It depends entirely on the game and yes some games work with EAC on Steamdeck but not on Linux desktop…for some reason.

Ironsight on Steam (before it shut down) didn’t work on Linux for the longest time, The devs eventually enabled EAC through proton for about a year before making it Steamdeck only during the final months the servers were online.

And even using Steamdeck=1 in the launch commands didn’t fix that game for me. >.>

I do it the other way around, If you can install Linux yourself I can probably help you without ripping both our hair out.

The other side of that ignorance is if you can do simple tasks they also assume you have the skills to be the next big-tech genius.

The amount of times I’ve been asked to make someone a website or app…

Being “good with computers” is always relative, and to most people computers are basically black magic.

Here’s some stuff I’ve seen other people do.

Had a coworker buy a whole new laptop because their Google account had signed out and they couldn’t remember the password. (obviously buying a new laptop didn’t help)

My mother couldn’t figure out how to hang up a MS Teams call so she just closed the lid on her laptop, which she still assumes turns the whole PC off even after explaining to her multiple times it doesn’t…

My former boss call me into work on a day off to “recover” the main software we used since it had disappeared from the computer. It was still there, an update had just changed the desktop icon.

And most recently a buddy installed multiple viruses on their computer after I told them to ‘backup their files’ before doing a clean Windows install. I had forgot to mention that backing up their files just meant coping them to another drive…they immediately started searching up shady “file backup” programs from random sites on the internet.

I posted another update. while the previous fix kinda worked, It couldn’t run the game with mods. (which most PD2 players these days do) and I didn’t really test that before logging off for the night.

Ended up being more an issue on my systems end than the game itself. >.>

Just tried on the same Proton version both with and without the wsock command and still nothing…

If you’re willing to buy a stolen iD please just pay for a VPN.

You can pay for Mullvad by mailing them cash or buying a gift card off Amazon.

I’ll see your Bic and raise you Zippo!

Just got my first one a while back, I bought it 2nd hand and it’s 7 years older than me and works better than any lighters I’ve borrowed off people over the years.

Replacement parts and even completely new lighter inserts still fit the original cases from the 1940s until now. And if something does break beyond you ability to repair, They got a lifetime warranty with no proof of purchase needed!

Only just found out about Omarchy the other day and it’s just a Hyperland config with a bunch of Ai shit pre-installed…

Why are people even talking about it?

Thought it was more a prison thing.

I use a DS4 and used a DS3 for years before that.

Using none Xbox controllers on PC used to be a pain, I remember the hoops I had to jump through to get my DS3 pad working with Windows 7. Now it’s easier than ever.

I actually didn’t like the DS4 controller for the longest time because of the thumb-sticks but found some replacements a while back that has the more comfy (to me) domed design of the earlier PS controllers.

Amazon Link, couldn’t find them sold anywhere else in the UK sadly…

This might have been just a me issue.

But I used to be a long time Total/Double Commander user on Windows Vista & 7. But sometime after I switched to Windows 10 it stopped letting me change the default file manager to anything other than explorer…

I use the split panel feature in dolphin a lot. the shortcut is F3 if you didn’t know already.

It’s not that they’re enabled, it’s that they can re-enable themselves after updates even if the users disables Snaps and removes snapd.

Had this issue with Ubuntu on my Dads laptop before I switched it to Debian.

It’s definitely more a habit of people who’ve used a smartphone more than traditional PCs.

I’m older GenZ and my friend group is split pretty evenly between those of us who had laptops/desktops growing up and those who only semi-recently (like last 5 to 8 years) got their first actual PC for gaming.

And you’re right Firefox does handle memory usage better in general, which is why some of my more “hardcore tab-hoarder” friends use it. But Chromium, not so much Google Chrome but mainly OperaGX/Brave seem to be the choice of my generation…

Honestly some people I know I just want to break in to restart their PC that’s been running constantly for half a fucking year racking up chrome tabs, and yet they still bitch about it being slow…

Steam input only lets you rebind controllers, not mouse and keyboard.

Also the software on Windows I was mentioning doesn’t just emulate the right stick but actually hooks into the game directly to get as close to native mouse support as possible.

I’m actually talking about the opposite way around (Using the mouse to control the camera). I already mentioned in my post that I have tried binding my mouse to the right analog stick but I got mixed results at best.

They’re off the chart.

Damn I jumped right from Pop_OS to Endeavour, then plunged into Arch before running back crying to Endeavour…
