Even though it’s typically associated with KDE and Linux, it’s also available on Windows. Good for people who haven’t made up their mind yet. It’s a great text editor with a feature-set similar to other advanced notepads.
I’ll be real though, if I hadn’t jumped ship 3 years ago, I’d be cutting my losses with Windows here.
Not really. Most recommend Framework because their laptops are open to the point where third parties can make random peripherals that fit the expansion ports. They have a page to help with choosing a distro for their hardware as well. It’s great to see this level of open-ness and repairability in a laptop. Naturally, Linux users gravitate to such a brand.
System76 leverage their own distro, Pop!_OS as a selling point for their laptops, as they have some degree of control over the hardware and software.
The other maker I’d recommend is Tuxedo Computers who also maintain their own distro for hardware they sell.
I’m running full AMD on a desktop, I don’t foresee any problems here. Hopefully your advice helps someone though!
Makes sense to me. I’m a Pop! user since 22.04 and the wait is painful, although the blog posts definitely help a bit. Currently I have no problems but if something breaks I’ll try out Nobara I guess. My /home is already partitioned so I can make that hop with minimal loss.
Looking at SteamDB, it looks like it checks VC2015 is installed. So you’ll want to check if your bottle has at least one of: vcrun2015, vcrun2017, vcrun2019 or vcrun2022. It’s pretty likely that’s a required dependancy.
It also installs “DirectX Jun 2010 Redist” which installs or updates a bunch of libraries, I think most if not all of these can be installed to your bottle too. I don’t know which are required but it’s a place to start.
Important to note those in-game purchases Fubarberry mentioned are critical to the game’s future, yet it’s still possible to play without opening the wallet. It’s rare that a game which is funded by MTX doesn’t constantly tell you how much you’re missing out on by not buying stuff.
The catch is that selling to other players is a hassle without the premium stash tab and IMO, PoE1’s default 4 stash tabs is simply not enough beyond act 10. If you only play the “Solo Self-Found” mode, it doesn’t matter too much since you only pick up stuff for yourself.
It is very easy to fill up with currency, gems, essences, maps, league mechanic stuff, levelling uniques as well as the usual stuff you pick up while levelling like belts and rings.
I say, if you end up enjoying the game enough to open your wallet, $30 is enough to fully enjoy the game, and your purchased stash tabs carry over between leagues, and between games where possible.
It’s also nice to know that the people getting all those “firsts” in chat at the start of a league aren’t hacking in items, as in Diablo 3 console edition.
