  • It’s been drop dead easy for me too in the past few years. Almost all of my gaming is through Steam and the Proton mode is like, a few extra clicks. It’s gotten to the point that I don’t even need to consult ProtonDB for runtime options now.

    For old games there’s Lutris and its install scripts are a fuckton easier than trying to manually wrangle shit together (no matter what OS you’re on) which is even better

    In fact, my completely non technical (and, notably, non programmer) friend noticed what my experience is like and as a result decided to dual boot on his new gaming rig. Mind blown. I didn’t even do any evangelising or shilling, I guess the best evangelism is just practicing what you (would) preach

    I think dual GPU situations like laptops are sometimes a bit of a pain in the ass though from what I read.

    I’m using a GTX 1080 Ti and nvidia’s legendary fuckery hasn’t impacted me














  • Ahh, woah, I never thought about the huge address space would affect network scans and such.

    With NAT on IPv4 I set up port forwarding at my router. Where would I set up the IPv6 equivalent?

    I guess assumptions I have at the moment are that my router is a designated appliance for networking concerns and doing all the config there makes sense, and secondly any client device to be possibly misconfigured. Or worse, it was properly configured by me but then the OS vendor pushed an update and now it’s misconfigured again.
