Reflecting on my first year running solely Linux (as opposed to dual-booting), I think that this culture comes from the fact that, on Linux, problems can more often than not be solved. If not solved, then at least understood. When you want to change something on Windows, or something breaks, you have far less room to maneuver.

When I was a Windows user, I’d barely ever submitted a bug report for anything, in spite of being very tech-literate. It felt hopeless, as my entire experience with the OS was that if a fix would come, it’d have to be done by someone else.

Linux treating its users like adults, produces users who are more confident and more willing to contribute.

The car game I spent the most time with and therefore have the most nostalgia for is Burnout Paradise.

Errant Signal did a great video on it that reflects on a lot of what I love about it.

If this gets us another Internet Historian video on the fallout, then this is worth it.

It’d be bad enough if this were just another AAA over hyped deal.

This is literally Bethesda. What are these people smoking?

Literally bought it this weekend for the awesome force feedback. Blows F1 22 out of the water.

I bought Returnal last week! I was loving it but I kept hitting the limit on my 8GB VRAM :( decided to put it down and wait until Nvidia VRAM consumption on Linux improves or (more likely) I upgrade my GPU.

Can't play Destiny 2 on Linux :(

Fellow NixOS traveller. I used Nix for work and never saw the appeal of a whole OA built around it but when I saw a tutorial with the declarative config I was instantly sold.
