Yeah, wotsisname's Law of Headlines. If it ends in a question mark the answer to the question is no

Yeah, I'm currently in school for opticianry in Canada and both doctors and opticians are required to give you a written prescription that you can take elsewhere, and in most if not all provinces they have to put your PD on it too

I agree with the other guy, I've done 3 playthroughs of that game on openSUSE tumbleweed with a GTX 1080.

My experience is don't try and run most games linux native, run them through proton in steam. Far more consistently out of the box working. If you run into any trouble, ProtonDB will have the fix posted 90% of the time

I personally find games to be more glitchy on Wayland, so if you're picking a compositor and want stability I'd say go X11.

That said, if you want "just works" go Linux Mint. I set my partner up with it near december 2023 and it's been smooth sailing. And they don't touch the command line at all

Out of curiosity, which games? Was steam flatpak or from repo?

I don't know, it sure seems like there's an idea this poster has passed on to all of us...

To anyone who hasnt: do it! I did it a year ago and the only things you cant do are games with kernel level anticheat, but pretty much any of those games arent worth playing in my opinion anyways.

I mean they had to take the photo first to do the comparison, unless they were intending to make the comparison beforehand and had the other photo ready already

Where did you get this picture of me

I'm jealous, that looks incredible

I feel like after a few days chained to a tree your sense of time might not be very reliable
