Can confirm, I helped a friend put Fedora on their old laptop to give it life again. Even though I wrote them instructions, once it came time for the terminal stuff, they video called me, lol. They love using that laptop now, though! They were in their early 20s for reference.

The new Orange Patrons voice and music is epic as hell!

Anecdotal: but it plays just fine for me. FPS dips down when holding Tab mid match, but that’s it. Could be a Proton thing, though.

But, I have seen a team mate first land on the ground for match start and they were hard stuck in the ground, and had to ask enemies to kill them. And another couldn’t use the zipline for a minute or 2, but that might have been a keybind issue.

The new base Patrons, music, voice acting for base Patrons, and further adding more detail to the map are fantastic, though! This game’s sense of style is becoming really, really good.

The moment Game Pass wouldn’t let me cheese the system and get it for like $1-2 a month, I quit bothering with it. I knew they were trying to get people hooked and raise prices. It was only like a year later and then even my friends canceled theirs.

I buy games heavily on sale, or sail the seas.

Luckily my gaming PC is more than good enough to ride out the next 5 years. knocks on wood. 5800X3D + 6800 XT.

For anyone else cross your fingers the GabeCube isn’t too expensive $$$.

This meme is some low effort rage bait, .ml Lemmy slop, but Jorjor Well legit got me good.

Bready White.

It’s because it has mmo-like mechanics. They said it’s because they don’t want someone to cheat and ruin things like global orders to free a planet. Ex: someone can cheat and clear missions wayyy faster and overly contribute to if a planet tbat the entire community is working towards liberating from the filthy Terminids.

If Valve can make wireless vr AND fix windows only anticheat, both next year, I’m going to be 10 different kinds of happy. I would love to basically never need my W11 SSD ever again.

For the most part it runs better than it does on my W11 install. I can even force a 7000 series FSR4 on my 6800XT.

CachyOS using their native proton.

Just had a funny thought of a tech bro with the Arch based EV, deciding to install Manjaro instead, and breaking their EV after a bad update.

In case you haven’t tried, the 2 biggest “vr hacks” for motion sickness are:

Have a small circular rug that’s a different texture than the ground its on, so you can feel when you step off of it.

And have a single, small, directional fan aimed at you (not overhead.)

Those 2 help keep you grounded and oriented without taking you out of immersion.

But, some games just suck and the locomotion isn’t smooth, and can’t be saved.

Don’t forget quite possibly the worst UI ever conceived for a PC game.

That works, too! 😂

I don’t know if 10 in general will stop getting Win NT updates, though?

Not everyone is going to want to switch to Linux just yet, and that’s OK. For those people, this is as good as it gets for Windows.

1. It is still a fully fledged x86-64 Windows. You can install literally any program designed to work on Windows, legacy or not.

2. It is still Windows, only they have stripped out everything non essential for reliability for high uptime, think ATM machines. This would be like saying Gentoo or Arch isn’t designed to be used on home PCs.

3. You can install the MS App Store and Xbox app, and others should you want to. It just doesn’t come with them. I have switched all my friends to this Windows and half of them use it with Xbox Games Pass, and one like the ease of getting everything from the MS App Store.

4. The common person might not want to use Linux for any number of reasons. This is as good as it can get for those who do not want to switch. Not wanting to switch is fine, and shouldn’t be shamed.

5. For privacy since it’s an Enterprise version, you can disable all built in telemetry. It just takes some entries in things like group policy and registry editor.

My version numbers on 11 IoT seem to be bleeding edge for core fuctioning. It’s PERFECT for PC gaming, honestly. No Xbox, no gamebar, no AI, no shit getting installed after new updates.

The no license legally is why I linked massgrave. Permanent hardware activation. If they wont sell the license for the only good current Windows, then fuck them.

People are huffing massive hopium if they think that 343, of all studios, is going to put out an UE5 game that isn’t unoptimized trash.

Edit: doesnt seem to be 343 anymore!

Edit edit: apparently still 343 lol.

Avoid all this with W11 IoT Enterprise LTSC

I used to use X-lite awhile ago, but have since swapped to w11 IoT Enterprise LTSC. You can disable all the Windows telemetry since it’s an Enterprise variant. It’s honestly the only way to make modern Windows a solid and good experience. A fresh install will feel almost exactly like how a fresh install of XP/7 used to. It comes with Edge + Defender, that’s it. No Xbox nor AI nor bloat like Candy Crush.

I seriously cannot recommend it enough.

Regardless, also using StartAllBack is like the cherry on top.
