Me when I converted to btrfs from ext4. I went in blind and had no idea about sub volumes.

I’ve only seen a bunch of rumors about the firing but nothing concrete since the board hasn’t given an explanation. So yeah it could be that money wins or it could be something else entirely.
I doubt that Microsoft would’ve hired him if he had strong allegations of wrongdoing.


That’s quite clever, are there any guides for getting that set up? I’m using btrfs but haven’t gotten into snapshotting yet.


I recently enabled SysRq to kill processes that hang and it’s been working nicely. Haven’t had to restart in a while. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key


Your Windows and Linux partition can share drives for games if you want to save space. You may run into permission issues sometimes but they’re easy to solve.
The Linux partition can even load games from Windows OS partition.


I agree with you if a game has 0 micro transactions then that’s the one that I want to play but sadly some of the most popular multiplayer games are riddled with them already.
On these games you’re already able to buy a shiny gun or a skin for ~$25 and if that’s not going away I would at least prefer to be able to trade or sell the items.


I’m merely saying that if you earn a shiny skin for X game then you would be able to sell it to someone else that wants to use it on that game. The Steam Community Market already does this except it’s not called NFTs there.


Game collectibles as NFTs. I thought being able to trade/buy/sell a game skin for example sounded like a cool idea since it would allow users to trade freely without the game company having full control of the collectibles. The idea was massively hated and I’m not sure how something like Overwatch 2 is preferable when people that want to get skins need to buy a battle pass to grind or pay for an overpriced skin where 100% of the profits end up with the game company.
Apollo stopped working and Voyager scratches that itch.


Yeah I remember having permission issues that were easily fixed with chown but they were hard to notice. I haven’t booted to Windows in over a year now so I must’ve forgotten lol.


It’s been a while since I switched to btrfs but I do remember the permissions being an issue with NTFS. It was quite annoying because Steam wouldn’t trigger an error so it was hard to debug when the game never opened.


I switched to BTRFS and used a Windows plugin that allows it to read/write to it. It solved all my NTFS and EXFAT issues and works great.
Worked great for me on Arch when installed via this Lutris link. Whenever Riot breaks something someone will figure it out and update the scripts then you just need to reinstall. Good luck!
I did this like a year ago using ‘btrfs-convert’ it was a seamless experience. It even creates a snapshot of your existing partition for backup purposes.


I’ve heard good things about Nobara, a Fedora distribution focused on gaming. I use EndeavorOS which is basically Arch and haven’t encountered any major issues.


You may be thinking of Apex or some other MP game. Valorant for sure doesn’t work on Linux due to the invasive anti cheat.


Oh wow, that doesn’t sound like a nice experience at all. I wonder if older versions of PS work better with Wine since it could be an option if you don’t need the latest features.


Is there no way to run PS on Wine? Seems like that would be a compromise but I’ve never tried it.
For comedies “Rat Race” and “White chicks” always make me laugh.
I fixed this by deleting Windows.
