    Re: Best DIstro for PC gaming

    I'm not sure that there's enough to say one way or another. There's maybe one chart that shows benchmarks for Linux distros that I've been able to find, and it was more comparing Steam OS to Windows...
  2. Re: Windows 10 ripped off Ubuntu 14.01 unsuccessfully

    I wasn't so much trying to excuse the deficiency as simply point out that, depending on who you talk to, search anywhere can be rather hit-or-miss.



    I can see .tex not being common and maybe...

    Re: It's Tablet --Gate!

    I look forward to Roger Goodell aggressively going after Kubiak and Manning over this.

    Anyways, good on the Broncos for beating the Patriots. As much as I love seeing the Patriots win (simply...
  4. Re: Windows 10 ripped off Ubuntu 14.01 unsuccessfully

    I don't use GNOME or KDE, so I can't say how bad they actually are, but to be fair to them, I've heard a lot of complaints about searching in Windows 10. Now, personally, I have no issues with search...
  5. [SOLVED] Re: how to evaluate memory usage of functions?

    I'm actually curious to see what you come up with those tests. I'm not very familiar with bash, especially its inner workings. It'll be interesting to see how it compares to C.

    Yeah, I've tried just about everything. I guess I didn't check to see if the network was blocking UDP broadcasts, but I'm not in control of this network. Besides, I haven't had a problem with UDP...

    Re: KDE Connect

    I heard that it works for more than just KDE, but I wasn't able to get it functioning with Xubuntu. It's a real shame. Pushbullet on Linux isn't quite on the same level as Windows, and KDE Connect...
  8. Re: Windows 10 ripped off Ubuntu 14.01 unsuccessfully

    Keyword Search has existed since Windows Vista. I'm not even sure exactly what you mean by the other two.

    But even then, who cares? No one, to my knowledge, has a patent on these features, so...

    Re: Is windows 10 better than Ubuntu for gaming??

    I'm talking specifically about the core PC gaming market. Many of these people build their own computers and buy the OS. Even if they don't, they at least know about Linux and Steam OS, to the point...

    Re: Microsoft Ending Support for Windows 8

    To my knowledge, Microsoft doesn't have plans to ever go this far, and I seriously doubt they will. They've received quite a bit of criticism for their handling of the upgrade process already. I...

    I was going based on the specs placed in the third post and comparing Ubuntu to Windows. Not only were those specs a little more modern, but Windows 10 is also much better than Vista for gaming....

    Unless I'm severely mistaken, no. The file is basically text. What that code can create on the other hand is a lot more. Consider the following C code:
