Base

CAD$90

Imagine supporting Denuvo lmao. What a guy

They’re meaning a model with SteamOS preinstalled. They don’t want to pay an extra $200 on it if a SteamOS model will be released for $200 less than the Windows model. They’re putting Bazzite on it regardless of whether they get a Windows model or if they buy a SteamOS model if/when that comes out.

I agree, but what I mean is that Lemmy has a much smaller userbase. Most people don’t even know about it.

EDIT: Also, the smaller userbase may itself be a reason for the more welcoming community.

Deepin your mom’s nuts

Very true. Not a lot of outreach you can do on Lemmy, though. Still a pretty niche platform.

I agree, but I’m cynical and don’t see that ever happening.

To be fair, most people who want to install Linux will google “how to install Linux” and most likely will be pointed at the main Ubuntu distro.

Deepin your mom

EDIT: I wish this was appreciated more than it is

Because it’s a random set and spread across the whole hundred million users of Steam. The chances of any person being selected more than annually are low.

I mean, you should be happy about that. If it was the other way around then your government would sell your country out from under you. See: America.

So, when I think “emulation” I usually consider it to be software emulating a hardware device (e.g. the original Gameboy, audio cards for legacy programmes that required audio cards, etc.). What they’re describing in the article is what has been described to me as being an abstraction/compatibility layer. So my questions are: 1.a. Is that really what this is or is it actually an emulator? b. If the latter, what makes it an emulator rather than a compat layer? 2. In general, how much do the two concepts interact? E.g. separate concepts entirely, ends of some continuum, etc.

Running via WSL on a Windows VM on Linux

Well, it certainly runs better than that on a 6650XT. I’m mainly referring to the highly variable FPS and hitching seen even on a 4090/5090. In the tutorial I had 60fps on High with FSR enabled. But in the open world it was up and down from 30 to 60 and dropping to 5 every few minutes. Apparently someone’s made a mod to fix that and it’s a fairly common thing with UE5 games. I refunded before I learned about that mod but I’m honestly just gonna play the original instead.

As for your 1060… Well, it is way underpowered. That’s what I upgraded from. It’s largely outdated for modern titles in general.

6650XT gang. Been a good card for me so far. The only game I’ve had crawling to a halt so far is the Oblivion remaster (refunded after realizing it ran like dogshit, not just on my system, but on any system). Was the best option at the time (late 2024) for my money and I needed an upgrade badly. I might upgrade to the 9060 XT for raytracing though since it’s dogass on the 6650XT. That is my only regret so far.

gnot happening.

As much as I like SteamOS, it really bothers me that it deletes Waydroid when it updates. Idk why it does that but it’s irritating. Does Bazzite have the same issue?

smig ball

Hey there. I learned about Immich from Louis Rossmann’s channel. Promptly forgot about it. It popped up in my feed just now. This is just one way that Immich could come to the attention of anyone spontaneously. If I was interested in using Immich, I would probably also ask about paid services for hosting because my current circumstances prohibit self-hosting. But I’m not interested in using Immich, nor do I have the money to pay for such a service anyway.

Not everything is some sort of conspiracy.

EDIT: Also, if you think the guy’s a bot, why bother replying? Furthermore, why bother replying as though they were human? “Who sent you” psssh smh goofy ah guy
