    Why does Sony always feel like you could replace anything they say with “You should consider yourself lucky we allow you to play our games.”

    It was a minor annoyance at worst. But it was annoying in that it revealed the clear enshitification occurring. You should put a disc in and the game should work. That’s video game history.

    operational issue

    Why be so vague? That’s only ever going to frustrate people.

    I canceled my subscription last week, just before it was time to renew.

    I’m going back to PC gaming full time. If in time everything is coming to PC anyway, I rather wait and have it all on one system with a Nintendo system next to it.

    PS4 was when I switched to PC for a majority of my games except exclusives. I refused to pay for PS+ to play online, since I enjoyed my free online on the PS3 the past Gen.

    Picked up a long hdmi cable back then so I could enjoy the couch gaming experience when I felt like it. So that stopped being a selling point for consoles for my use case.

        I want to swap my alienware aurora to linux but I’m struggling to find a distro that I know will be compatible with my hardware. Is there a list for bazzite driver support? I’m sure all my hardware will work in most linux distros geared toward gaming but it’d be nice to have some assurance beforehand.

          Just a suggestion: try installing on a spare drive first, and disconnect the original ones

          Easiest way would be to either dual boot with a test partition, or if you have a spare SSD, just replace the current SSD with the spare and install Linux on that.

            Using an old spare as a test is a good idea.

            And to think, my wife mocks my hoard of old parts, cables, adapters, etc. Who’s laughing now? It matters not that it grows at an inverse rate at which it is depleted…I did say hoard, did I not?

            Yeah…ok, so try it with a spare. Sounds good.

          Only thing that is iffy usually is Nvidia. A big caveat is that Bazzite doesn’t support Nvidia for now. Agree with the other commenter, put it on another partition and try it out
