What a lot of people fail to realize is that the whole industry is based on selling a fantasy. It's no different then getting the girl friend experience from a prostitute. I don't think there's a meaningful difference between a real person and an AI in these industries.

IMO it's only a problem when the customer doesn't understand that they're buying an illusion.

I'm having a similar issue. Every time I try to update, it says there are no new updates even though I see additional updates listed. I'm not sure if it's the result of a delay in release or if my tag got expired and I need to do a rebase to fix the issue.

Star Trek Enterprise explains that it involves medical intervention to allow interbreeding between species. I've always assumed that's what was going on for everyone.

I find it amazing how so many bad things in America can be traced back to Reagan.

I switched to Bazzite for my new gaming PC and it's worked great without any major issues.

The only problem I have is that I'm still not sure how to install software that isn't through flatpak or package layering.

I'm pretty much the same as you. A lifelong Windows user who got fed up with the direction windows is going. I just recently switched to Linux for my new gaming PC and I haven't had any major issues. The only thing I still haven't figured out how to do yet is modding.

As for which distro to use, I would recommend something that comes with the graphics drivers already installed to reduce any initial setup difficulty.

I use Bazzite on my machine. It's a Linux gaming distro which comes with all the stuff you'll need to get right into gaming. It's an immutable distro so it's pretty difficult to really mess it up but it also makes things a bit more difficult to install anything that isn't a flatpak.
