Sadly for many games the Windows version runs and looks better than the Linux version. That’s often because the Linux version is done by outside contractors whose contract expired. So while the Windows version will receive updates the Linux version lies stagnant.
See Tomb Raider 2013 for instance. The Windows version via Proton looks and runs much better than the native one.

Probably too much salt.
Do you have zram set up?
Easiest would be to get a VM frontend like Gnome Boxes. You just download the installation iso of the distro you want to try, create a new VM in Boxes, point it at the iso and when it boots install the distribution normally.
It will be completely separated from your normal system. It’s a second computer inside your computer. When you’re done testing you can just delete the VM.
If I recall correctly there were years when Microsoft was a top contributor to the kernel. Long before Azure. I think it was mostly for Microsoft hardware like joysticks and mice.
Spotify makes press release about stopping modified apps so that users list all the apps that are working.
me_irl, except it is a skill issue.
Isn’t that before the Steam Deck even? Or is there just no firmware for the Deck on fwupd.org?
Use a general e-mail app like Thunderbird and never deal with this shit again.
Welcome to the year 13.7 billion!
I wanted to reinstall my Gentoo system. A SUSE (back before OpenSUSE) disc was the newest distro I had lying around. I thought it shouldn’t matter from which system I do the install, Gentoo won’t care.
So I repartitioned /dev/hda, installed the base system and went to set up my mount points. Only to discover that my data drive was gone. Stupid SUSE labeled the drives differently. /dev/hdb was my old system drive and I had repartitioned my old data drive.
Taught me to really check which drive was which. I wouldn’t touch SUSE again for decades because of this.
They are talking about BG3. There you cannot make a regular unarmed strike while holding a weapon.
There are many significant differences in the rules between BG3 and 5e.
Yes, daddy!
Around that time we had the Nokia N900. For me it was the perfect phone. Debian as a base with Nokia’s (unfortunately proprietary) apps on top of X11. You could just recompile Linux apps like Gimp and it worked. Apps that were made for Palm’s WebOS worked.
Pidgin’s libpurple was used for all the instant messaging so just about any protocol just worked without any need for extra apps. You could easily hack the underlying system. People added functionality like using the light sensor as a button. Angry Bird’s first release was on that phone.
I miss it dearly. It was killed by Microsoft. Nothing ever managed to come close. That little 128 MB RAM machine had better multitasking than modern 8 GB phones.
I put off the switch so long because I didn’t know what udev was but I understood that it was important.
As someone who’s retired let me warn you that HR might have a word with you if you show up dressed like me.
Doesn’t Pop!OS do that already?
The first one that came to mind was fli4l (Floppy ISDN for Linux). Originally a distro of German origin that fit on a single floppy disk to turn a 386 or 486 PC into a router for ISDN connections. Last I looked it’s still actively worked on.
There are probably tons of more obsuce ones. But this is one I actually used.
I got our engagement rings from a gumball machine. And I didn’t even pay for those myself because I didn’t have the necessary 20 Cent coins. A passerby gave me three and didn’t accept a Euro in return.
