I'm still sticking with IRC.

You'll all be back... Some day

And non halal food

Apparently that good sound is due to extensive software processing. The asahi devs really want to make a good impression, so they're spending a lot of time tweaking their sound processing to try to match or beat the MacOS quality before release. Which is both good and annoying. I appreciate the attention to detail, but it would be nice to have any speaker support when I just need to hear something quickly.

The graphics drivers are still in active development, but they have OpenGL3.1 support. Vulkan is under development.

I haven't tried games, but have seen some posts where users have them working. I don't think many games are compiled for arm yet though. The graphics dev did a youtube stream back in march where she plays steam games using FEX-Emu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJSfFzsU75g

They also said it was mandatory for all the students and teachers to use the stupid 2FA Microsoft app on our phone, but I’ve been using Keepass on desktop without problems (and even shown it to some students).

Yeah if they're just using the MS app for OTP generation, there's no reason to use that specific application. Keepass is perfectly fine.

Asahi is pretty great. Only issue for me personally is the lack of speaker support. Audio works fine through headphone jack or bluetooth though.

I always perfer FOSS whenever possible.

I figure if someone out there is working on a project and wants me to use it, I owe it to them to at least give it a shot.

Occasionally, the proprietary stuff is the only option. And occasionally-occasionally that company isn't worth supporting or the price is unreasonable or more than I could afford. In which case, perhaps some seas are sailed.

I was doing the same thing, but it’s a whole new world out there because of Proton.

Yep. I've been on linux for 20 years now, and haven't done much PC gaming for that reason, buying consoles instead. A bit of KSP and C:S and other native Linux games, but that's about it.

Recently got a steamdeck and was like holy shit, almost everything works well now without tweaks.

Went out and bought a GPU for my desktop last week. I'm ready for this era.

At least Skyblivion is getting closer. 2024 or 2025.

It's not official, but I never played Oblivion, so I have high hopes for experiencing it re-imagined in a modernish engine.
