Even if he found the hard drive is there any chance it would still be functional? I can’t see it surviving the crusher let alone 13 years in a landfill site

That makes sense. Is there anything specific to bazzite you like or do you think you could get pretty much the same experience on any immutable distro?

Why are you still using it if you’re having this many issues? Is it just because you don’t want to go through the hassle of a reinstall at the moment or are there features that you don’t want to go without?

They’re already making a film about it, this was inevitable

Unfortunately that doesn’t work, the best I can get is the screens wake up and I get a black screen with a mouse cursor. I then have to restart sddm for anything else to work

Careful, Nintendo might sue you for watching this

It used to be about 50/50 now it fails 100% of the time

Do you also have an Nvidia gpu?

I think it’s just that the majority of users don’t care what the platforms they use do, it’s just a vocal minority that complain about the issues and even fewer who actually try any of the alternatives

I started playing red dead redemption 2 again. I got about 2/3 of the way through when it first came out on PC and then got distracted by other games, and it’s now been so long I just started again since I couldn’t remember where I got to. I forgot quite how good it was!

A couple of years ago they pushed out an update for the enterprise version of Windows Defender that deleted every single program shortcut from the start menu and desktop on every single device. There’s no way that was tested at all

Most games with anti-cheat refuse to run on Linux even if the anti-cheat itself supports it. And some anti-cheats just don’t work on Linux anyway, I believe the ones that do only support it by just not running when they detect they’re on Linux. If you’re interested you can check which games are supported here: https://areweanticheatyet.com/ but bear in mind it could change at any time (for example Rockstar broke GTAV a few weeks ago)

Not the person you replied to but they’re probably talking about anti-cheat

You wouldn’t notice because you’d be dead. Your clone wouldn’t notice because it would think it was you. Your friends and family wouldn’t notice because they’d think your clone was you.

It’s definitely not that for me as I’m on Nvidia!

Yes that’s pretty much it, there’s a strip around 3/4 of the way down both displays that has white line flicker across it whenever there’s any movement on either screen.

Yeah I’m definitely above the relevant versions for kde and Nvidia

That’s a good idea, I’ll try the endeavour OS live environment as that should be close enough to my setup

How would I tell if that’s the case? And I guess there’s nothing I can do about it if that is the cause?

Honestly looking at the article this seems way less intrusive than pre-roll and mid-roll video ads. If this was to replace them I’d be ok with that. But this is Google so of course it’s just going to be as well as, so my adblocker is staying on for as long as it works
