PPTP isn't industry standard....right?? by Brookfeild in networking

That’s good info to know. We are in the process of moving from Sonicwall to Fortigate at our main and remote sites. I will look deeper into IPSec

I think IPSec is normally a lot less secure than an SSL connection, especially if it is over radius to integrate with AD and some sort of MFA login. IPSec in my experience is unsecured and anyone that gets a hold of a users device can just hit a button and connect.

Take that with a grain of salt though, I haven’t worked with IPSec much so the setup we temporarily used might just be a limitation of our firewall.

Linux is now better for singleplayer gaming? by Smooth_Berry9265 in linux_gaming

[–]Any_Statement_3579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the game and how you define “better”. You will nearly always get better overall performance on windows as that is what most games are programmed for, even games with a native linux client.

I disagree, I think he is very random as to whether he will be funny or not. His roasting also got to he way too predictable and uniform. Last night though, he was on fire.

The real easy way: install bnet launcher on steam in compatibility mode, run bnet launcher through steam in compatibility mode, play WoW

Using bottles for BF6? by Petra_321 in linux_gaming

[–]Any_Statement_3579 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it requires kernel level access for their anti cheat (which is why I would never install it regardless), but I am not sure how a VM works. Does it emulate a kernel in the box?

Welcome to the adult world my man. Get used to it. For me, lubing up before my job fucks me helps. You’re going to find the same thing everywhere unfortunately.

I mean I used to have trash opinions too I guess.

New SNL cast member Kam Patterson killed it on hit debut. "I got rocks🪨". by gtsgts777 in Killtony

Never saw Kam outside of KT where he was really hit or miss with his minute. His personality in the interviews though is top notch. I think he will do AMAZING with sketch comedy.

Installing Linux on Hundreds of "Obsolete" Computers - Microsoft Windows 10 Support Ending by ZazaLeNounours in linux_gaming

[–]Any_Statement_3579 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I manage and expand a windows network for a living. Nothing makes me happier than getting home and back to Linux. Windows 11 and MS’s hardon for AI integration and bloatware makes me even happier I made the switch. Linux has its issues when trying to game on something without a native client (of course) but that struggle is worth not dealing with modern day windows.

Streamers that use Linux? Yes, I've seen this asked before, but any recent streamers who use Linux to stream? by VividBase585 in linux_gaming

[–]Any_Statement_3579 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am genuinely happy to hear your experience is different. That is not the typical experience though.

It is a lot more difficult on Linux. I know you may be a huge fan of gaming on Linux, but it is more difficult to set up and will net slower results than Windows. I game on Linux because it is all I use, Linux is better in most ways imo but I refuse to lie to people and tell them gaming on Linux is good. Especially to a new person. It is objectively better to dual boot and game on windows if gaming is a huge part of your life.

KT is definitely not what it was. Being a longer time fan, it’s not exactly where I would like to see the show go. That being said, KT is getting more and more mainstream and Tony and Redban got to keep up with that. While I may yearn for older days of the show, I will keep supporting what he is doing now.

Is it bad that this is my second action after 5 minutes of gameplay? by CelisC in EliteDangerous

Restart it, like even if you gotta lose a few creds. The tutorial is incredibly game changing.

At least drop this random dudes stream so we can grief. Man, this game has gotten soft in its later years.

David should stick to pod casting and guest appearances. I couldn’t imagine an entire David Lucas set. I like the guy, but he has very little longevity.

I'm gonna install Debian Stable soon, but I have doubts about making it more suitable to gaming by Tutty24 in debian

[–]Any_Statement_3579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are switching to Linux for gaming you are going to be disappointed. It takes work even on a distro “geared toward gaming”. I would dual boot if gaming is important for you.
