How many goes have that had with the hulk and spider man movies?
I got my CNC router working via wine about 2 years ago. Was very happy when it not only worked but worked well. Thought I was going to need to setup a dedicated windows PC for it but I can just use my workshop/tinkering laptop.
People are lazy as fuck. Provided it plays their games they don’t give a shit about features updates, patches, bug fixes etc.
They probably have no ideal what version of windows is even installed on their machine.
I’ve done it. I agree it can be done very easily. But is relying on all new users entering the right question into google and google returning a correct answer for their distro that is not 7 years out of date the best strategy in the long run?
Any distro that does not offer a option during install or on first boot to just install this stuff with a promt is not new user friendly.
I second popos and mint. I love fedora but if he is a gamer you want something that will just work (navida built in or a very easy one click mechanism to get it). If he has to research PPAs and installing rpmfussion it will get all too hard very quickly. Also do some expectation setting before hand, research what games he plays work on linux, better he finds out now rather than after 2 hours of pain or getting band for “hacking” because of proton triggered an anti-cheat thing.
Edit: I run fedora on all my machines except my gaming rig which is popos. Fedora works too but popos is hassle a free experience.
I tried helping family and friends as well however the reasons why I wanted to switch (privacy issues and getting served start menu ads) where not shared.
Most people don’t care how something works or the moderations behind it just that it works and more importanty that it works exaclly the same way each time.
Ignoring an ad or slightly modifying your tolerance for a increasing shit process is more easy that trying a completely new approach.
The way Mac OS overcomes this is with “buy in”, its expensive so people are more motivated to actually learn the Mac OS way to do things so their purchasing choices are validated. There are more reason but this is a big one.
Just keep yours expectations reliatic. Just because someone complains about windows does not mean they are ready to switch.
Have not used windows on my personal computer and laptop for 3 years now. I still game, proton is awesome.
Sure, for a colour of a screw driver but not major business decisions or when LTT just got a smack down by Steve. He should be taking to his team.
During the week production break he needed to ask if he should still do the WAN show; I don’t see how that answer was not obvious to anyone with an half a gram of common sense.
People can be trolls, what if enough assholes decided to get him to do the WAN show that week? Or what if there where too many hardcore fans that would agree to anything?
Just a lot if risks throwing questions like that out there and following through on the result… Just look at brexit.
Like when they stopped production for a week he needed to do a poll to see if he should run the WAN show that week.
Like wise when he was thinking about investing in framework he had to ask the people if that was a good idea.
They are not what the used to be that’s for sure. I rarely watch them and when I do I normally remember why I don’t within a minute. Still hoping the will lift their game but subebed to a lot of other tech channels as they are all better than “how many USB device can you plug into a PC”.
I read the text in the thumbnails…
It a shitty mindset but a common one. Putting warrenty claims asside, specs still aren’t everything. Look at the coverage of gaming hand helds (switch/steam deck vs Asus ally). Linus thinks windows in this form factor is an advantage to the user experience because specification number goes up.
I don’t, it does not feel genuine anymore, they just pump them out.
SNL is giving LTT too much credit.
When I croped it I knew someone would comment on it. Rest assure F-droid updates are done.
Totally agree on the first part though, he is a total tech fan boy.
He is constantly taking his surface level knowledge of item X and extrapolateing it out to create new assumptions but he saying it with enough confidence that it sounds like a fact.
PopOs fucked up a bit leaving that iso live for so long with the steam cache issue, but Linus has to take responsibility here to. It was not “totally on the OS” there where many off ramps that where missed.
For example:
He got into this issue mainly because he was rushing, it was more entertaining and created drama.
Anyone eles noticed that LTT (excluding LMG clips) have not dropped their usual daily videos yet. Leads me to believe they saw this GN video.
Good work Steve, they are already taking a bit more time on today’s video at least!
Yes! The Linux coverage from LTT is positive and encourageing UNLESS Linus is in the video then he looks for any excuse to raise his voice and yell “this is stupid” or “its going to break on me in 5 minutes”. Emily’s very good coverage of PopOS back in 2019 ish got me into Linux and I have not looked back. Its disappointing to see how with many things (not just Linux) how Linus will change the direction of a video to be more entertainmenting/clickbaity at the cost of good information and quality.
Sounds like circumcision propaganda to me.
