I don’t use their software suite – I can’t remember if it’s possible to get working on Linux, but when I used it on Windows I found it to be mostly a gimmick. I prefer the unfiltered audio.

The hardware is solid, but they’ve also got other options. I used to own an Arctis 5, which was also good. I think the drivers are just a bit higher quality in the Pro but I didn’t have sound quality complaints with the cheaper ones, they just failed after several years.

Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. My biggest recommendation for wireless though is just to avoid Bluetooth. Get something with its own dedicated base station. Not that Bluetooth doesn’t work with Linux, but it’s just not the best tech and introduces a lot of potential failure points.

The browsers implement the DRM protections. It will be black if you try to record.

Your brain is atrophying but get it man.

AI is just a worse version of rubber duck debugging. I guarantee you you will learn better, faster and more accurately by just reading the actual documentation.

In terms of the terminally online, yes, GamerGate was absolutely a critical point of radicalization of young males and the metastasis of far-right fascist thought. In the greater culture it was a blip, but it swayed a lot of guys who were previously either politically inactive or broadly liberal to pivot into misogyny and anti-woke conspiracy.

This isn’t particularly difficult to research – if you want primary sources it is, but there are a ton of video essays and other media exploring this exact phenomenon. For a perspective published as it was actively developing, I recommend this video by Folding Ideas.

Well that seems like a fairly big deal.

Wow no one’s said emacs yet

Have you ever used Linux?

You seem very misinformed so I’m just providing you with resources.

Getting hung up on feature parity with Windows and Mac is both a waste of time and literally impossible given the major differences between those two UIs. KDE already does most of that legwork anyway, and you can disable middle click paste easily.

IMO your time would be best spent making GUI tooling that doesn’t already exist. Identify a pain point for you that forces you to the terminal and start there.

Is it a conscious decision if it’s the only employment you can secure? The system we live under is designed precisely to coerce people into work that they otherwise wouldn’t do under threat of starvation. There’s a reason army recruiters go to poor schools.

Okay well if they were $6 I would have mentioned that. They’re not, they’re like $2.

On many distros it is.

Sure but by this logic every person who has paid taxes to the US, or imported things from the US, is culpable to a degree in war crimes. Is it kind of true? Yes. Is it a useful point? Not really, beyond pointing out the boundless capability of capital to abstract and distance its effects.

Lol I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you meant that gamescope would be difficult to get working under Bazzite’s immutable architecture.

You do realize gamescope is just a package you can install, right? Do you think it’s a unique feature of SteamOS or what?

There’s really no reason to use it on a general purpose desktop. It’s designed to basically make a PC into a console. You do still have full access to the (mostly) normal Linux system behind it, but it’s not something I’d use unless I was setting it up for someone who didn’t want to deal with any of the behind the scenes stuff.

CachyOS, Nobara, and Bazzite all should get you the same level of gaming support with more flexibility as a normal OS, and they can all run Steam Big Picture which is basically the SteamOS UI.
