The periodic sale is already driving up the consumerism enough for me, I really don’t need to buy more games, but I want to

EddoWagt@feddit.nlto Gaming@beehaw.org•Former PlayStation exec says "$70 or $80" games are a "steal": "As long as people choose carefully how they spend their money, I don't think they should be complaining"11·2 months agoYou can’t just scale game prices linearly with inflation, sure costs of development have increased, not just because of inflation but also because games are much more complex now. But the gaming market has grown a lot and games are infinitely reproducible so that hugely increases profits.
I don’t know how much we should pay for games, but just comparing it to inflation is useless

EddoWagt@feddit.nlto Games@lemmy.world•Quantum mechanics might have the solution to joystick driftEnglish5·3 months agoIs accuracy or size even an issue with hall effect sensors? Hall effect sensors can have plenty of resolution and can also be small, the PSVita 1000 had hall effect sensors and those are smaller than the switch joycons
EddoWagt@feddit.nlto Games@lemmy.world•Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2?English14·3 months agoThe Ally, Legion, Claw and Win 4 are all more expensive than the Steam Deck. The Odin 2 and Pocket 5 are not, but they don’t run steam, so you can definitely not play all the same games as the steam deck
Seems like a pretty valid justification?
Don’t forget the mouse feature in the joycons!

Yeah that’s why I’d just pick one of the big ones, narrows the choice way down. Most smaller distros are just customised versions of the bigger ones anyways.
And yeah I don’t think that what you’re looking for really exists for a desktop, a virtual machine or dual boot is your best bet for now
EddoWagt@feddit.nlto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Proton Experimental adds fixes for GTA V Enhanced and more for Linux / Steam DeckEnglish6·4 months agoI wouldn’t recommend a random distro like the other user to be honest. Especially when you’re still kind of new to linux. Stick to the big ones; Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, Fedora, maybe PopOS. Its just easier to find support if you do run into issues.
Fedora has been really stable for me, so I would recommend that personally. Nvidia drivers are easy enough to install on all of them I think.
You might want to try running windows in a virtual machine to run Photoshop, although performance might be lacking. Using a second GPU to pass through to the VM is an option if you’re up for that
Progress just has been painfully slow. It just now got the update it should’ve had back then
Same, I just really want the automatic playlists feature, but no other music players that look nice on gnome seem to have that. Pretty much all newish players are so minimal
That feels like a wild overgeneralisation although I’m also a Linux loving nerd who would like to move to Japan
What does Japan have to do with this?

EddoWagt@feddit.nlto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Linux is now FASTER than Windows!! Linux vs Windows - 2025 Gaming benchmarksEnglish1·5 months agoI would personally recommend the base distros and I am a big fan of Fedora myself. Has been rock solid for the last 4 years or so. Although you’ll have to choose a desktop environment as well. I use gnome, which imo just looks and feels really good, although it’s not as easy to customise. You can also pick KDE, which looks more like windows by default but you have so many settings it’s a bit too much imo.
You can always change the desktop later if you really want to, so pick whatever you think you’ll like best
