Yeah I’ve been very happy here. Despite a reputation as a “tankie instance” I find that we mostly just don’t put up with fascists which is sick imo.

Umm, what I said: the updates happen faster. If you have a GPU maybe you should try it?

If you’re on a high-refresh display, the GPU acceleration allows for much faster updates. Makes it feel much smoother. It’s of course not needed, but neither is a lot of stuff we do.

Uhh, switching terminals is nothing like distro-hopping, that’s a ridiculous analogy. You might need to configure the new terminal, but that’s it, and there’s no cost or conflict.

I love foot. The only caveat is that it’s only for Wayland (no X support).

This does look a lot more faithful to the gameplay of the original than that weird mobile game they made a couple years ago. I’m sure the move to 3d means the precision won’t be quite as demanding, but hopefully the extra dimension will make up for that with interesting new challenges.

Lol he means another gas station

What makes it stupid? At least it’s relevant instead of random nonsense names like “noto” “callenda” “amiri” etc (apologies if all these names have rich etymologies)

I really like Hack for monospace.

Firefox. They’re still great, people keep freaking out over extremely benign changes.

There’s a 100% chance that his mic issues are not driver related, but instead are Discord’s fault. They are classically awful at providing feature parity for Linux.

Have him fiddle with the audio settings, it’s probably either the echo cancellation or noise reduction. As another commenter mentioned there are third party solutions for both.

FYI for GW2 you can actually use the steam client even if your account is non-steam, you just need to use a launch option – see here https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/wvxqe3/logging_into_guild_wars_2_on_steam_with_an/

To be clear, the vast majority of “games with anti-cheat” work perfectly well on Linux. It’s just the ones where developers have chosen to either explicitly block Linux (e.g. Fortnite) or to use invasive rootkit anti-cheat (e.g. Riot games, FACEIT, etc.) which wouldn’t be allowed to work on Linux anyway because it’s a really stupid idea to let random gaming companies have access to your ring 0.

Great, yeah, both sides are the same huh? Grow a spine.

It’s designed from the ground up as a competitive multiplayer experience. A pve version would be an extremely different game.

While pretty much any distro can do this, I will warn you that it’s not the greatest idea. GNOME and KDE are both massive software suites and you’ll have a lot of redundant programs, e.g. two GUI file managers, and sometimes you’ll get unexpected behavior. There are also some look and feel issues that might crop up with apps getting style hints from two places. Again, it’s nothing super major, and it’s been a while since I’ve done this so maybe it’s improved, but any time I’ve tried I end up rolling back or reinstalling with only one big DE.

It’s much less of an issue to have one big DE and then potentially several other more modular window managers, as those have much less opinionated payloads. I’ve got sway and hypr installed alongside GNOME.

Bethesda doesn’t need any more money, spend it on an indie game.

I’ve been enjoying Tauon, it does the things I want
