This fat FRICK wants to force Linux down my throat. Can he frick off already?
I think Tim Sweeney was right. I am not fine with Steam using 30% of my money to fund Linux which I will never use because its gay.

Holy shit.

The Linux support is the only redeemable thing about Steam

Funniest thing is Linux never forces you to do anything, not like how windows forces
>bloatware out the ass
>updates and accompanying new bloatware
>auto updates to be on
>driver signature enforcement
>spying on your machine to be manditory
>cortana
>microsoft edge
>linking your microsoft account and therefor forcing online connectivity just to log in to your machine
Need I go on?
bullshit, linux has some moronic things.
>Had PopOS install that I haven't booted up in 4 months
>decided to give it a go again
>everything is fricking broken for no reason
>oh, you have to update the OS, we broke the app store and any software that depends on it don't work anymore heeeheee!
>click on the update button
>doesn't work
>look why it don't work
>oh you had to update 3 months ago, the auto update don't work anymore, now you have to do it manually using the console
>don't have any help on the OS, have to keep googling how to do this shit
>spend like 2 hours doing all the console shit to update
>"now you need to restart"
>when it reboots the whole GUI seems to stopped working, it only has the console now, my password also stopped working for some reason
linux has some moronic shit out of nowhere, if you stop using your computer for 1 week shit breaks for no reason, windows never do this shit, if you boot a computer that has been out of use since 2005 everything will still works.
I stopped using windows BECAUSE I had an event like this. I couldnt get past login without getting a black screen stuck. I tried to restart, refresh, factory reset, nothing would work. I took an iso of win10 and tried to fresh install. When loggin into my m$ account I was told I had broken ToS and would need to contact m$ for further help. Im aware of MS's customer support system, you have to call or email a ticket and they call you whenever they can conviniently get back to you regardless of your schedule(they try and ask what time and day to call you back but will call at a completley different day/time). I once had a guy tell me he was going to check something, hand up (I heard it) mid ticket and never called me back.
works on my machine
Until it doesnt. Tick tock.
Maybe you should learn terminal, cause it works for me.
If anything stops working you just reinstall the OS. That's like half of the solution you see on Mircosoft forms.
I did and my account got disabled for it, which I need the account to function when I log into windows.
Black person, why aren't you using a pirated unlocked version of windows?!
Because Ill still get bloatware, M$ sniffing around my hard drive and system, nah thanks. Its become tiresome.
so you used an old Pop_OS release and was mad when updating wasnt as simple anymore
no you moron, I had an updated version that was inactive for 3-4 months, and it bricked itself the moment I booted up again. This shit makes no sense
Were you dual booting?
yes, why would this make any difference?
HAHAHAHA
because Windows destroyed your system because it thinks its the only thing that is allowed to be on your PC. It takes over your hardware, your bootloader etc.
So, go complain to Microsoft
Oh the irony, a windows problem yet again
no it didn't moron, it was PopOS itself that did this, the updater itself said so you dumbass.
also when you install linux they force you to use their bootloader lol.
nah, dualbooting introduces less obvious problems because as I said, Windows sometimes just takes over your hardware and shit corrupts your Linux system
lol, this is why people hate you linux trannies.
>Windows did this!!!1
every time a problem shows up.
This is bullshit, windows don't do shit outside it's own enviroment, it is actually the opposite, I had to wipe my entire drive years ago because when I uninstalled a dual boot linux installation it bricked the entire boot sector of my drive and I couldn't boot the windows install anymore.
oh so you are just trolling now
nvm
>You are just trolling!1!!!
lol, every time.
How is that so hard to understand? there was nothing wrong, it was just the PopOS devs that went "you should have updated this 3 months ago, now we bricked your OS for no reason other than our convenience"
>Had PopOS install that I haven't booted up in 4 months
>decided to give it a go again
>everything is fricking broken for no reason
You had that in your greentext. You said everything was broken. If you didn't change anything then everything will function as it did prior. If you didn't have an internet connection your OS wouldn't even know it needed an update.
PopOS is the MacOS of Linux
Just use Ubuntu moron
Isn't ubuntu and pop both debian based?
I will just wait for when gaben release SteamOS to go full linux.
>I will just wait for when gaben release SteamOS to go full linux.
there is nothing special about SteamOS you know? Absolutely nothing. If you want same thing, just use x11 Arch KDE and install gamescope and put it on everytime you use Steam
