Have you ever used Linux?

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

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope

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.

On many distros it is.

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.

They’re designed to run constantly, and your GPU is designed to run with some heat. I highly doubt you’re maxing out either like you would with a demanding game. Fans are much cheaper than a new separate device, and your GPU will become outdated long before it dies to wear and tear.

Literally all of the arguments in this post apply equally to people freshly out of high school, except that most of them won’t have well-paying jobs already. But then again, if an adult has a well-paying job why are they thinking about going back to school?

Why will using your PC “run it into the ground”? Unless you’re trying to use it for something else simultaneously, it seems like you’ve already got a solution there.

To be fair trial and error and RNG are just par for the course with classic roguelikes, but learning how to manage all that is part of the appeal. Nethack and Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup are probably the two best-supported old classic roguelikes out there. Honorable mentions for Dwarf Fortress, which basically abandoned its roguelike mode in favor of a fortress simulator, and UnReal world, which is a weird outdoor primitive survival game that’s a testament to one man’s obsession.

There are also more modern offerings like Tales of Maj’Eyal, Caves of QUD, and Dungeons of Dredmor that are fully faithful roguelikes with either more modern graphics or QOL upgrades.

Started playing Spelunky HD again the other day, the sequel is better but the original is still fun to revisit.

Morrowind and Fallout: New Vegas sometimes. I’ve tried playing the original two Fallout games but I keep bouncing off the first hour or two.

Some Guilty Gear XX AC+R with a friend – we would love to play some old Tekken games too but we’re both on PC so Tekken 7 is the oldest available.

Every once in a while I’ll play some Sacrifice, such an amazing game that’s dying for a remaster.

You know it’s explicitly not “free as in beer” right?

Big one is just walk more. If there’s anything near your house that you regularly drive to, start trying to walk there as much as possible.

I have a lot of trouble motivating for the gym and similar self-directed activities, so I find classes or semi-organized sports much easier to do consistently.

Actual copyleft licenses like the GPL are analogous to leftists (the name might be a clue); they actually care about protecting the rights of the little guy.

“Permissive” licenses are analogous to liberals and/or ancaps. Arguably better than the corps/fascists, but willing to compromise with them to the point that most of their moral high ground erodes.

In addition to the other options here, Tauon is a solid GUI music player.

Actual paid services? Basically only Steam.

FOSS is the only software you can count on to not start nickel and diming you once the subscriber count starts to level out.
