What you asked me to do was overly onerous for a discussion. Even if I found the links and gave you them, I will be told there isn't a problem (especially judging by the username) …

I find you can get a fair way with using backports. I am running the latest kernel and pipewire gubbings.

Debian 13 has mesa 25 which seems to be the latest or very close to the latest and installing an updated kernel was trivial via backports. People exaggerate the problems of using a…

I didn't like it at all for FPS

No the correct choice is what I want to use and it is Debian. Distro-hopping doesn't fix your problems and you will end up with either the same issues or more issues by distro-hopp…

I've had zero issues on Windows. None at all. I have a AMD GPU. Linux issues have been poor performance generally. Once I installed kernel 6.16 that was fixed.

They are finally adding the option to setup a user desktop to the installer in a build shortly. Which needed to be done years ago IMO. They are doing some outreach on their YouTube…

I have a Steam Link and the Original Steam controller. The manufacturing while perfectly functional isn't that high quality. This looks similar. Kinda like a mid-ranged PC case qua…

Their previous generation controller wasn't great (I have one). I got it on sale and the haptive stuff didn't work to well IMO. I have a 8bitdo controller and they are really good.…

Gaming on Linux is hit and miss, depending on the distro you use and your desktop environment. Some games should be launched with gamescope if you are using Gnome/GDM To have HellD…

Retroarch is already on Steam as well as other emulators. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1118310/RetroArch/ Even if you didn't want to use the Steam versions. Steam OS is essen…

They have been trying to make VR thing since the 90s. It has never reached mass appeal and never will. I can't wear one of those headset (I get severe motion sickness).

You are asking for something unreasonable i.e. I go through possibly several months of YouTube history in a comment section argument to "prove" that there people in the Linux commu…

> I went with the former, because somewhere above, you told somebody off for their innocent little left-pad sticker. I didn't tell anyone off. I honestly don't see what amusing abo…

> if literally everyone around you is saying that you are wrong (Including your friends, even), then maybe it is time for some soul searching. No I said they don't listen to what I…

I am not going back through months worth of YouTube history to satisfy people have insinuated that I have been lying on a claim that isn't even that controversial. I mainly watch c…

You don't need my permission to do what you want. I am sorry I sound dismissive, but a lot of the so called humour is a bit passe IMO. I didn't mean to sound rude to you.

Feigning urgency is a well known tactic to get people worked up and worried to spur them into action. It is a well known manipulation tactic.

I am mainly talking about YouTube. I mainly lurk on other platforms, but the same people are there.

There is a tribalism aspect to all of this. I also get people want to personalise stuff. I drive an old 4x4 and modded it (nothing too crazy), and I am planning on getting an Armst…

Ok. You got me on that one. Mainly because it is a statement of fact.

No it isn't. I cannot do anything meaningful about it. I have written in the past to MPs (many times). I was either ignored, or I was told I didn't know what I was talking about ev…

No. I just can't remember who these accounts are because I pretty much insta-block the them from my feed. The reason I am complaining about this is I was trying to find some good i…

It isn't I won't say. It is I can't remember because I pretty much insta-block it when I see it. Some notable examples of stuff I've seen in Linux / Tech land the last few months: …

I gave an example of something I remembered from last month. I can't remember the exact name of the account, and I normally block them afterwards or mute them from the feed. The re…
