I also work from home and use my work laptop for work only. Not even googling stuff, nothing. Just work. Never even opened the media player or went to youtubes website once.

I have my own computer running on a separate screen and I can do and watch whatever the fuck I want during working hours. I can play a game or watch a movie and nobody knows. Its that simple.

Same with phones. Never use work phone for personal stuff.

Its not even being tech savvy, just common sense ffs.

The text message representation of having a phone call and going through a tunnel mid sentence.

Sure, they didn’t unlock the door to tell the person the door is locked, because the store is closed. What a fucking brainfart you having mate?

Recently switched to Linux Mint.

There are really just a couple extra steps to set up Linux for gaming. In my opinion it takes less time to install proton ge, Lurtis or Heroic than downloading and installing GPU drivers on windows:)

For 90% I just download the game via Steam and enable Proton GE (if its not native) and play it straight away.

In some cases if Im not happy with performance I check the Proton DB page to see what settings/proton version/launch commands other people are using and that solves it 9 out of 10.

If you have GoG, Uplay, Epic, etc games just use Heroic or Lutris. Again, first time setup can take 20-30 min using a video tutorial, but after that its all good to go.

Thanks, yes projects like Heroic or Lutris are great, I use both.

It’s just the fact that one of the all time most requested feature on GoG is Linux support for many years, yet its ignored constantly. Its just disappointing.

800 games on Steam, 200 on GoG. I love the DRM free stuff, but Steam has so many great features its on a whole other level to be honest.

+Steam deck and Linux support is a huge positive.

GoG Galaxy is great, but also doesn’t have a Linux client, which makes it less convenient. Still GoG has so many gems not available anywhere else that I am willing to split my game library just for the classics.

Sounds like you had one specific issue, which escalated to this level.

I’m on steam for almost 15 years, had issues with refunds, serial keys, hardware support, account issues and steam deck hardware replacement. Every time they resolved it in a friendly and professional manner within hours.

I’m not saying your opinion is invalid, but stating things like, they are only reachable via social media is a huge exaggeration at best.

Thoughts and prayers 🙏

Sorry, I have a Radeon rx580, no experience with Nvidia yet.

Thank you. I will look into it!

Unless you want to play recent multiplayer AAA titles your steam library will work with little to no tinkering.

There is a website Check My Deck, which is originally designed for steam deck users, but linking your steam library you can check how many of your games will run out of the box, and how many require some additional steps on Linux/Proton.

For the ones not on the list you can check ProtonDB for guides and opinions from other Linux users.

Thank you. I have a relatively big GoG library, so lutris is already installed :)

So far loving it!

That is for later, but definetly will do some experimenting with the deck.

I dont know you but it means a lot :)

Thank you! Yes, it needs to be enabled there. Its basically just 3 extra clicks and the game is good to go :)

And make the direction randomized for added excitement

Put a conveyor belt on the floor which can go both directions, plus some great tunes. Like Mama from Spice Girls

So much haha, let me get a minion reaction picture, brb

Smoking, drinking and gambling never ends well. Stay away from addictions.

Don’t try to proof how manly you are to your friends/girls. It rarely pays off. Its ok to have a veggie dish at the restaurant instead of a bloody steak. Its ok to not speed with your car to look cool. Its ok to wear whatever the fuck you want as long as you like it, it fits well and its practical for you. Do what you like and be proud of it.

Always save time for your hobbies. Growing up doesn’t means you can’t have fun. If you are in a relationship make sure your partner gives you enough space and time for yourself.
