My 2021 Toyota corolla will fault out and stop steering for you.

Blizzard used to use it for their entire WoW Armory website to look people up, They converted off it years ago, but for awhile they used XML/XSLT to display the entire page


You can put some work into windows to slim it down some, a unattended generator to turn most of the crap off on install, then Shutup OO goes a long way


> You can put some work into windows

That's exactly my point.

There's an ever growing list of things to do in order to fix Windows, and that list is likely longer than Linux. This whole "your time is free" argument hinges on Windows not having exactly the same issue, or worse.


Right, it IS nvidia's fault at this point, but its still like what? 90% of the consumer GPU market.


Funny how it went from "just get an Nvidia card for Linux" and "oh my god, what did I do to deserve fglrx?" to "just get an AMD card" and "it's Nvidia, what did you expect?"


They're also selling $3000 nVidia AI workstations that exclusively uses Linux. But what if you want to watch an HDR video on it? No. What if you want to use Google Meet on Chrome/Wayland? It's broken.


For aftermarket purchase sure, but 95% of consumer machines are using either Intel or AMD integrated graphics.


if you are running KDE you can whitelist Steam for remote desktop work, this is because of wayland.


I get to see the Steam Big Picture albeit very laggy. Also the games I tried such as Transport Fever 2 and Valheim are streamed and visible but still noticeably laggy. Only some games such as Arc Raiders yield a black image.


This still has a "sometimes" on it, there are more then a few games that need magic proton flags to run well, nothing you can't go look up on protondb, but lots of games you would want to play with friends might have some nasty anti-cheat on it that just won't let you play it at all.


Exactly. Battlefield 6 for example does not work at all in Proton.

This is a far better user experience for Battlefield players than in Windows.

Have you ever actually attempted to play that half-assed buggy piece of shit?


Is it the flagship of Linux Distros right now? I though RHEL (The most common to see paid software package for) would be up there, along side its offshoots of Rocky / Fedora


Oh those are already here, Its why Battlefield needs Secureboot turned on so it can use the IOMMU to protect the game kinda


would be interesting to see if this works in playwright using your existing browser's remote control APIs (Using claude code via the playwright mcp)


I've had extensive luck doing just that. Spend some time doing the initial work to see how the page works and then give the llm examples of the HTML that should be clicked for next page or the css classes that indicate the details you're after and then ask for a playwright to yaml tool.

Been doing this for a few months now to keep an eye on the prices for local grocery stores. I had to introduce random jitter so Ali Express wouldn't block me from trying to dump my decade+ of order history.


I bet the nerds making the PCBs, the jellybean parts and connectors are making mint as well.
