Windows 11’s Notepad continues to get Copilot-powered AI features – a handy addition to a tool whose main appeal has always been simplicity and minimalism. Not all users are happy, however, with some saying AI features are overkill.

      Microsoft seem to have very tight grip on the corporate world. It’s getting better, but still.
      I left a company once because they started switching to Microsoft infrastructure and that just got miserable. But I’m a privileged in that regard, a lot of people can’t do that

            I had a dream where somebody pirated windows games on Linux and just played them through wine/proton. Just like… you know, legally purchased copies.

            Of course, as an upstanding citizen I haven’t tried this in real life.

                Neither Wine or Proton require running Windows. They’re compatibility layers which allow Linux to operate software intended for Windows.

                You may be thinking about when someone emulates a full virtual Windows machine within Linux, which is more resource-intensive. The overhead and performance impact of a compatibility layer like Wine or Proton is generally negligible compared to running such a VM.

                Wine is not an emulator. It *translates* windows code to linux at runtime. Bazzite wouldn’t beat windows at so many benchmarks if it was a virtual machine.

                Also I wouldn’t know but if you are looking for where to potentially find native linux binaries for games that support it, you should probably go ask that question on totally unrelated counter strike forums

                You seem to really want this to not work, but I suggest actually looking into how far gaming on Linux has come. Proton is actual magic.

            Idk if you got it from the source directly inatead of websites that just reupload with malware, you would see linux versions BEFORE windows.

        Yeah, but how will I pirate games on Linux?

        If this is sarcasm, you might want to tag it as such, before half the Linux community shows up to give pointers.

        I, myself, have never pirated anything, obviously.

        But I heard from a friend that it can be pretty great, even on Linux.

        I mostly download ROMs for old Nintendo and Sony consoles, if for some reason I get a hankering for a modern title I’ll purchase it on my steam account which I run on my Ubuntu laptop.
