I know it will fail but I really hope it will fail big time to accelerate the dowfall of this soulless corporate piece of shit company.

My wifes old laptop died and I got an ancient gaming laptop from a colleague and put Linux Mint on it. It works great.

She uses it for studying and some light gaming (Stardew Valley). It just works. She never used Linux before but had zero issues using it and she even said its just like Windows, just faster.

Its just not sustainable for my adult life to log in to whatever live service trash daily and compete agains faceless humans, who have more free time and advantage against a casual player.

Also the state of live service games is pure trash for decades now. Everything needs to be a copy of the 3 most popular titles with some kind of rpg progression and cosmetic items for real world money.

Unless it has AI I’m not interested

Hey Randy, show us a magic trick and fuck off!

From the previews and reviews it reminds me of AC Origins/Odyssey with SW theme. For some reason I can’t get excited for these type of games anymore.

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.

I agree, someone should have highlighted it, this is just confusing.

Thank you I love you for the link!

Textbook capitalism. Ruin Game Pass pricing with CoD, to boost some sub numbers “for a while”. Short term profit, to please those execs!

Left a review on Steam in 2014, its time to update lol

Totally not searching the web for Stoya

Your answer sounds like it was lifted from a LinkedIn motivational post.

College favours the rich, who can afford it and I don’t think people with higher education are better at planning their future.

Lots of people are forced through college by their parents, often backed up with money and safety nets of security - if they fail the first time they just throw more money at it and try again.

I guess 5 rounds of 90 minutes long multi-stage interview process is much more efficient, where people selling an idealised version of themselves in imaginary scenarios.

Also talking to HR/recruitment department, who has no idea of the actual job is a great way to find the right candidate.

…its ridiculous

Cant you find out the answer for these questions with a series of short tests?

I once applied for a job at IBM and instead of an initial interview they sent me a series of interactive tests to check my skills. I ended up moving to another country and didn’t follow through, but still liked this approach.

Also in the EU I can see lots of job listings are using now a system where you either have a certain type of education/degree or a certain previous experience to be eligible to apply.

Still you need to have knowledge of the specific field, but technically if you started at the bottom with an entry level low skill job you can get higher with experience alone and without a university degree.

Nick names can be brutal, they are like the bad photos on the internet, once something its there, it always will be there. I got one during high school, nothing unflattering, just didnt like it at all and these days rarely hear it, but sometimes I meet an old friend/classmate and it comes up and hits like a truck every fucking time.

The rest of the snails chilling under other leaves

Thanks. I only had so far Linux experience with my Steam Deck, I will look into these distros.

Sweet, thanks. I want to start something straightforward and so far Mint looks very promising.
