Vortex is written in .Net, so, yeah.

You’ve just said your 5 biggest problems with Linux are things that Microsoft did.
That’s like, a million people’s wages. Absurd.
My company has build scripts that practically pull half an OS from an update mirror every time someone commits a code change.
It’s maddening how inefficient CI/CD setups are.
I have two Surface Pros that are BIOS locked so I can’t install Linux. They also don’t support Win11.
I’m not sure what I can do with them.
Xiph have always produced the best stuff. Competition is great and all, but at the end of the day, Xiph’s codecs beat everyone at everything.
This new thunderbolt feature hilariously does what I once did with RS-232.
I already do.
There is one. It’s called “AirGuard” and it has been around for a while now. I’m using it on GrapheneOS.
GSF is where most of Google’s invasive user tracking happens. It’s proprietary, closed source and is not part of AOSP (Android Open Source Project). It is, by definition, spyware.
Google did not put it in Android. They put it in Google Services Framework. Ironically, GSF is the first part you rip out to protect your privacy.
I bet a ton of it is Nvidia and AMD junk.
To check that box, you first need to sign up to the developer portal and pair the headset to your account. It wasn’t even my headset. I just wanted to connect it to Steam on my PC.
In future, I would be looking into something that behaves more like a peripheral device. It should be no harder to connect than a gamepad.
It was a while ago, but I think it stopped operating normally for my wife’s account, and I had issues adding myself as a second user (not the device owner) with dev access.
The nonsense where I had to get permission from meta to take control of my own hardware was utterly absurd. It was 1000x harder than tapping a button 8 times.
I tried it a year ago and couldn’t get it to work at all. The install process was so destructive that I had to factory reset the headset afterwards.
I’d try again, but I’m not sure I want to put that kind of pressure on my marriage.
And my wife got a Meta Quest 2 headset that does neither of those. Ugh.
And half the time you’ll find it in the registry too. Linux has proven quite well that an OS doesn’t need a registry.
Oh, and what’s with ProgramData and AppData being two completely different things. I understand the difference between the two directories, but there is no difference between a program and an app. Everywhere else it’s Machine/User.
I’m on the Ubuntu 24.04 beta and this is what I get in a day.
The internet is full of bad advice.
Man pages are never wrong.
Even if they do get the VBR encoding perfect, you’ll still get people on bad connections that will only have a buffer underrun when a dude shows up in a sparkly suit.
