I’ve been a Linux user for nearly 20 years and my main gaming rig is Mint because it’s convenient and gets out of my way when it’s time to game.

360 is something like 5-10 years behind PS3 in terms of emulator development. RPCS3 is quite good with very high game compatibility and it natively supports mods and such.

Ironically an open source project with under 100 stars now seems more trustworthy by default because you can be sure they aren’t lying

I used the package manager package and then switched to the Flatpak. It’s basically the same. Either is fine. The Flatpak feels a bit more plug and play to me, but the regular package was fine too.

Lol, totally fair

But they could keep those limits in place and crowdsource bandwidth capacity now using torrents of rompacks

Their initial point was that the name “The Great War” aged like milk because WWII was bigger, not that any people thought it was good

Those micro stutters and lower performance for the non-steam games are due to shaders needing to compile as you play. If you play for a while and keep the same Proton version, they’ll eventually go away and performance will improve.

Not sure this qualifies as insane. Seems more like a self-defense maneuver to me. People have harassed and stalked this man to an absurd degree over features they wanted and bugs that bothered them that in some cases only existed in forks like Swanstation.

This is on top of this guy working a full time job. He can do what he wants and give away free code to the world on whatever terms he sees fit.

Basically, he got too famous and entitled assholes started treating him like a public slave.

It sucks and I’m sad to see him turn the project away from a true FOSS license, but I’d rather he contribute public code than not.

Happy to help! I love uncommon words and love to see them used correctly

Vis a vis is used in an uncommon way here. It typically means “in relation to”, “compared with” or “regarding”

“The poodle needs more grooming vis a vis most other breeds of dog”

“The poodle needs more grooming compared to most other breeds of dog”

The use of erudite is slightly wrong. It’s an adjective meaning knowledgeable, but you used it like a noun.

“Steve is really erudite”

“Steve is really well-read”

WoW has been running well on Linux since before Proton existed. Here’s the WineHQ application page for it: https://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=1922

Try using Protonup-QT to install the latest GE-Proton version on your machine, restart Steam and then set the game to run with GE-Proton.

Personally it usually works for me with Experimental, but GE is generally the best.

You need to put games into specific folders, but that’s the whole setup. Everything else is automated.

For PC games you can put the .desktop shortcut files for the games into the steam folder

ES-DE is probably the fastest to setup

If your top priority is connection stability (and latency is right behind that), consider going wired with a USB extender and a big USB splitter at the couch-end. You’ll save a bundle and the connections won’t ever drop

I have the 8bitdo pro 2 and I love it. Feels great wired or wireless

Jellyfin doesn’t fetch data from the web outside of its scans, generally speaking. Probably this is a case of your cache being slow or your video needing to be transcoded. I’ve used my server when my internet was out several times and never had an issue.

It’s probably from the jellyfin server itself. How recently did you set it up? Do you have a large library? Could be still scanning your media.

Is this happening when you try to play the file, or when you go to look at the details?

Which client are you using? I don’t ever see this message. Is your cache folder for the Jellyfin server on a spinning disk drive, perhaps?