Also only use flatpaks. That is SteamOS
>dude just learn to be a sysadmin and spend 5 hours a day maintaining your system
"no"
stop trolling. If you dont want to install Arch, you can install EndeavourOS and again, just install gamescope and make Steam run in it
There, you have SteamOS but without big picture mode on default
Isn't the whole point that Game Mode is self contained Wayland so you can use it for Gamescope and leave Desktop Mode on x11? Or is that what xwayland is about? I don't get that part.
gamemode is just some CPU optimization which you really dont need. You shouldnt bother with it
Gamescope puts everything in wayland compositor (games do run using xwayland still) and enables some features that way, makes many games work way better (many older games are superior on Linux only because of gamescope).
I assume with Steam Deck its job is to keep the desktop mode separate as well but it makes things more stable when its inside its own compositor
You're both mixing up a gamescope session and gamemode (which is a piece of shit made by feral entertainment)
gamescope is a session thing that is used on Steam Deck by default
Gamemode is a thing not related to it and provides some CPU optimizations that arent really a big deal these days
Deck's Big Picture mode is called Game Mode.
the answer to your question is that Game Mode is running in gamescope to provide easier experience in gaming when its running inside its own compositor
no, it's not
the Steam Deck does not have gamemode installed at all
stop fricking calling the gamescope session game mode, it's wrong
>Deck's Big Picture mode is called Game Mode.
if that is true, then yes, its running inside gamescope
Valve calls it Game Mode, I'm calling it Game Mode. Not gamemode. Stop being pedantic.
>macos
Nevermind the audience not being there at all to the point they dropped it for CS2, Applel is outright hostile towards games.
I don't use Pop. The other anon used Pop and it broke after not booting in for 4 months. Which is likely because of dualbooting problems since nothing else changed presumably.
my bad anon I saw green text and got mad at the idea of a popuser
more like just use Mint
Snaps are moronic, gnome is moronic
Dualbooting is known to call problems. If you don't never boot-up your linux partition, you can't or more specifically it can't frick itself up. So if your partition goes from functioning to broken and it's not a hardware issue then it's probably dualbooting which is known to cause problems.
Windows user here and only an occasional linux user: They're right. Windows thinks it owns the hardware and will frick shit up. I use removable drives and had never had a problem like you're describing if windows wasn't dual booting.
holy shit you guys are moronic.
This is what happened to me https://www reddit com/r/pop_os/comments/g4y42j/cant_update_pop_os/
The morons at Pop changed the address for the repos and the popshop so I couldn't update using the auto updater from the OS and also a lot of apps stopped working because they depended on the popshop, when I tried doing the manual update then something else completely fricked up my GUI.
I think I was the one to be blamed here for using Pop, but even then this moronic shit should never happened in the first place
If the problem was repos why didn't you just update the repos?
The reddit post has comments amouting to
sudo apt-update
>sudo apt-update
funnily enough that would've saved LinusRacemixingTips as well
tbh the only sane way to dualboot is to give windows its own drive and use the bios to select which drive to boot (or have grub chainload the windows drive)
That's really how it works though. If nothing changed on your system than
it'll just work. Everything was broken before the update. You've should rolled back to a previous snapshot if you had one instead of trying to update a broken system. And then after you rollback and shit is functional then you update.
Windows doesn't play nice with other OS's. So yeah.
>if you stop using your computer for 1 week shit breaks for no reason,
>source: I stopped using it for several months
Hmm okay.
Ideally it shouldn't break like that anyway, so why ruin a good point with a blatant lie ("1 week")?
Linus did his "experiment" thing, and Pop released a bugged update on the DAY he installed and fricked everything up for him, so it isn't a blatant lie.
which he obviously did on purpose to show a point or something. He knew what he was doing
Also its very curious how he brought up Pop_OS, distro barely anyone uses that somewhat similar problem and when he gets questioned he just apes out
Got a link to this apeing? Sounds funny
I meant the anon who talked about Pop_OS
Linus himself just insisted that he wasnt doing anything on purpose
Encountering a big caused by an update has nothing to do with the OS breaking as a result of not updating. I'm not interested in defending a distro that I've never used so I have nothing to say to this non-sequitur.
>big
*bug
it was a big bug thoughever
Everything was broken before any updates. The update itself likely wasn't the issue it was whatever happened to the partition before.

