No need for windows to game anymore, steam/proton, lutrus and wine handle what I need just fine these days. This is more about using Microsoft excel as I have some union business that operates out of an excel file and Google sheets and libreoffice do not play nice with all the macros going on in it. Literally just to run excel.

I'll read up on it myself, but can virtual box run a windows instance from inside my Linux partition? I've never done any virtualization but that would be about the only thing from windows that would be useful. Just so I could use our excel doc to do billhead.
As a bonus, more Futurama!
Steam deck and my desktop. The only thing that would be useful is if I could find a program that would work with excel macros for union business. I basically have always used computers for gaming and browsing.
At least there will be another season. I really enjoyed the show. It gets pretty wild but it's fun.
Do you just use the trackpads and a custom control scheme or is it friendly enough with the controller setup? That's pretty cool either way.
Do you mean handheld or while docked with m&k? I didn't think it had gamepad controls.
Maybe try making it an emulation machine? I use mine for both normal PC gaming and emulation while I'm working out of town.
Look at games like high fleet and mech engineer on PC. They have kinda non-standard UI.
Got em.
I'm definitely the weirdo on this one. The fine tuned controlling is way better on m&k but I couldn't get the hang of it. The analog stick for movement felt a lot more intuitive to me but you definitely have considerably less control aim. The lock on feature works pretty well so I make it work.
Thanks, I appreciate it. I just never needed to do it before but I'm getting to the point that it would be very useful for me. ๐
