Cybernetic Vermin posted:it is honestly real weird that neither the android or chromeos userland infrastructure became the logical underpinning for linux on the desktop. honest question because i'm not familiar enough with it, but isn't samsung dex just an extrapolation of android into a "desktop interface?" when dex first came out i largely expected it to eventually make its way onto samsung laptops as an alternative to windows that could run galaxy store and play store apps

enabling a flag in chrome doesn't mean it will actually do anything and yes, even if it says "video acceleration: enabled" in chrome://gpu

Tankakern posted:you're talking about x11, not wayland chromeos doesn't include x11 at all. like, even xwayland poo poo doesn't work out of the box (without crew/chromebrew anyway, which afaik doesn't work at all since they disallow sudo now) i think if you install the stupid crostini linux vm subsystem it might, but that for sure uses wayland so it'd be xwayland anyway Beeftweeter fucked around with this message at 16:00 on Jan 7, 2024 |

like i don't understand why chromeos decided to go the vm route at all it's linux! just containerize everything, it works fine on android (using termux)! despite being barebones the vms are soooo slow on chromebook hw

Sapozhnik posted:containers are not a security boundary and that might cause Rights Holders to have the sads you can screen/audio record drm'd content from the vms. i think that's worse there's even native chromeos audio/video subsystem debug tools to do this that get installed with a default installation, i don't think you even need to enable developer mode to get them

Branch Nvidian posted:the biggest problem with linux is how impenetrable it seems to people not already versed in it. someone might be fed up with windows or macos, but they can’t just move to linux, there’s picking debian or red hat or whatever and then picking what flavor of that distribution you want and then picking an operating environment People who just want to shitpost and watch YouTube don't need a general purpose computer or operating system and should get a chromebook In fact I think "the year of Linux on the desktop" or whatever is approaching as people realize this and PCs become more expensive specialty products used by people who actually need them, it's not that everyone will start using linux but that many people who use windows will just leave the PC market e: however this means PCs will also shoot up in price massively so  will become even more bourgeois than it already is and a lot of people will be priced out of modern AAA gaming on PC (including me  )

pretty much true really, most people hate computers and only use them because they have to Sapozhnik posted:wine works for precisely the bits of the win32 api that are necessary for video games (empty user32 window for dxvk to work with, input apis, sound apis, file io, network io, whatever hokey crap denuvo does under the hood). my 20 year old german image editor that I refuse to switch away from also works fine under wine, it's at this point probably much less powerful than Krita (much less photoshop  ) but it's what I'm used to and it works about as well as it works under windows

my gaming pc is 7 years old and could well be twice that when I finally build a new one, assuming the next economic calamity doesn't put me on the streets/in one of Emperor Trump's concentration camps that said, it plays games a drat sight better (even under linux  ) than a 7 year old pc from earlier times

Pinterest Mom posted:bad news, league is getting yanked off linux on the desktop lol vanguard is that flaming garbage that basically requires you to turn off all of an operating system's security features to run. even on windows it requires you to disable the shadow stack, and the troubleshooting guide basically reads "if it still doesn't work, turn off antivirus, defender, any anti-malware, and maybe run everything as administrator just to be safe". it's not even something that starts with the game, it runs at startup and is constantly in the background it sounds worse than that starforce garbage from the 00s

I tried dual booting ubuntu, and intaller I got had a known bug where telling it to install over a particular partition would instead reformat the whole drive, which they helpfully didn't mention on the download page. Which ended any interest i had in using linux because Bill never pulled that poo poo on me.

the saddest thing is that this implies that there are people who have so little going on in their lives, that they have nothing better to do than cheat in online bideo james i mean, i was 16 once too, but even as an immature, socially stunted, dateless weirdo, i still had better things to do with my time
