Checks ProtonDB

So I’m missing out on Destiny, PUBG, CoD, Siege, Battlefield, and Lost Ark… Yeah I’m totally okay with that personally. There are thousands of other games I’d rather be playing and they all work great.

Same most of the games that dont work on linux/proton are pretty bad and boring anyways

HelixDab2 , to youshouldknow in YSK how to eBay - in depth

First, this is fantastic information, and I’m going to save a copy of it.

How would you feel that eBay compares to something like Facebook Marketplace? I’m aware that this is a very open-ended question.

I don’t think anybody ever told someone else not to use Linux when they are already using and enjoying it. This argument is often used as a defense against switching to Linux. And of course, if you just want to play your games without messing with all the bottles and Proton versions, Windows is still the way to go, especially for older games.
As a challenge I tried getting several older games to work on Steam Deck, and while it was fun for me, I like tinkering, I can totally see how it can be a huge hassle for others.

I know this won’t work for everyone, but I just quit playing games that don’t work or even from publishers that do shitty things and there’s still plenty of games out there. There’s a lot of shovelware out there, but there’s also a lot of good stuff out there.

I think it’s worth advocating for quitting shitty games, though.

Out of many friends I’ve had who (used to) frequent games like PUBG, Dota 2, League of Legends, Valorant, Overwatch, etc., most were just having a bad time, all the time. Granted, some of these work on Linux, but the point is, those of my friends that still play Overwatch (“2”, lol) just seem to be happier and more functional when they have to quit for some period of time.

I’ve been having a much better time with my life once I went for the good old enjoyment rather than chasing rank or wins or skill, finally making time to play amazing single-player titles again or just screwing around in online games.

And curiously enough, the online games I actually want to play and have fun doing so are the ones that work on Linux, while the rest thankfully refuses!

bitwolf ,

This is the way. If we don’t stop buying those games the publishers will never recognize how shittu they are.

Acidbath , to linux_gaming in Just Switch Over

I used to kinda complain about this but being unable to play lol or lostark has greatly improved my life. I don’t mind being unable to play these games.

I am very grateful for proton and all of the technologies that allow me to play majority of my games. linux gaming in 2015 was painful.

Jesus_666 , to linux_gaming in Hardware for Linux gaming PC

I’m not sure about the SSD. Has QLC substantially improved since hitting the market? If not I’d recommend going with something TLC-based.

jinwk00 ,

You do have a point, the SSD is known to have very slow cache that Toms and others have reported dipping the sequential to 0MB/s

One could possibly get something like TeamGroup MP44L or SN580

justme OP ,

I heard that concern already, but had troubles finding something decent without blowing my wallet… the problem was obviously the search filters on the website, which I used… looking for the name, you provided I instantly found something really decent, which actually turned out cheaper Oo

jinwk00 ,

Should also be more reliable in long run too since both are TLC

Years ago I bought a ps4 controller to play in my Linux pc, but the games didn’t recognize the controller input, I had to use some program to map the keyboard to the controllers but it didn’t work well, so I installed steam and with it ir worked perfectly. Because work and college I had to stop gaming for a couple of years, and I tried again some weeks ago with Lutris, to my surprise that the controller got recognized and worked perfectly without the need for steam.

I’m something of a “not a scientist” myself

LordTrychon ,

Same. Would like answers.

LordTrychon ,

Did some searching. The paper from 2019 that discussed this -

We recorded 65 dBSPL (dB of sound pressure level) ultrasonic sounds 4 inches (10 cm) from tomato and tobacco plants, implying that these sounds could be detected by some organisms from up to several feet (meters) away.

Darkassassin07 , to piracy in Is it possible to rip movie straight from cinema?
@Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca avatar

Last time I looked at the topic (several years ago in a now deleted reddit post); someone had posted info on the projector system.

The media is delivered on a battery backed up rack-mount pc with proprietary connectors and a dozen anti-tamper switches in the case. If it detects meddling; it wipes itself. You’re not likely to grab a copy from there.

As the other commenter mentioned; the projector and media are heavily protected with DRM, encrypting the stream all the way up to the projector itself. You can pull an audio feed off the sound board; but you’re stuck with a camera for video.

montar OP ,

Now i wonder what it does when battery dies, whether it wipes itself or not. And where it stores it’s keys, in TPM or in RAM or where.

Darkassassin07 ,
@Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca avatar

Pretty sure the media itself is stored in ram, or similar volatile memory; so it wipes automatically on powerloss.

montar OP ,

Friends in other comments suggested that the file is 100-300gb size, it’s quite a lot of RAM if you asked me, but not much for a harddrive. If i were to design this machnie would store the movie heavily encrypted on a harddisk and store keys in RAM. Sb ealier mentioned you need special keys from special compamy to decrypt it so it would be doubly encrypted, one key stored in RAM and another inputed by technican. Ofc if i were to design this i would try to make it piratable by introducing some “accidential” vuln.

Anyway I’ve scene Linux boxes run for literal years because people forgot about them. For context that happens in a virtual environment
