My Xbox controller has just worked on Linux for months now?

Bulk prices are generally cheaper per unit but it's very, very possible to not be able to bear the upfront cost of a large number of units and be forced by that to spend more money in smaller chunks over a longer time

There's no edited tag on the post so I have to wonder how (1889-2024) wasn't an indicator too lol

Hey! I know it's been a couple weeks but I figured I'd say that I went down to the lobby at 10am just now, and there's two guys in there right now swapping out the cash reader. There's the regular restocker doing his job and a second guy with one of the handheld firmware loader things, I'm not sure if it just needs a software change or if he needs to be there to swap the actual slot, but it does look swappable

I see! Thank you for the explanation, I'm still very new as this is my first Linux and I did no planning or intentional research before swapping over, I just got mad at Windows and was formatting my main dive 15 minutes later. I avoided Mint specifically because I'd seen lemmy threads saying it was using old packages on purpose for stability reasons, and that for actual gaming I'd want rolling release?

I don't know the difference between Wayland and X11, all I know is that they're options, and I'm 30 days into the Arch-derived(is that the right term?) Garuda Linux that defaults Wayland with a 3080 and I haven't had any problems? Aren't the Mint problems that it's a stable distro with outdated stuff?

A month ago as of tomorrow I got fed up with Windows and googled "gaming Linux", picked Garuda because it was near the top result and I like the FFXIV Garuda, was wiping my Windows drive within fifteen minutes of deciding I was done, and have been gaming with my 3080 since. Haven't touched X11 because Garuda defaults to Wayland and I don't even know the difference between them, and so far everything has just worked

I'd be really impressed if anyone still gamed on ATI.

I'm not that guy but yes and Nvidia

I was on reddit slightly before subreddits were added as functionality, so 16ish years, and lemmy to me just feels like that 2008ish reddit except most of the userbase is 40 instead of 18
