Heroic Launcher, Lutris, Bottles, or just launching them through the command line if you really want to for some reason, are your options. Heroic I just started using and it’s great. It’s especially good for games from other stores, but you can add anything to it. Lutris is pretty good, but you have to add everything manually (which you’ll have to do no matter what for what you’re asking about). Bottles is functional, but it is much harder to use than the others, but probably lighter weight if that matters to you at all (and I’ll tell you now, it doesn’t).

Yes. Trump, during his previous term, moved the US Israel embassy to Jerusalem, which implies Israel owns it, rather than the shared control its supposed to have. That’s just one example of how Trump had already moved the US towards full support of Israel’s goals over Palestine.

Do I think Biden or Harris would stop them? No. Do I think Trump is going to do everything he can to empower them? Yes. He’s already done some of this and I’m sure it will continue now, as he’s indicated it would. You’d really have to shive your head in the sand to not see it coming.

No, but they probably did by not explicitly telling them to finish the job and giving them free reign to destroy every Palestinian.

I’m not sure Trump even knows there’s an area called “the Americas.”

The comment above says they want to replace their W10 desktop, so it isn’t what they want. If it’s what you want then fine, but I was writing the comment for someone who wants a desktop, not a console. If you want a console, go ahead and wait or use Bazzite. If you want a desktop then the best options are already available and SteamOS isn’t going to be it.

I think that’s mostly fixed at this point. I have AMD, but I’ve heard Nvidia is handled better now. Nvidia keeps everything closed source, so everyone is fucked, but support is improving. Make a Bootable USB of Garuda (or whatever distro you choose, but Garuda Dragonized I’d expect to have the drivers) and try it out. It’s very low effort to try.

AMD open-sources everything, so their stuff works everywhere. That’s why FSR is always available, because it works on any device and is open source, so it’s easy to support. DLSS only works on Nvidia devices and requires a lot more effort for developers to support, so they often only do it if Nvidia pays them because it costs them money to implement an extra solution and not everyone will even be able to use it.

Yeah, the driver thing is pretty much solved at this point. If you have AMD there’s literally nothing to worry about. If you have Nvidia, you’re probably also good to go, but slightly less guaranteed. Make a Bootable USB of the distro you choose and try it to see if your hardware is supported. It’s low effort and no risk.

Something you might not know is the drivers come packaged with the kernel, so you literally never have to worry about updating your drivers. They’re just there in the background up to date. It awesome.

The experience with Linux is so much smoother than Windows because the system manages most things for you. All your applications will be updated by the package manager, so you don’t need to go to websites to download updates. Graphics drivers are just there. Everything is just handled for you.

It’s built on top of Arch. The distro I’m using is Garuda, which is also built on Arch, and there’s a gaming version that includes everything you need to play games immediately. No one should use SteamOS probably for a desktop. They should use something like Garuda. SteamOS is for a console-like experience.

Dude, you don’t need SteamOS for a desktop. Just download a more widely used desktop distro. I use Garuda, and it’s great for starting up gaming.

SteamOS will be great for a console-like experience out of the box, which is not what you want for desktop.

Remember to use protection and make sure everyone consents. Your first time can be exciting, but you need to be safe too. Have fun!

Yeah, at this point Blender is ahead in a lot of areas already. It’s just that companies are slow to change and also (I assume) they think it looks less professional to use the free software, regardless of the massive advantages like new employees already being familiar with it.

Yeah, that’s something I really like about Lemmy. You can have actual conversations. On Reddit, on even an unpopular thread, any comment would be flooded by replies from other people. You couldn’t just talk with one person.

I don’t mind other people joining in, but reddit makes it impossible to do 1-on-1.

And we got Armored Core soon after ER. FromSoft still puts out games reasonably often, while still being high quality. Some people may not like every game, but I don’t think anyone can say they’re putting out garbage like some other studios.

The problem is all the AAA publishers just keep increasing budgets to keep up. This creates a situation where games are so expensive they can’t take risks, so they just follow a formula and are boring and generic. That’s how we’ve gotten to where we are now. AAA games are failing because their budgets are too large. They need to make more smaller, interesting and unique games rather than one massive budget game.

I have essentially fully turned away from AAA personally. Thinking about it, I can’t actually tell you the last one I played. Indie games are where all the good stuff is.

The first-person shooter genre used to be called Doom Clones because they were all viewed as rip offs of Doom (which, to be fair, many were). Genre conventions are created by copying what others have done. Souls is a game series, which has been so influential that it became a genre.

No one needs to “offer” Proton. It’s available freely for anyone. I think some people think Proton is a Steam thing. It isn’t. Yeah, Valve did a lot of work on it, which is great, but it isn’t limited to them. Vlave has essentially unlimited resources, and I’m happy they spent some making improvements for WINE, but GOG does not have nearly the same resources. I wouldn’t expect them to put their effort into that. Valve only did because they were building hardware that they wanted to run Linux.

Additionally, give a copy of all the documents to your lawyer to release in the case of your death. Multiple Deadman switches are better than one, especially one that’s controlled by a person and not just hoping your cloud service doesn’t go down after you’re dead.

Yeah, I want to hate it (and I do) but the idea is great. It’s just that there’s no way in hell the AI is doing the same job as a teacher. It’d also be very hard to tell if it’s working correctly. Who’s going to tell them it’s not? The student?

I do think we need to modify our educational system to better suit people with different needs, but this should be through increased funding for more teachers, not AI to increase profits.

The reason why these systems are put into place is to empower people who had wrongdoing done to them. If they fail to work, those people should use alternative methods to force consequences on them. That lecture recording should have been leaked. It could have been accidentally left somewhere and gotten out.

Anyone who thinks OP asking about Assembly with this meme should play the game Turing Complete. It’s great. You have to design a computer all the way from the most basic logic gates (I think you only get a NAND gate to start), designing an ALU and CPU, creating your own machine language, and writing your own programs in the language you designed, and it’s all simulated the whole time. Machine language is pretty advanced as far as things go.
