Statements like these sure as shit ain't gonna help your case. I've seen a few videos of the game and it looks just about the same as every other open world game - with mid graphics. Let me know when the game releases on pc and i can actually try it though.
As long as you keep using the console you're still in the walled garden: you're giving them data to harvest, being exposed to their ads, padding their MAU numbers... Server costs are negligible - it's what allows F2P to work as a monetization model.
The series was supposed to be an anthology but the show got very popular so instead of doing a soft reboot for season 2 they kept the cast, which created a lot of narrative problems. Anyways the show plodded along for 2 more seasons - which were actually ok - so the writers' strike wasn't that big of an issue.
I doubt NBC ever regretted continuing heroes, strangling your golden goose doesn't help anyone.
This is the reason i have a hard time recommending Fedora to new users, they can't even play youtube videos until they've pulled in rpmfusion and ffmpeg.
CachyOS is not a gaming distro, it is a performance distro, and this is from the mouth of its own developers. Everybody thinks their scheduler is the best - there's probably a meme about it somewhere, you'd probably get more aggressive scheduling with gamemode than regular cachy because gamemode expects you to be playing a game when you use it... and fyi gamemode is used by default in applications like lutris.
SteamOS is a desktop distribution now, that means full compatibility - at least once they start supporting nvidia. Maybe when they supported only the steam deck they could afford some targeted optimizations, but the more systems start running SteamOS the wider the target will have to become.
CachyOS is most definitely not "as close as it gets" to SteamOS. Cachy is performance driven whereas SteamOs much like Bazzite is compatibility driven. Valve's main goal is for their distribution to run on everything, performance is a low priority.
better scheduler
That's not a thing, the words you're looking for are "scheduler optimized for gaming at the cost of performance in other domains like power consumption", you also don't need it because common programs like gamemode already do this.
It's typically not a good idea to install a DE that is not supported by your distribution, Mint just repackages upstream gnome - is it ubuntu's vanilla gnome or debian's btw? Either way you're just ending up with an old ass GNOME package that's untested on your distro.
If you're interested in GNOME get a distro that ships it and supports it, which is pretty much all of them minus Mint.
This kind of things is handled directly at an engine or toolkit level - so no your average developer won't give a fuck. And for those that are reinventing the wheel there's libdecor (official gnome support btw) which your factorio developer is using.
The change is because of the shift to streaming, people can watch the shows whenever they want so things like status quo and always being on air are less important than having a narrative and strong episodes. Yes labor protections and the rest are important but even these days plenty of shows like soaps manage 20+ episodes - the difference is that they're aimed at a tv audience.
Plus game is free so it’s not like they’re actively getting money from me
They might not be getting money from you, but they're getting a lot of other things like harvesting your data, advertising (like this thread)... Always remember that free to play is a business model, not a charity.
Just like every project, you engage with it only as much as you want to. You can just use the arch install script, update pacman every couple of weeks and stop there.
If you like to mod games you'll probably want arch linux as it's heavily modular - you choose everything. You can use the archinstall script to get you setup or follow the installation guide.
The solution here has never been to keep producing disks, what we need is proper digital ownership laws that let you resell game keys and force stores like steam to disentangle them from your account.
Yeah i know about emulation, me not playing it is more about them fostering a closed platform.

If they have any money left... RTS games aren't exactly a safe bet these days.

I didn't get it either till i read your comment... for those still in the dark it's about

There's like dozens of ways to open a lock without the proper key, it's probably not the best comparison...
Pretty much every platform is both, except linux maybe.

It speaks to your willingness and eagerness to tinker with your systems, that's pretty much arch's core audience.

It's not, physical sales have been dwindling in general, although part of the reason for that is the push towards digital.
