I feel like there are some missed opportunities

  • Sensors that don't work because a proprietary driver is missing
  • Having to add repositories to get wifi working
  • Voice assistant that only works if you know terminal command parameters by heart
  • More tool windows
  • More xorg.conf to get displays working
  • A flame war about the relative benefits of obscure infrastructure componemts
  • 7 package managers, 3 if which are needed to install 90% of needed software. The remaining 10% somehow still needs to be installed via shell scripts
  • Completely new UI in each version, still looks like it was designed by german ocelots in the 90s

And you'd end up using it almost exclusively to play Windows-based VR games through compatibility layers.

The only compatible game is Tux Racer.

And Super Tux! 🐧

that'd be so much better, it seems like the creator haven't used Linux for more than a day

What will the boys at Linux Incorporated come up with next?

[-] remotelove@lemmy.ca 7 points 8 months ago

Pshh. They just steal all of their ideas from the CEO of Bitcoin.

If Linux (from 2009) Made a VR Headset

[-] walthervonstolzing@lemmy.ml 10 points 8 months ago

pathetic overall

Quite some time that I've seen something so stupid

It's even absolutely not true, that Linux is last. They just don't know about the less used OS' on desktop

What a braindead take...

C'mon guys, learn to take a joke instead of downvoting. Don't you wanna be better than redditors?

I dont know why peeps take this so seriously. Its obviously not accurate. Maybe its not inaccurate enough to be funny? I laughed a bit.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