But linux is just a pet project for fat high school kids. They use it to organize their wiccan calendars.
Crazy how a "highschool pet project" optimizes better than the multi billion dollar corpo systems and doesnt need to sell your data and snitch on you. Really makes you question corporate wuality standards, eh?
Don't care. Windows just works.™
But it doesn't
Works on my machine.™
>BUTTER BUTTER SLURP
only an Amerimutt would be thinking about high fat foods in a thread about videogames
Imagine being at thumbnails.
options are good
popular options with wide support are better
there is never an instance where these two statements are untrue and attempting to argue the opposite only displays your ineptitude and/or malice
Tim Sweeney is gay and moronic and also a israelite but he's just mad because Gabe is dropping his micro dick all over him.

Unironically what happens when he dies bros. He's the only thing keeping PC gaming based.
>Steam using 30% of my money to fund Linux
I wish. I prefer having to learn using an OS to having to fight with it over my privacy.
>Steam using 30% of my money to fund Linux
Meanwhile, Epic Games Store gives away free games every seven days on Thursday's after 11 AM. Gabe is a greedy fat frick.
is a file for download a free game except you could download from any other website??? what insane mental delusion you are in?
oh wow, I love all those free troony indie dev games!
threadly reminder: a buck for microsoft is a buck for the globohomo
what is it with fat old boomers and linux?
I'm becoming one myself and it's probably because we hate change.
And windows CONSTANTLY does change for the sake of it, often for the worse too.
Nah I hate Linux but I love taking fat Microsoft wieners up my ass which is why I exclusively use Windows
>he doesn't know
don't tell him either. he'll find out eventually one way or another lol
It makes them feel special, like Harleys but for nerds.
Linux is good you troglodyte subhuman
Low IQ scum
>Steam using 30% of my money to fund Linux
god if only anon
Funding Linux is good for you too, fricktard. Unless you think M$ will get into gear without any competition.
>This fat FRICK wants to force Linux down my throat. Can he frick off already?
Don't worry, Microsoft themselves will give you the final push to drop windows soon.

I don't get why OP is crying about Steam and Linux. Never even heard about this. Been using TinyOS 11 and that's it.

I wish. You think ms services like word or excell going exclusive would be a deathnail or the pressure to get consumers to pick windows?
Your average business may still use it because it's moron friendly, but they're not enough to support Microshit the way they do now, as their general public audience shrinks they'll have to increase the license cost for businesses.
>2044
will we even use PCs at that point?
We, as in the people posting ITT? Yes
considering how censored its the internet nowdays i'm not sure
We need to go back to the days when the OS is on a physical chip and cannot be altered or patched in any way.
Never happened, though. EEPROMs were socketed.
We already have this, it is called Consoles, and they suck.
it's because you like to swallow the big and hard linux wiener down your throat,Op.It's fine,don't worry,in time you will learn to appreciate it
better linux than troon developers, OP
will never pay money to ebin games, never ever
how can a man who does so little do so much?
ill force something down your throat if you dont stop making these wank threads m8
>Steam using 30% of my money to fund Linux
I don't even use Linux, but why the frick should I care? This fat frick can use my money to wipe his oversized ass after eating 10 mac chickens for all I care.
OP assumes that you, like him, are schizophrenic and mad about other people not using Bill Gates' OS.
Its been said before but Linux is Gabens insurance policy if Microsoft gets too wienery and stops allowing Steam to run on windows.
I like Steam OS
>waah waah mac os is for babies and hipsters
fat moron should just focus on making games work on macos
who the frick wants to use linux
4 percent of the PC market.
Wow, didn't know there were even more reasons to love this man. Going to be a real shame when being fat as frick kills him and some ~~*goblin*~~ wiggles their way into leadership and destroys all of steam's user friendly attributes
>Steam using 30% of my money to fund Linux

Also, frick SweetBaby.
And frick Commies in general.
Yes lets support the soulless monopoly which is Microsoft. 40 years of dominance and what do you we have?
A shitty pajeet goyslop OS that barely runs with forced trans flags and tons of telemetry. Every modern piece of M$ software is straight up dogshit.
