As someone who has done a lot of distro hopping in the past, I’ve found that going for a stable release that is widely used as a daily driver is superior for gaming than “gaming specific” linux distros, largely on the basis that the gaming distros have routinely had buggy UIs, driver issues, and a variety of unexpected and undesired behavioral problems tied to the array of “gaming adjacent” software installed, most of which you can install yourself with little to no effort and most of which you probably don’t want or need in the first place.

Great thing is that since it’s open source someone can just fork the project and continue development in a different direction.

Technology@lemmy.ml•YouTube has now begun skipping videos altogether for users with ad blockers
7·2 years agoExtrapolating from this, we can say that Youtube hosts around 2.5 to 3 exabytes (2.5 to 3 million terabytes) of data. Interestingly, the total volume of data on the internet is, as of the end of 2023, around 120 zettabytes, so Youtube only makes up around 0.0025% of the total volume of all that data.
Sounds like a hell of your own making. Always change the background to something generic. Like a nice tree. Always. Nobody gives a shit about trees.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.ml•Paradox confirm no Linux support for Prison Architect 2 but investigating Steam Deck
1·2 years agoThat said, how is this worse than the whole slew of games about US soldiers killing people across the world, almost always portrayed as the cool protagonists?
Uh, it’s not. Those are fucking terrible, too. Arguably worse. In fact, where did I say those were better?

Linux Gaming@lemmy.ml•Paradox confirm no Linux support for Prison Architect 2 but investigating Steam Deck
1·2 years agoThe idea of a “Prison Architect” series of games is just conceptually wild to me. I wonder if in a hundred years this will have the same ring to it that a game like “Slave Plantation Architect” would have today. Just remarkably crass and tasteless.
