Quoting: LeopardFlaw in here is , Chromebook's counts as Linux.Yeah, Chromebooks count as linux in the same way that this [External Link] counts as Batman. I've had some luck liberating HP's chromebooks with Mint, others probably aren't very hard either.
Quoting: Power-Metal-GamesWhat hardware was this on? I've noticed that happens easily to laptops that are either older and have been upraped to Windows 10 or that are just very low end machines. If not that, could have been malware... perhaps even somebody mining cryptocurrency on your dollar.Spoiler, click me
All the time, I can't avoid noticing one thing. You Linux users you are not aware how much you are lucky and all the time I see that most of you are feeling like second class computer users. And, that's the opinion of one recently converted Windows user (me). I switched to Linux because of constant and super irritating problems that I couldn't stand anymore.
I will not count all the problems I experienced with Windows, but I will just describe the worst of all of them: when I finaly stoped using it and decided to switch to Linux I done it because CPU usage on my computer started growing last months every time by some prcent and finaly riched 99%. After some time I found that I need to disable some proceses with strange names every time when I log in to The OS, and that I can do it only manually. But the last time I loged to Windows I noticed that apps requiring much of the GPU time can't work normally anymore (Unreal engine, in my case...) and I checked GPU use. I found that Windows is using 99% of my CPU and 100% of my GPU all the time without doing anything. I done everything what was possible to find and resolve the problem but didn't succeded. I found that so much of people were complaining about the same problem that Windows is using 100% of GPU and are screaming against nVidia to fix drivers, but without reusults. If you don't belive me, just try to find how much of people are asking what to do about hight GPU usage in Windows. The worst thing of them all is that GPU fan worked just at 200-300rpm and themperature riched 75 degrees. In Linux, when temp goes beyond 60, fan starts working and cooling it. In Windows that is not happening without some external application.
Than I gave up, restarted computer and log in to Linux where EVERYTHING is working perfectly and where nothing similar will ever happen. So, it's not strange that people are running away from Windows, but it's strange that Linux and MacOS users are complaining about such a good operating systems that they are using.
Sounds like Killing Floor 2 won't come to Linux any time soon

Quoting: titiI would not suggest a special game, but maybe he can help all those unreal engine games which have trouble with their linux version. For example "Ark survival" which often has horrible graphics glitches.No, these people are big boys and girls and they should be responsible for their own work which they already started. It would be a shame to normalize the attitude that the Linux community will automagically fix every lazily crafted software.

Epic Games looking to make Vulkan the default API for Linux games in Unreal Engine

Quoting: EhvisThey still released Fortnite last week with only Win+Mac support. Do they have Metal support for that or is the OpenGL support actually good enough?That would be for Metal API, I don't know if there is an option to run openGL but I doubt it as they were building for Metal for more than a year.
ARK devs already said that OpenGL won't be fixed and that they will switch to Vulkan for that. In ARK time of course.
