If you feel like you need/want software from AUR you should check out Distrobox. It can run any distro on top of your installation using Docker under the hood, but it tightly integrates into your system so with little effort you can run AUR programs from your launcher as if they were natively installed on your Mint.

Yes, but for how long?

Remember that prices in the US are before taxes (VAT) since they differ for each state and are calculated during checkout. I think I’d prefer to move -> buy than to buy -> move.

I thought they were introducing Easy Anti-Cheat to BFV and BF1 like they have used on BF 2042. EAC can run on Linux if setup properly but EA doesn’t care.

And so does EA who hasn’t done it either and keeps adding the anti cheat to older Battlefield titles. Fuck AAA publishers.

Didn’t we reach a point where EULAs are non-enforcable? Or is that just in the EU? But regardless, Valve can just ban you and good luck doing anything about it.

Agreed, this has been my experience as well. I tried switching to full time Linux multiple times. I had already used it on my laptop for years but on my desktop I kept going back to Windows because things on Windows just worked the way I wanted and thought that for some things there weren’t any Linux alternatives.

That was until two years ago I challenged myself to only use Linux for a month. I’ve been using Linux on my desktop ever since and only use Windows now and then to play a single game that doesn’t work on Linux due to anti cheat.

I was torrenting Flatout 2 shortly after its release and thought the download size was suspiciously small. It was the first time I played Fallout 2.

Luckfox Pico Mini might be you’re looking for. It’s a Linux SBC that costs around 10 USD, in a Teensy/Raspberry Pico or even smaller formfactor.

I suppose xrandr can help you here: See the Arch wiki about xrandr

Linux is usually lighter on hardware, so in theory you have more performance left for games. I doubt it’s noticeable though and I certainly didnt notice any difference except for some games like GTA 4 and Sims 3. They run a lot better on Linux than on Windows.

To add to this: A certain type of Soviet submarine used a lead-bismuth alloy as coolant for their reactor. The coolant solidifies at ambient temperature so it had to be heated indefinitely by some way or another or else it solidified and trashed the reactor. I don’t think any of them exist anymore since Russia wasn’t able to afford sustaining the giant navy after the Soviet collapse.

Just goes to show how insane nuclear submarine engineering is, or was at some point.

You sand your 3D prints?

I do

I’m guessing it’s the same common issue present on many Gigabyte AM4 boards. The IT8792E (and perhaps others) doesn’t work with the kernel driver. There are workarounds but they make it so that other ITxxxxE chips don’t work. I have a Gigabyte X570 Ultra and can only use ~half of the fan headers with lm_sensors. I haven’t been able to get them all working.

Edit: or section 6.6 of the Arch wiki link you shared.

Fair point. Can’t argue with that.

Ah I see, understandable. Still it’s presented like he’s the universal/everyone’s president.

I like how his name is “President Joe Biden” as if not to be confused with the other Joe Biden. Also this insinuates that he is the president of Threads, or the Fediverse, or even the world maybe?
