How do I turn off the advertising for @MicrosoftEdge@twitter.com on my PC lock screen? I paid for a full license, not a "with ads" reduced rate version. #Windows #MicrosoftEdge

@Bradley_JF Oh thats easy... install linux.
I am not a huge gamer either. But I do have 4 of the most powerful water cooled graphics card they make which I use for Data crunching (OpenCL). So with such powerful graphics cards I feel obligated to abuse them on games from time to time just see see it push 120 GPS at maxed out graphics settings :)
@freemo @dhfir I tried gaming on Linux a few months ago. I found that I was spending more time figuring out which games would install and how to get them to work correctly than I was playing them.
I don't really have a lot of time for video games anymore so I don't want to waste the time I do have on troubleshooting. I'm sure that eventually everything will just work but we're not quite there yet.
Strange, every single game i tried Just Worked (tm).. I just installed it (already had proton and everything needed for games configured and installed)... then when i ran it it worked. Never had to tinker to get any games working before.
For single player popular games, it almost always works. For popular multiplayer games, they have anti-cheat that never works with it. For single player niche games, it usually takes a little while to tweak.
I have used a few major online games like EVE, and Final Fantasy MMO and a few others. They all worked for me so far.
@ahhhhhhoniichan @dhfir @freemo EAC was the issue I had. I mostly play MMOs. I think I was trying to play Destiny 2 at the time.
Indeed it doesnt. But my point is, its doable with minimal effort if done right. Steam, as was pointed out, usually makes it effortless.
I use ArchLinux
Steam put a lot of work into making it work.
Tho again, I mostly stick to df now.
