  • So this is anecdotal I know, but I work on a Mac, so I’ve only ever held on to Windows for gaming. (Sidenote: The Mac isn’t my choice, either, but it has a terminal, and it does the job)

    I’ve definitely tried to go fully Linux in the past, but it was always gaming that killed it for me. Wine was just never very consistent for me in this area.

    Long story but, I recently lost my gaming machine, and was gifted a friends old one. Also a long story, but he ended up putting Linux on it for me. I figured I’d use it as is until payday before buying a key for Windows.

    Holy shit gaming on Linux become has easy! Steam/proton is amazing!

    I won’t lie, it’s not always as simple as install and run, but the tweaking that’s been required has been orders of magnitude simpler than what it used to be. Click a box 90% of the time, Click a box and add a run parameter for another 5%.

    The only games that haven’t worked for me are Starfield and Cyberpunk (accounting for the last 5%.)

    Starfield might just be too much for this old machine, but Cyberpunk I have no idea. Neither are a huge loss to me when Balders Gate, and Elite Dangerous are running fine. Also long standing favourites like Just Cause 3/4 work perfectly too.

    I’m thrilled and a little shocked to say I think I’m finally done with Windows


  • I’m sorry but absolutely not.

    Finding vegan foods is easy, as you’ve pointed out, however eating well as a vegan takes thought and planning. Especially in the beginning.

    This is why so many people fail when they first start. They just cut out everything with animal products, and end up eating bread and salad, and give up when they’re basically malnourished and starving.

    Saying Vegan is not hard is a disservice to anyone seriously considering it. Instead of being condescending about it, give people resources to help them get it right.
