I just switched from Arch to Endeavour to Fedora! My 2 cents:

  • Arch is like a barebones Lego box without instructions, only a set of pictures. Sure, you get a paper telling you how to ensamble a basic OS, but what to do of it is up to you. For example, you might want a firewall there, right? or maybe a systemd timer to trim your ssd? IDK, you can guess it on your own. The pieces are there, it's up to you to decide what to use.
  • Endeavour is like that same Lego box where someone handled you the manual from another themed box. If you installed Arch on your own, and felt like you might've missed something, or something feels off, EndeavourOS just gives you the ensambled set for you to play with. The problem? No problem, really. It feels like a greatly configured Arch installation.
  • Fedora feels like a themed box. You don't have whole lot of bricks like that other unthemed box (AUR), but damn, everything just works and it works great. Only caveat is that non free stuff (drivers, codecs, etc) require that you input some commands (but really, every linux distro requires this still). So far, my experience is between "wow, I didn't know you could do/have this! Must've missed it in the arch wiki" and "damn, there's no easy way to install X in Fedora? I miss the AUR :("

Good! Now that you know, can you answer my question and tell me an alternative?

Oh, you don’t know what SaaS stands by?

[–] Perroboc@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Haptics feel like enough, because proper rumble motors take a lot of space, spend more battery, and actually shake the whole device which is not desirable in a handheld device

Honest question: is there a centralized alternative? Like “here, install this or use this SaaS, it enables your community to chat, discuss in forums, and allows you to manage a FAQ/KB from the content from the chat and forums”

EDIT: don’t get why the downvotes. It’s a question, not a statement.

My brother in Christ, installing a .deb is downloading the .deb directly, as you would when downloading discord from discord.com, and you use dpkg to install it (apt uses dpkg to install the deb file).

You saying “the deb file” is not the same as “using the official repo”, as dependencies might not have been installed by only using the .deb file.

Make sense?

[–] Perroboc@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (4 children)

What .deb file? Their page says to add a repo and use apt:

sudo apt install curl

sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg

echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main"|sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list

sudo apt update

sudo apt install brave-browser

Steamdb says it has a Linux native client. If you don’t select a compatibility tool, the game should ran in its native version.

And how did you install brave?

My son came into my life 4 years ago, and my daughter arrived 2 years after that. It’s been wonderful having them in my life, and I’m really happy!

But I left some things aside when they arrived, they take your life by storm and it’s difficult to focus on the things you used to do before them. One of these things is board games.

I used to play with friends like once a month, and built my collection around that group. Some games were meant to be played with my wife, and occasionally with her friends too.

Now I want to start playing again, and I’m thinking of two paths that may not be exclusive.

  1. Play with friends really late at night when my kids finally get a full night of uninterrupted sleep (not yet)
  2. Play with my kids. Haba games are well received here (my first orchid was a success), and these holidays we’re stacking up with like 4 more games (I really hope they like them).

So yeah, this is not much of a question but just wanted to share that I still like this hobby after 4 years, and hope to keep sharing it with friends and family 🙂

Try setting VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr as a launch argument for the game

 

I recently finished Rise of the Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy XVI, and I’m hesitant what I should play next (PC or PS5).

With FF I enjoyed the game and the story was all I expected from it, and I’m really looking forward to the DLC.

With Tomb Raider… damn that game is all over the place. The story is predictable, and also stupid. “Why did you rush in there? Without weapons? Against an army?”, and other similar thoughts kept running through my head. I don’t feel inclined to play Shadow of the tomb Raider (the sequel).

I have a backlog of too many games, and lately it takes a lot of effort to start because I don’t know if it’s worth the time investment. I love games with good stories, and playing a game that puts the lore and story in the background feels like a waste of time.

Sure, I could get started on Baldurs Gate 3, I’ve heard great things. But is the story great? Will I be able to say “oh that chapter/fight/act is awesome!” To other people looking for game experiences?

Experiences like Escaping from the ship in Super Metroid, helping that king in Witcher 3, fighting Psycho Mantis in MGS, fighting Titan in FFXVI, killing the first colossus, escaping from darth Vader, that first Mario odyssey stage, beating the first boss in Bloodborne, playing “Brothers” for the first time and getting to the ending… all great experiences with awesome stories to tell

TL;DR: what am I missing?
