  1. She will have her laugh as well. Her Cackles. Holy crap her laugh. She didn't't have the skill. He looked like a deer with their eyes in bright headlights anytime she was asked any serious question. Her debates was redundant and often times irrelevant. The longer she went, the worse she did. The only thing her campaign did was make those that didn't doubt the previous election start to doubt the previous election and wonder where all those votes for Biden came from. Some locations had more votes last election than they had people. How did that happen The Democrats stated that the Republicans were running fradulant elections. However, this time they were very strict. Kicked out thousands of illegal people allowed to vote. Dead people, people that weren't citizens and people that didn't even live there People that didn't have any right to vote. Then they reported the results. showing last vs now. with total people and several of the Democratic places had total less voters and lost to the Republicans. Some state they were removing the Democrats or others illegally. However, that is a serious charge. That never was proven. A Lie There isn't anyone in the Democratic membership that has any quality or IMO ability to run against even a lower rung Republican. Much less soeone with some experience and abilty. They will loose as it is now. They will loose badly.
  2. With a Bethesda game you NEED to do this. It is so unstable. Save Scumming is required!
  3. This just further validates my move to Linux that I have been working on for the past couple of years. Unfortunately I will still need a Window system for my gaming even with all the advancement in Bazzite OS and or all the tools to play Windows games it still is something I need even if it is only for games I like to mod (the tools are Windows based and I want to be 100% sure if it is my screw-up and not wonder if it is some glitch with the emulation etc. This, as well as online games that have no Linux equivalent. Of which there are a lot. I have been trying out software and growing my library of tools and software and commands for Linux making it even more enjoyable to use Linux as well as more efficient to do so.
  4. I meant that it should be free. Not paid. AS for Linux, There is no excuse not to start. You can use: 1. VM. Safe and effective. Need some added ram, but not as much as if you ran a Windows OS. 2. Dual boot (ideally with a second drive. Windows can fuck up the bootloader and make you have troubles) 3. Install Linux and then use Windows in a VM and "pass-through" the hardware such as graphics card, SSD hard drive, sound etc. 4. Dedicated Linux machine and dedicated windows (in this case gaming ) machine. Hardware to run most Linux is cheap. You don't need a lot. If you have an old Windows 10 machine, chances are it is plenty powerful enough to run most Linux OSs. 1. The first step is great for a noob. You can't screw up things badly. Worst case, delete the VM and reinstall it. If you have snapshots enabled. You can restore to the previous snapshot. 2. Is great for someone that is able and enjoys using Linux every day while still having full power when desired for either operating system. Drawback, you have to reboot the machine to get access to the other OS. Great if you only use Windows for gaming. When you finish your work and such on Linux, reboot to Windoze and have a fun time playing a game. Boot back to Linux to do more work. A second drive is easier to set up. Follow the many YouTube tutorials regarding this. This is great for someone that is more comfortable with Linux 3. You can install Linux in a powerful main machine and then install Windoze of your choice (or multiple ones) in a VM and pass-through the hardware needed to play the games. Graphics card, hard drive, sound etc. Then you can use both. Most VM have snapshots so you can create a snapshot and when something is done by Microsoft that borks the OS you can restore. NO need to image the OS or other crap. 4. This is for more power users. People that want 100% of the power for every second. "I h ave the power" as He Man states. This is two separate machines which one is pure Windows and the other is Pure Linux. This is also good as you will be able to keep everything 100% separate with no doubts (unless you share a central folder and access it from both machines. A "server" which is a different conversation which isn't covered here. TL;DR Install a Linux on your main machine in a VM to start. Get started and used to the way Linux does things. Commands etc. Then you can move later when you are more comfortable. I have a Linux, Chromebook, Windows gaming machine, Mac, (outdated not supported working on it likely will have Linux with KDE and GUI that looks like Mac .. Why? Because Why not? lol. Finally, a second Windows 11 machine so I can use it for some BS I don't want to do on my Gaming Machine. Each tool has its own purpose. Chromebook = Google ecosystem, Linux, main work including moderation and gaming sites., Windows gaming. = Duh, Windows gaming, Mac, = experimentation perhaps force an update to current Mac Os or Linux. A project machine, finally Windows 11 laptop. = for various bullshit that I don't care about but need Windows for. Shareware (questionable software etc.) Every one of thes machines besides the Windows 11 gaming machine was less than 200 dollars. One of them was less than 40 dollars to buy. YOu can get simple usable hardware to start linux (when you are ready) No reason to not do it.
