I used to think I was a 5/10, but then I tried to pirate a game on SteamDeck and I felt like I lost a lot of braincells. Spend like 6 hours trying to fix things and I accidentally bugged the internal speakers.

I think I’m at 3/10, linux (SteamOS) is so fucking hard to use.

I might be the most technologically illiterate Lemmy user ever.

    Linux piracy can honestly be a pain in the ass. I wouldn’t beat yourself up too much over it if it wasn’t working properly.

    There’s someone called “johncena” then some numbers who supposedly uploads some kind of Linux-ready release of games.

    I’m a Linux pirate so I’ve been going through the trials and tribulations to get games to work. For the best results, I typical need to install the game in a Windows VM then copy it over to my main OS. It’s a hassle and takes up a lot of storage in the process, but it’s nice when it works.

    It sucks when it doesn’t work and can feel like a waste of time. That’s something I’ve just gotten used to with computers.
