The only game I have ever played is FIFA on a PS4. Now I have a gaming laptop but have no idea how I should go about playing games on Linux. Appreciate your help in advance!
I have been thinking about self-hosting my personal photos on my linux server. After the recent backdoor was detected I’m more hesitant to do so especially because i’m no security expert and don’t have the time and knowledge to audit my server. All I’ve done so far is disabling password logins and changing the ssh port....
Very good points. Call me paranoid but i always fear I might fail to notice the symptoms of something nasty going on. I wish linux had a built-in, easy-to-use auditing/alerting system. I know this can be achived by experts but others have no idea what’s actually going on on their machines.

I’ve installed TLP on my Lenovo ThinkBook laptop and was wondering if there are additional steps I can take to extend the battery life when using the laptop unplugged....
I’ve never had a laptop that hibernates correctly with Linux. Is it something I can achieve with more research or some laptops won’t hibernate anyway? I routinely have that shitty experience when I pick up my laptop to see it has no juice left although I didn’t use it and it was apparently asleep.
That’s very interesting. I thought that intel Wi-Fi cards can’t do AP mode anywhere. I had no luck on ubuntu and openwrt. Didn’t know Windows could help. I’ll try to build a Windows VM with passthrough.
I've never played games. Suggest a couple of addictive games I can play on Linux
