The issue is they want to run rootkits and malware instead of games.
Not sorry. Siege, Fortnite, Valorant, all of these games require kernel level access to Windows to run, and the publishers refuse to support Windows.
The only reason I’d ever play games like this in the past is due to peer pressure from friends to play these shitty games together with a bunch of sweats, cheaters and an overall generally toxic community. Especially Siege.
Social peer pressure goes both ways. And I’ve basically peaced out on any of these games in my friends group. That was enough to end that game for game nights, and as those games fade from our memory. I make sure what little memory of it remains is the true tainted and awful form from which they originated.
If you need a kernel level anti-cheat for your game, and nothing else will protect it. Your game is shit, your development cycle is shit, your company is shit, your community is shit, and why would I ever want to play a shit game with shit people from a shit company that forces devs to work under a shit development cycle?
As both a MacOS and Linux user I agree with myself on the regular that Windows is shit.
I also wash my hands on the regular.
Great meme, very accurate.

Next week: EU to ban web browsing, for security.
Seriously, why is the EU such an insane flipflop, going from one side of the political spectrum to the other in as little as a few hours sometimes?
Granting fascists access to other fascists to become super fascist groups is the most dangerous part of social media.
Given that most of the main social media platforms now are owned by capitalist fascist dickheads, its only going to get worse.
If social networking like Lemmy or Mastodon were more mainstream, we could just name, shame and isolate these monsters. If they can’t interact with people outside of their group without getting instanbanned or insta-defederated, then they’ll either delve deeper and deeper into their nonsense, until their instances gets raided or they’ll venture out of their alt-right safe-haven and get hit with reality and rejoin society.
Didn’t he already write a public letter explaining how what they did does reveal ads, but that it was unfair because they went ad hunting and searched for ads on a page?
Boohoo, just because they over-searched to see it happen, means that it can and does happen.
This is a failure on your part, not theirs. This is how scientific research is conducted.
Not that you understand science or handling failure, Elon.
Oh no, not a penny degree. help, somebody help us.
Need to start putting pressure on the anti-linux devs/publishers who find ticking a “proton compatibility” checkbox for their intrusive anti-cheat to be too hard.
Well it’s because AMD’s drivers are just shit period. But most users on Linux use the Mesa drivers which are far superior to AMD’s proprietary drivers.
Nvidia is very much anti-Linux and anti-user.
They’re more focused on the server market these days, which makes their Anti-Linux sentiment hillarious.
If this isn’t your first round on linux, Try Debian, set it to use non-free contrib packages and set the appstore to install apps as flatpaks before native.
Avoid using Ubuntu based distros as they run Snap packages which are just a general nightmare for users.
Snaps make sense for servers, but the only reason Ubuntu forces it on users is $$$$.
Rumble is functionally on par with YouTube in terms of video player and not having ads.
But Rumble is a Fascist cesspool filled with people who ran from YouTube when they implemented such controversial rules as “don’t say racial slurs” and “don’t spread misinformation.”.
Rumble has been funded by mostly Right Wingers and an agreement with Trump.
I fear more that YouTube’s harder push on forcing ads to users will result in a user-base exodus to Rumble.
The amount of comments I’ve seen on various YT videos about how YouTube is breaking adblockers and forcing ads on users while making it a TOS Violation, where the comment says something like “I’ll just move to rumble, lol”, is worrying.
While I see an extensive amount of “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” and do agree that this is the typical logic of Microsoft.
It’s obvious this is to try and avoid getting hit with similar monopoly accusations that their competitors are receiving.
“Look, Look!! We support other Operating Systems! We have a guide! We’re not a monopoly! See, See!!”
Cool. Now fix the other issues with Linux VR.
VR is literally the last reason I have a windows install at all.
The SteamDeck is my favorite purchase of last year.
Literally the best PC I’ve ever owned.
Debian is more stable.
