Linux is so much better than sex.

[-] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 117 points 7 months ago

Can you compile sex from source? Ha, didn't think so!

I compiled it for you :

fred@ButtWarmer:~/Work/ZZ/sex-1.0> ./a.out   
"Is that all?" croaked the nine-year-old cheerleader as the dribbling electric eel fucked her creamy chubbies and thrust his throbbing joy stick into her moist appendix scar.   
fred@ButtWarmer:~/Work/ZZ/sex-1.0>

It is pretty bad.

Can you freely modify and distribute sex? Not that I know of!

[-] papabobolious@feddit.nu 5 points 7 months ago

Charging money is actually illegal in most parts of the world

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

I distribute sex for free. Sue me.

Windows is kil

[-] HRDS_654@lemmy.world 27 points 7 months ago

Why would Windows users be crying. Most users have ambivalence/hate relationship with it.

This is just as contrived and boring as the console wars

[-] Secret300@sh.itjust.works 39 points 7 months ago

In my opinion not at all. Linux started as a project from a nerd and nerds around the world joined in. I know now a day's a lot of companies contribute but what they contribute is open for the nerds to use. Unlike the console wars where it's company vs company with fanboys picking sides.

Now it's now neck beards vs industry and that's way more interesting. I'm obviously picking the nerd/neck beard side cause fuck the big corp

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 13 points 7 months ago

Even worse, cause one side isn't giving a fuck about it.

Like, which Windows user cares that Linux is getting Windows-emulated games? Literally no one. Let alone enough to cry about it.

[-] phobiac@lemmy.world 19 points 7 months ago

Do you go to restaurants and complain there is food there? This is a place for linux memes.

[-] catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works 13 points 7 months ago

Yeah! You're cool cuz you don't care about this stuff. And also people who do care about this stuff are less cool than you. Yeah!

I prefer Linux as a OS, so I'm really happy that I can play games that aren't supported by devs. And it has benefits - since Linux is a better OS by a mile some games work better on it. For example Valheim on Windows is unplayable for me since it shuts down my computer after 5 - 20 mins, while on Linux it runs without problems and has smaller FPS drops in my gigantic castle. Maybe it's a bad example since it has support for Linux, but Ravenswatch doesn't and also has better performance on Linux through Proton.

I thought proton is an email/vpn company, do they have a gaming client like steam?

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 74 points 7 months ago

This proton isn't affiliated with the one you're talking about. Proton is a tool that valve developed based on wine that lets windows games run on Linux, especially the steamdeck

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton

[-] answersplease77@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago

I wish you answer me one more question. I bought games on steam that later found they're "Windows only". I can't play these games on the steam I installed on my linux pc. I can only play them on the steam of my windows pc.

Can I play them on linux using Proton? If yes, then this might allow me remove windows from my life completely

[-] FangedWyvern42@lemmy.world 38 points 7 months ago

Click Properties, then Compatibility. Select a Proton version from the menu. It should allow your games to run.

[-] Hazrod@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago

Yes you can, on Linux steam, go to the game's properties, then click on the compatibility tab, and finally check the"force the use of..." Line. You should then be able to install the windows game on Linux and play it using the proton tool automatically

[-] onelikeandidie@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago

If you can't find that tab, it could also be because you need to go to steam settings and enable steam play for all titles (which will let you use Proton with any game)

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 19 points 7 months ago

Search for the game you're looking to run on this site: https://www.protondb.com/

If it runs, you'll find reports on what it took to make it happen, if anything, and how well it runs

Look the games up in protondb for user experiences. Also Proton is not a Garantie. I have a great experience with proton and steam deck is running with proton, so valve makes money with proton and improve it daily. But it is NOT A SURE THING.

Again great tool, but it has a limit. E.g. valorant doesn't run.

It's too bad the native Linux versions of old id Tech 0/1/2/3/4 games aren't being posted on Steam.

And worse, for the old id Tech 0/1 games it's not even the Windows version, nor a native emulator, it's running the DOS version in the Windows version of DOSBox in Proton.

Although now I notice this is actually a remake, not the id Tech 1 original.

[-] nebula42@lemmy.today 20 points 7 months ago

You do know gzdoom exists, right? You can play old id games and games based on the doom engine natively by purchasing them and running the .wad file through gzdoom.

[-] Verat@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago

This is true, but for idtech 3 and 4 games there were official Linux binaries, but they arent distributed by platforms like steam, even though they already ship Linux versions of other games. Quake 4 or Doom 3 was I think the last of the official Linux binaries from Id.

Um, I tried Mint for gaming and while the community is strong on helping me figure out what was wrong with my video drivers and my Logitech steering wheel, i realized I could just not run Linux and spend the time actually playing my working game on Windows.

I'm not a Windows fanboy. The majority of people just want a turn key experience. Linux(for now) is not yet a trouble free experience.

[-] ma1w4re@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago

Bro tried one distro and condemned the entire span of Linux systems. Aight.

[-] NeatNit@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

You realise that having to try a whole bunch of other distros is so much worse compared to the "turn key experience" they're after, right? And it's a valid complaint. I generally agree with the sentiment, even though I've more or less sworn off Windows whenever I can possibly avoid it.

Blame the user and not the product. What are you, Tim Apple?

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Bro didn't even spend two weeks of his life fucking around with different distros and trying various workarounds and hacks trying to get them to work with his games before he just went back to playing games on a system he knows works. Aight

My favourite game Dead or Alive Xtreme Venus Vacation works again. Ciao!

[-] thecookingsenpai@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

Honestly Proton is great but Windows for gaming is still the best of the three main oses

[-] guskikalola@social.vivaldi.net 9 points 7 months ago

@thecookingsenpai @Titou Yet has to be said, I've been using linux for gaming for almost 2 years now, the amount of games you can play now compared to PlayOnLinux era is impressive.
I only run into issues when the game uses windows only anti-cheats, but I don't have many of those games ( I said goodbye to League now that they are adding Vanguard ), therefor I can play fully on Linux.
