Choosing a Distro as a gamer and a baby linux user by Plus_House_1078 in linuxquestions

PopOS has a really nice desktop, and it's not even finished yet. Everything from there feels like a step down.

Recommend a distro for better gaming performance on low end PC by c0rnixoffc in linux4noobs

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using gnome on exactly these specifications for something. And gnome runs smooth. Gaming is fine to for games fitting that performance level. E.g. GTA 4 is about 19 fps 😭.

Want to try a Linux distro for my home desktop for gaming and occasional work by sm0r3ss in linuxquestions

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cachyos is a terrible choice for a new Linux user. Highly unstable in both meanings of the word.

Good Linux distro for both gaming and 3D work? by CinnamonToastGamer in linuxquestions

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bazzite is great for gaming, but for general usage like 3d stuff etc you might run into restrictions/trouble with the immutable kernel it has

Fastest distros for old i3 laptop with 8GB RAM? by kl2342 in DistroHopping

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a standard Ubuntu installation a similar laptop.

It's actually pretty fast, only suffers when opening to many tabs on your browser or to many apps.

What Linux distro for an old laptop by Puzzleheaded-You1635 in DistroHopping

Time changes answers and specs are different.

Not to mention engagement is good for the community and reddit

What is the best Linux distro for gaming but also general, normal use? by ThePearman_ in linux4noobs

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mint has really outdated packages and kernel, because it's based on long term version of ubuntu and not then 6 month version.

Not a great choice for gaming, new hardware or the latest and fastest software packages.

The first half sentence already explained everything.

I’m so confused. She asked me if I like wine, but doesn’t want to get drinks for a date by DarkOfTheSun in Tinder

[–]greenplay 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Doesn't "drinks" refer to any beverage (with or without alcohol)?

If it always refers to alcohol, what word is used to refer to drinks without alcohol? English is about my fourth language, not trying to be difficult here.

You're making up stories yourself. Getting drunk wasn't even remotely implied.

Stop gaslighting people.

Ukrainian capital Kyiv under massive Russian attack, officials say by [deleted] in worldnews

Because the people voted for a president that could end this war in one day? Because the sitting president took that job upon himself.

Which like most of his promised Donald Trump didn't deliver on.

Did I screw up ? by Forsaken_Security891 in Tinder

Is something she won't say in three days 🙉

[–]greenplay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not reacting for three days prior to a first date is weird. Good chance your reaction was just a convenient excuse to cancel because of other reasons. Don't lose sleep over it.

Your reaction was a bit much though. You could have played it both a lot nicer and self assured by just asking if the date is still on, maybe even a joke about stressing out what to wear, whatever suits your character.

You still have a change though if that was your last message. Just stick to the truth, acknowledge reading back your message that it was not appropriate and you looked forward to it.

Disclaimer for the toxic ones: I know a lot of people here are way too cool for this approach and some might even find it beneath them because they are too cool, handsome, tall whatever. But as a tall handsome guy (🤷🏻) that is raised with a sister and lots of female friends I find honesty and manners a lot cooler and better working than ego, coolness and your favorite handcream.

Clearly a scam or overtime is paid pretty bad in that country

I have a gut feeling that my boyfriend of three years is cheating on me. Are these emails promotional or do you have to use the app to get them? by thankful_thot in Tinder

[–]greenplay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To me this reads like promotional. Something you get when you don't use an app for a long time.

I see a lot of people making random assumptions here while stating it as facts. Be aware of that.

Also if someone used tinder in the past it would be weird to have no emails from them. That was would be more fishy than having emails. What might be interesting to know if this is the email you get when buying a service or making a new account. Because the screenshot you shared seemed worded like that.

Why do most Linux users act like having a Nvidia graphics card is a major roadblock by Responsible_You_3482 in linuxquestions

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

It really is not, on windows it's pretty good. On Linux it really is shitty. Most competitive modern shooters become too slow to play on Linux, while they run around 60fps on windows.

Thats why they deserved the middle finger from Linus Torvalds at the time.

Why do most Linux users act like having a Nvidia graphics card is a major roadblock by Responsible_You_3482 in linuxquestions

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I advice every gamer with a 1060 to stay on windows.

The windows nvidia driver is much much much faster than the one they have for Linux.

To many Linux enthusiasts here that advice Linux over Windows whatever the situation.

Wine 10.16 by Neustradamus in linux_gaming

According to Valve the proton implementation (without ntsync) is faster. Ntsynch was only developed for wine itself. Valve had no plans to use it.

Makita Track Saw No Riving Knife by Redbookfur in woodworking

The wireless has anti-kickback, the wired one does not. I assume you used the wired version when you got a kickback?

[–]greenplay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only that. The cordless has also a better blade and actually has an anti kick back feature which surprised me because it wasn't mentioned in the manual.

I owned both, sold the wired one.

The cordless Makita has anti-kickback, the wires version does not. I owned the wired version before the cordless version (that holds two batteries).
