“No, Karen, I won’t hack your WiFi.”
Its cute that Linux users think the average Windows users is even aware of the existence of Linux
That Linux distribution? Albert Einstein. Everyone clapped.
what is the point of posts like the one in the image? it just reads like fishing for approval.
Tech posts and memes are this or rage bait and nothing in between.
“x is the way to do y” “x language sucks haha!” “x language is so good haha!” “x language has so many packages depreciating haha!” "don’t use x do (extremely archaic/impossible way) it’s the only way dude!!”
it’s even worse because tech YouTubers do the exact same thing with popular libraries and frameworks, it’s all ragebait (always has been outerspace meme)
I use Linux because the Windows normies recoil from my computer in fear whenever I open the terminal, like a school of fish around a shark. Sometimes I even open htop
if I want the office to myself.
sudo apt install hollywood
no seriously install hollywood and run it it’s hilarious
Is this the application that shows more and more code whenever you hit a key on the keyboard?
That’s https://hackertyper.com/ that I know of
not only can i install steam i can run almost any game marked windows only
I am looking at switching to Linux soon. I really want to be able to keep playing my old WH40k games and my City of heroes and my other MMOs. So you are telling me these will run fine on Linux? I am new at this Linux thing so forgive me.
In my experience, Linux has been superior for older games because proton (the compatibility layer that makes windows game work on Linux) has a ton of old windows components packed in that are broken on modern windows.
The main issue people have these days are with newer multiplayer games and anti-cheat not playing nice with proton.
Modding can also be a bit of a hurdle if you’re into that sort of thing, but with a bit of work it’s doable.
I have a lifetime STO account and I like to do a taskforce every now and then. Maybe I should just keep a machine that runs my MMOs and do everything else on the Linux machine. EDIT–I just looked this up and it will run through Steam
Compatibilty of Windows games in Linux have gone a long way, partly but also independently from Steam’s work on it.
In fact Linux nowadays supports more Windows games than Windows, as especially older games still work there but not on modern Windows anymore.
I will not pretend that there aren’t games with issues, but in the vast majority of cases that’s new games and for the simple reason that some publishers actively go out their way to prevent them from working on Linux (highlights being anti-cheat tech that Linux worked hard to make it compatible, yet with certain publishers intentionally not setting a simple flag needed to run, often with totally made-up “reasons” about Linux’ insecurity…).
not really an expert at warhammer but steam has done a lot of work in compatibility of games.

Dawn of war works great for me, ive also managed to play space marine one and two, (granted one is a bit of a pain in the ass to get working) ive also gotten Gothic armada 2 and gladius to run. As far as I remember the only one that didn’t work out of the box was space marine 1 and that’s because of some stupid DRM that’s been put on it. I’m on Pop!OS for reference.
