Running tools/secondary programs/etc like this alongside your game in the same instance is like the last major headache/roadblock for gaming on linux, with all the solutions available not being foolproof enough to work 100% fo the time.
Hopefully within another year or two this more minority issue will be addressed and resolved, like general gaming issues have been.
I remember when cameras in toilets were a thing that women lived in fear of, especially in public toilets.
Now its a thing we’re buying from corporations to give them HD live stream of the same thing.
What kind of lunatic is gonna buy an online enabled toilet camera to monitor their shits?
Most of its just AI generated websites. Search for any topic and you’re likely to get 50 AI generated website that give a similar bulletpoint presentation of what search item X is according to the AI that generated the site.
I used to self-host searxng for a while, but somehow the search results were always off and mixed with to much non-relevant results :/.
I mean, getting non-relevant results happens with every search engine anymore.
The days of your search results being relevant, and what you want on the first page, are long dead thanks to SEO and other factors.
wait, what? did earthbound get released on PC or something?
Make your time.
gaming has really been flawless, in my experience, the past year on proton.
I had a lot of issues playing games in the past, that were usually resolved with proton updates or switching to GE Proton… but the past year? I’ve had zero issues playing anything. The past hear has been so smooth as to, honestly, make me forget I’m playing on linux from time to time.
The only real issue I have left is fooling around in single player games (Which i have beaten many times and just futzing around in to play with, and NOT in any way impacting any kind of online play… hell, the games I’m futzing around in don’t even have online components) with cheat engine/save editors/etc… For some reason recently cheat engine/pince has stopped working, even on games i used to use it on, and cant seem to even find the game memory addresses anymore… and trying to get windows based save editors and stuff installed has been kinda painful… and certain mods, like for Cyberpunk, I’ve never gotten to work. Minor side issues most people wont ever run into. Which is why its understandably still difficult. get shit running like butter, than worry about edge cases and shit like this.
Except that just means they’d optimize for that specific hardware in the steam machine and still run like shit on anything else.
Power wise, they said the steam machine is equivalent to what 70% of the steam users already have and use. If developers arent already optimizing for that specific block, then one more machine out of thousands wont encourage it.
still solves the problem.
can someone kidnap this motherfucker and make him work normal labor job for 80 hours a week, for a year, and see how much he likes this stupid fucking pants on head idea after that
PC stuff sucked this year thanks to AI datacenters creating shortages that saw stuff like 100 dollar sets of ram skyrocket to 1000 dollars
Black friday used to actually be good. but like everything good, corporate greed ruined it.
It became a week long event, then a month long event, then companies figured out if they slightly hurt sales in late october/november by doubling prices, they could massively increase sales for black friday, and make those sales at near normal retail pricing too thanks to JCPennying.
I still shop black friday when I can. not to buy into marketing hype, or to buy something for its normal price and think I got an amazing deal, but because I hope to find something i actually need in a discount price I can actually afford. . . Which is getting rarer and rarer with each passing year.
Yeah, that seems par for the course with current Paradox games the past few years…
Cities Skylines is 2 years old and still shit, too… Hell paradox is even going so far as to change the dev company working on it at the start of next year. Which is doing wonders for peoples hope for the future of the game /s
What? VTM2 came out?
When?
I legitimately did not know it was released.
Is that part of why its flopping?
Or is the gameplay bugged to fuck/story shit/etc?
Bullshit translator: “I want to sell more AI made games, so i can reduce costs by firing everyone, and being held accountable for using AI is gonna prevent me from bilking idiots to increase my fortunes by another billion or 5”
ah yes, every time they want to do something abhorrent, they cry “its for the children!” to immediately try and silence any critics.
6700 is indeed a decent GPU for anything you want to play.
but your FX processor is so old that it cant keep up, Its bottlenecking the hell out of you. I bet you arent even hitting 50% of the capability of the GPU with such an old CPU.
I dont want to tell you to go and spend hundreds of dollars to buy a new mobo/cpu/ram… but theres no tweaking, editing, or anything, you can do to make a 13 year old CPU keep up with modern software.
Either gonna have to accept limitations and only play much older games, or invest in new CPU/MOBO/RAM… Which is a bad time to be doing that because ram prices are like 300% higher than what they should be, and continuing to climb, thanks to AI. . . if you do upgrade, I’d suggest picking up at least the ram used, if not the whole bunch.

So what? I’m at work and I don’t have the mental energy to address all this shit, on top of my job duties.
Guy spends time arguing pure bullshit and propaganda, but doesnt have the mental energy to handle being called out and suddenly pretends hes such a poor, oppressed victim.
what a fuckin joke, lol.
No.
They like the texture of leather.
Its the polish that provides the taste.
