None of that should be necessary, as the SKSE team reacted quickly and has already updated the Script Extender to work with the new patch.

Hopefully the updated SKSE will fix the old mods. But Bethesda really wants to keep making money off Skyrim, and the new Starfield. I am really worried about the next Elder Scrolls game, because Bethesda has really gone down as a game company. Greed is the word.

So scammers preying on the poor and desperate with promises of easy loans. Scammers are terrible.

Kate Mulgrew was a very distinctive voice. I heard it right away in Dragon Age Origin.

Patrick Stewart also has a great voice in Elder Scrolls Oblivion.

The first person from Trek I remember hearing in a game was Leonard Nimoy in Civilization.

If you were looking for a Remote Desktop program to help a customer or other user, TeamViewer worked for me on Ubuntu. It was a great way to fix an issue remotely with a Windows user.

But you may not be looking for this type of connection.

It is a propaganda machine. X does it too. And I believe YouTube is allowing it too. (Check me on this one).

This.

X and Facebook are allowing false claims about how the 2020 election was rigged. Hope that Nevada can get their findings out to help stop all the misinformation that Republicans and social media post.

Wayland is the future and X11 is heading to the past.

Hairyblue,
@Hairyblue@kbin.social avatar

I want everyone to move over to Wayland too.

I use my Linux PC for gaming. Last time I tried Steam/Nvidia with Wayland I could only get one game to launch. So hopefully those 2 will work on making Wayland happen for us.

I was waiting for Nvidia drivers 545 to try again, but I checked last weekend and Ubuntu still had 535 drivers. I hear Nvidia did a lot of fixes for wayland on the new drivers.

@Hairyblue@kbin.social avatar

I have always liked Nvidia for years. When I moved to Linux, the Nvidia drivers have been working great on X11. I am currently playing Baldur's Gate 3 and I have DLSS 2 turned on and get frame rates at 100. Looks great and awesome game. But I know Wayland is the future and want Nvidia to work well with it and Steam. I will get an AMD if I have to but my card is still great and I am not looking for a new one yet.

How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?

I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....

All my games work with Steam/Proton (thanks Value!) and I mainly use my desktop as a gaming PC. I do some bussiness stuff but LibreOffice will work. Or I also use Google Docs to do things--can be saved as Microsoft Office file types or PDF.

But you are right, if you need a Windows only program, then Windows is the only option. I had to update the firmware on my Xbox controller that I use with Steam to play my games. I had to wipe one of my laptops and put a copy of Windows on there to get this done. Another time there was a free Baldurs Gate game from Amazon games I could get, BUT you needed the Amazon Game app to get it. And it only ran on Windows. I put Windows on a laptop, download the free game, then moved it to my Linux Gaming PC. After adding it to Steam as a non Steam game, I was exploring dugeons with elves and dwarves.

It's still a Windows world, but IF enough gamers switch to Linux that could change. And Microsoft is only going to get worse with ads.

I can't think of a reason why I would want to hide a game. What am I missing?

I didn't know this. I guess to me, playing a game is not the same activity as enjoying porn. But now I know. Thanks.

I don't think there should be a 4k tier. They should be tiered on ads and number of users. Why should quality be a tier?

This. McCarthy was blaming Democrats for the looming shut down. He didn't work with Democrats or offer anything for their support.

Why didn't a few Republicans vote for the Democrat that was so close to winning the speakership?

This is great that Linux gamers take the time to submit quality bug reports.

I also put in reviews of games that work with Linux and give my PC specs and Linux Distribution.

I like his performance as Mr Bester on Babylon 5. He did a great job.

His hair was very thin by then

Hairyblue,

Babylon 5 tells a big story over the seasons. Characters grow and change through out it's run. You see people doing something in season one and don't know why/what it means. But they eventually come back to it and it weaves a great story. You'll love it.

I couldn't get through it either.

I don't think this person cares about other people-their suffering or death. But I would imagine that if it were them being bombed, they would want other people to help keep them alive. It is a selfish and short view of the world.

Daragon Age Origins is awesome. It was fun playing the game where your choices affected the outcome of the game. And you got to play different characters--poor, rich, royalty, slave.

Baldur's Gate 3 is like this game and updated.

I am a Linux gamer. I don't know if this game would work with Proton. I checked the ProtonDB and no entries for it yet.

Companies don't want their ads next to post by bigots, racist, fascist, and Republicans against our democracy.

"Linux Desktop: A Collective Delusion" - an unhinged rant (tadeubento.com)

Linux has made significant strides, and in 2023, it’s better than ever. However, there are still individuals perpetuating a delusion: that desktop Linux is as user-friendly and productive as its mainstream counterparts. After a few discussions on Lemmy, I believe it’s important to provide a clear review of where Linux falls...

Hairyblue,
@Hairyblue@kbin.social avatar

I switched to Linux/Ubuntu when I found out all of my Steam games work on Linux. I was shocked but it was true. I heard there are a few games that don't work because of EAC but I don't have any of those. I even added all my non steam games to steam and they work. Even Project 1999 works, Baldur's Gate 1, and 2 works...and works very well. I am playing the newest games too like Baldur's Gate 3 and Lords of the Fallen on max settings with my XBox controller.

My PC and I think a lot of people's PC are used for gaming. Now I also installed Google Chrome when I did have to do some business. I was able to make Office friendly files for my resume and PDFs with Google docs. When I did need to do some graphic work I used gimp. Ubuntu saw my Brother network printer and I printed what I needed.

I am sure there are people who need software that will not work on Linux, but a lot of people could use Linux for their everyday PC use. Most people game or use the web browser.

I am a current Ubuntu user since around 2020. I left windows for good when they release windows 11.

Love the look of the new snap store in Minotaur, but want the ability to install local deb file back.

Hairyblue,
@Hairyblue@kbin.social avatar

I installed GDebi from the store and used that. But the snap store use to let you use the store to install the local deb file. To be more user friendly, I hope they make this work again.

I have installed things with the CLI but like a GUI better.

So democrats doing what the people want done again and Republicans trying to stop it from happening.

This looks like a big update. I'm downloading it now. I'm looking forward to the new app store, updated kernel, and Gnome look great. I like the minotaur wallpaper too.

Republicans are going to be very angry he is an independent now. RFK Jr is anti science, anti vaccine, and a bigot. You know he will suck the Trump votes from right leaning independent and never Trumpers.

I had a dream about windows and have decided to setup Linux on my laptop. What distro should I use?

I used Ubuntu once a few years ago but had compatability issues so I went back to windows. Not a great programmer but I’d like to learn. I’m not looking to do much gaming beyond DOOM2 and factorio. Mostly looking for privacy and a way to get back into programming (I have this pipe dream of learning Assembly). I’m not to...

I use my PC for gaming. Ubuntu works well for me with my new hardware: Intel 13gen, Nvidia 3080, Steam.

Twitter or X is a propaganda machine.

I'm a Monty P fan from way back. But I think this is a bad idea. Culture and times change and some people just don't keep up with them or care to.
