If you want to break out of this and find something new without too much of a learning curve you could try Illogical Impulse

It’s hyprland, modded and more avvessible.

To run games, you might need at least 32Gb. 64 Gb is sufficient in most cases. Still expensive af

Zorin is the best distro when you come from Windows. It works almost similarly so it’s easy to grasp for those who don’t want to tinker / learn a new DE.

I truly believe Nobara to be better suited for gaming than Bazzite. I don’t really get the hype. But then again, to each his own distro.

What a great read, thanks

xManager spotify. It that still works…

Aren’t dictionary bruteforcing really efficient ?

No it just works as long as you install the drivers…

Linux is free…

FIFA 99, Need for Speed : Underground, The Sims 2, C&C : Red Alert 2, SSX3, Black and White, LOTR 2 & 3, Burnout 3, Battlefield Vietnam, …

There was a time when they were good, but they fell out of grace in the second half of the 2000s

I can’t agree with you on this one. Sometimes, I think this is the kind of detail that benefits other games : the assets are there and can be reused, in other forms.

Plus, sometimes it’s better to make one great game than a plethora of good games.

RDR2 wasn’t my cup of tea but I have nothing bad to say about this game. It was a masterpiece, in all aspects and in all comes down, at the end, to the attention given to trivial things such as horse testicles.

I believe The Last of Us II actually portrayed this one thing oerfectly. At the beginning you can feel some of Ellie’s hesitation as she comes upon death, but the more the story unfolds and the more she becomes psychopathic. It’s hinted and it’s shown. The last Act of the game is her giving in to her PTSD. I think that, for once, this is absolutely brilliant.

The hell house fight is when I stopped playing the game. I think they did a good work with FFVII Remaster but… I also think that it’s really bad that you can’t go back to a place and go farming, that the materias cannot be moved so if you tried something that you did not like then tough luck fighting with whatever team you have.

Plus, I really miss the farming and the lack of “let me just fight some monsters for the sake of it”.

You can go for a really minimal install of Arch or Gentoo with no DE

To have the most secure machine possible, you might need a hardened kernel but you absolutely need to have SELinux (or equivalent) rules set up.

The easiest way to have a go at this would be to install OpenSuSE (any version will do, they all ship with SELinux ootb) and follow guides on how to setup SELinux permissions.

For a long time I thought KH to be the best game ever but… It is ! When you’re a teenager, when you’re going through angst. But when you’re a grown up, it is not as good.

It has to be Riku in Kingdom Hearts. He takes about 5 minutes or more to tell you that your path ends there and he actually delivers. Then he tells it again when you inevitably try again, because you can’t skip the bloody cutscene.

More than the camera : 24hrs of battery life tops is what you should expect.

I… Well… Thank you !

Does it surprise anyone ?
