So this is anecdotal I know, but I work on a Mac, so I’ve only ever held on to Windows for gaming. (Sidenote: The Mac isn’t my choice, either, but it has a terminal, and it does the job)
I’ve definitely tried to go fully Linux in the past, but it was always gaming that killed it for me. Wine was just never very consistent for me in this area.
Long story but, I recently lost my gaming machine, and was gifted a friends old one. Also a long story, but he ended up putting Linux on it for me. I figured I’d use it as is until payday before buying a key for Windows.
Holy shit gaming on Linux become has easy! Steam/proton is amazing!
I won’t lie, it’s not always as simple as install and run, but the tweaking that’s been required has been orders of magnitude simpler than what it used to be. Click a box 90% of the time, Click a box and add a run parameter for another 5%.
The only games that haven’t worked for me are Starfield and Cyberpunk (accounting for the last 5%.)
Starfield might just be too much for this old machine, but Cyberpunk I have no idea. Neither are a huge loss to me when Balders Gate, and Elite Dangerous are running fine. Also long standing favourites like Just Cause 3/4 work perfectly too.
I’m thrilled and a little shocked to say I think I’m finally done with Windows


It’s fun watching science verify what people have known for centuries


Care to elaborate? I don’t see how having the leaves in a bag is inferior to having them loose


I use DDG when coding and generally find it to be a bit nicer, but from the article it sounds like they’re prone to the same issues. Anecdotally, I have noticed non-code queries do seem to be similarly crap
ETA: You can set it as default in Chrome too, under Settings -> Search Engine


What is everyone else using instead?


Not op, but this looks what they’re talking about.

I’ll take “Unethical accounting” for 500, Alex


In my opinion this is the best outcome. The technology is not ready, and it’s potential for abuse is far greater than it’s potential for good at present. It needs another 10 years minimum to ensure it can at least be controlled to some extent. Breaking these models is trivially easy at the moment.
Microsoft won’t put it on ice, but maybe they’ll fuck it up badly enough that people will forget about it for a while. We’re currently at the “VR in the 80’s” point in the journey, imo.


Juuust gonna drop this here again

Interesting. Did you have a laser or a scalpel? I had mine last month, and haven’t noticed any difference at all.


I suspect the 2 decades might have more to do with your balls hanging lower than the vasectomy lol
This is basically my assumption whenever I hear “CEO X says RTO is the bestest thing.” My first thought is always “I wonder how much money CEO X has in commercial real estate”
