I have too many Half-life games and mods installed and refuse to remove them to make room for other, larger, games.
Now I will have to try the bucket%.

So… not a Tetris fan, are you?
Some games give you a story that sticks with you and you love them for that (Half-Life, To The Moon, Bioshock Infinite). Some give you an experience that sticks with you but no story to speak of (like Doom and Doom II, which I still play).
What I dislike is having to deal with people in my games. I already do that in reality, thank you very much.
To me games are about escaping reality.
I’ve been doing that for years. I genuinely do not know how to fix Windows anymore. Took a while for my family and friends to accept since I “work with computers” but now they don’t automatically come to me when Windows breaks.
No. You can layer ext4 with LVM and LUKS to get a lot of features (but not all) that you get with BTRFS or ZFS. FAT is not suitable for anything other than legacy stuff.
That has been a pain point for a long time, along with signing and verifying digital signatures in PDF documents in Linux.
Adobe is up there along with Nvidia on my top of shitty companies that actually hinder Linux adoption by ignoring it.
Yes, and also Phoronix, LWN.net, GamingOnLinux, Hack-a-day, and a few others that give me good, content. It’s the least I can do.
Also your DNS traffic will leak what you are doing.
Just follow the most upvoted answer and keep personal stuff on your personal PC or mobile if you want to avoid trouble.
The Debt.
A Mossad team is tasked to retrieve a Nazi war criminal that is living in East Germany and get it to Israel.
I would recommend it.
I can hear this picture.
Tidal. Higher quality audio is the main reason. I got tired of hearing Spotify’s muddled compressed sound and waiting for them to release a higher quality plan.
You are not wrong, it is within human nature to seek validation for their actions. Some people came here expecting a mass migration from Reddit that did not exactly happen because inertia is a powerful force in human behavior. So some people are sour about it, it’s understandable.
Skyrim SE, yet again. At this point it feels like a second job.
True, but most people don’t sandbox their games, and while a userspace binary can’t usually get root privileges, it doesn’t need it to exfiltrate their summer holiday pics or health bulletin.
A good first step to mitigate this is to use separate gaming and serious accounts.
While I understand and empathize with your dislike of proprietary blobs (fuck you, NVIDIA), every game is a huge blob unless you’re playing FOSS games exclusively.
Manjaro on my gaming PC, Xubuntu on a couple of lab PCs, Haiku on a very old PC, windows 11 at work with Xubuntu on a VM.
It will. Keep in mind that, depending on the type of job, you’ll have to keep learning new tech just to keep up: virtualization, containers, orchestrators, automation, backups, logging, auditing, scripting and God knows what else. It’s a good starting point to get you the jobs that the Windows crowd won’t touch because of the command line.
Portal / Portal 2
“Science Is Fun” is a great track, as are the end songs “Still Alive” and “I Want You Gone”.

Just pure sillyness, with a Lemmy cameo in the video.
I can confirm it works as advertised, has very low maintenance and good performance.
I use it for gaming with Steam, Heroic, Lutris and a bunch of emulators, web browsing, some light development and home lab.
