Culf, 6 miesięcy temu do games w 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?

Switched to Linux (mint) recently.

All my games run (almost) perfect and (almost) everything has been working perfectly. Overall it is much nicer than Windows and isn’t that hard getting used to.

Would much recommend!

Been Linux exclusively for 20 years. Win 11 sure isn’t going to change that

Imagine that, Windows 11 can remember everything you did in the past 3 months, it’s making sure that you didn’t forget about Office 365, Xbox Live subscriptions, and about Edge, the browser embedded deeply in the OS…

Sometimes, for your convenience, it will put Edge as the default, but you totally can change it back to what it was!

Are you sure you don’t want to switch? You’re missing a lot there…

I despise Microsoft just as much as you do, but I’ve never encountered the things you just wrote. Ist that a home edition problem?

I’ve enjoyed Linux since Windows MEllennium Edition convinced me that I didn’t like paying a lot, in money and time, to be an unpaid product testing guinea pig. A work friend put Windows 2000 on that laptop when ME went bad. I used it until a got a blue screen of death one day, and switched to Linux. The 1st was a $230 ePC that could be had with Windows XP or XanderOS (a flavor of Linux). I chose the latter, and had a great time of it. I’ve since used Mint and Ubuntu.

I like palworld, unfortunately its got a memory leak somewhere when playing with proton that causes it to eat shit and die

MyNameIsAtticus, 6 miesięcy temu

That’s odd. I’ve been playing with proton too and haven’t run into it. Do you mind if I ask what version of proton you’re using?

If i remember correctly it was with 9.0.3, i did a little digging and its because os some opengl fuckery x nvidia going worng. Been a hot minute tho and it could have been fixed

I just deleted windows and installed Bazzite Linux. Everything just works

Not much this week, been looking a lot at the Switch 2 trailers.

I’ve played Heavenly Bodies with a friend. We liked it, although it wasn’t really designed for two people.

I’m back to Fire Emblem Engage, played chapter 16 which took me ages.

I’m over here trying to play some PS2 games I didn’t get around to when I was younger. A few hours into Dark Cloud and wow that is still a fun game.

I tried out going 100% Linux a year ago. Unfortunately I was playing one of the very few games that has Linux issues. 100% CPU all the time was bugging me. It’s not the fault of Linux. Anyway, that’s how it played out. I may be tempted to try again soon.

I jumped ship to Linux Mint almost a year ago. No Microsoft products live here anymore. No regrets.

What happens if still use win 10?

You are compromising yourself, though I think you’ll still get security patches for a bit longer

Lv_InSaNe_vL, 6 miesięcy temu

October is when security patches for windows 10 will stop. Its when it goes full out of support. LTSB will continue getting security patches for a couple years though.

You’ll be more vulnerable to malware because it won’t be patched against newly discovered exploits.

TheFANUM, 6 miesięcy temu

You can’t. Every single hack/exploit that goes unpatched will be a gaping door for hackers

racketlauncher831, 6 miesięcy temu

All you guys said is true. You could get hacked blah blah blah. But to a gamer, a machine exclusively for gaming doesn’t take any of that as a concern. Want to hack my machine? Go ahead! As long as you don’t delete my games, be my guest. I don’t save credit card information on it anyway.

But none of that happens in my case. I don’t game on or run Windows. I’m just here to provide a point of view.

Your local network is compromised, not just 1 windows device. It could potentially leak enough personal information for more targeted attacks.

The chances are slim but AI may enable targeted hacking at scale. I simply wouldn’t risk downloading shit on a device with known security vulnerabilities, without any scope of fixes.

I moved from Win 10 to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed 2 months ago. Going very well so far, even for music production and gaming. I also got a friend of mine to dual-boot Tumbleweed/Win11, coming from Win11.

Emerald, 6 miesięcy temu do games w 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?

I’ll keep using linux on my main pcs and I’ll still keep using windows 10 on my secondary laptop

I finally finished Avowed! I really had fun playing it, and given that the map looks like it has more areas, I hope there's an expansion soon.

Also played through Atomfall as well, though it wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. I didn't have as much fun playing it as I did Avowed, but there were some nice, spooky sections that I enjoyed.

Currently achievement hunting Kona before it gets removed from GamePass. The one for not using any vehicles is such a pain, lol.
