Gaming on Linux has drastically improved. I’m still cautious about buying non-native games and running them via Proton, but I am no longer worried about not having access to cool games! Proton is one of the best innovations that Valve came out with thanks to their Steam Deck. It makes non-native games feel like native titles, most of the time my save data is intact, and I can just pick up where I left off. It’s rare that I can’t use an older save if I am using Proton to play a game.
There are very few games I have I can’t play on Linux.
Cant get the Crysis Remastered trilogy (epic games variants) working. Can’t get Alan Wake Remastered working above 16fps. And a few more, but guess I don’t need to play them.
Paperback. For big books maybe hardcover so it stays in one piece, but tbh all the 1000+ page books I have are still paperbacks. Even if they were the same price, I think paperbacks are easier to hold and read since they’re more flexible. But the sturdiness of hardbacks can be nice sometimes
There’s an old game called “total annihilation”, amazing game, I’ve played for probably a couple hundred hours over the years.It’s file size is pretty small too though I can’t remember off the top of my head.
It’s an RTS, there is a more modern version (free I believe) with better QOL and graphics called “Beyond All Reason” though it’s much larger
I generally avoid anything with visible branding, aside from sneakers where it is largely a given and I found some nikes that work well with my feet.
I do look to buy quality/durability where possible, within budgetary reason, I try not to contribute to our mountains of garbage too much. Naturally i also avoid short fashion which will look bad next year, which is luckily pretty easy as a man.
For most other things aside from clothing I generally follow the military grade system: buy the cheapest thing meeting your needs. I generally have an initial idea what I am looking for (I basically never go on a sort of unprompted or unguided shopping spree just to buy something) and the needed properties, and I will opt for whatever does what I need the least expensive.
For food and groceries i generally buy organic store brand, though a few brand products just taste irreplaceable, so i go with those.
Distros just ship packages, some rare drivers may be missing, distros have different versions of drivers, some are external and packagers just take proprietary code and make it compatible, like with NVIDIA on Fedora.
To be engaging and genuine. I think there’s a lot of ways to achieve it, but it depends on the story and the public, because some may see too idyllic relationships as unrealistic and others may see more down-to-earth relationships as toxic.
Kubuntu chose to not ship Plasma 6 because it didnt match their release point. While in general a good decision, stable releases are the flaw really.
So a semi-rolling Kubuntu yes, but LTS Kubuntu before Plasma 6? Wouldnt recommend.
Ubuntu is also still full in on Snaps. Flatpak comes from a PPA I think. Their store is snaps-first.
While this is not a bad concept, Flatpaks are better for many reasons. They also may be worse for some others, mainly because Snaps just use Apparmor for sandboxing, like the rest of the system, so you can make easy exceptions.
I have a friend who used to drink too much water. This eventually lead to him having dangerously low sodium levels but he didn’t know that. One day, he knew something was wrong and was yelling to his landlady next door to get help. He passed out outside of his apartment. Then he was in a coma for 4 days.
I asked him what the coma was like. He said he remembered having a vague sense of panic like he was still trying to get his landlady. He doesn’t remember, but when he first woke up, he was screaming her name and fighting the nurses.
