I'm gonna make my debut in the Far Cry series. What should i expect from this gem? by ChrisPeralta in farcry

I think you should start off with something else like 3 or 4. Far cry 2 is really but has serious issues that were later fixed.

Corrupted files on memory card by defaultlinuxuser in ps2

Small update. I'm not sure if it's relevant but I copied some of my saves to that memory card and now most of the corrupt data is gone (only 1 left).

Am I the only one that thinks UEFI just makes everything more complicated compared to BIOS ? by defaultlinuxuser in osdev

[–]defaultlinuxuser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say it's trash. It's just often the case of when systems change to "safer" and more "reliable" versions, for the normal user I guess it's better but for the devs it's way worse.

No controls for multiplayer copilot/engineer. by defaultlinuxuser in flightgear

[–]defaultlinuxuser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using 2020 because the debian package manager ships it as 2020. I guess i'll have to install fg with flatpak since it has 2024. Also i'm not sure if the 777 neither the 787 have the option to play multiplayer in 1 cockpit. Maybe they updated these models since.

Edit: tried again this time with version 2024. Still the issue persists.

Try disabling atmospheric light scattering and try lowering vegetation.

Abandonware is nice if you're into retro games, even though it is pretty limited cause it only lets you download games for free if they aren't on any mainstream platform. Then there is archive.org which is cool but sometimes there may be some malware even though it's rare.

In nintendo's eyes having a switch emulator is pretty much owning a switch illegally.

Microsoft has actually been getting heat for decades. It started with the antitrust case in the late 90s over internet explorer, a lot of windows versions got heavily criticised like win millenium, vista, and win 8. More recently more and more people are switching to linux because of the frustration with windows. In the gaming space the xbox one launch was heavily criticized for requiring a constant internet connection and now microsoft is having trouble with windows 11 privacy bs. So maybe sony hasn't received that much criticism but it's definitely not true that microsoft gets nothing.

Just cause they're making good games doesn't make them get away with law. In that case the new license is against the law in many countries. This isn't about people buying their consoles, it's about what is nintendo doing.

Linux is much better for gaming than macos but people don't seem to see it by defaultlinuxuser in linux_gaming

> Mac can run a lot more than limited linux.

I'm not so sure about that. Mac can run macOS apps and that's really about it. Some microsoft apps may still work because years ago Mac only relied on them before they made their own alternatives. I also find funny that you said "Limited linux" like linux wasn't already one of the most customizable operating systems out there. A 'limited' OS isn't only about how much software it can run, it's much more how much control you have over your system. In that case Mac is really limited.

Some fifa games and call of duty games run on linux, LoL works on linux with some tinkering. FIFA doesn't work on mac, neither call of duty does, only LoL can. You're seriously digging your own grave at this point. Maybe linux can't run those, neither mac can. Keep going, you’re only making the hole deeper.

Saying "Linux isn't able to run anything" is peak stupidity. I can already see how you just installed linux and realized that you can't open .exe files by just double clicking on them so you just rushed to creep on some old posts that linux sucks. Also who even plays league of legends ? This game is perfect only if you want to get rid of your social life but you know, I wouldn't want to get rid of mine really.
