I was daily driving Pop_OS before my System76 finally gave it up. I mostly enjoyed the experience, but when my laptop gave it up, I had to run to a big box store and grab a replacement asap. I’m now riding an HP envy touch screen fliptop and (:puke:) windows 11....
I was interested in buying a Steam Deck… Until I discovered all the (apparently) better alternatives.

My main OS since Linux Mint 17.3, and still very happy with it. Switched from MacOS after a 10 year Apple stint and haven’t regretted it for even a second. My hardware needs were much cheaper if anything.
This is a potential spoiler, bit I am so enthusiastic about finally seeing my favorite Marvel character in his in universe suit after 24 years of Wolverine movies!

Daar gaat het dan ook helemaal niet om: goede antwoorden. Moeilijke vragen moeten gesteld kunnen worden zonder zo’n hissy-fit. Daar zijn reporters voor.
