This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

One day, Linux will be ready for a no-headaches gaming PC. Genuinely looking forward to it.
Well, is Windows?
So far it's working fine, yeah. No need to choose among a zillion distros someone swears is the best, I know for a fact there are first-party drivers for everything, no need to fiddle around with CLI, it plays everything my graphics card can muster, and I don't need to worry about game compatibility or whether Nvidia deigned to support my OS.
Windows has a lot of problems, but if you're just looking to play games without too much complexity... It's as close to "it just works" as I can imagine getting without switching to a console (or limiting myself to the few games that work on Apple devices, I guess).
Plus, big argument, it's familiar. You can forgive more annoyances when you're not learning something new. Humans are just lazy like that.
Had this conversation with my brother the other day...I'm all for Linux gaming and he is staying with windows because learning something new is antithesis to his having fun. I totally get it.
What a reasonable person you are! /gen
