Oh yeah that could be a whole different thread on here. I use Windows and Linux, I would love it if I could rid myself of Windows completely but Linux is not there, and I kinda doubt it will even be a total replacement for Windows. It’s worth remembering Windows didn’t become the monolith that it is for no reason, people wanted 1 application that could easily do… Well everything without needing a lot of manual fine-tuning. That ain’t Linux.
windows became a monolith because of sabotage. and then! the network effect. microsoft is actively trying to sabotage linux, and they’ve got internal documents stating that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween_documents (the actual link is not loading)
microsoft doing monopolistic anticompetitive FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) practices dates back at least to 1992: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AARD_code (yeah... i found out about this from a youtube video.....)
and when was clippit (colloquially, clippy) introduced? <drumroll>… 1996. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Office_97)
thus, using a clippy pfp is stupid. q.e.d.
i don’t even PC game anymore because it’s just not worth the headache. i also work on a PCs all day at work, so I want to sit on my couch to play games and not sit in front of a monitor for more hours of the day.
And the reply is always ‘you are a retard then’. Yes, clearly, I am.
Right, that’s why when I tried to play fallout last year it kept crashing and crashing and throwing errors and fucking up, and i had to download custom drivers and edit files to get it to be somewhat more stable.
but when i bought it on my playstation 5 it didn’t do that.
weird how that works. also did similar stuff when I tried to replay xcom. so i just gave up. or how i have to give my nephews tech support every other month for their gaming pcs where games won’t load or play or frequently crash.
but please tell me how I’m wrong and pc gaming is perfect and wonderful and clearly I’m an idiot if I have a bad experience with games not working.

There’s no headache with PC gaming, this isn’t the 90s. You can plug a computer into a tv and use a controller.

To be fair Fallout is a special stupid idiot that doesn’t work on PC smoothly no matter what.
and i never bought into the pc gaming masterrace nonsense.
