I have very little experience with Arch. I ran Mint for a decade before coming to Fedora KDE for Wayland’s wider support for variable refresh rates and such.

A lot of my opinions on the matter have more to do with KDE vs Cinnamon. But as for Fedora vs Mint/Ubuntu/Debian, I have one major one: Software availability is nowhere near as good.

On Mint, a shit ton of stuff can be found in the APT repos, plus Flatpak is there. If the package you want isn’t in either of those two places, there’s probably an Ubuntu-style PPA (remember those?) or, if you’re resorting to downloading and compiling from Git, they always include Ubuntu instructions and they work.

On Fedora, the standard repos via DNF have half a moldy butt in them. They maintain their own Flatpak repository, and there’s Flathub. There have been a number of times where I’ve had to just give up having a piece of software I was used to because it’s not packaged for Fedora. Build instructions are rarely written for Red Hat/Fedora, and “Well I’ll just say DNF install instead of APT install” is usually “cannot find package.”

I’ll probably be moving on at some point, but it’s working for now.

Give Kingdom of Loathing a try.

Wood is sort of a composite material, made of cellulose fibers bound with a polymer called lignin.

Odd, I have split frames with polycarbonate lenses; the little strap around the bottom is plastic.

Tell you what customers absolutely can do: decide to stop doing business with you.

I’ve enjoyed the hell out of Buckshot Roulette. It’s about playing Russian Roulette. With a pump action shotgun. There’s power-ups!

It doesn’t sound like a medication’s marketing name, it sounds like the name of an open source project: a complete garbage fire.

LibreOffice runs on Windows and I think MacOS, I would install it there to try it out especially before jumping OSes.

LibreOffice, unto itself, is fine. There’s an alternate universe where we’re standardized around it instead of MS Office. The main issues you’re going to run into is working with people who use MS Office. LO’s compatibility with Microsoft’s formats is imperfect. If you’re collaborating on, say, a powerpoint presentation with classmates, expect LibreOffice Impress to mangle it.

I’ve been out of school for awhile now, and as an adult running a household it’s all the productivity suite I’ll ever need.

I’ll be honest here: Wanting to try out ElementaryOS “because it’s pretty” and having no experience with Linux…I foresee this ending badly and shortly. Something isn’t going to work exactly the way it does in Windows and a hissy fit will ensue. I recommend taking an image backup of her machine before installing Linux.

Fake news.

Not only on Switch 2. There was at least one Tony Hawk Pro Skater game that did this.

If I remember the episode of Guru Larry, the developer noticed their rights to the IP were set to expire, so they went to shit out one last game as fast as possible. They had to get the game published by a certain date, as in discs on store shelves by this date. The game was not going to be ready in time, so they put the tutorial level on the disc to print and distribute it while they finished the game, which would then be a multi-gigabyte download. Meaning that a physical copy of the game is worthless once the servers shut down.
