You’re thinking in reverse. Walled gardens keep you in, not out. Without logging into your Steam account (pretending you don’t have one), try to download a mod for a game you bought on GOG and see how it goes for you.

This is silly. Valve is already a profit driven company. You don’t see the walled garden? The DRM? Valve supports proton because it’s in their monetary interest to do so.
Disclaimer: I’m incredibly ignorant. Wouldn’t wireless necessarily mean high-latency?
It does not run well. You can’t see the performance difference between KDE and XFCE on neofetch, but you absolutely can on on old machine.

Mabox!
Enable the chaotic AUR and you won’t even have to build from source.
Thank you for providing an actual answer. Most of the comments in this thread are condescending as hell.
This is a popular opinion outside of Lemmy. You won’t find many lowercase “l” libertarians here though.
How important is the Windows-style desktop? If the VM is designed for one thing and one thing only, I’d pick any minimal WM that can alt-tab, say JWM, and then just add Firefox and Thunderbird to the autostart file.
Having seen a total eclipse before, I know solar eclipses are in danger of being overhyped. IMO, they probably aren’t worth driving across the country. But if all you need is a 3 to 5 hour drive to get to the path of totality, I think you should absolutely do it. They’re legit. Not, like, life changing, but legit. Find a place with a few trees so you can watch the crescent shadows and maybe hear some wildlife freak out.
Either scalloped with cheese, boiled in chicken broth until the broth boils off and the potatoes are basically already mashed for you, or my laptop.
I’m shocked Lemmy has so many users. Feels like only a few thousand.
Ultra-libertarian Jingoist? I’m as confused by that combination of words as I am the flags on the truck.
Give me an archive link and I’ll click it every time. Otherwise, almost never.
Wait, most people agree that Walter starts off as a decent man?
But… the abuse is literally baked into my original comment. DRM. DRM is the abuse. Just because you’re used to it doesn’t mean that it was ever ok.
Valve is a company whose profit model is based on DRM. They were never your friend. Thanks for proton, though.
He also got the level 155 crash today. Second person to ever beat the game.
I disagree. I think it’s inevitable. They already have the final hundred levels mapped out, and there are long stretches that are completely safe. The challenge will be levels where you can’t take singles and also the levels where you have to push down on every piece, but compared to what’s already been accomplished, it’s only a matter of time.
I don’t hate flatpaks, but flatpaks require more disk space than the same apps from traditional repositories, and they only support a handful of the most common default themes. Since I only ever use older and slower computers, my disk space is limited, and I like to rice my desktop, I personally avoid them. But your use-case may differ.
