Every time you play with your friends and you have to spend 40 minutes to make your game "work" makes everyone else REALLY happy to play with you bro everyone LOVES waiting on you to because you decided to use this shit for a minor placebo effect of freedom we love WAITING for you to "be ready" man oh no it's fine go ahead and process your vulkan shader we've already waited half an hour what's another 15 minutes

>>730714278Idk I play lots of friendslop on linux and the only time I had a problem I just had to turn console crossplay off (around 10 seconds of work)
>implying I have any friends to play friendslop withBig mistake, buddy.
Works on my machine. I spend 40 minutes testing all the settings, reading pcgw, and installing mods instead.

>>730717773>git gudworks on my machine
>>730714278>Every time you play with your friends>friendscool story bro
>>730717773Nice argument, but alas, I already depicted you in a semblance of a dead sodomized goycattle inside my GNU + Linux terminal.
>>730718552>ASCII women
>>730717773Rejection of the terminal is an irrational phobia and people who claim not to like it do not use it.It is the simplest, fastest and easiest way to do basically any non-graphical task while opening up a lot of ways to save you time and effort.The tasks that distros mainly perform through the terminal are usually so trivial and well-documented that using them is as simple as copying and pasting.>>730718552Works for a lot of graphical tasks as well.
>>730718668Normal people have better things to do than memorize commands to use software. I know you can't relate though.
>>730717773What is this extremely normal thing that requres a terminal?
>>730718996>muh normalfagsgo back retard
>>730718996Just read the 6-gorillion-word manual bro
>>730719206he's not trying to steal and debloat windows thoughbeit
>>730718996>MemorizeJust look it up and substitute where needed.If a normal person has enough time to waste on dragondropping, then they have more than enough time to learn some basic commands and probably simple aliasing and scripting as well if it's something they do often.Just because normalfags have normalized wasting their time in countless tiny increments, does not mean that they are using that time for better things.
>>730719152We both know you're the one using the OS that attracts autists like a moth to a flame
>>730719406Spoken like a true /g/eet.
>>730719493>jeets are the ones who enjoy learning the new thingsis this what brown "people" actually believe?
>>730714278I played peak with my friends today and it just worked.also based captcha.
>>730719493filtered
>>730718996I once fixed a broken Windows ME install by manually copying system files off a Windows 98 disc in DOS mode using commands I learned playing Enter the Matrix on the Gamecube.I don't care what normalfags do.
>>730719573Nobody enjoys learning new things, it is pure cope.
>>730719773
>>730719773your life must be a real struggle
>>730714278The only thing that I've been missing out when it comes to friendslop are lethal company mods, mods in general, like, I don't want to learn how to install them on linux lmao, I'm actually doing my niggas a favor because otherwise they'd want to try every mod listed in thunderstore
>>730719107Fixing broken thumbnails requires the terminal, oh wait no that was Windows 10 that I had to fix with the terminal every day, Linux Mint Cinnamon Edition has a button you can click to reload thumbnails if they break.
>>730718668I don't get where this "muh terminal" sentiment comes in the first place. I will admit that I use terminal more on Linux because some terminal applications are just infinitely better than the GUI trash, but I had to use powershell and cmd extensively on Windows too. So it's not like I can use Windows and not use the terminal.
>>730719573You will not further your understanding of the universe by committing brain cells to cmds to launch and use a program instead of using contextual menus. You are not learning new thing, you're just wasting brain space. Only autistic retards think this is cool.
>>730720367>learn terminal commands once>learn contextual menus that change every goddamn versioni choose the former, thanks.
>>730720367>he doesn't write shell scripts and bind them to custom context menu entriesoh wait, you can't do that on winslop lmao
>>730720508On normal software for normal people the devs do that for the users., you don't have to make basic features yourself.But I do understand that making scripts to launching programs and making them do a basic thing make you feel special. I was 13 too once.
>>730714278>turn off vulkan preshaders in steam's optionswow that sure was hard.
>>730720646>he need devs to do the trivial tasksdo you also call devs to fuck your wife?
>>730720768I think you would have been better off not replying at all.
>>730714278yet another linux seeth thread from the 65th braindead brownie
>>730720646you can do plenty of things with the terminal that you just can't do with regular windows. want to open 4 programs in 1 click? bash will do that for you. want to launch a program every day at a specific time? systemd has got you covered. i could go on, but the point is the terminal is thousands of small programs that you can chain and manipulate however you want. most linux users use the terminal from time to time, and that's because it's much more convenient than opening a GUI application and pressing a button - which moves around all the time btw.
i just add the game to lutris, crack it and press play. with steam it's just as simple as playing on windows.
>>730720936>want to open 4 programs in 1 click?no?>want to launch a program every day at a specific time?why the fuck would i?
