It’s the thing you only tell your “ride-or-die bitch” server.

“In IT” could mean anything from first line support worker to software project manager to network engineer. Can you be more specific…?
It feels like the crypto mining goldrush really changed the way GPU manufacturers view the market.
Presumably they wanted something a bit more thorough and clear than a table of numbers with no information besides:
These tests were done on various hardware running games, both old and new, with and without the new driver being active.
I’m going to try to take this in the spirit that it was provided, but you’re using a lot of "…"s, and a lot of implications that what I’m saying is obvious, for a person trying to provide earnest assistance. I wasn’t requesting technical support or expressing surprise at these things, I was merely expressing that these were the things I was generally encountering difficulty with my transition to Linux as a daily driver.
The DisplayLink driver for instance is running, and basically functional, but ends up running slowly, with distortions, and instability. It also isn’t signed, so my plan to still run Secure Boot with the distro I’m using alongside Windows is out (without a lot of faff), but that largely won’t matter excusing some specific work setups that I don’t currently have to worry about. Having useful AMD specific driver level tools on Windows that don’t exist in Linux isn’t a surprise, it is a discouragement.
Forum content and non-Reddit content are a pain to locate, especially when you don’t know how to frame your problem in Linux syntax, as you say. Communities are either open but in specific places that I will never find without already knowing about it, or happening in places that aren’t accessible without having already joined, like the Discord of the specific software I need guidance on. My experience has been that there is basic info and there is advanced info out there, but intermediate info that lets you bridge the gap is a challenge to locate, especially with subtle differences in certain steps that are distro/package manager specific. Yet I press on.
I’ll say it. Cats have bad work ethic.
I’m not having a great time with DisplayLink driver support, personally. Various applications I use with mixed levels of support too, along with missing out on Windows specific GPU features.
This has been my most successful round of Linux adoption, but there are still niggling issues and confusion. The biggest difficulty is that my accumulated support knowledge of like 20 years is useless and I am relearning basic issue identification and resolution processes.
The internet being a raging dumpster fire, support is kind of patchy on more niche topics. All the good, useful discussions are largely happening behind closed doors at this point on everyone’s Discords and whatnot.
Bitwarden is too functional and too affordable for me to really consider moving.
That’s the real sticking point for me, it is a problem for my desire to transition to Linux as a daily driver.
I’m on DietPi 9 and the latest version for Debian 12 is 1.17.1, sadly. Though I do see 1.19.1 is in testing as of today, according to Debian’s package tracker site. Probably not worth trying to install an unstable version of it.
Easier to character create someone who you have more specific preferences over. Can’t really get as invested in how aesthetically pleasing my generic human bloke is, but I play more male non-human races.
Congratulations!
On a similar note, avoiding watching a guy’s butt wiggle for 20-40 hours.
This is where they once again find out that there just isn’t enough money in direct website video game journalism at this point.
PS5 is basically an early access version.
What a bizarrely corporate measure of quality this is… this is how you end up with mile wide, inch deep grind fests that just ooze "value" by pure volume. I think expecting this amount of content for $15 at this point just means that you can expect no content at all, because it won't be commercially viable to keep all your dev teams spun up to work on it, along with patches.
What is worth 30 dollars to you…? You said you'd have paid 15 for this, which is absurdly low in this day and age. A small expansion pack in the early 2000s would have cost more than that.
You want double the content in this DLC for 30?
The game runs the same or better on the hardware I have after the 2.0 patch. There are just more options to use, and thus the recommended has increased.
I remember having just the demo installed for the longest time and just playing that brief section of the game over and over. It was just so damn cinematic and awesome.
I’ve asked one question, one time in those comments and it just got buried in people spitting venom at each other about their file system preferences.
