I got an OLED 1 TB for my birthday yesterday and I’m looking for titles I can download to play when I’m off shore on a ship. I like FPS games but am always looking for the next adventure. What do you suggest?...
can sometimess not even respect your gtk/qt theming
sandboxing/permission system can lead to you trying to figure out which directory you need to give access to when you want to save file if it wasn’t preconfigured
uses its own libraries and not system libraries, want to play the hit new AAA game with steam flatpak? get fucked it requires a mesa commit that was merged 8 hours a go and you’re stuck on 23.0.4 and can’t use the git release.
Flatpak probably has it’s specific uses like trying to use one piece of proprietary software that you don’t trust and don’t want to give it too much access to your system, or most GUI software clients having an easy way to install Discord on your Steam Deck (no terminal usage, Linux is easy yay), but native packages 99% of the time work better.
Hi all. I’ve used Linux off and on for almost two decades now but most recently in a VM. I’m thinking I might make the permanent switch sometime before Windows 10 EOL. My concern is that I have over 12TB of data spanned across many drives, all in the NTFS file system. How is NTFS compatibility nowadays? For a time, I...
In terms of plug and play, using KDE Plasma, trying to mount USB NTFS drives with Dolphin fails because udisks2 needs a new release with an NTFS patch so you’ll need to mount those using the terminal (and possibly a umask argument that I can’t remember off the top of my head if you want r/w access instead of read-only). Internal drives that are NTFS worked by clicking on them with no extra steps required surprisingly. This was with a newer kernel that has the ntfs3 driver and not using ntfs-3g fuse driver which also ‘just works’ but is slower.
I am trying to choose between buying a Nintendo Switch or a Nintendo DS.
Last time I checked a Nintendo DS is nowhere near as expensive as a Nintendo Switch, you could probably get both unless you only have $300 in your bank account.
First MCC update of the year starting off with Halo 2 classics hit registration being worked on, maybe it’ll be like ‘exactly like it was when it released’. Halo 3 mods need to be rebuilt for this update as well.
*5 years to make a AAA over the shoulder cinematic experience that has to appeal to investors who dont play video games and the lowest common denominator
You use the same torrent client or web browser that you used on windows and download the game, then run the game with wine, set up the prefix and install the dependencies with winetricks. Or use Steam, Lutris or Heroic and have it do all the complicated stuff for a new user.
Yeah we all know Manjaro is ass but a 16:10 screen that’s 120hz is cool. I’d get one if it had adaptive sync. When I saw OrangePi I thought I’d be an ARM device using box86/64 to run Steam games, as inefficient as that sounds.
The only modern Sony PlayStation exclusives I’d want on PC are Gravity Rush and The Last Guardian. Haven’t been super interested in their output so far.
I’ve been distrohopping for a while now, and eventually I landed on Arch. Part of the reason I have stuck with it is I think I had a balanced introduction, since I was exposed to both praise and criticism. We often discuss our favorite distros, but I think it’s equally important to talk about the ones that didn’t quite hit...
Ross Scott talking about The Crew’s future server shutdown making the game unplayable for people who bought it or received it for free. He wants to see if a lawsuit is possible because of how fast technology is outpacing the law and needs help with who to contact.