  5. Honestly I hope that is the case. I hope that they start creating decent, reasonable games going forward and we can look at the past several years as the past. nightmare, it was never to happen again.
  6. Bazzite is cool as the experts set up a gaming Linux for you. You don't need to do much if anything to get it going. The downside is the instructions you might see for Linux won't work for it as it is an immutable OS. There are some extra hoops you need to jump through to get something that requires more access than a Flatpak can. (Sandboxed program. Same as Snaps found on Ubuntu as far as sandboxing goes. Different direction and implementation, but for the user it is basically the same) You want to download something and have it have all the gaming tools you want. The gaming tools that are stable and available set up to be as stable as humanly possible. Bazzite has it. It also protects the OS from being harmed. It is an "Image" which means if you have something not work or something isn't comparable, you can reboot into the previous image that worked and get back to work or play. Some say Immutable OS's (Linux) are the wave of the future. Since you are going to be some time before pulling the trigger, check that out. You can also possibly depend on your setup. Install another drive and run Linux on it and still have your windows available (dual boot)
  7. Bethesda? What company is that? LOL. It sure the F**K isn't the company that created the classics they rely on so much these days.
  8. There are alot of great demos that come out. Then when they release the game it is ass. They made so many changes that it isn't anything like the demo. This is the most stupid thing IMO. You have people that love the demo and like what you are saying then change it? I hope this isn't the case with this game. I wasn't so thrilled with Rage I but it was a competent game. I can't remember any major problems or issues.
  9. Yes, please do. You can always run a Windows VM in Linux for some simple stuff if you needed it. (NOt sure what a LTSC variety is) In some cases and setups and hardware etc. you can even pass through a graphics card to the Linux Host and play full windows game if that is needed. There are lots of things to do. However it does get a bit complex when you start to do these things. You can try Bazzite https://bazzite.gg/ It is an inmmutable OS meaning you can't bork your install. It uses flatpacks to keep things pretty much sandboxed. It has all the tools and toys for gaming. Unfortunatly the main thing that happens is you can't play online windows games with LInux. Not becuase it can't be done but becuase the producers of the anticheat and such tools don't make a linux version. Chime back here with what you ended up with. If you are stlil afraid you can run linux inside a windows OS to get your feet wet. You can also install mutiple Linux distros to see how you like it. Like Cinimom GUI or KDE? you can find that out without commitment. Well full committment of a install on your machine. VMs also often have snapshots!
  10. Nice idea. However, I would suggest something other than a mask. This is because it would obscure the face of the player character. Equipping it would stop them from seeing their character's face, which many players might feel a great connection to. I'd suggest a necklace or something that would be used instead. It is still visible so you can create a pendant that shows something desirable but wouldn't block the face. https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Amulets_(Skyrim)
  11. for those that might want to start to learn without an added computer to test on.
  12. OH, nice. MIght have to do this myself. One of my machines (currently with 11 laptop) has an ability to run a second drive. I can also do that if / when I get comfortable with my gaming machine. I did that a long time ago. (remove the drive) However, didn't have a boot option. I had to use the bios to do it. A pain in the but. It worked however didn't mess things up.
  13. Some information since Windows 10 has been discontinued. I suggest Linux Mint first if you want to get into Linux. I suggest Silverblue or one of the options they offer (Red Hat ) for unmutable OS. Reason for the Silverblue is you can't mess up the OS as you learn. However, not good for someone that want's to learn Linux as you have to jump through hoops to do work that Linux people take for granted.
  14. Try Ventoy @Doublezero I suggest it as you likely have mutiple OS's that you are using between various computers. This allows the ISO to be installed into a partition and selected when you boot the USB. Rufus is aweseme but it can only work one OS at a time. Meaning you need mutiple USB drives to have all your OS's. I used Ventoy and created two larger USB drives and have a copy of the OS's on both. If something happens to one I have a spare without the need to download the OS again. I can also have older OS's ready. Since it is still an ISO I can transfer it to a drive and make it a VM. (I assume I can just access the drive partition and do it directly but haven't done it yet. Having some problems with VM (on my windoze machine) and my Linux machines aren't really strong enough to do much on a virutal machine.
  15. My entire LInux laptop FEELS FASTER. This is even on a old Windoze 10 machine that wouldn't qualify for even the minimum of Windoze 11
