Leopards Ate My Face@lemmy.world•Three-time Trump voter denounces president over racist Obamas video: 'I want to apologize'English
26·27 days agoI actually agree. He wiped off his clown make-up.
It’s sad it took this long, but if enough people have this kind of realization, then the country may still heal. It’s one less person squabbling with others in the same class, and I’m led to believe that is what the ruling class fears most.

2·2 months agoI recently played Doom Eternal, and I swear they’ve done some black magic with that game. It seems crazy well optimized. Very happy with it!

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Gamers Are Overwhelmingly Negative About Gen AI in Video Games, but Attitudes Vary by Gender, Age, and Gaming Motivations.
11·2 months agoI just started Doom Eternal and the book spines there are hilarious! I don’t want that to be generative AI

Gaming@lemmy.ml•When was the last time you actually laughed while playing a game?

I think I’m at the top of mount stupid, because I’m certainly not competent.
I started with Linux Mint and daily drove that for a while. Really liked it too. Then I noticed that screen sharing ssssuuucked when playing games, and since Mint’s Wayland didn’t want to work on my machine, I decided to jump ship.
I’m currently on Nobara (Glorious Eggroll’s Fedora flavor) and… it’s just pretty easy to work with.
Or maybe I’m at the know nothing stage, along with PopOS
Thank you. I appreciate the vote of confidence :)
I think a lot of documentation just fly over my head. I have a masters degree in mathematics, but so many manuals have such deeply ingrained “tribal” language that everyone takes for granted that you know.
If you have a good starting point for a poor linux noob to read manuals, hit me up.
(That being said, I DO read the manuals for appliances and all that. THAT stuff is luckily easy)
I recently replayed Metal Gear Rising, and when Armstrong kept talking about how much of a pussy America has become and started yelling that with him at the helm, he’d MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, I was fucking shocked.
Granted, I know that term was an old Reagan term, but fuck, with Metal Gear Solid 2 (2001) being all about the internet flooding with misinformation and AI making it so that you don’t truly know who you’re talking with… And with Rising (2013) being about a dude thinking America is too woke and wanting to make it great again… AND WITH DEATH STRANDING (2019) being all about everyone being locked inside their homes, isolated with little physical connection to their friends and families, only waiting for the mailman to arrive with packages…
Whew, if I had to point out a person I suspect may have a functioning time machine, Kojima might be it…

News@lemmy.world•YouTube star Mikayla Raines dies by suicide at 29, husband blames online abuse
191·8 months agoThere are a scant few people who deserve to be bullied for their actions of hurting others. Mikayla was NOT one of them. How someone can bully someone who is doing their best to help make the world better… I can never understand.
I saw people saying that she made a lot of mistakes that could have been avoided, and while that may be, at least she did something about it, unlike so many others.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•PC Gaming’s Mascot Squad—who makes the cut?English
2·9 months agoTo me, it has to be Gordon Freeman. He represents Valve, and I can’t think of a gaming company more linked to PC gaming than Valve.
I adore king’s quest, space quest and all these classics. Same with Monkey Island, but when it comes to… Well, mascot sounds wrong. Figurehead may be better here, I think Gordon’s ties to Valve gives him a pretty strong case for PC gaming icon.
The goose from untitled goose game doesn’t feel like a PC gaming mascot to me since it’s a single game that’s also on almost every console.

I won’t argue with you.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•How to Game on Linux - Roger Presents Garuda [Swedish with EN subs]English
41·9 months agoThat’s a bit reductive, don’t you think?
The beauty of Linux is its wonderful ability to be customized. Maybe Xanmod is a good kernel for you if you play games?
Maybe if you use a desktop environment with Wayland, you’ll have less issues with screen sharing in Discord.
It’s always nice to hear what other people’s experiences are. Depending on the distro, updating drivers can be a bit trickier than noobs might expect since “Driver manager” might not actually have the newest drivers, etc.
Telling people to RTFM is all well and good, but why not share the stuff you’ve learned with others who are just getting started?

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•How to Game on Linux - Roger Presents Garuda [Swedish with EN subs]English
72·9 months agoHow to get performance boosts through the newest drivers. How to play games and streaming them on discord without tanking the framerate. How to troubleshoot if something goes wrong. Which kernel to use, etc.
There are so many Nuances to gaming on Linux, so there’s definitely a market for it. Not seen this video yet though, could be just surface level stuff.

Is nobara more or less unhinged than Bazzite?
