What in the ragety-anne-fuck is going on there?

Your second paragraph tells me you haven’t even tried because the first part is just checking a checkbox in the steam settings to automatically use proton for games without linux support, and occasionally going in to the game settings (again in steam) to force it to use proton instead of a broken linux version.

And there’s no performance limitations running them on Linux. If anything, performance is even better on Linux because it isn’t running every single possible service MS wants to minimize support time and gobble up data.

Only exceptions to this are if you play games that want to do things in your kernel, or maybe if you’re using an nvidia gpu, depending on your distro it might take effort to get that set up properly.

If you have an AMD GPU, it’s actually quicker to go from start installing the OS to playing a game on linux than it is in windows between a) it not trying to steal focus to upsell you on other ms products, b) gpu drivers being included in the distro, and c) the defaults just being better on linux, thus less time spent making it less annoying to use.

It’s just no longer true that windows is the right tool for gaming, except for a list of specific games that want to invade the kernel and thus I’m kinda happy that I won’t accidentally run one. They don’t even stop cheating (which should be done on the server side anyways).

Not to mention they often cheap out on both the software and hardware, so you end up having to slowly navigate through poorly designed UIs that it struggles to display.

It’s even more pathetic than that. They aren’t just expressing their will to play the game, they are asking for approval despite it. It’s similar to the “nothing personal” disclaimer which is usually followed by something with significant personal disruption.

Most honestly expressed, they’d be, “I’m doing/about to do something that impacts you negatively, please don’t retaliate against me because I don’t like it when negative things happen to me.”

Edit: just noticed the commenter you replied to reversed the original saying and agrees with you.

They must have found one in the bargain bin.

I get what you’re saying, but this isn’t an example of that. The three sisters provided benefits to each other while growing simultaneously.

Yeah fair, kinda funny how implied tone can work when reading things. On my first read, for some reason I took the “skill issue” as more playful but on second read, who knows.

Playful banter or a deadly duel of words?

I can’t see how their reply was combative if yours wasn’t in the first place. Coming out of nowhere to protect AWS’s honour or something?

RAM is a resource that works best when you have more than you need. I always want there to be some unused RAM because then my system can do anything it needs to without spending time swapping out the least recently used pages before it has any free ones to use.

Shitty programs that take GBs of memory to do things that should only need MBs or KBs of it isn’t “getting my money’s worth out of my computer”.

If someone claims to not have any pronouns, always refer to them by their name.

No, “Hi Jeff, how was your day? Did you pick up your package?”

It’s, “Hi Jeff, how was Jeff’s day? Did Jeff pick up Jeff’s package?”

If you don’t know their name, make up a descriptive one, be creative!

Ah shit, now there’s going to be a weird silent gap in the middle of the show because the joke was stolen!

If you think gates is a decent person, or that his MS bullshit was the worst he did and he has since calmed down, check out the Behind the Bastards episodes on him. You’ll probably find that MS bs was even worse than you knew about (he was a massive greedy hypocrite, literally an example of someone climbing a ladder and then trying to pull it up behind him), but that shit only scratches the surface.

Iirc you can create custom syntax highlighting formats for notepad++. So if it’s not there by default, someone else might have made a file for it, or you can start making one yourself, as the format was easy to understand. It’s been like a decade since I’ve used it, but it should be somewhere in the menus.

Lol

Cause: No one knows.

Treatment: Tell the patient to stop worrying about it.

I’m sure there’s plenty of other reasons to not steal a tesla. It being a mobile surveillance device being one of them. Also, if I was going to steal a car, I’d pick one with better build quality and one that doesn’t have a different fire exit than the normal way to exit that I’d probably be going for if my car was suddenly on fire.

Some people say they love disco. But I have to ask: what is love?

Have they even given a potential price yet?

Is this boycott being pushed by US MAGAs or by their foreign thought leaders?

That “or else” is pretty great, though. Using linux after windows might feel like getting into a healthy relationship after being in an abusive and controlling relationship.

They might be ragdoll type cats, named that way because they tend to flop and relax when picked up instead of trying to regain control or aceept it but hate it like other cats.
