  • I recently installed it on my gaming PC with an Nvidia GPU and AMD CPU. It was my first time with Linux and I was partitioning a drive to dual boot windows in case I screwed the whole thing up and needed a fall back. I hit a few speed bumps mostly due to lack of experience and the dual booting (stupid secure boot!).

    Beyond that my only issue so far has been an inability to get my VPN app running but since this is just a gaming PC that I don’t use for anything else I’ve just gone without the VPN. The Nvidia GPU has not really caused any problems for me so far to be honest.

    I’ve only tried two games so far, Cyberpunk so I could benchmark graphical performance against Windows, and Return to Moria because I wanted to test a cheap game that specifically says it’s not Steamdeck compatible. Both tests have been successful as far as I’m concerned. I will mention that I’m pretty exclusively a solo gamer and I’ve heard that people have had issues with trying to play Return to Moria with friends.


  • Ok, call it whatever you want, I’m not really into labels. For context I believe in universal basic income, socialized healthcare, prison as a tool for rehabilitation instead of punishment, strong government regulations for corporations, high speed Internet access as a state run utility, and a bunch of other stuff that I don’t feel like listing out.


  • Anecdotally this hasn’t been true for me. I spent my 20s barely getting by. In my 30s and early 40s I’ve had a series of lucky breaks that have enabled me to move into a much higher paying job resulting in luxuries like home ownership, retirement money etc. and if anything I’ve become more liberal.

    I also don’t have or want children so maybe that factors in?
