Masto Re-Introduction

I'm a Linux Administrator and DevOps Engineer, foss & self-host enthusiast, linux gamer, BSD weirdo, and producer of electronic music. Also have an interest learning more about philosophy, left-wing anarchism/syndicalism/mutualism and decentralized systems (outside of crypto context).

Looking to connect with anyone who regularly posts about or engages in those types of interests.

🦾 GeForce NOW Releases Native Linux App Beta, Now Available for Download

｢ Because the heavy lifting happens remotely, local hardware requirements are minimal. Games are rendered on RTX-class GPUs in NVIDIA’s data centers, with features such as ray tracing and DLSS 4 handled entirely in the cloud ｣

It really is wild that the primary claim to fame for the Windows OS outside the world of "enterprisey" was that it was THE gaming OS. When people say a game is out "for PC" they mean out for Windows.

And yet…

#Linux is now a better gaming OS in many cases. Linux! Even with a translation layer!

#Microslop has allowed every other OS vendor to kick them in the gonads. Like I said, it's WILD.

I'm not really a gamer, but all can say is: Go #LinuxGaming !!

I have put together a short video that might help you switch from Windows to Linux as a game developer.

Check it out and send it to fellow gamedevs!

I'm not a youtuber so I hope I'm making sense here. Let me know if you have any questions or need help! Cheers!

Fun story time!

Back when I worked at GOG (over 8 years ago) as their Linux gaming expert the company hired a highly qualified Linux engineer for the GOG Galaxy team. As far as I know the poor fellow never got to do anything Linux-related in his job. Still, he was a fun friend to talk Linux with.

There were a couple of us Linux gamers back then at GOG. Unfortunately not among the decision makers 🙂.
