Yeah, nothing beats parsec tbh.

For how I use my pc, everything just works. To give you a counter argument. My logitech devices just work out of the box on windows. For Linux I had to get a little specific tool. Also try installing Japanese language input on Linux. Compare how much simpler it is on windows. Linux is NOT simpler than windows in all situations. Maybe your own research methods are flawed?

I game, manage my NAS (truenas running jellyfish for media etc) , sail the high seas, and browse on my pc. I also remote into a small spare mini pc running Ubuntu server with a minecraft server on it. (Could’ve ran the server on windows, but wanted to tinker with Linux to learn)

It all works flawless.

Also, give me a Linux alternative for parsec that just works as well for remote gaming, both from other desktop devices as from a mobile devices.

I use popOS. Windows is still simpler

I run Linux on a small mini pc for some casual browsing.

I run windows on my main pc.

As long as some kernel anticheat (fortnite, cod, etc…) doesn’t run on Linux, I won’t be swapping.

30+y of windows use also makes me infinitely more comfortable with windows. All the complaints I always read about are totally moot for me (I understand the issue of privacy in windows. It’s the price I pay to have an OS that “just works” for me) .

While I enjoy tinkering, Linux is a royal PITA to use if you’re not used to it. I spend hours trying to figure out how to fix something that takes me 5m max in windows. I understand it’s a more a me than a Linux problem. But I’m certain many people struggle with the same things.

Prayers and likes is assistance right?

A 10usd Chinese knockoff Bluetooth controller works well enough for multi-player. The true little brother experience is to play with the shitty controller.

For the steam deck, you’d have to buy 2 controllers (potentially both shitty), so the benefit for the switch is still there.

From my 12y old kids perspective:

The switch 2 plays fortnite and Mario kart. The steamdeck doesn’t.

There is no difficult choice for him.

He doesn’t give a fuck about anything else. Neither do his friends.

Dutch can do the same. You can just keep slapping words together. It never ends.

100% sure they do. It would be silly not to.

Not to argue about the privacy issue, but aren’t there better options than a towel? Get a phone without camera? Get one of those phones with physical switches for sensors? Get graphene OS and don’t install anything but signal? I feel the towel wrapping is not the best solution for your privacy issue.

Tesla has a ceo that is arguably evil, his companies flaunt labour laws and he is actively trying to make the world a worse place through multiple means.

The HP writer makes mean tweets and complains women use her bathroom.

Both are bad people, but not even remotely at the same level.

If it’s a one time payment and it works well enough, chances are big I’ll get it.

If it’s a subscription, I wish you the very best, but it won’t be for me.

Unfortunately the explanation seems to point towards the latter :(

Screenshots are so much faster than a link though on a phone. I do crop mine before sending, but I send a lot of Screenshots in my group chats.

Where I work, it’s a non issue. As long as it doesn’t impact your work and nobody notices it (foul odor or behaviour), nobody could care less.

Fair enough :)

I’ll give you the csgo gambling. That is fucked up.

But their refund policy is best in class. I don’t care how they got there, it’s better than shops give me for actual physical games…

I’d love to see what you consider an alternative better storefront.

Elaborate?

It’s easy to just spout generic steam hate, but I’d love to hear what steam does worse than other pc storefronts.

Scroll past them Ignore them

You don’t mind seeing naked titties if they’re from some random model stolen online? But lord, the horror if a girl a tries to make a living from selling pictures and a fantasy without getting ripped off by big companies.

The brainpower some lemmings expend on absolutely trivial things always keeps boggling my mind tbh.

While it was an interesting read, the article is quite outdated and the author is overly negative of literally everything, not just privacy. If a browser has a glowy button, it’s horrible because it’s too fancy… I feel for the guy…
