I had to stop calling it reefer when I started dealing with shipping containers, though a 40-foot blunt would be hilarious.

Cosmic - both the GNOME extension and Epoch 1 - is my favorite tiling DE. It just makes the most sense to me, in a way that no other tiling environment has.

This - but I’d take it a step further and use a small-ish USB 3.2 SSD with Ventoy instead. That way, your live Linux experience isn’t kneecapped by having to load programs off a slow USB stick. In a pinch you can use a SATA SSD with a USB-SATA adapter too, that way you can cram a ton of ISOs on there and go to town.

If you’re using Debian as a daily driver you can always use a Flatpak if you need a newer version than what’s available in the repos. The foundation is solid, though, and that’s what matters - it’s one of the things that keeps bringing me back to Debian for office workstation use.

If the user really wants a new browser, Flatpak is always an option.

Indeed - but it runs really well through Proton, as does BL2, so no big deal.

Horizon Zero Dawn runs perfectly through Proton as well. Currently playing Forbidden West, about 24 hours in, and have encountered some minor issues (occasional momentary graphical glitches, rare instances of dialog drops requiring exit to title screen), but I’m not complaining.

There was a native release from the jump, it was always kind of jarring being able to install it without selecting a Proton version first.

Borderlands 2. Give me a mindless Diablo With Guns experience any day.

Yep, hard-line lawful neutral. Though I lean chaotic evil when someone high enough on the food chain starts complaining.

Powerwash Simulator.

Only gamers will get that joke
