From your list I ran the following:

• Bazzite: worked AMAZINGLY (to the point of me double-checking whether I’m getting any updates 😆) until some image screwed up the boot process (some versions I could boot into, some were crapping out right after GRUB). Can recommend if you have a relatively normal hardware configuration (so, as long as your machine is not a Clevo-reseller laptop with NVIDIA GPU and Intel CPU, you should be fine).
  • Addendum: some binaries might not be available for you OOTB due to Bazzite’s root filesystem being immutable. Read their docs on how to run packages / binaries that do require root access (or learn basics of self-hosting, I guess…?).
• Nobara: FUBAR’d it myself through… Well, being an idiot (had SOME regrets about that 😅); ran into some small issues with GPG keys, but otherwise used it w/o any major problems (see above) for… I think a year with some change? Can wholeheartedly recommend it, as long as you’re somewhat familiar with what RPM packages are and how to work around issues with their signatures (usually - a trivial matter); updates are not as smooth as on Bazzite.
• CachyOS: my current daily driver. Barring some extremely minor issues in some games (usually solvable through Proton options- and versions fiddling), as was the case with Nobara - can wholeheartedly recommend it (this time, without caveats; despite the memery around Arch, it feels stable; the updates by default are a bit more annoying than on Bazzite though, similar in nature to Nobara: you get a notification “X packages have updates”).

Not really, at least in the books; the movies cut out quite a bit of what was happening after the One Ring was destroyed

Ah, the classical “just introduce tests in a legacy codebase”, what can go wrong?

My condolences, it’s always a BITCH to handle

I distro-hopped from Bazzite to CachyOS recently, and frankly - I’m not surprised it’s up there in terms of popularity. While Bazzite was much less obtrusive with updates (hell, I had to check whether I was getting amy 😆), CachyOS makes due with a lot less resources (Bazzite’s 6 vs Cachy’s 3.5GBs of RAM on stand-by, don’t remember the installation size, tbh) than Bazzite.

It also has a relatively sensible default when it comes to updates, as it automatically performs BTRFS snapshots through snapper, Tumbleweed-style.

Time will tell if it’s as stable as Bazzite was (though frankly, I distro-hopped because 3 or 4 straight updates were not booting for me 😅).

Tl;dr: Arch base + sensible defaults make for good selling points on gaming rigs.

‘Czkawka’ = ‘Hiccup’ in Polish. As to why he’s there - iunno, ask the devs 😅

I think not. Iirc, blocks have to be set perpendicularily on each floor. It’s not the case here.

There might be some other rules being violated, but I haven’t played Jenga for… A very long time 😄

Yeah, it was just way too much “in your face”. Ppl said it was a great, thought-provoking parody, all I saw was a tryhard attempt at forcing through a rather bad attempt at that

Don’t look up was that movie for me. Almost everyone praised it to high heavens, with me smirking at maybe 2 lines / scenes throughout that entire slog.

Each to his own, I guess…

Gun in my ass

Never bothered with Queen of Cards quest, as the walkthrough of that is… Sizable, to say the least. Also, there’s only one relatively decent reward out of it (Doomtrain).

As for CC: they are a source of all rare cards besides the ones Queen has. Thus, if you want to have Vit/Str/HP Ups - they’re your best bet (also, getting enough of those makes Omega Weapon fight a breeze, you can reliably kill it without ever reaching Megido Flame and foregoing Holy War usage).

But yeah… Triple Triad is fun, especially since it translates to sth that will impact your game.

EDIT: also, you can get 3x100 Flare on your entire party on the first disc, but it’s a major PITA to get (iirc, 300 Red Dragon cards, so good fuckin’ luck). So yeah… Triple Triad brekas the game if you have the patience for it 😄

EDIT 2: also also, Queen of Cards is available at the crash site on Disc 3 as well

It’s… Not? Anger is a response to you feeling wronged by someone or something. In the case of the article, dude prolly felt entitled to that spot. Was it dumb? Of course. Was it due to fear of anything? I’d wager a guess that it wasn’t

It’s the exact inverse; therapy is a tool for learning how to deal with your deficiencies, while relationships are there for having loved ones you can be intimate with

GL with Napoli-style pizza w/o one though

Daily-driving Nobara with NVIDIA, (almost) no issues whatsoever here.

Granted, I ain’t the person you responded to and it’s anecdotal, but… Yeah 😅

Weird. On one hand, everything is dandy. On the other… Self-hatred is simply weighing down on me and while I know I have to work on it, it’s been 2-steps-forward-1.5-steps-back type of deal.

Human psyche is fucked up. You can have everything you might need, be as successful as you can be, but if there’s anything gnawing at you, no matter how small it might be, it will murderfuck you to the deepest pits of mental hell

Goodbye

Well, technically, they’re 3rd party problems. But I get your point about seeing this from the end-user perspective.

And yeah, it’s DEFINITELY not fair

Seconding k3d (and, by extension, k3s). If you’re in a market for sth suitable for more upstream-compliant clustering solution (k3s uses SQLite instead of etcd, iirc), RKE2 is also a great choice

Mnemic -> Anemic
