I so so badly want Minetest to get popular and take over

Oh wow, I’ve joked that elon was just Edison 2.0 but this is just further proof

Until it can run my banking app it’s unfortunately not a contender, no matter how much I want it

I swear the Deck’s announcement was perfectly timed, at least for me. It was right as I was having major problems with windows and even then proton kinda just worked for me, and it’s only gotten better sense!

NVIDIA getting its shit together maybe?

That truly would be the year of the linux desktop

Unless my info is out of date that VR steam link still doesn’t work with Linux, it’s Valve so it’s a matter of time, but still…

I genuinely wish they had properly in forced lockdown for around 6 months, maybe then more of my friends who had covid would be alive

They used to be sure, but google has lied to me so many times in the past few months it’s ridiculous

I kinda want to see what the folks behind ublock origin would do if they did do that…

Can’t be worse than the experience with the ads…

Meanwhile I’m over here, not used windows on my own machine in more than 1.75 years and I don’t even touch the terminal most of the time, I know how some commands work, but I hardly touch them

I should really learn to do more with it, but I have my system setup and working how I like, So I don’t really have motivation to learn to do all this other cool stuff

Becouse SP3 was the first time Microsoft really let loose with the telemetry iirc

Nvidia can have it’s issues, but 1) they’re few and far between, and 2) they’re getting better all the time

Just so long as you didn’t want to play Starfield on release week

Oh hey, same here! I’ve always been pretty poor so open source programs were the easiest way to do a lot of things

And can I just say, GIMP opens way faster in linux it really took me by supprise the first time

Yeaaaaaah, I don’t know what Microsoft were thinking trying to force a unified UI on everyone… It didn’t work

I’m still hoping that one day I’ll be able to unlock my galaxy note 20 ultra

I don’t remember any version of Windows I actively use ever auto updating for me either, but that’s because I turned that shit off myself.

Not disagreeing with you, but when I turned off updates on win 10 it stopped it for a while, and then forced it no matter what I did in the middle of what I was doing one day (only to fail, bluescreen and revert, but that’s another story)

Never had a windows brick on me

Can I have your autograph? Never met anyone who’s never had windows brick itself for no discernible reason before!

Windows 7 was the last good version of windows.

Disagree, 7 wasn’t the worst but the last actually good version of windows was XP service pack 2

The main thing that we need imo is something like SteamOS that is installable on every PC and has the backing of valve, sadly it’s still limited to the deck

becouse it may not be the perfect desktop OS experience (for your average linux user anyway), but game mode is absolutely a game changer for people who just want to play games on their computer 90% of the time
