combat is just not fun. On W11, I was getting well over 30FPS, which is way more doable.

 

[HeadOn!]

Yikes -- 4th gen i7... yeah, you're gonna need Linux for that.

 

[HeadOn!]

Which game is that?

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

Valorant

 

[HeadOn!]

I've never played that. Any good?

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

Windows 10 runs smoothly on that i7 with 16 Gb and a SSD

 

[THEONEANDONLYRANCIDMILKO™®©]

It's like Counter Strike, but you have characters with "superpowers"

 

[HeadOn!]

Huh. Wild.

 

[HeadOn!]

I guess that explains why the anti-cheat is a bugbear, then. I assume it's multiplayer-only?
