  I 100% get what you are saying. But I’m also 100% fine with voting with my wallet and not support game developers that want kernel-level access to my machine.

  Think about the EA stuff. You install one of their games, and now Saudi Arabia and Jared Kushner* now have kernel-level access to your machine. Why, why the hell is that worth a game?

  *I wish I was joking

  Should i unplug everything other than the new drive, and have the installer do it automatically?

  This is what I did. Made the installer mostly a bunch of hitting ‘next’.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than ever⁩ ⁨⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  The chart is based on ProtonDB, which covers all Steam games.

  They also bring old games back so they work on modern computers. Like Breath of Fire IV.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GOG asking for more donations from gamers with the new GOG Patrons program⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the way. Let’s them build on existing work and goodwill, while making a solid product people want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GOG asking for more donations from gamers with the new GOG Patrons program⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I can confirm Heroic works well on Linux. Just finished up my Silksong play-through this week. :)

  He did make a new, expanded version about two years ago. I’m probably going to give the mod a go. :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Halo: Campaign Evolved | The Silent Cartographer Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They already made this remake. You can buy it on Steam for $10

  Absolutely.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨$1,000 for a ROG Xbox Ally X? Oh yeah, that was Asus' idea, says Microsoft exec⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, you didn’t have to put the Xbox name on a $1,000 device that doesn’t even play Xbox games…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PS6 and next Xbox console are both aiming for 2027 release, separate reports claim | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The best situation for consumers is for games to come out on as many platforms as possible. Exclusives are cancer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"I’m Canceling My Subscription": Xbox Players Call to "Boycott" Game Pass "Hard" Over 50% Price Increase As Microsoft’s Website Crashes from Mass Cancellations⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Paying extra just to have access to multiplayer is one of the core reasons I sold my 360 and haven’t bought a console since. PS2 and latest PC are both golden!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why can't a PC-laptop boot without datetime?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The BIOS on that is clearly a bit odd, I haven’t seen that as a requirement before. That said, the BIOS battery is probably dead. Replace that and it should fix the issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I stop sleeping through everything?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You are having a pretty big issue here. Don’t try, do. You can wean yourself in just a few days. Or cold turkey if you don’t think you can keep to a weaning schedule.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  After having lived though many of these. Just turn off the news for a few weeks. You probably won’t even notice when it comes back without someone telling you.

  $3,800 and you fully own your 2.25 acres. That shit won’t take long to pay off. Now, you actually own more than the hunter/gatherer did!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is exploited⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  OP shouldn’t be doing 1h of unpaid overtime every day. Just simply don’t do it. Get a new job if necessary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is exploited⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you own/use as much as a hunter-gather owned/used, you also wouldn’t need to work very much.

  Take away the fridge, tv, computer, phone, car, hvac, stove, microwave, water, electricity, gas, 95% of the house, going out to eat, etc. You are not left with many expenses. You can live that way, it doesn’t require much working to maintain that lifestyle.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proof of wormholes⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nothing but to agree.

  Cancer existed before cigarettes. Therefore "anyone trying to tell you that cigarettes cause cancer is entirely full of crap”.

  But we are way past the point of facts.

  Clearly, since this ‘meme’ is using some real bad arguments to try to prove facts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proof of wormholes⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, it just makes you look dumb for refuting a false statement with another bad argument.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proof of wormholes⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The logic of the ‘meme’ is faulty. Something being identified before something else does not mean the second thing cannot create the first.

  Cancer existed before cigarettes, yet cigarettes still cause cancer. Using this ‘meme’s’ logic, “anyone trying to tell you that cigarettes cause cancers is entirely full of crap”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenAI admits AI hallucinations are mathematically inevitable, not just engineering flaws⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A hallucination is something that disagrees with your active inputs (ears, eyes, etc). AIs don’t have these active inputs, all they have is the human equivalent of memories. Everything they draw up is a hallucination, literally all of it. It’s simply coincidence the hallucination matches reality.

  Is it really surprising that the thing that can only create hallucinations is often wrong? That the thing that can only create hallucinations will continue to be wrong on a regular basis?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft starts rolling out Gaming Copilot on Windows 11 PCs⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But, why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hell Is Us lead says Silksong's short notice release date was "a little callous," even if he's happy they didn't delay it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The alternative is to release a date early, have everyone shift around your schedule, find out it’s not done, delay it, have everyone shift around your schedule again, find out it’s still not done, have everyone shift around your schedule YET AGAIN, etc, etc.

  Naw, release games when they are done. Silksong did it right.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Far Cry series will push multiplayer "more predominantly" going forwards, according to Ubisoft boss⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, wut? The entire point of the Far Cry series is the single player.

  Though it has been clear for awhile the single player experience in Far Cry games has been going downhill. With this announcement, any shred of worth in the series is clearly in the past.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft waives fees for Windows devs publishing to Microsoft Store⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They are 15-years too late to try to get people on their store.

  I remember when it first came out, you couldn’t even put normal programs on it. Only the new Metro apps…that flopped. Ah, how I had hoped at the time it would be like Linux’s repos, a one-stop-shop to update everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gamers Nexus's GPU smuggling documentary is finally back up after being fraudulently DMCA'd by Bloomberg. Go give them a watch to make up for some of the lost traction!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a re-upload by a third party. Which is perfectly acceptable, but do note it’s not back up on Gamer’s Nexus’ page.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are fossil fuels vegan?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If ’ you mean carbon dioxide, then I hate to tell you, but you make that as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are fossil fuels vegan?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  • Coal is made from plants.

  • Oil is made from plankton and algae.

  • Natural gas is made from microorganisms.

  I believe all three have a small chance of also being made from an animal. But I wasn’t able to verify that part.
