People confuse you for skinhead.

Lose wig.

This is absurd. Where's the step to grow a beard and become a hobbit?

As a windows main but steam deck user, can confirm Linux being confusing.

Fucking wine prefixes.

To be fair, it's just because windows is the most used and common desktop operating system and the two OSs are different. People would be confused about windows too if the tables were turned.

What's confusing about wine prefixes apart from the fact that wine itself doesn't come with a graphical interface to manage them? On a Deck, Steam should handle these for you

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Calling them "prefixes" is about the total of the confusion. Call them "instances" or even just "boxes" and it's suddenly clear what they do.

(The only reason I'm not using "sandbox" is because they don't really provide sandboxing from a security point of view, only a kind of separate instance with its own configuration but with access to everything via the Z drive)

Once you figure out that using a different "wine prefix" only really means a separate "Windows" with it's own config and file structure there's nothing confusing about it.

PS5 pro is a waste of money, but also lots of people don't want a PC to play games. Two things can be true at the same time!

Or if you want something more turnkey, a Steam Deck. Want more flexibility? Put Bazzite on it.

[-] Eeyore_Syndrome@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Been building since 2003.

On Linux since 2018. Currently on Bazzite.

On meh 7950x X Sapphire Nitro+ 7900XTX and NVME 4.0 drive. 240hz 4k on Display Port.

Who would wanna play on cruddy console hardware lol. Based. Ironically I use a DualSense Edge.

Also have an OG and OLED Steam Deck.

I am spoiled by living near a Micro Center.

Tho the 9800X3D may launch as soon as next month for people wanting to wait.
