    Exactly! Tower Defence, MOBA, and all the other games built out of the RTS engine in custom maps replaced it, and this all happened years before Zoomers were even walking much less playing advanced video games.

    Blaming the RTS genre dying on zoomers would be like blaming them for killing 90s rap, they had nothing to do with it and it’s downright ludicrous to suggest.

    Yeah I am gonna be honest, I am pretty much over this “trend” thing, the quality of memes has gone downhill. I’d prefer less memes of better quality than logging into Risa and having to figure out why some random side character is suddenly the punchline to every joke.

    Hell even my friend that doesn’t visit the site but I link them choice memes was immediately bored of the trends, and they only saw a small segment of what I felt were the best ones, and they’re the biggest Star Trek fan I know.



  • Look, this is gonna sound rude and maybe it is, but I am not a fucking moron and I know that’s how it works. I specifically stated that I have used linux in the past, and I can easily google any specific game and find out if it does or doesn’t work.

    I was asking what distro is best for people to give current opinions on the subject, not because I cannot google very basic cut and dry info. I appreciate that you are trying to help but I am not about to sit here for hours typing the name of every game I might be interested in playing, so that someone else can read it and check it for me, were you about to spend your entire night checking games I listed for me? Of course you weren’t, and the entire idea of either of us doing that is insane.

    With all due respect, if you have any opinion on which distro is currently the best for gaming feel free to share it, don’t waste both our times with useless basic linux info that I already knew about.



  • Literally why are you even here? I am not interested in your bullshit, I am done with windows, and I don’t understand why the fuck you seem to feel the need to argue with me and disrespect me. Microsoft doesn’t care about any petition, linux works fine for every game I play, and you are being an aggressive douche to me in your Microsoft dick sucking fanboyism.

    Go find a better hobby, you should be blocked from this sub for being such a troll.

    Uh… you know he was a Canadian right?

    James Montgomery Doohan (/ˈduːən/; March 3, 1920 – July 20, 2005) was a Canadian actor and author, best known for his role as Montgomery “Scotty” Scott in the television and film series Star Trek. Doohan’s characterization of the Scottish chief engineer of the Starship Enterprise was one of the most recognizable elements in the Star Trek franchise, and inspired many fans to pursue careers in engineering and other technical fields.[1] He also made contributions behind the scenes, such as the initial development of the Klingon and Vulcan languages. Prior to his acting career, Doohan served in the 14th Field Artillery Regiment of the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division.



  • Yeah, I’ve tried, and it doesn’t help. Also that does nothing for the fact that they are going to stop supporting Win10 sooner than later, and since my computer won’t run Win11 that means losing all security. Not to mention the microsoft using my data for nefarious reasons, constantly adding new bloatware garbage, and harvesting my data to use to train their AI.

    I am done with windows, I am done with microsoft, and why am I having to explain my reasons and motivations for this in the Linux lemmy of all places? Do you work for microsoft or something???

    More likely you surround yourself with petty people who complain about minor things, and chronically online trolls who think their le epic memes are reality. Can you imagine complaining about what other people eat? What does it matter to you, how egotistical are you that you want to complain that other people eat pineapple on pizza, what a childish thing to do.

    Also bonus points for hypocritically saying my experience can’t be real, while yours is objective reality. No, you are just from a region or social group that has abandoned civility and politeness, and cannot possibly fathom anyone disagreeing with them without being rude and condescending to them.

    Blocked, go kick rocks kid.

    My entire life I have met hundreds of people that don’t mind pineapple pizza, I have been to dozens of school, work, and social functions where there was pineapple pizza, and nobody has ever complained. Literally decades of people eating it without complaining, or not eating it but also not complaining.

    I never heard a single human being mention it until it became an internet meme, and the only people that have ever mentioned it IRL were chronically online individuals.

    But sure it’s me not knowing enough people, what a fucking rude and condescending thing to say.
