schestowitz                                    <blockquote>Oct 15 10:27
schestowitz                                        <p>I must start this article with a quick explanation. Last year, I vowed to move away from Windows for good. I am tired of being part of this giant ad-fed low-IQ business. Therefore, I will need to use Linux 100% of the time, but this ain't an easy task. I'm a gamer. So how good is Linux for games? Well. </p>Oct 15 10:27
schestowitz                                        <p> Over the past seventeen years of Dedoimedo, I've reviewed hundreds of Linux games, wrote extensively about Steam, Proton, and then some. In my last Proton review, things were kind of meh. But then, I got myself the Titan laptop, and started using Proton in earnest. And title after title, it would handle all of my challenges without any problem. I think I need to share my enthusiasm, and my resOct 15 10:27
schestowitzults with you, so you know that if you're also seeking an "escape" from Windows, and mulling serious gaming on Linux, then that reality is happening, right now. After me.</p>Oct 15 10:27

schestowitz                                                <p>Jordan Petridis' two merge requests in the GNOME's source code in Gitlab are the most definite signs yet that GNOME is getting close to dropping support for running on what its developers consider the legacy X11 display server.

schestowitz                                    <blockquote>Oct 15 11:00
schestowitz                                        <p>We covered some of what's new in this version when we looked at the new full-disk encryption and file system support in September, followed by checking out the beta version later that month. It comes with kernel 6.5.0-9, and experimental support for installing onto ZFS returns thanks to OpenZFS 2.2.0-rc3. </p>Oct 15 11:00
schestowitz                                        <p> If you have a UEFI PC with a TPM 2 chip, you can opt for the new self-unlocking full-disk encryption system – albeit with some restrictions. This needs a snap-packaged kernel, and that doesn't include as many driver modules, so for example it can't handle NVMe RAID.</p>Oct 15 11:00
