Betteridge wins again.

Handhelds are a niche in PC gaming. Especially in the whole gaming market.

Even without BTRFS it is possible to just delete every folder on root except for /home. Haven’t encountered any distros that couldn’t handle it.

Now the question is, do they use Yuzu or Ryujinx?

Well, at least unfortunately he doesn’t have the variant that shuts down all your energy and makes you unable to leave the bed.

The funny thing is that it actually used to be the other way around when it was still ATI. The ATI drivers sucked ass so nvidia was almost mandatory if you wanted to run Linux.

Really, no need to. Go AMD when you want to upgrade anyways but don’t throw away a perfectly fine GPU. The difference between AMD and nVidia is that AMD works out of the box and for nvidia you would have to do one click or command to install the driver. That’s it.

Sure, if you dig deeper it is much more nuanced. But unless you have some unusual use case beyond gaming (which might actually compell you to go nvidia) just stick to what you have.

I’d say stick to what you know. So one of the Debian or Ubuntu based distros. Like Ubuntu, Mint or Pop OS.

Stay away from Valve’s Debian based SteamOS. That is horribly outdated and has nothing to do with what people nowadays mean when they say “SteamOS”. I’m always surprised to learn that it’s still available.

In the end it doesn’t really matter which distro you choose. All of them should have no problems with running WoW.

Nvidia graphics aren’t terrible. AMD graphics are just much better. The nvidia drivers still work.

Guys, Israel can be committing war crimes and genocide and Hamas can be inflating death tolls. Both can be true.

No, don’t kill him. Let him develop Long Covid and then waste away in his own filth.

Unfortunately my Intel card craps out when trying to color correct the display.

Can you see with top or ps what program is eating up all the RAM? Probably some bug you may report.

Try to automate updates as much as possible so that new security bugs get fixed quickly.

I often exit a shell with ctrl+d. And I often see if a shell is still connected by pressing enter. They are definitely not equivalent.

Now that I think about it, the marvellous thing about BG3 isn’t just the acting of the main characters but of the minor NPCs as well. It shows an unprecedented attention to detail and love and care.

I think the only “bad” acting I encountered in the game was that one kid who was apparently voiced by one of the staff’s kids. And that’s only because the model looked too old, for which I suspect that the kid chose their own model.

At least Silent Hill 2 was great as well. Lae’zel’s actress Devora Wilde actually did some mocap for it. She did some Maria and some of the monsters.

She’s streaming her own playthrough on Twitch. It’s hilarious and painful. BG3 was the first video game she’s ever played since the Sims back then.

But yeah, they really upped the game. And apparently they got Liv Tyler interested in doing games as well.

We’re really living through the time gaming is growing up.

Just the occasional bug report. I don’t have more to spare. Most I have ever done was to give code for a semi-big new feature back. I had developed it for work and was glad that I got permission to publish the code. Especially when someone fixed a bug in it.

I also contributed to PHP. That’s the biggest project with my contribution. I also tried to make something for OpenSUSE’s zypper but thanks to Long COVID lack the energy and brain power.

Not a far fall for Magic the Gathering since the Pinkerton incident.

That would be great. It would mean a ton of lost revenue and bad publicity for Denuvo.

Yeah, another good example of the XY-Problem.
