Yeah I heard he’s a bit of a prick anyways but I was torn when I first heard that cause I’m like justified anger but at the same time if my kid was one the punched id have beat the shit out of Zach. Detain them, fine, call the police to report it, okay. Arbitrarily lash out at a kid with physical violence over a non life threatening event? Ehhhhhh…
Sure, games. Proton/wine came a long ways but it’s far from perfect or has the same depth of software as native windows. Also potentially having to mess with lutris can be annoying. Graphics drivers are also better on windows too. If you’d like to try to argue this just look at protondb. Is it a 100% compatible with every title? No? Hmmm… Not to mention proton triggering some games anti cheats.
It’s also why there are several memes including the one posted just yesterday or the day before about “cheating” on Linux with windows for gaming. Plus the whole standard advice ive seen on Lemmy being “Linux for daily driving, windows partition for gaming.” Now again, why would that be the standard advice? https://lemmy.world/post/5834366
^—thread in question where Linux gamers commiserate their difficulties getting certain games to run on their Linux systems.
Linux is fine, windows is okay if you disable the telemetry, just use what ever os and software you want but it’s really silly to make false claims.
Lol Zach from scrubs almost beat up some kid who was a punkd crew member before they did the reveal.
"Asker: When you got punk’d, did you punch that kid for painting on your car? Because I’m pretty good friends with him and when he tells the story he said you were (very reasonably) pissed.
Zach Braff: I punched him in the stomach (as I recall). Who amongst you wouldn’t have? They edited it out though. You’re not allowed to punch little kids on MTV. Lame."
If you’ve never heard a foreign language spoken in your life does that mean it also originated on reddit?
ive heard this for years and i always laugh, “there is nothing windows does that linux doesn’t!” yeah, totally man.
MMOs too, back before I quit wow classic for good, my server grobbulus would have virtual raves like once a month or so. Someone would stream sick beats and you could tune in to that or use your own music. Crashed the server a few times with the amount of people who showed up.
When some stupid high percentage of animal test subjects die from the test, you would think they’d work on the product more before moving forward. Instead they’re like “welp caused paralysis and death in the majority of our animal test patients, this is totally ready for human tests!”
Omg it’s NFTs time to shine!!!

As the computer nerd in my friends/family circle, Im constantly being gifted old PCs from people. Some I keep and repurpose into servers/other things and others I just recycle for them. I also am an avid PC gamer so when my rig gets retired I usually upgrade the other servers internals from parts I had left over. Don’t know if something else is viable for you to keep costs down, even if you can get the PC without a HDD but everything else.
More specifically Nordic countries I guess, but surstromming. I understand even amongst them it’s a niche delicacy but just fermented gelatinous fish doesn’t sound like something that would be enjoyable to eat.
Lol I never once acted like you defended him, I simply said this new info doesn’t change my assessment of the situation.
Oh that makes it so much better /s.
Whether he never turned it on, turned it off, or never made it available to begin with, my feelings don’t change. He personally made the call that led to Ukrainian deaths while pretending to be a saint by his own admission. He’d have blood on his hands either way but at least that blood would have been soldiers who invaded a neighboring country not peaceful civs under attack by the very thing they were trying to destroy. So his reasoning doesn’t add up in my mind.
Supplied them? That’s a funny way of saying was paid for his services and then declined to provide said service randomly.
Look man I’m not trying to defend Howard here or imply you’re tech illiterate, or that all your issues clear up 100%, but have you by chance updated your driver’s? Mine were out of date enough starfield threw up a warning which I ignored and was not having a good experience with the same as you(iunno your ram or storage config but I was running on an average NVME and 32 gigs ram with 5600x and 6700xt). But after I updated a lot of the issues smoothed out, not all, but most. At 60 fps average with a mix of med high at 1080p though. Maybe worth a try?
There have been plenty of times they were, though name any country with 200+ years of existence and I’ll show you how they aren’t the good guys either from certain points of view. Ask Africa how they feel about some of the perceived “good guys” in the EU
I live in the basement of my house. Not because I have too or anything I just prefer too. Because of that, the majority of my PC/gaming stuff is downstairs in the same room. If you build them right the noise is a non issue.
Lol I love how behind the times academics can be. This literally was a big thing used to ddos streamers back in the day like 2010s-2015s. All that needed to happen was they accepted a call and since Skypes peer to peer the hacker instantly got their IP. I remember Destiny being targeted for a while by it.
Youtube literally flat banned any channel with CP in it. Regardless of what CP actually stood for, like say combat power in pokemon go… Lots of bigger YouTubers got hit with account closures for like a week before it got reversed.

You can make up all the reasons you want, the end result is the same. People use windows because the product works better and more reliably. If you want to split hairs be my guest but every metric windows wins against Linux in gaming. It has a higher user base, more software, better support, and as you said even entire businesses developing stuff for it because businesses go where the customers are. Sure you can say “oh they just greased some palms”, but if you knew anything about the gaming world that doesn’t mean jack shit if your games and hardware sucks. The graveyard of failed hardware and software prove that. As much as I love steam and I’m glad the steam deck is having success every other Linux based hardware attempt they’ve come up with has failed hard like their console and steam link. And what’s your point about some games running better? Some games run worse too, beyond the fact your statement admits not every game runs better, how does that make Linux superior? Your example about companies also doesn’t disprove anything because a company can do that…but hasn’t in the entire 40+ years of Linux existence…curious isn’t it? Also you can program driver’s for windows too for devices lol, how else do you think people tinker with stuff? I mean I’m using a PS3 eye as a webcam on my Windows PC rn with custom community made drivers just like Linux does …
