In my country you'd be locked up at a random moment of your stay. Tortured in prison, used as a trading chip in a complex web of international intrigue and diplomacy. Accused of terrorism. Paraded for political manipulation of the masses. Then unceremoniously put in a plane to Canada so US authorities can go pick you up. But it would be very nice and welcoming up to that point.

Replacing garbage with sewer water. Not exactly an improvement.

Bazzite comes with wine all setup by default. KDE's file managerl can integrate running exe with wine on a default prefix automatically.

Most distributions and DEs already package wine in a set it and forget it configuration. Wine by default has a system wide prefix such that clicking on any exe in the file system automatically runs it on the default prefix. This way of doing things predates wsl by a long time. It is just safer and better practice to setup a new prefix for every software, specially if they are games.

That's called false flag operation. Police or shock groups dress in the target group way to cause and instigate vandal behavior then justify a more violent counter action.

The Hunt for Red October is far more thrilling if not as realistic. The characters are far more unique and interesting, though jack Ryan and anything navy/CIA is just propaganda. At least it is fun to read propaganda.

Some linux installers will refuse to erase the bitlocker partition automatically. Then you have to manually erase it before running the installer.

This is the fuel underneath the 8 years long plot of Barry.

True that, the tri-core PowerPC is quite a unique challenging mess. But underneath it is just the same processor.

My biggest fear is that so far Nvidia has a track record of introducing regressions and new bugs with each new driver version. Just a week ago all my flatpaks weren't working on Wayland, again. It happens almost with every single update. Some games that are native or platinum randomly stop working and it takes several updates before they start working again. While on AMD everything just works all the time and regressions are solved in a day not weeks. It's just annoying.

If gaming is top priority. Go all amd, disregard Nvidia. AMD has extraordinary linux support and if it runs on the steam deck it will run on any all AMD machine.
