It might not be, there could be fixes out there that weren’t included. Idk I dont have one so I can’t say.

Distro wars is because every time someone does something linux related 99% of the comments are you should have used X distro. I thought it was good they included that section. Remember this isnt aimed at linux users its for PC gamers unfamiliar with linux.

Its a blog and thats just the blurred background because its a meme.

Lets talk linux gaming optimization. For them its probably best to take a distro like cachyOS out the box. The game should run inside gamescope with the desktop environment killed Feral gamemode enabled. Minimal services running in the background. I dont think they should go full HPC engineer (although that would be sick) but linux is all about taking full control of your software and hardware and pushing whats possible.

I got that same error when I was setting up my account.

I dont trust myself not to get locked out somehow.

Its supposed to but doesnt.

Lenovo recently started shipping laptops with Linux at a discount. But its probably better to buy a laptop from a Linux seller so that you know the hardware compatibility is being maintained.

“What can we do to improve society, I know I’ll watch some dystopian SciFi for ideas” - the UK government probably

This is really good for the average gamer trying out linux. I’ve seen so many “I switched to linux” videos where the person is unable to screenshare.

The single slackware gamer. His entire library is games from the 90s

Can I do like rpm-ostree install firefox and have firefox install? I dont mind if the command is different i just want to make sure system packages can still be installed

I put this on their computer im getting beaten up the second they boot.

Can I still install fedora repo packages? Using dnf?

Someone is going to smash the sensor day 1.

Its so over

Does minetest have factory mods like industrial craft and thermal expansion?

No one said we need to play roblox on linux. We WANT to play roblox on Linux because its our computer and we want the freedom to play what we choose and not be arbitrarily limited by an asshole game studio.

Are the custom maps good?

When we get full VR simulations the first thing I’m going to do is fight monkeys from small to large to see whats the biggest monkey I can beat in a fight. People say you can’t fight the money half your size but I think I can take them.

Time to try and convince my friends to buy parkitect for the millionth time.

If it doesn’t work I try a few things from protondb I try lutris then I give up and refund the game.

What kind of issues are you facing?

Do you have exotic hardware? Like high refresh rate monitors?

I feel like this is gonna be the year of the nvidia linux gamer. Nvidia is noticing us.

Since when do nvidia have a better performance to cost ratio? Have you been look at that gpubenchmark site that basically shills nvidia gpus and shits on and?

If it’s as private as they claim it shouldn’t be an issue.

They really don’t provide enough to back up the insane claims they’re making. I would take all this with a massive grain of salt as it’s most likely bullshit wartime propaganda designed to stir people up.

No they support it because of Azure Cloud and DotNet applications.

That is exactly what I said.

But in some point in time, epic will probably deliver a Linux client and then Valve will probably be forced to make it easier to get the launcher,

Epic might* make a linux client if they see a reason to. But is very unlikely valve will be forced to adopt the epic games launcher into their “gaming mode” that is unrealistic. There is 10000x more monopolies to crack down on before anyone takes a look at the tiny handheld linux gaming market.

Nothing you’ve said provides a reason why Playtron entering the linux gaming market is anything but a positive for linux as a whole. I feel like you think I am attacking valve by talking about their monopoly. I assure you I am not, I like valve and I own a steamdeck. The idea of a gaming app that easily allows users to run games from all platforms equally aligns more with the linux ethos more than the only option being the Steam gaming mode store front and everything else must be added as a non steam game.

This is exactly my point. Microsoft is not supporting linux to improve steamOS or linux gaming. Microsoft supports Linux because they have their own Linux distro that they use and benefit from. The more companies we can get using Linux the better.

More competition is a good thing. More people making handhelds means rhe space is growing and tech is being pushed forward.

No where in my comments do I care or mention the amount physical handheld types. I’ve only mentioned the competition between operating systems.

Its not up to valve to make it easier to access epic. It’s up to epic. I think having an os that is owned by neither valve nor epic would make it more likely to have both storefronts supported as first party citizens.

Epic isn’t going to come to the table just to make steamOS better. Same as Microsoft isn’t going to make steamOS better.

But they epic might come to the table and try and get their platform supported if it was an OS not controlled by their direct competition.

That makes sense in my head but I’m not sure if i have conveyed the idea clearly.

I have no idea why you think I’m the one that’s angry. I’m talking about linux handheld operating systems and all you’ve done is bring up that other handhelds exist running windows. I’m aware of that and it’s not relevant to my original point at all.

Ok so because valve has a good linux handheld operating system then no one else should make a competing Linux handheld system. Why are you so against the idea of more people contributing to the Linux eco system.

As long as steamOS is the only player in the game then epic has no reason to come to the table. They don’t want to make steamOS better its their direct competition.

That’s why a neutral platform could be a good addition to the Linux handheld space.

Yes that’s true but the steam deck doesn’t ship with heroic so those games are not as easy to access as a steam game. An os that has a neutral platform is better than one that favors a certain vendor.

While steam os is really open I do like the idea of it not being tied to steam. “Games you’ve bought from the Epic Games Store are first-class citizens, too” this is closer to the linux ethos. Hopefully they have a good release.

Is Nvidia reflex worth using? As far as I’m aware it aims to reduce latency but I feel like latency is already so low any improvements are unnoticeable.

I feel like the people saying this now aren’t going to follow through and will buy future Nintendo products. If this behavior was a deal breaker for you then you would already be boycotting Nintendo.

Looks like my steam deck is not getting an upgrade. Oh well.
