They are trying hard to push people to linux.

Another continent from Germany, yes another continet from you, probably but unfortunately for me I live in the same shithole country as system 76. that being said the hardware is all made over on that side of the pond anyway since they are just rebranded Cleavo / Sager hardware anyway.
- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 1 week ago:
No worries bud, the mechanics for 1 and 2 has always been shit. People sucked it up and played anyway because the writing was so damn good. If you can’t get into the game because the mechanics or controls are bad thats the games fault not yours.
I have been trying to replay both for years and everytime I give up after a few hours because the experience is just painful.

From GTA to GTA san andreas are all a pain now because the control scheme is so outdated, The pcs ports are even worse because they have the shittiest jankiest controls imaginable but they had that from the start. GTA 4 is borderline unplayable because of the trash camera controls but that was true when it came out as well.
The original Metro 2033 is a bit of a slog to get through as well if you can even get it to run.

My daughter wanted to wear my headset when I was playing battlefield once. It was so funny listening to those losers rage because they Were getting stomped by a 5 yr old girl. Now days she still puts it on from time to time and it’s still hilarious.

yeah its a shame they aren’t better manufacturers out there for this sort of market. Even first party hardware seems pretty trash these days long gone are the days when a boutique PC manufacturer would go out of their way to make something that stands out. Falcon Northwest is the last holdout I know of and even they are nothing like they used to be.

This is just another rebranded Cleavo/Sager laptop anyway, it wasn’t purpose built to be a linux machine.

“finally” as if system 76 doesn’t already exist.
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 weeks ago:
Good to know. Being able to run both at the same time will probably help ease the transition.
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 weeks ago:
I already pay for plex pass but I’m going to start looking into jelly fin out of principle. I will not support the enshitification of a service I use and this is how it starts. Soon they will have tiered subscriptions and then the cheap one will be taken away and the cheapest paid one will be stuffed with ads then all tiers will be stuffed with ads then they will jack up prices again or charge more for sharing with family or block it all together to force your family to get their own sub and the circle of enshitification will be complete.

Fair point but if a dumbfuck like Trump understands it then it’s much sadder that others don’t.

I wish more people understood no one can stop you if there is no one to stop you.
