No self awareness whatsoever

Nice

Weirdest troll 2024.

Is this satire?

Let’s goooooo we getting a bean reveal

In a perfect world he doesn’t deserve it either. He deserves extensive jail time.

No one deserves to fear for their life for 3 years straight.

That mod looks insane

As someone who only ever played civ 6, I played one game for a whole week and never got bored.

So whatever draws you to civ 5, I am drawn in to civ 6 the same way.

I find that very interesting, considering you don’t like it as much.

Yes. I didn’t list blender because blender is kind of a unique case. An open source tool that basically slowly became industry standard? That’s a 1 in a million from what I’ve seen. But: as soon as you get professional, like I said, all the plugins and additional software will cause headaches, provided it works at all. The tools I listed there afaik do not have native support / are very unstable on Linux, although I haven’t confirmed it.

But yeah I get your point, and it is quite the accomplishment to the blender devs that they made it this far, tho it is not the rule.

Yes and people sell Linux to my like “either it works out of the box or it takes like 1google search” and that’s polar opposite from my longer experience on Linux.

For work I had to set up an Ubuntu VM. Ubuntu is one of the most stable OS variants. But: it literally started throwing system application errors after 2h from a fresh install. We thought it was a one time thing or that we did something wrong so we tried again. The OS disk image was official and our VM Software was Virtual box. Both are supposed to be stable. And still, the OS started crying 2h in every time.

Or another time where I had to find scanner drivers and I lost it. 5h of searching and tinkering, I had to rewrite scripts I found which didn’t work, had to add package manager repositories to my system, and try to look for 15y+ old forum posts which get very technical but also not really in depth. For a fucking scanner.

And then that time aI wanted to install some software (I think maybe Skype) from the official Ubuntu store. But it just wouldn’t work. Everyone else apparently had no issues online. Everyone except for me. Tried to install it through downloading an archive and when that didn’t work I installed it through the terminal apt-get. It still wouldn’t work iirc.

Or that time I had an Ubuntu VM for like half a year and applications started to hang and the system started getting random issues.

Or that time Linux system just threw errors on every system upgrade (same happened to updates).

This is a reoccurring thing and this toxic Linux positivity will only make more people mad when things are not as promised and they realize they are fucked.

Yeah wtf

• Try producing decent music on Linux: run into issues with DAWs and plugins.
• try 3d anything more advanced on Linux: any fluid or gas simulation gets annoying real quick (real flow, Houdini, vray, octane)
• try layouting / handout design on linux: yeah let’s hate on Adobe (and I do think they deserve it) but let’s also realize most of the industry runs on their tools and Linux makes it complicated

Either you sacrifice money and freedom, or you sacrifice time and sanity. And I’m sorry, if I wanna do multiple of those things there’s no way around mac or windows. I wish it was different, but it isn’t and we gotta be realistic here.

And yes I see y’all shouting that there’s a way for all of those things through workarounds but: for every one of those that works for me, there just as many that don’t work, than just as many that restrict me in different ways, just as many that require documentation that I have to pull out of my ass cause it’s not online, and just as many that make me look for the toenail of a harpy and sauron’s tears to work.

Linux is not a direct alternative to windows, but it’s a lifestyle and a commitment and I’m not out here trying to make it my personality, I want software to work in less than a month of me deciding to install it.

I can see the down votes rolling in on this but I’m tired of ppl selling their lifestyle instead of their OS.

Would love if there was open source software hard budgeted in there on an EU level…

Definitely not touching any Microsoft or Activision game. Bad idea.

I just talked to someone about CoD and the only hope we have is treyarch fighting through corporate bullshit to make their game good.

No Man’s Sky!

I gave it another try and I’m starting to get into the flow of the game now. I will say it has a bit of higher entry barrier than you would expect, but I start to get why people love this game so much after it’s countless updates.

Can recommend if you’re into that space vibe where you just travel, discover, and build towards specific things.

That’s because the games materials and everything are very creative and this new layer literally just updates it to modern graphics.

Would never work on those triple A games where the developers don’t even bother because they are busy fighting burnout.

Pokemon literally crying rn.

Something something are these nuts fitton in you face…

Maybe I got that wrong then…

confirming the developers will take a look at it

I can tell you with 99.9% certainty the developers did and do not give a duck about this or might even be opposed to the pricing model.

Why would you rope them in? It’s not like Ben from level design personally specified the price of the missions. Why even involve them? If that’s PR that makes it so much worse for me if they are trying to blame different departments internally. What a clusterfuck, I’m sorry for the humble low level employee who are being mangled in this mess. You are not the reason this is shit, but your bosses bosses made you part of this clown fiesta.
