li10,

I used to be active on /r/mma which was actually a decent sub with good moderation, but there was also /r/ufc which was just awful.

A place for teenagers to post dogshit takes and say shit like “I can’t wait to see X fighter get knocked out”. They treat it like WWE, wanting it to be a dramatic story and not the competitive sport that it is.

I’ll need to give Linux gaming another chance at some point.

All I know is that people were saying games run great on Linux a couple of years ago as well, but when I actually tried it for myself the performance was unusable.

Maybe that was my fault for over complicating my setup, but even when I tried a basic setup it still felt very janky.

Not sure if anyone’s able to advise, but does RTX and variable refresh rate work on Linux?

Those are absolute requirements for me.

li10,

Thanks, I’ll definitely need to give Linux gaming another shot then.

The last bit that might hold me back is getting my Hue Sync stuff working. It sounds silly, but it really makes games feel so much more immersive that I don’t want to be without it.

li10,

I just watched the ad for the first time.

It’s undeniably weird and uncomfortable.

Hyprland is better if you’re on Nvidia as well.

Mainly because if you ask for help with Sway on Nvidia then people basically tell you to fuck off and call you a cunt.

For real tho, they’ll actually chastise you just for asking a question.

I recently looked at buying NBA league pass in the UK, £100 to watch games that aren’t on at a reasonable time and still full of ads…

Now I’ve set up RSS to download the games, and the uploaders even cut the ads and intermissions.

li10,

For some reason people seem to think they’re fundamentally smarter than people were back then.

Yeah, you may have technically had a better education, but you’re not inherently more intelligent than the average person back then, and a genius from that time is still miles ahead of you.

li10,

You can disable shorts??

I need to do that. I get stuck in a loop of watching them, and 90% of them just piss me off anyway.

li10,

I just wipe the lenses on my shirt, and blast them under a tap every so often to clean.

li10,

That’s a really stupid thing to think.

I totally knew they weren’t birds 👀

li10,

Can you tho?

You’re gonna get a whole team of people retrained with software they’re not used to, probably doesn’t have proper support or learning resources to fall back on, and may lack features or compatibility?

They might save some money, but a lot of businesses are more than happy to pay a lot to ensure they don’t have to worry about the above, and they can get on with their company’s actual purpose.

Windows 10 and 11 are the same product, just a new version…

They’re also extremely similar (damn near identical), and if you currently use windows 10 then eventually you’ll have no option but move to 11…

li10,

I thought it sounded really out of place still, but I guess it’s a reference to Cyberpunk’s expansion being stealth/spy based.

li10,

Yours isn’t?

li10,

Yes, I will single-handedly keep this song alive.

For real though, I just think it’s a fun song. Maybe I didn’t work retail long enough for it to get to me.

li10,

Is the insinuation that Wonderful Christmastime is a bad song?

If so, I’m ready to throw hands.

Recipe: “Start by putting x in the oven for 30 minutes. While that’s cooking, prepare the next part and cook that for 25 minutes so it’s all ready at the same time.”

Me, about to put the second part in the oven after preparing it for 20 minutes:

li10,

I’m gonna get shit for it, but gaming on Linux really isn’t great imo.

My experience is that it’s a pain in the arse to get anything running, performance is worse, vsync is fucked, no HDR, doesn’t work with Hue Sync, and then a hundred other miscellaneous problems.

Proton is an incredible achievement from a technical standpoint, and if people are happy to put up with issues to protect their privacy then good on them, but I think people oversell how good the actual Linux gaming experience is.

P.S. I don’t need suggestions on how to fix the issues I listed. I’m more than able to resolve them if I had the time, I just don’t want to have those problems to start with.
