This game has been free on Epic, free on GOG through Prime gaming, and free through gamepass. Does anyone know if they're counting those free claims as "sales"?

Gamepass isn't for me, but dual booting for it is understandable. But office? I've found LibreOffice and OnlyOffice are usually "good enough," and if you really need true MS Office, I believe they offer web editors now

Note this vid was part of a marketing campaign for the 2014 movie Into the Storm. Although part of me definitely wishes it were real

Considering Counter-Strike 2 completely dropped Mac support, I highly doubt it

I cannot find any info about this. Source?

400+, paid for 0. Won't give them a dime until Sweeney stops with his anti-linux shenanigans, and the "buying exclusivity" thing doesn't make me too happy either

Both Bitwarden and KeePass are very secure, certainly much better than something like Lastpass...

Bitwarden's server and client are open source and completely E2EE (similar to Signal, the server is zero-knowledge). And even if you don't trust Bitwarden's official server, you can host your own.

KeePass is fine too, but it doesn't have a centralized server like Bitwarden. You have to use other tools to sync your vault between devices. Which some people prefer, but others dislike. Just depends on your preference.

Well, wallet and needs. The 7900XTX is the best, but I'd never recommend it to someone who only plays decade-old games, or even simpler modern games.

If you want a good idea of how GPUs compare to each other, the Tom's Hardware GPU hierarchy is a great source. Just keep in mind that on linux specifically, NVIDIA has a bit more of a performance drop compared to AMD. Comparing the 3090 and 6800XT on that chart vs. Tom's hardware, seems to be roughly 5%-7% more of a dip

Helldivers 2's anti-cheat (nProtect GameGuard) is kernel-level on Windows, but has a userspace fallback for linux

Edit: see this post

One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet is to try and build up a pavlovian association with bed/bedroom = sleep. Don't do any mentally stimulating tasks while in your bed or even bedroom - no TV or youtube, no mindless phone scrolling, no gaming, etc. Bedroom should be for sleep and sex, and that's it. If you cut everything else out for a while, your brain will much more strongly associate bed(room) with sleepytime.

Other things people have mentioned are valid too. Consistent sleep schedule, don't eat/drink/exercise for 2-3hrs before bed, etc.
