Ahh 80s shorts, where ALL your assets are on display

I’ve never gotten a Linux system running with the expectation that it will work 100%.

I only expect an OS to do what it was designed to do. I was so happy when steam went full crazy on proton, all of my flat library works like a dream, only 30 or so games, my VR library is over 100.

100% I do know of (and was well aware before my move) the limitations, I used linux in early 00. The way flat games are today I see VR being similar in 5 - 10 yrs (we are a small community overall and even smaller on linux). We WILL get there because the “real gurus” will take us there, I has faith and patience. Until then, M$ can harvest my streams and VR gameplay (I have stripped all apps, files, and flat games from my windows install and I only play for 2hrs at a time 5-7 times a week)

Yes, we can play “some” VR games on linux (vive(my headset), index, quest, and pico all have compatibility) but it is not yet at the point flat games are. I’m still trying to get more than the meta ported games to play with proper feeling(even they are a little lacking), the other games almost all have issues with frame rate, making it extremely tiring and headache inducing, then there are the mods that do not have linux native mod installers/launchers (satisfactory modders made theirs work well, install game through steam, run smm, install mods, boom done) where you need to install steam a second time with the game inside it as well. It is coming along and I am here for it, but until VR is up to speed I cannot let go of that crap os, all I can do is play all the games that work well in linux and the rest on a content stripped windows (I’ve removed all apps and files not required for VR/streaming)

STRONG SUGGESTION FOR VR USERS ON STEAM: Get WLX overlay to be able to interact with your desktop since steam likes to close the desktop overlay when the desktop is interacted with

Haven’t set up my kde desktop yet, so default from install for now. My “other” os uses a totally black background (how often do I see any part of my de? only for a few seconds, before that the os had a folder of images downloaded from nasa of stars and other galactic images

This is welcome news. Most of my library is VR and I keep getting “similar” flat games recommended all the time. I need to actively hunt for what I really want to play and then I am presented a list, a long list, a long long list, that I get tired trying to read through.

I’d rather watch the crap I already know I like

Same, tho I do catch a bit of shit from the gf “sigh This again?”

Meanwhile, I’ll hear her listen to the same song 5x from down the hall

Been folding double and queen fitted sheets for a few decades, it is not really that hard.

• Pick a side (long or short)
• put the corners into each other, by folding in half (I like to put the “body” side of the sheets inside)
• put the 2 corners together (here you can put the sheet down to make the sides “nice” so they are square)
• fold in half until you can’t I usually get 3 folds (should be about as big as a towel folded in half 3 times on the shelf but taller)

Takes a few moments once you are proficient. All my sheets have had elastic on all sides

I watch people STEP OVER a sign that states “Elevator is in service” at least 3 every time. I watch people throw GARBAGE in a battery recycling bin, every day. When I ask if it was a battery they threw in there they say no, I just saw recycling on the bin. There is a picture, 50cmx50cm, with 8 different batteries on it. Either that or literacy has dropped to near 0

I’ll see 3-5 digital ads, on my phone at lunch in 20 mins, everything else is 100% ad free. I grew up with 80s tv commercials, nothing affects me now, lol, I also haven’t had cable in, woah, 25 years Also not from the states

I have cds that would fit in that small a space, they were a thing to give out like business cards and were the same foot print, just cd thick

I have wonderful tunnel vision. I opened a new tab and actually looked at the page and they do in fact exist, I have 3 sponsored links, I just never actually look at the page until i hit enter cause there is nothing of interest til then hehe

how many people see that page tho? when i open a new tab i don’t even see the page, I open new pages quite often, all i see is the address bar until i type and hit enter. never even saw the “sponsored content”

Oh, this is a cute game, played the demo. may actually get it

incog is ONLY useful to keep your browsing “safe” on your machine from someone looking at your history. Your ISP still knows where you went and logged it, you need a VPN to potentially hide from your ISP. Or, live in a place that won’t cough up your info. Historically in Canada, if we get “caught” pirating our ISP sends us the letter they received, wag their finger at us and move on, I’ve caught a few letters due to the kid

That reminds me, do NOT look it up if you value your eyes, “Blue Waffle”

There are vestiges of it, I still play sims 3 (on linux) and every so often the Origin login pops up

May go sailing for it after this tho

Another, “listen to the world” person. Nice

Worse, the slow walker that takes up the whole sidewalk (weaving back and forth) while wearing earbuds and then act upset they didn’t hear “Excuse me” 3x when you push past them

Hi!
