Doesn't hurt to try. I weened myself off Windows by using linux every single day and fiddling around for a few hours. Eventually it just clicked and i very rarely boot up Windows nowadays for apps that will not run on linux. Good luck!

Sure, their service can stream VR "over the cloud", but come on. With the added latency I don't see this being useful for anything other than watching a movie over VD. What kind of games wouldn't make you violently sick if you plopped additional 30ms or more on top of the already existing encoding/decoding/networking delay? Is this an ad?

So, you substituted fuck with fsck in a very hostile phrase and are surprised people get the wrong impression? People misreading your username is not the issue here.

omg! I had this same exact shit happen when I tried to delete the game folder for a game pass game. I spent literal hours escalating permissions, shifting ownership around and banging my head against the desk. Nothing from within Windows allowed me to gain sufficient power to delete that folder. That made me realize I didn't own the computer I was using, Microsoft did. Live-cd booting into Ubuntu made for a quick resolution, though.

Man, I miss the banners. That was good wave of nostalgia.

If only there was a way to provide a video stream to the TV without the internet! We'd be saved!

Factorio is one of the few games that cause the Tetris Effect for me.

Ah yes, I would totally want to give my valid phone number out to randos around the world. I don't even know what the premium features of Telegram are, but I don't think they're worth the risk.

Maybe. But I just want syrup for my pancakes.

I had issues with a new version of glibc that prevented me from working on music in Ardour on Manjaro. I then proceeded to force-downgrade glibc (in the hopes of letting me get back to work) and that broke sudo and some other things, which I found out after rebooting. That was an interesting learning experience. Now I snapshot before I do stupid stuff. :]

Honestly, we should have a feature to just block an instance outright.
