Got a gaming laptop some months ago, and it is actually very powerful indeed. But it came with Win11 by default, only requiring the final setup. Now… How can a system lag a decent laptop so much.
Needless to say, it didn’t take much for me to decide to swap for good ol’ Mint Xfce, and even try out a few other Linux systems, and now, pretty much everything runs flawlessly, at most requiring to avoid using the ultra settings.
But indeed, Windows is bloat incarnated, and it only gets worse. So much so it even feels like Win10 on a VM can clog the whole system. Weird how that doesn’t happen with Win7, no matter how long I leave it open on a VM.
2·10 months agoDunno when/how a game is classified a classic, but since PS2 is from the 6th gen, guess I have some suggestions! =D
Ultimate Ninja 5 is pretty cool, I think. Don’t like the anime much, but gameplay loop still feels pretty good nowadays. Only released on PAL and NTSC-J regions, though.
Dragon Ball - Budokai Tenkaichi 2 is also pretty fun, coming from someone that also doesn’t like the series it comes from.
I guess Godzilla: Unleashed could count as fighting game too? If so, I recommend it too.
Yes. ( also just remembered there are some mix up in naming conventions across the fediverse… "<.< )
Just checked your instance, and this page seems like a good start:
https://lemm.ee/communities?listingType=All&page=1Then you can filter pages around, subscribe to pages as they pick your interest, etc.
Then, if it’s anything like Lemmy World about sorting (can’t verify since I don’t have an account in your instance), you can visit https://lemm.ee/?dataType=Post&listingType=Subscribed&page=1&sort=New to check all your subscribed contents, and by newest (I recommend “newest” because I get the impression posts start repeating themselves after a while with other sorting features).
31·11 months agoI’d suggest Linux Mint.
- Simple UI
- (Xfce version specifically) is very fast (within reason; it’s still a modern OS)
- It’s already pretty keyboard-centric and it can be improved further if you like tinkering (my reason for dropping Windows was precisely lack of keyboard-centric controls, so if I stick to Mint, I guess it’s good on that front)
- Keys can be custom mapped, although I guess most bigger Linux systems allow that either out of the box, or through 3rd party software
- Unsure what a “dotfile” is, so can’t comment on that
- And Mint is still slowly adding animations to its functions (to some people’s dismay), and I don’t feel lag when alt-tabbing around, so I guess it is snappy too
If I may suggest, start following federated pages too. Each social media has its niche, and now, with federation that allows direct communications, it’s the perfect opportunity to find a social media whose features you like (which you seem to have already gotten), and curate your contents so it’s perfect for you without depending solely on your chosen social media’s niche.
Besides, Windows can be very laggy even on supported hardware.
Looking for a more stable distro could be a good idea. Some distros are pretty much only PoC, or too niche to have a good support, or the beta channel of another, better supported distro.
Dunno how your instance fares regarding moderation, but looking at the modlog of my instance, Kbin Social, moderators seem to act only against disruptive behavior, like spam and gratuitous offenses:
https://kbin.social/modlogAnd I haven’t seem people complaining elsewhere, like on Discord, about Kbin-related instances, unlike certain Lemmy-related instances, so it appears to be fine for now.
I don’t mind necro as long as it isn’t obvious spam, so don’t worry. =D
(besides, Reddit also had a lot of this, where pertinent replies would only appear a long time after the posts were made)But thanks! The game looks pretty interesting, going by the promotional materials, and the store page also mentions it has both English and Japanese, so likely at least texts will be translated.
5·11 months agoBrazil does, but while such a set laws exist, seeing those laws being enforced is a distant dream.
1·11 months agoPerhaps the reasoning changes from person to person, but for me, it goes along the lines of this image posted, oddly enough, on a memes page:

One problem is that you don’t know who’s actually hoarding your data and for what purpose.
Looks like it was around the end of March when Valve announced the date they’d end support for Win7 and Win8. So perhaps a part of the Windows userbase went to Linux. If for fear, as a final push to drop Windows, etc., I don’t know, but perhaps they may have influenced.

Hopefully this tendency keeps going strong!
The majority of posts on Reddit are also like that. Perhaps a curse of a feed-oriented forum (or whatever this type of social media is called)
Just checked. Initial release was in 2016. Maybe I confused it with a previous title from IF/CH.
(Translated copypasta from the Portuguese community, yeah, but since not many English speakers understand Portuguese, worth doing)
Dunno the site, but one thing I do is to go to a site known as “AppSales” and to hide whatever titles I find with MTX with Ublock Origin filters. The process is a chore, but at least, each title needs to be hidden once and only once.
And sure, this is considering that the person uses only Google Play. I, for one, prefer to seek games in stores like Humble Bundle (owned by IGN), Itchio, and so on.
