It depends entirely on the game and yes some games work with EAC on Steamdeck but not on Linux desktop…for some reason.
Ironsight on Steam (before it shut down) didn’t work on Linux for the longest time, The devs eventually enabled EAC through proton for about a year before making it Steamdeck only during the final months the servers were online.
And even using Steamdeck=1 in the launch commands didn’t fix that game for me. >.>
Should note EndeavourOS is just Arch with an easier installer and slightly pre-configured with common dependencies installed out the box.
EndeavourOS + KDE is what got me daily driving Linux and even after using vanilla Arch for 2 months at one point, I went back to EndeavourOS because it was just less hassle.
I posted another update. while the previous fix kinda worked, It couldn’t run the game with mods. (which most PD2 players these days do) and I didn’t really test that before logging off for the night.
Ended up being more an issue on my systems end than the game itself. >.>
Just tried on the same Proton version both with and without the wsock command and still nothing…
Went back to try Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 for PS2 after getting into the series from the new game on Steam.
The driving is a lot more unforgiving than the new game but It started to grow on me the more I played it.
The games doing very well with new players but getting mixed reviews from longtime BF fans.
I installed Windows again on a 2nd SSD just to play the beta and honestly wasn’t impressed… undeniably an improvement over 2042, But what’s the point in settling for better then dogshit when I can still play the peak of the franchise? and play them on Linux!
Yeah I meant P2P my bad.
Soulseek is I2P not Torrenting, but I’ve found it to be the best place to find music by a long shot.
Edit: It’s actually P2P not I2P
99% of the time yes.
That 1% I’ve ran into is when games that have an native Linux version, run an outdated build of the game. Payday 2 and Borderlands are the only games I’ve had this happen on.
But both these were easily fixable by running the Windows version of the game through Proton instead of the Linux native version.
If you’re willing to buy a stolen iD please just pay for a VPN.
You can pay for Mullvad by mailing them cash or buying a gift card off Amazon.
I dunno about that exact cursor but you can have a look here to see if any catch their eye.
Even if you don’t want it to to be…
Currently got my Sonic Adventure playthrough on pause because I can’t for the life of me catch that stupid frog in Big’s fishing mini game!
I’ll see your Bic and raise you Zippo!
Just got my first one a while back, I bought it 2nd hand and it’s 7 years older than me and works better than any lighters I’ve borrowed off people over the years.
Replacement parts and even completely new lighter inserts still fit the original cases from the 1940s until now. And if something does break beyond you ability to repair, They got a lifetime warranty with no proof of purchase needed!
Never tried any of this before, I’ve barely touched Windows (outside of work) since 2023.
But a few of the more tech savvy people I know had done clean installs of Windows 10 LTSC IoT and recommended it.
So I just launched a VM and started looking stuff up to see if there was a way of doing it without needing a clean install. Because seems most people I know are more willing to risk running an EOL OS than actually backup their shit…
I replied to another comment explaining it.
You can use regedit to make the LTSC IoT installer think you’re already on an LTSC IoT build so it just installs without doing a clean install.
I first learnt about it from this Youtube video but they only show how to get the base LTSC version and not IoT which will get updates until 2032.
Here’s the values I used.
“CurrentBuild”=“19044”
“CurrentBuildNumber”=“19044”
“EditionID”=“IoTEnterpriseS”
“ProductName”=“Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021”
“ReleaseId”=“2009”
“DisplayVersion”=“21H2”
I have them in a registry script along with txt guide I’ve been sending to my friends. Not sure if I can directly post them here however.
You can convert existing Windows 10 installs to LTSC or IoT, Without losing files. I’ve been helping a few people I know switch over the last few days.
I would obviously like it if more people moved to Linux, but most people I know ain’t gonna more because of certain software…okay it’s mainly Fortnite and Call of Duty. >.>
I’ll help anyone with it who actually wants to try Linux, I got at least one person to try dual booting.
I use a DS4 and used a DS3 for years before that.
Using none Xbox controllers on PC used to be a pain, I remember the hoops I had to jump through to get my DS3 pad working with Windows 7. Now it’s easier than ever.
I actually didn’t like the DS4 controller for the longest time because of the thumb-sticks but found some replacements a while back that has the more comfy (to me) domed design of the earlier PS controllers.
Amazon Link, couldn’t find them sold anywhere else in the UK sadly…
I also used Notepadqq for the first year I used Linux, I ended up switching to Kate since it did everything I liked about Notepad++ and it came installed with my KDE desktop soooo.
Also for the few times I gotta use a terminal text editor I use Micro (It really should be the default instead of Nano)
You’ll still only get a very small subset of people willing to even attempt to switch over to Linux in those events.
It isn’t even about disliking change or ‘using what you’re used to’ at this point, since Windows is drastically changing all the time (for the worse) but most people just get used to it as the “new normal” and we’re the weird ones for trying to actually take control of the situation, and look for better alternatives.
