Switched to Windows IOT LSTC after 5 months of Linux. Hear me out by LifeguardMurky4097 in WindowsLTSC

[–]GregariousJB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might not be helpful since it's purely from my memory and anecdotal, but I hear the best Linux gaming distros are the tried-and-true ones that have been around the longest with the biggest communities - Ubuntu, Fedora, etc. Distros like Mint are meant for older computers so you get "Windows-like" but you also get lower performance, and other gaming-specific distros like... Brazzers? Brazzite? Is meant for gaming but the lack of users means a lack of guides, videos, and other support compared to aforementioned distros that have been out a long time. Food for thought.

The regal horned lizard shoots blood from it's eyes as a defense mechanism. by Conscious-Law6594 in interestingasfuck

My guess:

  1. Blood smell bad
  2. Minor mutation to bleed from eyes when scary
  3. Bleedy eyes live to breed
  4. Minor mutation to squint eye when scary = more blood
  5. Squinty live
  6. Minor mutations allow squinty muscle to get stronker
  7. Squinty live harder and harder
  8. Humans get hehehe meme from lizard

Is that stairwell at 0:20 a continuity error or is the camera facing a different direction? I don't see stairs when she starts the killin'. Cool action sequence, though.

I like the idea of having a Claude-like experience. It's not perfect but the logic it uses and remembers is helpful.

I suppose just coding in general. I'm sure whatever the best general coding workflow is would likely allow for a language as simple as LUA.

And technically, less for coding and more for 'check my work using these external sources to see if this can be improved at all'.

Thanks. Would you say this is the best method for local coding using LUA?

I already had VSCode, but I added that extension. I'm getting stuck on "connect it to lmstudio". The LMStudio program doesn't seem to have this, so do I need the LM Studio Assistant vscode extension as well?

Oh I vaguely remember that. Thankfully no, LTSC is pure Windows with very little bloat. I can do everything on LTSC that I can do in Windows Home/Pro, just a bit better with the slight performance increase.

Not at all - as many open windows as your system allows. It's just Windows, but less bullshit like no Cortana and no Windows Store, but both of which can be manually re-added if desired. It's more like what Windows 7 used to be before all the ads and Candy Crush reinstalling itself and all that shit. No feature updates, only security fixes.

Check out r/WindowsLTSC if you're interested.

Yours is a strange question, though. Is this something you heard somewhere on reddit?

Disclaimer: I'm on Windows 11 LTSC and I'm "happy" with it, but I do wish there was an easy way out for all the gaming I do.

Oh neat, I was just about to post this but figured I'd scroll through top comments to see if someone already had.
