Microsoft Introduces Copilot for Gaming

[Epaminombas]

As always, trolls are distorting the topic that was about Copilot and spewing their complaints about Microsoft while they use Windows.

Not even a psychologist can solve these people's minds.

Not sure who you are referring to, but for me sorry, no Windows at home.

Not even a psychologist can solve these people's minds.

But it's rather easy in your case: Stockholm syndrome.

I have never been harmed by using Windows, it has never given me any problems at home or at work.

Linux, however, is a different story, you have to solve problems that not even the community wants to have to deal with.

Then you are doing something different to a lot of other people in both cases.

Have you ever visited a Linux forum in your life?

The number of unresolved bugs present in 95% of Linux distributions makes PCs unusable.

And that's exactly why Linux continues to lose ground, even to MacOS.

I know that people sabotage themselves with Windows and then complain.
On the other hand, the bugs in Linux are huge and numerous and no one can solve them, not even the holy community.

That's why not even companies can let their employees use Linux on their computers; the company would stop with so many bugs.

Totally pointless, and another excuse for Data collection.

And do you think your Android or iPhone doesn't collect any of your data?

Even your cable and 5G internet provider knows more about you than Microsoft

This thread is so funny, I had to celebrate this with a new avatar.

 

[Easo]

I don't even know what to say. I usually like Microsoft's products, but this brings out questions. Yes, there are use case scenarions, but the implementations, eh...

Yeah, it's been amusing! Some of it, by so-called self-proclaimed-experts, has been shockingly "silly".

A few years later... the "player" just watches the AI play the game, and he enjoys the gameplay.

We already have that my man, they're called game streamers, and most of them are at the AI level (logic, empathy, judgement and everything else).

And by the way, the linux person is either a very bad troll, or someone's (equally bad) AI project. Such amount of a nonsense replies I haven't seen in a while. The decision I've made since that uV news thread is already paying off.

If the "ecosystem fragmentation" keeps people with your mindset out of the Linux world, then I think the strategy should be to maximise fragmentation, because you basically want to replace a "no options" Windows with a "no options" Linux.


Linux: Boot from USB stick and have a working environment.

Windows 11: Sorry, your hardware is too old and you cannot install Windows 11 even though it could easily run on your system but we decided to force stuff up your arse that you don't really want, all optional though

I get it, you're firmly in the Linux camp along with the other, let's see, 3.81%.

If you want to release your own Linux distro and contribute to the fragmentation by all means go ahead. The most likely effect is you'll just waste your time and no one will use it, not even you, and even if someone else decided to switch they'll only be swtiching from a different distro and the needle still won't move and the only actual effect you'd have had is to make it a bit more difficult for other people to get into de door.

As for booting from a USB stick: cool. Do you know how many people need it? 0%. Not zero people but zero percent, not enough to even round to one. So, does it matter that Linux is better a booting from USB than Windows? No. It doesn't.

TL;DR if you want to argue that Linux is as good or better than Windows you need to first show that there are as many people using Linux as there are using Windows, or close enough. Any claim that Linux is better while having 20 times less users is just ...

Yes, I am the elite. Thanks for acknowledging my superiority.

You're really good at reading literally, but no so much at understanding the point of what I was "trying to say" but we'll work on that.

What does matter is the point you deliberately did not comment on: The fact that Windows 11 simply cannot be installed on devices that, technically, could easily run Windows 11. Or Linux. The booting from a USB stick really was just a needle, to remind you that the complications of testing/running Linux are low compared to Windows 11, where in fact the complications could be "not possible".

TL;DR if you want to argue that Linux is as good or better than Windows you need to first show that there are as many people using Linux as there are using Windows, or close enough. Any claim that Linux is better while having 20 times less users is just ...

Since you're so good at statistics (no you're not), explain to me: Why is Windows market share on a decline? And yes, I'm talking about PCs, not mobile phones. In fact mobile phones is the only segment where Windows is actually not loosing ground. Because you can't get lower than 0%.
But let's keep it with PCs, you're already struggling there, so let's not make things overly complicated for you. Let's keep it easy so you can at least pretend you're still following the discussion.

a person who speaks the truth without fear.

Fragmenting the system is a huge mistake.

Within the Linux community, they hate the most popular Linuxes for the most meaningless things.

