Yeah, gotta have that and all that Secure Boot with TPM bullshit, because I'm visualizing a company workstation and nothing will work without those.

Because for some reason, no matter what I try, Windows 10 desktop is laggy as hell on Qemu, and smooth out of the box on VirtualBox.

I got the disc version for used games too, but the sad truth is that where I live there isn't really a market for used games.

Or, well, there is, but the prices on used discs are often barely below retail price, if you can even find a copy.

It's not like physical media makes any difference anyway these days.

Actual disk often gets just a glorified installer, and even if it includes the entire game you're likely to have to activate it online anyway.

The "own your games" ship has sailed long ago, unless you only buy no-DRM and your own backups.

One of the reasons being Nvidia forcing unethical vendor lock in through their licensing.

That's a very... capitalist way of thinking.

Also, fun fact: Kagi owner believes only criminals want privacy and GDPR doesn't apply to them, because they said so!

Well, "not to be confused", but the same page says AAVE is just a dialect of AAE, so mostly not much of a difference, I think.

For anyone that, like me, was confused what the hell is this language: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_English

Seems to be proper name for the kind of language a stereotypical black character in a movie would use.
Can't say about real world, since I don't live in the USA.

Heh, I was confused because I switched full-time to Wayland a while ago and that was never an issue for any game... but then you mentioned Nvidia. RIP

I saw they switched recently to partially open source drivers, so hopefully it's gonna be better for you soon.

I'm currently using KZones, actually, it's not automatic, but it works pretty great.
