Why are shitposts in Spanish funnier than English
- I mean same for shitposts in German. Just funnier when it's a language you sorta understand, but not completely.
  
  I always laugh at German memes. I have absolutely no idea what they are. When I see them i imagine a German person crafting a meme which is just a statement of fact and laughing to themself.

  Aaah.... Séptimo arte
- It adds a layer of incongruity.
- I'm native spanish speaker, it's portuguese for me the language that really elevates memes for some reason.
- ¡Soy loco por los Córnabals!

Wait since when is this community Spanish?
- Rough translation:
  Linux Mint: thanks to Steam and Proton I can run Windows games with more FPS. Gabe Newell, you are blessed!
  Windows: the Microsoft telemetry ate the RAM, I can’t give so much FPS
  
  I would translate the sentences the same except I would change the ends of those two sentences to say: "Bless you, Gabe Newell" and "I can't give as many fps".

- It is not, this post breaks rule 5.
  
  No this post does NOT break rule 5:
  🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  I speak absolutely zero Spanish, yet I understand the post text about 80%, enough to get the gist of it.
  That Linux runs Grand Theft Auto faster with Proton on Steam than on native Windows 11.
  
  Digga, das juckt keinen!
  
  Not really, I'm sure someone who "only speaks English" can get the gist of it.
  
  ¿¡Regla 5?! ¡Dios mío!
  
  So are saying the average user Reads bash script, can't make out Spanish memes?
  
  هذه مشكلة كبيرة!
- Buenos dios amigo
- Since one or two days.
  Edit: Or was it lemmyshitpost?

I don't speak spanish but the doge meme convinced me that linux mint is better.
- Doge memes are universal

universally understood across language barriers

Spanish Linux killed my parents.
- "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my distro. Prepare to die"
- Hahahaha
  
  Jajajaja

Basado y Linux píldora

Wait it actually runs that much better on Linux? Is that because of missing DRM or something?
- IIRC less bloat on linux mostly
  
  Bloat has a minimal impact on performance unless your system is seriously starved for resources.
  It's largely the magic of Proton, and everything that goes into Proton. DXVK runs on windows too and that alone can get you double digit performance improvements on the right games.
  
  Not really, it's just how much better Vulkan is compared to DX12. It's mostly about having a way better async scheduler for multi-CPU multi-threading hardware.
- I don't have a discrete graphics card on my laptop, but I can actually play games on Linux Mint that won't run on my similarly-spec'd Windows box with a graphics card.
  It's not a great experience, but it makes stuff playable that otherwise wouldn't be.
- Depends on your hardware and luck. I use fedora and the Mumble server, xlink kai and ZeroTier just won't work for whatever reason. tModloader sort of works but my pc struggles with it, DRG crashes constantly, both games are marked as "works out of the box". Also there isn't any music player with a UI like MusicBee (some are close but not enough) and I use that a lot.
  So I'm stuck with Windows until I get the money to upgrade... Now ain't that ironic?

Buenísimo el Linux sabor Menta

gog games run faster than steam versions too if you wanna go even extra.

I already transitioned my laptop to Linux mint snd I got no regrets. My VPN isnt installing on it, but i can manage it later.
This weekend....desktop time. I spent a lot of time making backups and making sure everything is in order. I'll report on this very thread when I have done it.
- Which VPN?
- Almost every vpn offers openvp or wireguard
- if it's a corporate one for work, i'd like to point to this: https://github.com/yuezk/GlobalProtect-openconnect
  i'm not the developer and have no connection to it other than a user but when i switched i discovered the vpn i use for work didn't have a linux client readily available but this one worked flawlessly.
- How are you trying to install your VPN?

Windows : Uno vez mas te estoy ruegando que me actualizas, por favor, agendate un tiempo.
Yo pronto : Que tal si te borro totalmente y pongo un linux?

Shared with my Linux friend that is learning Spanish to better communicate with the almost-in-laws. They were amused.
update: so was their Windows boyfriend, who helped them with the "bless Gabe Newell" line.

Is GTA V really faster?
I keep Windows around mostly because certain games (like Rimworld/Stellaris and such sims, and CP2077) run faster on Windows... not that I like that one bit.
I'm not running a slow linux distro either. It's CachyOS, git proton, scx_cosmos scheduler (at the moment, though I have tried some others).
But I suspect the fundamental issue is I'm on Nvidia. Another might be that I strip Windows down to the bone (even gutting Defender) because I don't use it for much else, and that does help some games significantly.

¿¡Un meme en español!?
¡¿En Lemmy?!
Hace falta una comunidad activa de usuarios hispanohablantes por aquí (Lemmy), en serio.
Nota: Me saludan al Yo uso software libre, ¡díganle que se una al Fediverso!

Linux ~~mint~~ shint
- Explain please.
  
  They are saying that Linux mint is nearly as bad as Ubuntu, maybe not with all the anti privacy software but it’s still basically a reskinned windows. Arch btw.
