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

yeah but now people play for (a lot of) money. i can see that being a good motivator to cheat

anyway all this means is that wine will get vanguard support, or at least a bare-minimum implementation to fool it into working

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.

lol, yeah, what kind of utter rube would use the, arguably, most well known version of Linux, one often touted as being fairly approachable to a new user, and expect it to not have a critical bug in the installer?

The installer saw that LOL was installed and removed the malware for them.

fr tho, i use ubuntu on my server and its fine. tbh i have a harder time understanding why someone would prefer debian? I guess just because its EVEN MORE STABLE?

debian is for servers or work stations that dont do anything modern, ubuntu is for introducing you to other, better distros

(Update: Gaming on Linux reports that Ayaneo will be using an adapted version of Holo ISO, an Arch Linux configuration that describes itself as a "may as well be 99% of the way there" version of Steam Deck's SteamOS that "provide a close-to-official SteamOS experience." Thus it seems that official Valve support for non-Steam-Deck SteamOS distribution may still be a while off.)

so in other words what this means is that ayaneo has partnered with a bunch of crapware groups to bring their particular Value Added nuggets to their product, since there is no official licensing agreement with Valve.

i've pointed out before that every single third party android and windows machine has crapware. not some or most, every single goddamn one. because in a commodity hardware market your margins are razor thin and the crapware is where you make money.
