I’ve had a good experience with Bazzite. It worked out of the box for steam, and the “bazaar” app store built into it had everything I needed. Heroic is in there and good for handling PC games from other stores. Use Proton+ to get the latest Proton GE if you run into any windows game compatibility issues and it may solve them.
They are working on Linux native.
My 5000 series has worked out of the box on Bazzite. The only GPU bug I’ve run into is that Moonlight is incompatible with the driver. All of the games I’ve tried have worked with proton GE, and with some config tinkering I even have VR with full body tracking working for VRChat…
HOWEVER
I can’t say its a premium experience for competitive games or VR. Both have latency issues that impact the experience. Maybe an older shooter like openMW would be just fine, but modern games like Rematch have had some weirdness, even though they “run fine”.
I haven’t used nextcloud in years. Has it gotten any better with external storages, specifically when there are many files in one directory? It used to time out/become unresponsive in that situation, and make many unnecessary database requests/updates.
Others influence many things about my life. I don’t see it as policing if I’m trying to choose to bring more positivity to the table.
oh no. I should upvote more. I’m really bad about voting at all 😓
Check the instance the meme and poster are from.
The hobby is getting more expensive while income left over after cost of living is going down. This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.
Pro 2 is symmetrical. Looks like a SNES controller with handles. The ergonomics of it are very different between it and the ultimate, and I prefer the pro 2 by a lot, but they are both good controllers.
I’m personally a fan of the pro 2. I find it to be the most comfortable controller I own. Their QC does seem lacking for the hall effect sensor version though, I had to set up a small dead zone because it idled with a little bit of input. Still a smaller deadzone than a non hall effect, but I wanted to make note of it.
Months back, I submitted a support ticket asking if they had any plans to support a d-input mode with both analog triggers and gyroscope inputs enabled, like the steam-licensed controller that just came out at the time did. They said they had no plans, but they’d forward the question. I wonder if this is a result of that. Would be cool if they also started reporting the back paddles as separate inputs as well, but I didn’t include that in the ticket.
I’ve been seeing waaaay too much unwarranted vitriol and anger in comments lately, for things that really aren’t that big a deal (like Linux vs windows) and I find it disappointing. As a community we should want Lemmy to grow, and yes that does mean we will get more “normie” posts, but imo that’s good and if someone doesn’t like it they can use more niche community spaces, which there will be more of with a larger userbase.
If the host has Plex pass other accounts dont need it to watch, iirc.
There is a downside, and that’s why Switch 1 games have an option to become digital cartridges and it is not forced.
The downside resides in if a single account has multiple switches. With the current system, you have a primary switch on your account, and this switch can play any digital title whenever it wants. Any secondary switches on that account need to connect to the internet anytime they want to play a title. This leads to a flow where you may have your primary switch be a portable one (no need for internet to boot) and a secondary switch to be a dedicated at-home or docked device. Either switch can play any game you own without really planning much of anything. This will not be possible with the new system, where you will need to move digital licenses between consoles.
Additionally, you could have a friends account on your switch and you could borrow games that way, or they could sign in and play their games on your console while visiting you without having planned it before. Now, they will have to bring their own switch or otherwise preplan wanting to play a game on another console, and move that digital cartridge.
While I do think the new system is overall better, I also think its just wrong to claim there are no downsides when compared to the current system.
One minute for you and me, but that sort of thing just isn’t feasible for many even if they have someone walking them through it over the phone.
Unfortunately I dont have the time or willpower to go into detail and I do disagree with how you want change to come about, but if what you want happens, I truly hope it results in a better society for people to live in. I think we can both agree we just want things to be better for people.
I respectfully disagree that the party could never change due to their current funding, and I am rubbed the wrong way by how you continue to seem to push that I shouldn’t support better politicians just because they aren’t perfect.
Bernie and those like him have informed me and many others of what a good politician can look like and may have inspired others like AOC to start their career. I will support them as much as I can because they may inspire even more like them to actually have enough people to make a meaningful change in the party or, if we miraculously get away from the two party system, spin up a new one.
Many people will definitely go back, but the percentage staying might be better this time around. Linux has gotten a lot more usable and stable for those tech inclinced enough to be able to install it thanks in part to proton, immutable distros, flatpacks, Wayland, and improved defaults. Mint and bazzite are pretty darn good for daily use. I’ve never stayed on Linux as long as I have with this run, and I really don’t feel much of a push to leave it. Most everything I want to do just works.
