What’s MintPass? It wasnt clear how to get a token and Im not entering a ph number.

this won’t be interesting for longtime users

You couldn’t be more wrong. Longtime users love hearing peoples experience switching over. Its been a long time since I was a linux noob but i want to be aware of the problems they may be facing so I can help out or steer them to another way of doing it.

Also sometimes its funny because its just a different variant of the same issues, nvidia drivers, audio, distro randomly breaks in the install phase.

KDE is a awesome desktop. Its really powerful and can be bent to liking with window rules and hotkeys.

Yea people tend to uncritically repeat things they hear.

Dual booting is fine. Microsoft destroying bootloaders is mostly a meme off a few bugs. Any distro that ships an up to date kernel and drivers is good. Fedora/Ubuntu. Bazzite is kinda weird for gamers because it just makes every problem harder to solve. If you never tinker then its fine but Bazzite feels more restrictive than windows without knowing how it works.

I only notice the weight when i drop it on my face. Otherwise it just feels like a phone.

People win fps tournaments with controller now. Its harder for the mouse and keyboard player because they have to actually aim. Snap aim + look speed being slowed as you have your scope on people is bullshit. Someone slides past and your aim follows them. Thats never happening on mouse and keyboard and the player has to track that and move.

What’s a good server side anti cheat for comparison?

League of legends didnt effectively manage cheats at all.

Its already made a difference there is no debating that it does reduce cheaters. If you force people to buy specialised hardware to cheat less people will do it. Cheaters dont need to be 0 for it to be worth it. All you need is for players to not regularly run into cheaters and perceive there to be competitive integrity inthier online games.

We also have the citizens advice bureau. They will help you make sure you’re within the law and not being taken advantage of.

Love the citizens advice bureau they helped me not get scammed out of a $2000 bond by a cunt of a landlord.

Curiosity and fate. I was perfectly happy on windows but I was listening to the WAN show and they were talking about their 30day linux channel. About 2 weeks before the first ep my windows install completely bricked itself after an update and I couldnt recover the key so I was forced to either pay for windows again or stay on the free version. I ended up installing linux mint and it was an awful experience. Out of the box mint is pretty crap hardware compat wise. I tried a few other distros before settling on Manjaro where everything worked out of the box and from there i started learning linux.

I plan to keep moving distro’s every few years just to see different ways of learning linux. Im currently on Nobara and fedora on my laptop. I think its probably the best linux distro out there(fedora). I’ve tried gentoo but I did not get it working to the same standard as nobara. I do plan to try gentoo again because I liked being able to pick all the stuff on my system and compiling it. I didnt like selecting all the useflags tho.

I really hate windows but I dont find teams to be that bad. Outlook at all the 365 admin tools are far far worse. Luckily we’re moving away towards google and atlassian.

Chill bro grok was just trolling…

Flatpak is unironically dead. It provides next to no security benefits. Single store with no verification of updates. Worse compatibility with other system apps. Its only positive is that it gives developers a single linux platform to target but it even does a bad job at that since the developer experience is subpar compared to snap and app image.

Apart from having a good name its kinda bad at everything.

Its not worth switching GPU for this. 3070 should be plenty capable of running witcher3. Ive got a friend running a 3060 and she plays all kinds of games with very few driver issues.

We should troubleshoot your issue first and see if a new GPU is required.

I got a year of ultimate plan for half price and moved everything over. Now im having to move away because its way to expensive for what it is and this is while they’re still fighting for market share.

You’re right. I have no idea how I read your initial comment and jump to that conclusion. I must have been tired when i replied.

For the actual response. I think this law does partial combat the misinformation,advertising and brainwashing concerns. I dont think we can/need to prevent misinformation, advertising or brainwashing for people over 16 without serious infringement on civil liberties.

For algorithm’s its far less feasible to go after. These companies protect the algorithm because its the core IP of their business. Its not something we can simply get rid of without destroying the most popular feature of the platform.

Well that would be a much bigger line to cross. Its reasonable to say under 16s are to young to navigate the world of online info. But its completely different to say no age can go on the internet.

Last of us and rimworld

It seems to be popular with people i talk to in real life. It also seems go be very popular with leftwing people outside niche internet spaces like this. Most people are viewing this as a good way to prevent misinformation brainwashing and not paying attention to the removal of internet freedom. From talking to these people its because they dont think there is internet freedom as internet is only 5 sites which all spy on you already.
