The demon is Microsoft’s AI
Clippy sharpened to a spike
Sounds like a standard windows 11 install to me?
The machine spirit yearns for linux
$ sudo systemd-inhibit luciferOk, but imaging playing one of the new Doom games with that set up:
Action starts to get intense.
The tension, and temperature rises.
Suddenly, a whisper at the back of your mind “hail satan hail satan hail satan”
As more enemies appear, and the temperature rises, it becomes louder, pulsing in your ears. Somehow a whisper that is now shouting.
As you cleanse the demonic filth, the chanting subsides and stops, bringing a measure of peace, at least for the moment.
Best way to kill -9 a daemon 🤷
Demons prefer FreeBSD
When was the last time you saw a possessed Linux system? Don’t worry I’ll wait
All my Linux systems are possessed by daemons
my Linux has dæmons all over it
The good dæmons compete with pathogenic bad dæmons, and are essential for the computer’s health.
Every linux comes with perl and bash, possession is a single script away
Your computer wants to be possessed by Daemons sir
Daemons > demons
They should install Linux. Arch is the only way to make a demon leave your computer and never return.
TempleOS
Will TempleOS even run on modern hardware?
If god wills it
I’m inclined to believe that’s normal Windows behavior at this point…
I’m sure you have no ulterior motives on this subject, maxwells_daemon.
Install TempleOS to sanctify your computer and rid it of demons once and for all.
Good move, now the demon can’t get a wi-fi connection.
This is like 99% of Lemmy users.
“How do I fix this issue with my computer?”
“Have you heard of our lord and savior FOSS?”
would actually solve 90% of problems.
With Linux:
I don’t have forced updates.
I do have driver compile error when I update the kernel.I don’t have spyware recording my screen.
I don’t have Discord record my screen when I want it to, either.I don’t have ads for games in my launcher.
I don’t have HDR for games in my Steam library.Etc.

And the new problems are way above most people’s ability to solve. The usual man on the street is not the usual lemmy user.
OTOH, I used to give away Little Old Lady computers to seniors. Slap Linux Lite on there, setup their email and browser, DONE. They would never call me back for support.
HDR works quite well, with a bit of tinkering naturally, for Steam games. (Fedora 42 using ProtonPlus to get GE-Proton-10 and modifying the launch parameters)
What GPU and DE? It’s been a complete nightmare for me, and only the gamescope WSI seems to actually work.
GNOME, what else. AMD Ryzen censored 7 350 with Radeon 860M 32GB of RAM Internal Display
The drivers for the GPU are unfortunately not in the LiveUSB image so I had to connect my laptop using a HDMI to VGA converter to my CRT monitor to install Fedora xD
Launch options are: PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%
I don’t use GNOME, but I’ll give those launch parameters a try and see if that works, thanks!
Edit: It didn’t work. The game could detect HDR, but the color was completely washed out. Probably Nvidia being Nvidia, but oddly enough HDR can work if I use gamescope as an intermediary.
What DE do you use?
I mean tbf most of these Linux issues are pretty easy to fix/avoid.
Honestly, that was the biggest difference for me, when I switched.
A bunch of my issues I’d had on Windows just went away, overnight. And, sure, I ran into other problems; but I would’ve on Windows, too, except I can usually resolve them on Linux.
My machine is so much more usable, just on a daily basis; and I’ve learned so much more about my computer naturally since I switched.
Literally saw this on Mastodon yesterday.
“How come emailing a document to myself is still the easiest way to send something to another device?”
“Have you tried using Linux?”
Is it? With the advent of cloud storage, it seems that is the easiest way. Any cloud storage, any OS, its the concept of cloud storage that solves this problem.
It’s not the best way though. Idk why you’d hate on someone actually providing a solution.
I use KDEconnect nowadays, but I definitely used to email stuff to myself!
Aye, “learn a new OS” as the solution to a problem solved by simply using LocalSend on whatever you already have.
I mean they aren’t wrong. KDE connect on phone and PC is a game changer. GS connect if you use Gnome Desktop. Not only can you send a file instantly, you can also copy your clipboard between devices, answer SMS on your PC, or have the phone pause your PC media when the phone rings. Its amazing. There is a windows version but it doesn’t work properly.
Just use Landrop like a normal person
Ah, there’s the problem when trying to move stuff between Windows and my Steam Deck.
it’s true though, specificity TempleOS
B-b-but TempleOS isn’t Linux!
