This thread feels like i just sat down for some coffee and a cigarette at a corner cafe on a cool April morning in Paris, 1871…

Which is really fun because in creating the authoritarian state you’ve undermined communism in ideology and remain as such in name only.

That’s a great midrange/budget rig!

Looking at OP’s link it’s still twice the cost though, and given their gaming requirements it may be overkill.

I would agree if space, portability, and modularity aren’t factors then your build is a very good suggestion.

Edit: I’m looking at a different Amazon than you probably, i didn’t think of that when i commented.

Windows 10 will still be usable after support ends. Security is the only concern, and not that big of one if you regularly back up. It may be a good idea dual boot with Linux on a separate drive while you hammer out the issues with whatever distro.

I personally think anything with plasma 6 will fit for interface coming from windows. Some sort of distro like Ubuntu or Debian that commonly has pre-packages in the wild would make sense.

But it peaked the same year Doom came out. Obviously Doom was the cause of the peak!

I should add, that as less people played Doom, violent crime reduced.

That sucks real hard.

So bomb. True that. Dope. 1337

Fuck that i only have a house so i don’t have to pay someone else’s mortgage.

Don’t bring your eugenicist ideas into my human meat market. As long as they’re fed a healthy corn based diet it’s fine.

So you’re saying the graph maker is in the lower quartile?

My understanding is the biggest issue is kernel level anti-cheat. I’ve never had a game fail to play well for me, but i also don’t play stuff like battlefield or destiny or FIFA or whatever.

Worst bug I’ve had is War Thunder having a 5-second freeze at the start of ground realistic battles. But that’s just bad support for the Linux client.

Other issues I’ve seen the most is forcing dedicated GPU (run parameters fix, e.g. DRI_PRIME=XXX) and connectivity with indie games on steam which is usually fixed with changing proton version, ensuring dedicated gpu, etc.

In the end, Finnish Cottage Simulator runs with proton 9.4 and that’s the only game you will ever need.

Fucktional

While microsoft also plays in the quarter to quarter economic BS they still have long term planning.

It’s precisely because they have a monopoly on enterprise class software that they could pull this off. That’s why the shift in euro-gov agencies to linux is such a big deal.

MS already has updates as a “free” service and windows insider which requires a paid azure sub which means they already use the threat of “security risks” to force companies to subscribe to azure, which is in effect equivalent to a sub to the OS.

I’m suggesting that they’re going to do what they’ve said they want to do. Just maybe on the longer term or in a novel way.

The biggest motivation they have to keep individual licenses OTP is it gets people used to the ecosystem (customer capture) and they’re massively profiting on all of your that data.

They certainly wouldn’t roll it out overnight but they’ve had their long term targets on OS as a service since Windows 8 and these things tend to come bundled.
