  • I did some Linux gaming during COVID and recently swapped my HTPC to Linux (Bazzite/Deck) for a console style setup in the living room. Massively improved now over my previous experience.

    The game I was playing heavily this last weekend (Wildmender) absolutely runs better in Proton on Linux than it did on Windows. Less crashes, less stutters, faster load time. I assume it is due to preRendered shaders? Honestly not really sure but it is nice.

    Going to do some Enshrouded on it next which is a game absolutely not at all optimized for Linux, so far it seems to be working fine but I’ve not gotten to that late game CPU intensity of loading areas heavily modified.





  • Switch 2 to me is something I’m okay with from the perspective of, I think these consoles need to update more often. Nintendo didn’t have anything revolutionary to add this time around, but wanted to update the Switch because it had been 8 years. It’s nearly 100% backwards compatible. This is a better choice than the WiiU which basically was Wii without the fun.

    I’m curious what Sony and Microsoft do because there isn’t any new improved tech for those devices that would really drive a better experience for people. Microsoft seems to be toying with the Xbox isn’t a single device it’s an experience concept. Sony made the Pro and no one cared.


  • I drink milk, but milk isn’t superior to oat milk.

    mammal milk has specific ingredients that are meant to specifically feed infants of that animal. So its often high in fat and has specific things that are meant to be digested by that animal. Breast milk from a human has special ingredients that help digest the high lactose content and those ingredients are not in other milks.

    Now Oats have been designed over years to be digested by humans and other animals. They propagate by being consumed and then travel to other areas post consumption. The nutrition in oats and other vegetables is mostly there specifically to drive animals like us to eat them so that we propagate them.










  • Debian tends to be a liiiiitle bit behind Fedora and because gaming on Linux is accelerating in popularity, being ahead can provide big gains in performance.

    Can you manually handle all of that? Sure. I mean I have Mint on my side desktop with a custom Kernel but I recognize that I am dropping a V8 into a Mini Van.



  • In an American vacuum I could see where you are coming from. In comparison with literally the entire rest of the world, it is clearly a flawed standpoint.

    The American Democratic party is the oldest standing political party in the entire world. It last changed it’s political stances in the 1960’s and not because they wanted to, but because they needed to respond to the Republicans flipping the entire south in their favor.

    Other countries have real leftist parties that actually get government members elected.
