It’s not about being helpful in the sense of just answering the question at hand. If OP just wanted the question answered they can just Google it. Instead I wanted to offer an alternative, low risk solution.
While Ubisoft, EA and consorts can easily stomach some piracy and still crank out “AAA” titles in a 6-months interval, it hurts small studios relatively more. Buying and returning, on the other hand, offers a way to give feedback to the studio via the return reason and costs just as little as piracy.
I’m not saying it was always the case. Back when ads were just images hosted on the same machine as the rest of the page they were only annoying.
But nowadays even so-called acceptable ads are delivered by third-party servers. So suddenly you have to trust not only the operator of the page you’re visiting but also any advertising partners they use. And since all modern advertising uses a gazillion of metrics that necessitates JavaScript you end up executing code that neither you nor the page operator have any actual need for nor influence on, hoping that the ad network has some sort of vetting process so they don’t end up unwittingly delivering malware.
That’s a tall order in my opinion.
ProtonDB says it’s decent, the game is Steamdeck verified plus you can return it with under two hours playtime, so I’d just buy it.
Any upgrade path with a pirated version should be completely irrelevant.
All ads are a cybersecurity risk, not just the targeted ones. The targeted ones just offer new and exciting vectors.
Yup. You can pay Netflix for 4K, but you can only get 4K with Edge on Windows and even then only if you have the right hardware. Like, what’s the point? On Linux you can only get 1080p by spoofing your just agent. Otherwise they only give you 720p.
Yea, that’s just plain stupid of them. I don’t know how they expected that to go over.
Oh yes, I bought that content, but sure, take it away. I totally understand that the licensing changed.

Buy it. Larian is a small studio that put a lot of effort and love into that game. If you like what they do, support them. You can get it DRM free on GOG, so you get to actually own it.
To be fair, streaming was never buying. It was always paying entry to a library. If stuff gets removed from the library that’s the way it is.
That isn’t to say I don’t agree. Piracy is a service problem, as Gabe Newell so eloquently put it. Streaming started losing the moment it started splintering into cable networks.
But you’re running Debian, so it’ll be 2 years at least before you get it.
Yes, but consider ownership.

What’s wrong with taxi services?
From a client perspective Uber and Lyft don’t solve any issue that taxi services don’t. They may be more convenient/accessible by providing an app, but that’s not an unsolvable issue.
But from a privacy perspective taxis clearly have a leg up since you’re an anonymous customer.
Maybe it’s time we give up on computers. We’re simply not good with them. Or maybe it’s just time to oxidise all the software.
pavucontrol
probably the best option given your distro. Go with that.
That’s an efficiency factor of 4 right there. The design is likely limited by the surface area. If they manage to squeeze a heatsink in that will increase the capacity for heat removal.
Been keeping an eye on that tech for a while. Looks very interesting for laptops and graphics cards.
Ain’t that the truth. But I love the workflow they offer. You don’t have to go looking for new windows. You can easily pin applications to virtual desktops and I prefer the multihead model they use over the one used by gnome or KDE.
So we have to piece information together from the manual and random blogs? Like cavemen? Or worse, like Windows users??
Yea, people mostly equate email to an electronic letter, but it’s more like an electronic postcard. Anyone handling it can simply read it.
So you’ll want encryption, too. So either you get everyone to use PGP/GPG or get them to use a privacy-by-default provider.
Good luck with the first option and I’m not sure how interoperable the various providers are, so in the worst case you’d have to rally everyone to the same provider.
