Beside the triggers, I really did like the Steam controller. My favourite is the touchpad which makes noises which I associated with Fallout which is oddly pleasing to hear

I mean, I have seen online of people playing older Windows games on Linux, Steam Deck especially. Even though it most likely not as huge market compared to [insert new game], there’s still fair share people that would buy the old game, even if it may be troublesome to run especially on Windows 10/11.

I can’t imagine the alternative be less stretchy compared to Pornhub, not that Pornhub isn’t a sketchy site in the first place

but I’m not sure USB-C output exists.

Not that I’m aware of, no. It’s either HDMI or (if you getting the older Blu-ray player) one has Composite or Component output.

Now I’m also questioning the need of BluRay/image upgrade, as it shouldn’t be too expensive.

You can always get it second-hand which would be cheaper than getting it new and make sure you don’t connect to the internet.

Also as someone that has BluRay player, I prefer BluRay over DVD disc for it being in HD and also, it can still play DVDs. If you already have BluRay collection or don’t mind spending a bit to get it on that format, go for it.

They made “datapack” which is a way of playing with mods without having to use third-party mod loaders like Forge and Fabric but (don’t quote me on this as I’m not a mod developer) it’s not as powerful compare to the mod loaders.

I doubt you can really buy those TVs anymore without it being a “Smart” TV. The best you can do is disable the Internet Connection on your TV. I have heard couple people suggesting commercial TV but I’m not too sure how great they would be for gaming and more made for well… staying on most the time, inside at a shop.

Dustin Broke from The Sims 2. He tried to help his family while her stay-at-home mum is pregnant and her husband drown from a pool. I was rooting for him, even if he was a getaway driver.

I can only understand the concern if it related to how many the chat room and users are mostly created in offical Matrix instance instead more be self-hosted and even that is a reach

though I occasionally play Fortnite with my son

Just an FYI, Fortnite isn’t supported on Linux so if you still want to dabble with Linux, maybe give a try dual-booting.

Yes but I do recommend installing the two OSes on a different storage device. That’s what I did for my PC.

As a Linux Noob, Linux was lot easier than I expect it to be. Think it was me having the “This isn’t Windows so I might as well as research about anything Linux related” mindset which it paid off for me. It got to point where Windows is now my secondary OS (Mainly to use it to use Tomb Editor to make custom Tomb Raider levels which is annoying to get it running with Wine which I don’t know how to troubleshoot at all.)

It’s ironic how it’s now my main OS and if you told me several years ago that I would be mostly using Linux, I would think you’re talking total nonsense.

I remember someone on Discord server I used to be on kept telling people to “use Linux” which back then, I thought it was some scary OS for people who’s tech savvy and wrote him off to be annoying. It was few years when I have my own laptop as early birthday present that I find Windows 10 annoying and remembered Linux exist so I run up a virtual machine and watch so many videos on YouTube about it. Then, I made USB-Boot and installed Linux Mint.

Far from perfect but I feel so much more comfortable using Linux over Windows, feels so much more smoother

I have heard it does but it was generally just an example of “Try this software but note it may not have this feature if this means lot to you” and suggest others like maybe Krita then?

• Linux isn’t Windows. I know that is a no-brainer but it needs to be said so it won’t be as 1:1 to Windows.
• How to install software both in terminal and as well as software manger GUI. Bonus points about compiling software from places like GitHub.
• Packages type and their pros and cons
• Trying to run Windows application via Wine (or some manager like Bottles or Lutris) as well as comparing running same Windows Application from Linux and Windows.
• Alteratives to popular software and list out what it can do and what it doesn’t have so user can see if that feature it doesn’t have would affect them. For example, GIMP doesn’t have full CMYK support which for most users, it isn’t a big idea but for people that want to edit images to be ready for printing, they might want to keep that in mind.

I’m currently using GrapheneOS on my Pixel phone I brought secondhand so think I should (for now) be okay?

Otherwise, Linux phone looks interesting but it just relearning both another OS (like iPhone users trying to learn Android and vice versa) and also just I have low income so buying new tech is just expensive.

I don’t want to throw myself a deepend to an OS that I not as familiar with beside on my desktop and Raspberry Pi. Personally, I prefer to know what’s there before I just go blind so at least I can manage my expectation than expected it to do 1:1 stuff that I do on my phone right now.

Hope this means we eventually get The Sims modding scene to the Fediverse as dispute them loving Tumblr, I always find it clunky to try find CCs

Fed up of Microsoft’s BS and it’s inconsistent UI/UX design. Made my very first PC build around last Christmas and have dual-boot of both Linux Mint and Windows 11 and I been mostly fine with Linux.

The only footage of Miley checking if anyone talk about Hannah Montana Linux /j

PeerTube is the ‘YouTube alternative’ I can somewhat get around but the issue I have it has few content creators I would watch. Otherwise, just seems more of a concept than an actual replacement for now.

I hate Odysee, it has many far-right content creator which I remember seeing much of pro-nazi video on there. It’s beyond me people keep suggesting that god awful platform for people that hate YouTube for allowing far-right wingers on YouTube and doing barely anything about it.

Yes, yes it is.

Reminded me when some American food critic on TikTok stay in hotel in the UK and didn’t like the English breakfast which lot British people pissed off and one was suggesting eating a Indian place. The irony of it… 🙃
