- Comment on How did it come to be that only two companies supply all of the world's PC graphics chips? 2 weeks ago:
it is probably the linux nvidia driver, because, as i mentioned before, it runs smoothly on windows on the same machine on higher settings

maybe i wasn’t clear, but i tried 720p on both the desktop and deck, and the nvidia desktop was still choppy

i haven’t used it, only read some available documentation, but it seems like a subscription service to access a server with stuff of dubious legality on it, but please correct me if i’m wrong. i kinda want to get into it but, as i was saying, i fail to see how it is better than torrenting

i get how usenet is better than streaming from a popup filled website, but i fail to see how it is better than torrenting
qbittorrent has built-in search as well - Comment on How did it come to be that only two companies supply all of the world's PC graphics chips? 2 weeks ago:
i’m not sure if you meant like deck vs desktop, but if so, because the deck is a handheld, you can play anywhere

i think you probably meant it the other way, can the deck run it in 1080p, but i just tried it in 720p on my desktop and it’s still choppy, although it does make the average fps higher.
also it’s not unplayable, it’s annoying just annoying, and the knowledge that on windows it can do stable 60 fps with “maximum” settings (that’s below “ultra” and “extreme”) in 1080p
also also, this is a “special” thing, most games run just as smoothly as on windows, forzas, and the “new” mafia games are the few exceptions out of my 1000+ games library - Comment on How did it come to be that only two companies supply all of the world's PC graphics chips? 3 weeks ago:
they point was about “not being able to game on amd”
yeah duh mobile chips are less performant, but still forza horizon 4–5 runs better on my steam deck than on my desktop pc with a 2080rtx in linux - Comment on How did it come to be that only two companies supply all of the world's PC graphics chips? 3 weeks ago:
lol “not being able to run games” have you heard of a little thing called the steam deck?

magicka 1 and 2 has couch and/or online coop, it’s challenging, chaotic fun, with some pretty funny jokes
if you get into emulation, cooptimus hides older platforms under “classic”, but it has another dropdown to filter them more precisely - Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 4 weeks ago:
well tbf one of the detailed sex scenes (in the book) is between a 30 yrs old khal drogo with a 13 year old Daenerys Targaryen, and it’s being depicted as a good thing, he’s the first guy that cares about her

idk where you looked, protondb.com is a good database for this stuff, from your later reply insurgency sandstorm and hund showdown are both “gold” rated, they should be okay
but the thing is … you could just try for yourself, for free - Comment on End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? 4 months ago:
i have just recently found out that from ps4 and xbox one up you can play fortnite and a bunch of other f2p titles, without subscription and with mouse and keyboard, with crossplay to every other platform

i have an older desktop with 10, it doesn’t have tpm, but there is a slot, i could get one and upgrade but also i mostly use linux on it
but i still feel like i’m going to lose something and it stresses me out a bit - Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 5 months ago:
i got a 4 a few years back and it’s still works great, still gets security updates. it still has the default android on it, so i’ve been looking into alternatives but it seems complicated. then again, i managed to switch to linux on pc so maybe it’s not so bad
