I’m too scared of fucking up the set up by accident and also terminals are scary to me 😔
As an architect, let me know once Linux supports autodesk products and adobe products. Until then I gotta stick with windows.
I have the strong urge to point out it’s the other way around; Adobe and Autodesk have to support Linux. You’re of course right though, with the strong lock-in effect from those big companies it’s almost impossible to switch unless done on company-level. And even then project partners will expect files to be in a specific (proprietary) format most of the time.
It was really disheartening to see Ondsel ES fail, it was a valiant attempt at creating a business-grade Open-Source CAD solution based on FreeCAD. Unfortunately Autodesk’s monopoly extinguished any attempt at finding funding, despite existing interest by those who actually use that stuff (I assume Autodesk is fucking expensive like any monopoly software…). Education, Production, Distribution… those few big companies own and control literally every part. It would probably take both governmental effort as well as some kind of soft UI-standardisation to crack these power structures.
Autodesk I understand but the adobe suite sucks major donkey balls anyway
Unfairly, It doesn’t matter if they suck or not, they have a monopoly. They are the industry standard and in many ways our hands are tied.
shitty anticheat protected games where the dev has specifically chose to block linux?
Linux is a reason to ditch those games
apex legends ditchers represent.
Video games.
video games work pretty well in general
It’s TruckersMP for me because it’s built on .NET libraries and I can’t get truckersmp-cli to load my DLCs for whatever reason :|
Wait, there’s something scrawled on the corner down here in crayon…
i’m lazy
Fusion 360
Cubase
hdr and mod organiser 2
HDR works fine with Plasma (KDE). Regarding MO2, do you think the Nexus Mods app could eventually replace it? They work on a native client that already supports a few games.
I’ve no clue I’m hoping on nma but it still only supports 2 games after all this time and both nmm and vortex were absolutely god awful if vortex worked it’d be fine as that works on Linux apparently but mo2 has a third party wine installer script that kinda works but fomod installers don’t work so it doesn’t really work it’s kinda useless but yeah I’ll just have to wait and see on nma
Tax perp software was the only thing I needed it for in the last year. I haven’t converted my gaming PC to Linux yet, but I don’t anticipate an issue.
Literally just steam VR in home streaming is all I need to fully dump windows.
WiVRn / ALVR?
I need to connect to my work machine with RDP and I tried using Remmina. Sometimes it works fine, but sometimes the special key stop working( ctrls + s will type s instead of saving) Also there are visual glitches on a second monitor. I had to switch back to windows.
Can anyone recommend a different RDP client?
@Rusty @Kory Usually i using http://www.rdesktop.org/, but it is not actively developed now
I’ll try it, thanks.
Msm flash tool, I need windows for this
Msm flash tool
If that’s all you need. I bet you could just run it from WINE. I updated my PS5 controller using the PlayStation flash tool or whatever it’s called. I used Bottles to do all the WINE stuff. Just installed the flash tool and it worked like it was Windows. Pretty shocked if I’m being honest.
I’ve to do usb passthrough to use msm tool, but I’ll try since you said it worked for u.
With WINE you wouldn’t need USB pass-through. Only if you are passing the hardware into a Virtual Machine. The pass-through just tells the Host system not handle the device. But you actually want the HOST system to handle the device. WINE is just translation, not virtualization. (or Emulation, haha)
P.S. USB pass-through does work really well in VM’s. If WINE doesn’t work for you. You could always keep around a Windows VM for the occasion you need the msm flash tool.
Bruh I tried that now my phones isn’t turning on anymore fuck
You have a OnePlus device? You can go to EDL mode to unbrick.
Yeah I know I was in edl mode and device wasn’t getting recognized even after installing all the drivers, but my phone wasn’t responding so I’ve to force shut it off.
My only real reason is the amount of stuff I’d have to move over
Only thing are my files, that are pretty tricky to transfer securely while maintaining compatibility (i dualboot)
Lmao stealing this
Indeed it is brother… indeed it is.