>>730720812why, I want to see you embarrass yourself further, it's entertaining
>>730720936>looking up the doc and typing every parameter in the terminal is more convenient then using picrel on windowsYou're deluded anon.
>>730721108now show me the UI from windows 10.and windows 8and windows 7point being is that GUI are always changing. cron jobs have been exactly the same for 50 years.
>>730721221Task scheduler's UI has not been updated since Windows XP
>>730721108>have to painstakingly click every little GUI element hoping you don't miss anything>instead of double-clicking a scriptYou're deluded anon.
>>730714278>Install Linux hoping it'll make me more productive>I continue to refresh the same web pages, same as before on WindowsShit lads, I'm fucked, I don't know how to defuckify myself.
>>730721268that's actually worse because it means your task scheduler looks like shit in windows 11 compared to every other program because the UI was designed 15 years ago.
ive had no major issues using linux for years and the few times ive had issues launching games with friends i just make jokes about it because everybody loves me. i am a free spirit
>>730721221it's the same ui since at least windows xp anonit's hilarious that you don't even know thatmicrosoft just change the front ui to fuck with the basic users funnily enough, the disk manager window for example hasn't changed since win 95
>>730721316why do you identify as an anime girl though?
>>730721316stop using your phone for anything but calls and texts. stop browsing websites you waste time on. after awhile of being bored and suffering you will adapt.
>>730721310That's the ui to set up the task, not launch it. Using this window is equal to you search for the doc, reading it and writing the script.You must be really low IQ that you need me to spell this out for you.
>>730721403>completely missing the pointArguing with wintard is like playing chess with a pigeon. He will shit on the board and fly away to tell his buddies he won.
>>730721468I don't think anybody needs to tell you anything anon, you're literally alone playing with your own shit and yelling at clouds while the rest of productive adult world just moved on 35 years ago.
>>730721346cause i'm a fat fucking chud>>730721387I actually don't use my phone for anything other than the rare phonecall or online banking. To clarify: my issue is purely desktop related addiction to internet negativity and doomerism (e.g nothing good ever happens why bother?), with a strong psychological aversion towards actually taking action to fix my bad habits and create new healthy habits, and if I did begin I cannot continue to do it as the familiarity of how i've been living overwhelms my desire for change.
>>730714278Thats just the pc gaming experience, on windows too
>>730721546Is that so?
>>730721403>Using this window is equal to you search for the doc, reading it and writing the script.No it isn't. One is having a nice tactile menu that is fun to navigate and click around, the other is what amounts to work you aren't paid for.
>>730719728Real hacker shit
>>730714278But my games load faster than for my Win frends. Also one of them couldn't even start Castle Crashers after first launch. Also you can turn off shader caching and use GE like most people.
linux is the dream that never becomes a reality because nobody, i repeat, NOBODY wants to be the guy who is tech illiterate but also too prideful to just go back to windows, so they end up using linux wrong while whining and bitching, giving it a bad rep as a result for others to try it out. in summary, if you hear someone go "i tried it and it was horrible" they were retards. but linux is also just not user friendly enough for it to be a direct alternative. it's a server admin tool and nothing more.
Every game I bought off of steam worked out of the box on linux.Every game I pirated as a GoG package worked out of the box on linux.The reason why games work isn't compatibility, it's because I have powerful codemonkey aura.The machine spirits respect me. If you tried to use linux it would crash repeatedly and cowsay "kill yourself normie".
>>730721660>One is having a nice tactile menu that is fun to navigate and click aroundi don't know in what world you live in where guis are fun to navigate and click around, everytime i use my android i thank the gods for the search functionality. in general when you're looking for something in a gui the most efficient is to use fucking google, which then walks you through the 3 submenus you have to open to find what you're looking for.
>>730721597if you want to do something you just do it. all this cope and nonsense is a spook you have invented for yourself.
>>730720984is lutris better than heroic launcher?
>>730721108Wow, just look at this broken fractional scale: bullets, checkboxes, window title text and window texts are all blurry and have different blurriness lol. Even Wine on Wayland does fractional scaling better!
>>730716325Open task manager saar
laptop with fedora for adult stuff, pc for kernel level anticheat gaming, console for AAA titlesits that simple.
>>730722085lutris is pretty involved, you need a decent grasp of how wine functions under the hood to use it.i prefer lutris, but that's mostly because i've been using it for so long.
Kernel level anticheat is only a problem if you are 13 years old and want to play fortnite or call of duty. There is no excuse to not he using Linux.
>>730721221>cron jobsObsoleted by systemd timer units
>>730722108I'd like you to pause a moment and reflect on that fact that you think a jpg on the web is blurry not because of compression but because the text of the program itself is blurry.
