If you consciously install a rootkit to play a game, you deserve whatever comes after.

This is great news, other independent search engines should join.

Every distro I listed is awesome in it’s own ways. Arch is great, but you will break it.

Arch is for people that want to learn Linux enough to fix it and/or tailor it down to the last package, if you want something that just works no matter what, it’s not for you.

However, if you have a second PC and your activities are not critically important and you have lots of free time, it’s great to learn how Linux works.

Having 2 drives also works fine. Just don’t dual boot on the same drive, as that will eventually result in being unable to boot.

• 1998:

I tried my first linux distro: Mandriva

• 1998 - 2020

Every year I chose a distro and spent a month with it. Mandrake was a an eye opener. Then Ubuntu was the easiest, but it was not ready for me yet.

• 2021:

Linux is now ready for work & gaming, so I switched and tried these major distros and their downstream forks:

Debian

• Ubuntu

  • Zorin
  • POP OS
  • Mint
  • Tails

• Vanilla OS

Arch

• Manjaro
• Endeavour OS
• Crystal
• BlendOS
• SteamOS

Fedora

• Fedora Workstation

• Nobara
• Fedora Silverblue

• Ublue:

• Aurora
• Bazzite

I recommend Bazzite for gamers and Aurora, for everyone else. They are as if not easier to use than a smartphone.

I use Aurora on my work laptop, and Bazzite on my gaming desktop. Both have been great with no issues.

Not really FOSS, so… no thank you.

Because it’s easier, it just works and it doesn’t nag me.

I use Bazzite, it’s been the best computing experience I had.

Ask anything you want.

Will Darksiders 5 have 5 player coop? Will you also shit or retain it indefinitely?

2 kids here.

Avoid any challenges until you can handle the most important one. Just come back when he’s 1 y/o.

I now game with them on my Bazzite Linux desktop PC and our Steam Deck. Kids love it.

Do we know why they don’t make ports for newer Pixels?

Headphone jack:

Get a USBC adapter

Batteries:

Not easy to change, check out ifixit

Debian <> Pixel data transfer:

USB, or Wireless across any protocol you can imagine.

My experience with GOS:

Contactless payments and some QR code payment methods from banking apps in my country refuse to work with GOS.

Otherwise, I love it. Very easy to install and use. Recommended.

A Sims clone has to be better than the Sims and even then I wouldn’t like to play it. A mod friendly life sim engine is something I would definitely want to play.

I can already imagine a SimGine Skyrim mod being uploaded on day 1.

But I would suggest to scale it back even more, if I understood correctly, it’s still very ambitious. Make it scriptable, modular, dev & artist friendly. Well documented, treat contributors as first class.

• Life sim:

Start with the creation of something where contributors can create for example a dog entity add the a trait called thirst which has a counter that increases x% every x seconds then another contributor adds a bowl of water that replenishes the thirst meter.

• Building mode:

Start with a grid and snapping system with layering so that contributors could create the building blocks. Players could import models and assign an entity to it.

• Character creation:

Players could start by importing ready made models. The character creator could come later, or you could start with just hats. And go from there.

I run Bazzite which is immutable and rock solid stable. I use Boxbuddy which is a frontend for Distrobox to install packages from any distro when I can’t find it on brew.

BF4 has 64 players total, BFBC2 has 32 players total.

• Journey
• Shadow Of The Colossus
• Shenmue 1
• Half-Life 1 & 2

If Half Life 3 was made using Godot, things would get wild.

Wero is becoming the PIX of EU.

Suicide devs, unemployed Squad.

Use the Fork Luke!

Looks ready for Bazzite !

Your choices:

• buy a new PC with Windows 11
• move to linux with your current PC
• stay with Windows 10 on your current PC, and take the risk of using an insecure system.
