I abandoned Xbox back when they announced Xbox One and said it required a Kinect and would be always online for DRM purposes. The backlash was severe enough that I remember their stock price taking a hit and that Major Tom dude having to come out and backtrack.
I knew then and there that they'd always try to bring this DRM/hyper controlling nonsense back. Just didn't think it'd take them so long.
-
I've never owned any Xbox because even Windows is too hyper-controlling for me.
(I game on Linux, of course.)
-
Linux user doesn't mention they use Linux challenge (impossible).
-
I bet it's arch (btw).
-
Arch is for newbies, real Linuxers use Gentoo (it's very comfy and let's me use anything and everything)
-
Would you say Gentoo is better than Arch for semi-newbies wanting to experiment with multimedia, coding and AI, with only few obstacles?
(I am one myself, looking to switch to a Linux distro on an old MacBook Pro soon!)
-
No.
Gentoo is mostly for people who like to have maximum control over their OS and custom compile software they use.
Even if you have a beefy hardware, updates will take some time, and unless you want to study the compile flags, you will end up with the same binary builds you would on any other distro.
-
Thank you for this useful answer. In this case, I guess e.g. Zorin OS, Pop!_OS or simply Mint would be better recommendations?
-
Yes, unless you actually care about compiling blutooth out of your packages (it's fcking everywhere, whyy), just go with anything else.
The beauty of Linux is that you can do everything in every distro. Nothing stops you from installing Zorin and putting Portage (Gentoo package/build manager) on it. But if you just want to use software as-is, just use whatever. Pop should have better nvidia drivers for cards they ship with System76, Mint is less corporate Ubuntu, Zorin I've never tried.

That's when I stopped. I think the only things I missed were Halo 5 and 6, and I understand I missed very little.
I'm using game pass on PC now, and when they start fucking around with that, I'll turn them back off.
-
I jumped over to Playstation and I can't say I'm having a bad time. Some great exclusives have come out. Horizon Zero Dawn, Spider-Man 1 (I'm too poor for Spider-Man 2 so have no opinions), Bloodborne, God of War... Been a nice time and same here on Halo being the only thing I missed.
Well that and the controller.

I was going to get Xbox (whatever the random name for this next gen is) for Christmas and have been with Microsoft since the 360, but now I’m moving back to the PlayStation 5. Granted, I’m barely a gamer and use it more as a media center than a game console, but even I’m getting tired of Microsoft. I’ve been off of their operating system since college so gaming is the last Microsoft product I had.
-
Yes.... YES! Join us brother/sister/sibling! Join us on Playstation!
Edit: lol I'm being sarcastic