>>730721320No anon it's really not worse than having to search for and write each parameter manually. That's a retarded remark.
>>730722130DO NOT OPEN BLOODY
>>730722234This jpeg isn't blurry you fucking retard, it was saved in pretty decent quality, and it's obvious from window title. If blurriness was caused by jpeg compression it would be uniform across image, but you can clearly see that labels "New Trigger", "Begin the task" and "On a schedule" have different level of blurriness which isn't how jpeg compression would handle them. And bullets and checkboxes are especially blurry.The reason why this shit is looking blurry is that ancient winshit toolkits can't handle fractional scaling properly, not jpeg compression (306 kib for a 959x855 is pretty fucking lot for a heavy compressed jpeg).
>>730719773Low intelligence faggot detected.
>>730722563lmao shut the fuck retard
>>730722712>malding
>>730722712>lmao shut the fuck retard

>>730719152>Normal people aren't afraid to learn new things that are actually very simple I also use Linux happily, but let's not go overboard here.
>>730714278Cache the shaders, dumbass.
>>730722756There's no coming back from your blunder lolYou looked at a resized scaled down jpg of a window and went "hurr durr windows text is blurry".That's peak retardation.
>>730719152>Normal people aren't afraid to learn new thingsI'm a Linux user and would argue because “normal” people are retarded nigger cattle who afraid of anything new. Big corpos are abusing their inability to change for their own profit.
>>730722875>i-it's just a compressed j-jpeg! Winshit looking absolutely crisp at 125% scaling!
>>730722875Here's a png file for your dumb ass.
>>730722563Nigga you delusional, what the fuck is wrong with your computer? It's not even consistently blurry. I've saved a few shit quality JPEGs in my time and they are consistently shitty not only sometimes shitty.
i FUCKING hate windows but i will consneed that linux can have it’s own laundry list of eclectic bullshit glitches. i will still pick a steam deck over a gaming pc thoughbeit
>>730723339>i will still pick a steam deck over a gaming pc thoughbeitsteam deck is just KDE though? you can get pretty much the same experience right now on your GAMING PC by installing bazzite.
>>730723272>Nigga you delusional, what the fuck is wrong with your computer? It's not even consistently blurry.What the fuck with your reading comprehension? That's exactly what I was talking about. It's not consistently blurry because it (image) is not blurry. It's a Winshit UI that is blurry and this jpeg completely conveys it.
>>730723460I WILL, STOP SHILLING IT TO ME i’m just inbetween places at the moment and cant set up muh desk also the jews made me get a job
>wincuck so mad with his 17 different ui styles overlapping he can't help but seethe over linux
>>730717773I have been using mint since July and I haven't used the terminal even once for any normal tasks.
What will the Wincuck cope be when we hit 10% on the Steam survey?
>>730717773You don't need the terminal if you're not doing anything advancedYou even get the experience of downloading random shit off bazaar to fix minor problems, just like windows
its funny because this is exactly what happens with my retard friend that refuses to get off windows, every time we play minecraft its at least 30 minutes of him fucking with modpacks and shaders needing some microshit framework updated
>/v/ is so retarded and tech-illiterate they think using command line is a difficult and significant endevour
only reason I want linux to become popular is so anti-cheat developers will get their heads out of their own asses and quit with the kernel level cop out and actually do their jobs
>Every time you play with your friends and you have to spend 40 minutes to make your game "work"sounds like an improvement over Windows 7 where we'd spend 2 hours getting everyone's systems compatible for a gaming night
>>730725235Bro, /v/ still has console tribalism. Don't be surprised when they think Linux is some sort of magic black box that you need to be a sorceror to operate.
>>730725683everyone here is already using linux, your cell phone, your modem, the websites you visit... linux is everywhere. >>730725087>You don't need the terminal if you're not doing anything advancedpasting random commands you find on the web to fix your issues is the linux way
>>730714278Is task manager fixed yet?
>>730725052Oh nice valve finally tard wrangled fosstards and made a usable distro.
>>730714278This is also a Windows, sorry, Copilot problem too.
>>730726108that's not what all the terminally retarded wincucks incapable of installing an iso will say
>>730719107At the risk of getting called a retard.My script was executable and worked correctly.The issue was that in Linux Mint XFCE, Thunar is configured to not execute shell scripts on double-click, and this behavior has no visible UI toggle.The solution was enabling a hidden Thunar setting that restores executable-on-click behavior, similar to MATE, which I was using previously.This setting has been documented in forum posts for many years but remains undiscoverable through the UI.>wut scriptKatawa Shoujo for Linux.
When I enable hardware decoding or GPU acceleration on steam, the client bugs out and everything is black. It's a common issue to this day that hasn't fully been fixed. Also how do I get recently played to show up on the task manager icon when I right click like it was on windows?
