Never got into it myself, but I know very well how popular it is, so it must be an objectively good game.

Pretty good!

After reading about Windows Recall last week I decided I’m making the change to Linux. (Dual boot for now, since I’m an avid gamer and don’t want to lose my games, so I need a few months to make sure nothing will break.)

Currently typing this from my fresh installation of Brave on my fresh installation of Linux Mint.

Feels good to say “!@#$ you, Microsoft”.

On the distro I chose, Linux Mint, Steam is easily available via the Software Manager, and roughly half of my games are Steam-compatible out of the box. Steam actually has a toggle in your game library that indicates your games that are Linux-compatible. For those that aren’t, there’s www.protondb.com, where you can check the database to see if particular games are compatible and get installation tips to help with compatibility.

Installation was very easy with info available on Youtube and the Linux Mint website.

All it cost me was $7 for a USB drive in order to create the ISO file.

I should add that I kept Windows as well, due to my extensive video game library. You can have both and just use Linux for most things in order to upgrade your security and efficiency, and just switch to your Windows boot in order to play games that aren’t on Linux.

That is exceedingly helpful. Thank you.

I’m tentatively planning to ditch Windows completely in a few months. I just want to use Linux daily for a while until I’m comfortable with it and certain I’m good to go on the gaming side.

Yeah.

We had a beloved comic shop owner here in Kansas City get murdered chasing down a thief who made off with a handful of books.

I get the desire to want to do something, but man, it makes you wish these dudes had stopped to put it all in perspective before intervening.

It’s exactly what they wanted.

This is about control and punishing perceived undesirables. Cruelty is a feature, not an unfortunate byproduct.

Picked up Slay the Spire on sale on Friday and I’ve put 30 hours into it this weekend.

Not an easy game, but fun.

Man, I love VR.

I watched a lot of the live events they had on Meta Horizons in April and May, planning to watch more this summer.
