Memorisation isn’t the issue. I know their names and their relation to each other.
But unlike some birds I don’t simply see where North is.
I can make a rough estimate based on the position of the sun, if conditions allow.
But if I’m in the subway tunnels or just emerged I might as well spin in a circle and appoint a random direction North. It’s certainly not an intuition as it seems to be for some people.

The crontab starts Chrome in an environment without graphical frontend, so Chrome will refuse to start.
You’ll have to go through the DE’s autostart.

Play store is a shitshow. It’s so hard to spot the few actual gems in the absolute avalanche of ad-ridden asset flip time wasters that have the only goal of harvesting your data or running a monero miner in the background. The chances are better with paid games, but even then it’s hit-or-miss.
I gave up on mobile gaming long ago.

Only on geologic timescales, though, which requires special preservation, otherwise there won’t be any remains.

To be fair, depending on how the hummus is seasoned, that might work quite well.

Maybe. Every time I’ve looked into this so far I found it confusing enough to just go with a cable.

At least I can play games and get directional audio. Beyond that I care little how they achieve it.

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up. I’m still on the tether.

Exactly. You set up the virtual sink for 5.1 output and make pipewire convolute the signal with a suitable impulse response to turn it into a stereo signal that sounds like it’s coming from the correct direction. And yes, most games will output surround sound, given the option.

A few of things I’d look out for:

• Bluetooth protocol. Many Bluetooth headsets switch to a low-bandwidth but full-duplex mode when used as a headset. As a result you can hear and be heard at the same time, but at abysmal quality. Think old phone. You want a headset that supports at least AptX, which supports full-duplex communication at reasonable bandwidth and thus quality.
• Spatial audio. Don’t bother! It’s a non-issue that you can replicate in software, with the help of pipewire. I wouldn’t spend money on it.
• I’d stay away from proprietary 2.4GHz connectors and stick with plain Bluetooth, as that doesn’t require a specialised driver that possibly requires support from the vendor.

Completely agree. Ran Arch for about 10 years and had like three breakages that were all my fault (didn’t read news before a manual intervention. Once the battery died). But every time I could fix that by booting the current live image. No data loss.

It’s comparatively easy to not break things if you’re like ten years behind. 😉 But sure, Debian takes pride in its stability. I just like having recent versions of everything.

I mean, if you like knowing what your machine is doing, Arch is one of the best options.

Programmer moment.

Yarr harr fiddle de-dee…

Had that experience with Borderlands 3. Obviously it’s entirely possible that Borderlands 3 usage of DX12 is just borked in a way that affects Windows worse than Vulkan.
DXVK on Windows seems to be unsupported, but a thing nevertheless: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/mlfcsc/a_guide_to_dxvk_on_windows/

On Windows you may be right. A buddy I game with regularly has had trouble with DX12 games crashing randomly.
On Linux they run just fine and frequently perform better than DX11 on Linux or DX12 on Windows.

The only sport I found consistently entertaining so far is bouldering. Gym is boring af.

I think the word you’re looking for is “trustworthy” but yes.

Doc’s answer didn’t even matter.
“Doctor, may I disturb you for a moment?”
“Not right now, please.”
“Too late.”
“…”
