KDE will never use auto tiling as if you’ve followed any of the git issues regarding this KDE devs themselves have said they personally don’t use tiling so they’ll never add it to Plasma. Their compromise was basically setting pre-designated areas on your desktop to drag windows to. KDE wants users to use the mouse. they prefer it.

If you like using the mouse alot and you’re more comfortable with clicking than yeah there’s really no point in using a tiler.
If you’re someone like me who doesn’t like using a mouse and are used to VIM or Emacs for navigation then tilers make sense. In many cases using a keyboard is faster than using a mouse. OR you’re a weirdo in the middle then you’d use Krohnkite on KDE.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Halo community lead wears PlayStation t-shirt to announce: ‘Halo is on PlayStation going forward’ [VGC]English
31·5 hours agowhy would I want to go through the first Halo campaign yet again when I know I’m eventually going to get to the level with the flood where EVERY ROOM looks exactly the same and I’m just going to turn it off.
I know what’s going to happen, I know what’s ahead of me, I know I don’t want to do that again.
Now if they redid ODST or Reach? sure I’d be all for that. I enjoy those Halo games. but for gods sake I don’t want to play Halo 1 ever again.

Games@lemmy.world•Ex-PlayStation boss says the games industry is "littered" with Fortnite clones and "people trying to do Overwatch with different skins," but keep dreaming if you're just trying to get "big sacks of moEnglish
11·22 hours agoto be fair there are many games that are like Getting Over it or Balatro or even Vampire Survivors it’s just many of them aren’t as successful or known as those games.
honestly I would say it hasn’t really gotten into it’s groove/good until like a few months into this year. It’s gotten A LOT better than what it was. So waiting until now to try it was a good call actually.
there is depending on what distro you’re on and the packages they provide for Plasma.
Like Arch for example you can get a barebones basic version of KDE Plasma. NixOS you can tell it to ignore certain parts of Plasma from the package when you’re building it. I would assume other distros have something similar. This applies to the settings too. you can literally make your plasma include zero kwin stuff if you wanted.

World News@lemmy.world•Trump considering plans to target cocaine facilities inside Venezuela, officials sayEnglish
121·24 hours agoI don’t understand why though. If the files were released tomorrow and it had his name in big bold colourful letters all throughout it what then? I know he’s in them, you know he’s in them, EVERYONE knows he’s in them so what’s the point? motions to impeach the fucker get presented almost every week and go no where. Why would I believe THIS time would be different? Nothing can touch the guy. Hell he lead a coup at one point and US fuckers elected him AGAIN.
I GUARANTEE you if the files were released tomorrow there would be a collective “A-HA TOLD YA SO” and then jack all because that’s how Americans operate - focus on one thing, get obsessed with it, lose focus, wait for the next thing.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Nice changes when switching to Linux and a smallish problemEnglish
3·3 days agoyeah try turning off the hardware accelration on the browser…which browser btw?
if the hardware accelration doesn’t work check the Lutris forums and/or discord to see if anyone has come across the issue. Have you tried running ESO via steam at all? potentially could also check it via protondb.com if you try to run it via steam.
Generally though there should be scripts with Lutris to install it correctly. But i’d still check with the Lutris forum/discord (they’re really nice and helpful dudes) if the browser thing doesn’t work.

9·3 days agoyeah probably hardware accelration on the browser. could also be the DE/WM you’re using on it.
What desktop environment and/or window manager is she using on the laptop?
if Fortnite is a crucial element for you, and it sounds like it is, you’re going to have to dual boot.
Games like Fortnite, League of Legends, Valorant, Apex Legends, recent Battlefields, etc aren’t going to work on Linux due to the fact Epic, Riot and EA decided kernel level anti-cheats were their “best” options.
That being said the majority of games work on Linux and especially via Steam.
As far as Distros go Bazzite is primarily focused on gaming. If you want something that will do both gaming and work stuff then I’d suggest CachyOS. It’s fast, very fast, great for both work and gaming. It will give you plenty of options for Desktop Environments on install and I would suggest you install it with KDE Plasma so you have a bit of familiarity coming from Windows.
I recently tried Gentoo, I liked it, dare I say I loved it. The problem is, I don’t have time for it. I would love to use it as a daily driver on my main rig but due to my work it would never fly.
I am however thinking of putting it on my server where I just don’t need to spend time with it. I can compile and and just let it be while I do something else.

192·5 days agoI live in Canada, my Parents live in the US.
this past weekend my Uncle in England passed away from cancer and my parents are heading back for the funeral. I’m absolutely terrified for them because they have dual US and Canadian Citizenship. I’m scared what’s going to happen to them when they try to re-enter the US. I really wish they didn’t have to go.
