any recent laptop (or even older stuff) would work pretty well with linux. just make sure that you can have access to the BIOS or UEFI. I personally like AMD hardware, but Intel and Nvidia work just as well.

if you can afford it, System 76, Framework, or other linux first manufacturers are nice, but otherwise any normal laptop should work.

If you're bringing it to school, consider the weight and size, also the backpack you'll put it in. Big screen is good, but more annoying to carry around. I have a tiny 13" that I bring between home and work, which works great, because apart from meetings, I never actually use the screen. Might consider the keyboard too, but unless you go apple, I feel like laptop keyboards are always gonna be "eh"

Guild Wars 2 works without issue, though if that''s specifically what you want to play, Guild Wars 2 works better with a good CPU and an SSD, whereas the GPU would be good but doesn't need to be great. That of course depends game per game, just I know that Guild Wars 2 specifically relies a lot on the CPU, and without a SSD it will stutter.

most of those also have been recreated on raddle, which has been fun. I'm not sure how I can click on the new forums though

I hope that can be Bethesda improving, would be really nice. but at the same time, having less bugs when you're knovn to have many many bugs shouldn't be too hard an improvement

so far it's really nice, it's what I liked in reddit and before that forums, without being what reddit became.

the fediverse is hard though, but it kinda makes sense. I'll see if I get more used to it

I've wanted that for so long, I hope they do more for making nice cities with people walking and cycling, trains and trams everywhere

I'm trying to learn Magic the Gathering on the steam deck, but damn I'm getting my butt kicked. If anyone knows how to learn it I'm all ears.

I have rainworld on my list to play next, for now I'm mostly on Tunic.
