TheFinn , in How much success have you had with modded Skyrim specifically?

Thinking of replaying. I hope you get some good tips.

Are you on Nvidia, Intel, or AMD?

drislands OP ,

AMD.

Dwarf Fortress

Original ascii game here: www.bay12games.com/dwarves/

Steam game with graphics here: store.steampowered.com/app/…/Dwarf_Fortress/

They are virtually identical, except that the steam version has pretty pixel art and sound.

Perfect game for double O spies like you x)

drwankingstein , in Infected games under Proton.

I believe steam uses bubblewrap to isolate steam games so you should be relatively safe

PrettyLights , in What proton games are: completely ownable with no nonsense and a solid community?

If you want to play modern or even recent games and indulge your locked down metwork desires I recommend getting a secondary PC just for gaming and run a separate vlan to fully separate traffic from your existing setup. There’s really no realistic threat vector there barring a state level actor or something equally serious but I’m happy to be corrected.

TheKMAP , in Sorry I can't do it.

Do people not use Manjaro for this?

WeLoveCastingSpellz , in What proton games are: completely ownable with no nonsense and a solid community?

any pc game?

MrSoup , in Goverlay/Mangohud issues

If you are trying to config Mangohud, just edit his config file.

Readme

Archwiki

Hellmo_Luciferrari OP ,

even after renaming MangoHud.conf to MangoHud.conf.old in ~/.config/MangoHud/ And launch a game with MangoHud, it does work. However, where would the config be if it doesn’t show up in ~/.config/MangoHud/

That’s what I am trying to figure out, the Readme and Archwiki don’t have the paths I am looking for.

veng , in I have an ancient laptop, need recommendations on which distro to install

I had a net top thing from asus that had worse specs than that running fine a few years ago on AntiX. It was just used as a thin client mostly but did the job.

thezeesystem , in Is there a way to disable the rumble feature on the Xbox controller?

My partner hates them so she straight up removed them. Lot lighter controller is Nice too

Baggie , in Vulkan or DirectX on Linux?

I’m still running windows for now, but even then Vulkan has de-fucked a few games for me. Given the option, always Vulkan.

dodos , in Vulkan or DirectX on Linux?

Vulkan in proton was busted at launch (couldn’t start the game), but I’ve heard it’s better now. If you have issues then you can always switch.

JustEnoughDucks , in Headset recommendation
@JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl avatar

Why not get a separate standing microphone like a Blue Yeti or snowball and have much better audio quality with no wires on your headphones and you are free to choose whatever headphone that you like?

Standing mic plus a Bose quiet comfort is top tier wireless setup. Or you can even use earbuds at that point.

sugar_in_your_tea ,

That’s what I did for my wife and no complaints yet.

A good mic is essentially “buy it for life,” whereas wireless headphones are “consumable.” It’s much better to not have to find a good mic and good audio at the same time, just get a good mic and then feel free to experiment with headphones.

Surprisingly the Sony PS5 pulse headset works great in Linux. It’s dongle based and has really good quality.

If you look into PlayStation from a software angle, it makes perfect sense. Sony has always been pretty pro-unix.

They had an official Linux kit for the PS2 (came with a custom Linux distro on a CD, a HDD, and a KB+M).

OtherOS was also a selling point on the PS3, and was only ditched when they realized it opened the door to major security risks.

Further, CellOS, the operating system for the PS3, and OrbisOS, which is the base operating system for the PS4 and PS5, are all based on FreeBSD.

So, a lot of their hardware is designed around Unix systems already. I know all their controllers since the Dualshock 3 are natively supported by the Linux kernel (no dongles or drivers needed in theory).

Ashiette , in I want to switch to Linux for gaming, but I need an accessible desktop environment

A distribution revolving around KDE might have what you are looking for.

Yet, in this particular situation, you might be better off using Windows if it only revolves around gaming.

Sometimes, it is better to take the path of least resistance.

ArtikBanana , in Motherboard upgrade

Are you aware AMD just announced the release of new cpus?
Just making sure, since some people will prefer to wait.
