They published a big release just a month ago, so I guess?

Just register their contact information to spam services, like any sane person would do.

That sounds just like taxes, but with extra steps.

And that’s how many AAA are failing.

The indexing and search need improvement.

Police officer, removing the robber mask: “So, Scooby was actually Robber65 all along”. Robber65: " And I would I have gotten away with it, if it wasn’t for those pesky memes on the internet".

Didn’t Google Stadia do the cloud thing and failed miserably?

For now.

Will my ability to play games be significantly affected compared to Windows?

It will be somewhat affected, but most games can be played via wine/proton.

Can I mod games as freely and as easily as I do on Windows?

Depends on the game and mods? Some games like Minecraft can run and be modded natively in Linux.

If a program has no Linux version, is it unusable, or are there workarounds?

Again, there is wine/proton for that.

Can Linux run programs that rely on frameworks like .NET or other Windows-specific libraries?

If I remember correctly, you can install .NET, DirectX and so on in wine.

How do OS updates work in Linux? Is there a “Linux Update” program like what Windows has?

You are going to love updates coming from Windows. Basically you run your package manager update command and everything is taken care of.

How does digital security work on Linux? Is it more vulnerable due to being open source? Is there integrated antivirus software, or will I have to source that myself?

I’m no security expert, but the consensus is that it’s more secure. I’ll leave it to more competent people to explain.

Are GPU drivers reliable on Linux?

Depends. NVIDIA used to be annoying to manage.

Can Linux (in the case of a misconfiguration or serious failure) potentially damage hardware?

About this, I have no idea.

And also, what distro might be best for me?

I have seen Linux Mint often suggested to new users, but picking a distro is a topic that deserves a whole new post.

How many scalpers, also?

Clickbait-ish title, the prosthesis is not “mind controlled” but uses wireless electrodes that record muscle contraction. Cool tech, though.

How does Mint work with (old) NVIDIA drivers? I’m going to have to do the switch sometime this year and I am still debating which distro would give me the least troubles running games and applications via Proton / Wine.

Maybe a factory reset

Remember they got a patent for catching monsters using balls just to start a lawsuit against Palworld, and if my memory doesn’t fail me, they tried to patent some stupidly base mechanic in Zelda TotK (like using local coordinates for constructs).

I’m not sure they wouldn’t try to get a patent for the concept of “handheld gaming console” because they came up with the Game Boy.

OneNote for office 2016 was a brilliant piece of software (for once). Then they gutted it out, moved it to the cloud and forced you to use the crappy win10 version.

That’s more or less the time I switched my notes to Notion (first), then to Obsidian.

Because people don’t use discord for privacy. They use it for gaming, voice chat, communities and streaming.

Artificial, animal-like ears Other physiological features that have not historically been assigned to the human race through a means of natural biological development

Great outrage in the anime community following catgirls ban.

I saw the onion logo and thought “heh, that’s funny”. Then I re-read the name of the community…

Minigolf is the superior and family-friendly alternative to golf, TBH.

It’s not a threat from within, when you have blatantly switched sides and are on the “outside”.
