Problem is, there are fundamental issues with gaming on Linux that keeps it in neverending circle of “not my problem” attitude from game developers.

Proton layer is amazing achievement, but it just makes game devs not give a shit with native Linux games because “someone else” will fix their Windows game to run on Linux anyway. And if there are no native games for it, the market share never actually moves and all other devs just look at it and say “Proton layer will do my job anyway”. And so shit just never moves anywhere. In fact it has regressed. There used to be tons of native Linux games for Unreal Engine and Quake 3 Engine. Not anymore for a very long time now.

Oh no, I thought the THPS 1 and 2 games from 20 years ago or so.

Linux is upon us in %CURRENTYEAR%

Wait, are these like a remaster of the original 1 and 2 games?

I mean, don’t everyone who want to officially transition go through some sort of psychological evaluation anyway?

You’re really not making the case in your favor with this argument. So, now I have to memorize even more dumb commands. What in the fuck? You really have no clue about GUI, do you? Youbdon’t have to memorize ANYTHING, just have general idea in which category of settings to go. And that’s it.

I never got hooked on to more “simulation” NFS games like ProStreet and Shift series except NFS Porsche 2000 which was amazing and I wish EA would just fix the damn thing to run and look nice on modern systems if they can’t make remaster due to licensing. But I have no hopes and no one managed to hack it as fan made patch to this date…

I too have obsession with NFS series, because the concept with cops is just so cool and adds that extra variable in the racing so that each race is different and not just sterile holding the best line which is just so dull and boring.

There were very few other racing games that would draw me in so much as NFS. I can only count few of them through literal decades. Lotus 3, Test Drive 3, Stunts 4D, Screamer 2, Re-Volt, Split/Second and Mercedes World Racing. Test Drive Unlimited was also pretty interesting,but I only used it to just drive around through Hawaii.

All bears to battle stations!

It’s all down to performance for that price and how it will compete with NVIDIA and also itself with RX 7900 series.

BS, I looked online for hours and waited for replies on reddit and no one gave me this line. So, no, I’d in fact do it via GUI in minutes where it took me hours for some backwards config that doesn’t look anything like this that made me do what I wanted. With extra steps to copy that stupid file into system folder, of course via stupid Terminal because I couldn’t do it through file manager in any way. The level of stupid Linux has to configure trivial things is just astounding.

And what’s weird is how Linux purists always whine about it. Like, I don’t care, keep using your stupid Terminal, just give me damn GUI for this basic shit. I don’t want to waste time and memorize idiotic noodles of commands to do trivial shit. No one is taking away any of the stupidity you love, just give ME the choice. Instead the only choice is use of stupid CLI. Ugh.

Also it’s not “unfamiliar” GUI. It’s called practical deduction. If I need to do this and this I already know I might need to look under this and that category in settings or just type rough related words in search and it would show me the setting. If whoever makes GUI isn’t a complete moron, it would be easy to find. Good luck with any of that with CLI where you need to input exact command from start. Your logic just makes no sense.

Calls it stupid take, proceeds to give me most absurd noodle of a commandline for something that could simply be a Enable/Disable button on a device list panel that every idiot with no prior knowledge of Linux, CLI or memorized command could do it. I think proved my point once again.

Bitwarden is excellent and the paid plan is very reasonable unlike with others.

HERE WeGo still has Gulf of Mexico. Use HERE WeGo instead of Google shit.

This is why GUI exists. So you don’t need to memorize idiotic and long commands.

It’s why I’m so furious about Linux in general and how every god damn intent to change almost any setting begins with “open Terminal…”. I don’t want to use the damn Terminal. It’s 2025 now, put the god damn basic ass settings into control panel so I can click it without first spending half an hour to find a long noodle of commands for Terminal that I don’t even understand, paste it in and hope for the best.

Like, I had issues with Bluetooth module in my laptop and I wanted it disabled so my BT USB dongle is main. In Windows I’d just go to Device manager and disable that device. Done. On Linux I spent hours diging on how to disable BT module and weed out all the bullshit on how to disable the function itself because I need it, just not from the fauly module. Then I spent asking on Reddit where someone finally posted a working Terminal command that I had to save into config file using Terminal because file manager is to stupid to save it into system area by just asking me if I want it there or not. I now have a folder with config file and instructions on what stupid ass copy command for Terminal I need to use to copy the config file where it needs to be.

Just so much unnecessary bullshit for something that could be done in literal 5 clicks at worst if the damn option was in GUI to disable single device on the system. Also fun fact, Linux has a “wireless devices” tool, command line one and it uses device ID to apply it and the fucking ID changes every time for the device so you can’t make a permanent setting. I kid you not. I’ve never seen anything more idiotic.