They hate Ubuntu because it became popular, they hate RedHat and Suse.

And you know the craziest thing about this? It's that Ubuntu, Suse and RedHat are the only distributions with reliable and stable drivers.

And the best Linuxes are the paid ones, which are these 3 distributions I mentioned, which have paid versions with improvements.

Linux is only famous and popular on servers because people use free distributions that don't have any security or decent resources to be a real and serious server.

Linux became popular as Android because Google injected money and serious development, if it weren't for Google we would never have Linux on cell phones.

Even though Linux is free for PC, why doesn't it beat Windows?

People would rather risk getting a virus by activating Windows with .EXE than installing Linux.
And the only people who stay on Linux are those who like to face problems and rack their brains to solve them. It's basically a cult.

Sure, whatever floats your boat.

You're really good at reading literally, but no so much at understanding the point of what I was "trying to say" but we'll work on that.

Says the one who completely missed the point of my argument: why Linux doesn't have better adoption.

What does matter is the point you deliberately did not comment on: The fact that Windows 11 simply cannot be installed on devices that, technically, could easily run Windows 11. Or Linux. The booting from a USB stick really was just a needle, to remind you that the complications of testing/running Linux are low compared to Windows 11, where in fact the complications could be "not possible".

Because it doesn't matter. The fact remains: Windows 70.62% vs Linux 3.81%.
You can list whatever number of issues Windows has and for every single one point how Linux is better and still doesn't matter because: 70.62% vs 3.81%.
The market decides what's good and what isn't and the market says Windows is 18.5354 times better than Linux.

Since you're so good at statistics (no you're not), explain to me: Why is Windows market share on a decline? And yes, I'm talking about PCs, not mobile phones. In fact mobile phones is the only segment where Windows is actually not loosing ground. Because you can't get lower than 0%.
But let's keep it with PCs, you're already struggling there, so let's not make things overly complicated for you. Let's keep it easy so you can at least pretend you're still following the discussion.

Windows market share is on decline, sure. So, what? What's the point you're trying to make? That Windows is not the greatest OS in the whole universe? We already know.

You know what? If you're so gung ho about Linux you shouldn't be looking at Windows at all. You should be looking at MacOS because Linux --WHICH IS FREE-- cannot beat an OS that has a entry point price tag of 599 dollars, which is the cheapest Mini you can get directly from Apple. You can go lower for older hardware or second hand be the fact remains a lot more people would rather pay for MacOS than use Linux for free. Oh, and don't loose sight of Chrome OS because at this rate...

God bless steam for linux gaming.

God bless steam for linux gaming.

Yes, Valve will try to take on the behemoth M$, interesting what they will do.

 

[Epaminombas]

God bless steam for linux gaming.

The problem is that Valve doesn't want to invest money into SteamOS.
They need to spend over $1 billion on developers to make SteamOS interesting. To make it stable on different hardware. And it is totally dependent on Vulkan and OpenGL.

Bazzite is the best solution for that kind of thing currently. The rumors that SteamOS is coming to the general PC are just that, rumors.

However, we're getting off-topic..

 

[Epaminombas]

How can I trust this "Bazzite"??

How can it be reliable enough to not come with a keylogger to steal my passwords?

Does it have any native antivirus?

Does it have any security system whatsoever?

Who will solve the driver compatibility problems? Will the community work for free?

Will it be another fragmented Linux that the community won't give a damn about?

 

[Eternit]

MS new way of gaming. Pay for the subscription and watch copilot playing the games.

 

[Piecilla]

Why Cant you just figure the game out for yourself or why doesn't Microsoft play the game for you and you can just watch lol

 

[razaron]

This is just google with extra steps. Extra performance eating and wattage raising steps.

There's already a plethora of games requiring a wiki open. Like pre-factoriopedia Factorio, Path of Exile and Eve Online. So this won't change anything, mainstream games were already dumbed down 20 years ago. Choosing to play a mainstream, simple, streamlined game then complaining about it being those things is silly considering all the complex options available.

 

[Epaminombas]

Wait, you're an IT professional and you're asking these questions? Are you kidding or just trolling? If neither, I call BS. Just stop, you really are embarrassing yourself.

Okay, I'm stupid and I'm ashamed.

Please answer those questions I asked.

I'm very stupid, make me understand