>>730716179Sorry linux cattle, but Windows 11 just works.™
>>730720984Why doesn't it auto add the boxart?
>>730714278I see pretty dumb that you bought a computer and half of your resources are wasted on a bloated OS insted of the things that you bought your computer for. If you like to waste money, is your choice.
>Friends want to play a shitty game like GTA:Online, or Arc Raiders or the newest hero shooter moba>Start making up excuses how they don't work on Linux so I don't have to play garbage and waste my time on dead by daylight or marevel rivals
>>730718996Normal people use Whatsapp, and its a shitty chat software.Normal people fall for "intelligent" hardware, when it does the same but spies you in top of it.Normal people buy streaming subscriptions when you can pirate sacrificing a few minutes of their time.When did normal people pick a good choice related to tech?
>boot linux>decide to update before joining gaming night>restart>resolution is now 1024 x 768 and cannot be changed>uh oh>cant change the drivers to older ones that worked>looks like its gonna take some time and its already late>fuck it>put game resolution 640 x 480>still manage to get 30-40 fps>goodenough.exewherever i go, the computer problems will find me
I mean, I get that all of you Windows users prefer to sacrifice every aspect of your PC just for comfort.
>>730727468>boot linux>update>restart????Anyways, what game?
>>730727468>cant change the drivers to older ones that workedjust setup btrfs with timeshift. pretty sure the newbie distros like bazzite and fedora do it for you by default.
>>730726839At the risk of sounding retarded.Why specifically through thunar when that's going to require shuffling through folders?Wouldn't it make more sense to just add it almost literally anywhere else?
>>730714278>press button>game just worksWoah. That sure was hard.
>>730717224Deep Rock Galactic. It would crash every few hours, and the in-game voice chat didn't work on Manjaro (this was a few years ago)
>>730727845Works for me, modded, one click.
cachyos with limine is genuinely the best you can doyou get to enjoy the newest shit first, you get the joy of seeing 200 package updates and if anything ever goes wrong you just reboot and restore one of your 99 snapshots
>>730714278Funny enough, my windows friends seem to have a harder time getting multiplayer working properly than I do
>>730726839>The issue was that in Linux Mint XFCE, Thunar is configured to not execute shell scripts on double-click, and this behavior has no visible UI toggle.It does, just go to properties and you can enable it per file.
>>730727732Because launching an executable from a file manager is normal desktop behavior and worked in MATE. XFCE just ignores it with no explanation unless you already know about a hidden setting, which is the frustrating part.
>>730728345Holy shit that are some qt4 vibes
>Requires Windows 11 + Nvidia GPULinux is obsolete
>>730728345Fairly sure that checkbox only controls the executable permission. I had already checked that, the script ran from the terminal.But Thunar still ignored double-clicks until the hidden setting was enabled.

>>730728657I don't remember enabling anything related to executing except this and it works for me.

>>730730121You've spent more time complaining about the issue than it took to resolve it.
>>730730121>most people won't XYZI don't give a SHIT about most people. If you are too much of a nigger to even actually look at the settings, you should not operate a computer.Most people should not have rights, and should most definitely not be catered to.
>>730729951Yeah, I just tested and you are right. You do need to enable that setting.(for shell scripts)Personally I run them from a terminal since they give more output.
I am going to be 100% honest and ask this question like a trog because the answer will be probably simple but I am a dumbass asking about it.How does piracy work for Linux? Could you just go and pirate from the same sources you would use when you do the deed on Windowns and just run it through wine then they just work? If not, how do you actually go around doing it? GoG releases are kind of cheating so I don't want to hear about them.
>>730730319i don't care about your thunar issue, i'm using nautilus, just making a point.not being able to execute files by default is a design failure. add a huge warning if you must or something, but these files are made to be executed.
>>730730468yes, you can just run fatgirl installers or whatever through wine
>>730730468>Could you just go and pirate from the same sourcesYes but sometimes the malware will detect proton and it won't run
>>730714278Works on my machine. Microslop panic thread kek
>>730730468Pretty much yes, the main difference between piracy and steam is that if the game requires some specific workarounds (like recent UE5 games requiring latest msvc runtime), the steam will install them automatically, and under wine you'd have to install them yourself.
>>730729950I did check that, still didn't work.
>>730730781It was actually the first thing I did IIRC.
>>730730781Not him, but could it be that the script is getting executed and the shell closes right away? Try to add $SHELL or "read" expression at the end of your script.
>>730714278I gotta install Linux when support for W10 ends completely. It just sucks that I have to wrangle a fuckton as I have NVIDIA card and intel processor. Reinstalling everything and trying to find Linux version of games and programs is gonna suck as well.
>>730730981>trying to find Linux version of gamesYou just use proton
