Sample size of one here - I am on EndeavourOS and have an Nvidia card. I had issues with KDE and with Cinnamon (weird UI hiccups). Switched over to Hyprland and haven't had those issues since (I did have a TON of issues when Hyprland updated from .52 to .53) and also don't recommend Hyprland setup for a new user, but just wanted to share my experience here.

I also tried Niri but had issues getting steam games to launch - I plan to revisit it in a year or so to see if anything changes. I found videos/reviews where some folks were saying they could game with no problem so it might be a skill issue on my part.

The install experience with EOS was totally painless and I'll likely continue to use it on future PC builds (if ram prices ever come down). Looking forward to switching everything to AMD one day.

I installed Fedora on my wife's PC and she hasn't had any issues at all (her build is totally AMD). I hate to say it but the answer is likely "it depends" based on how you will use your machine and what hardware you've got). Might be easiest to go with Zorin or Mint as mentioned in one of the top comments.

Right, which is why I thought it was weird there was an article being published about it and assumed it was untimely drivel since the game was released in 2022. Again, it didn't make sense to me as posted and I had to click into the article to sort it out.

All that to say, it wasn't abundantly clear to me just based on the title of the post.

That the game "overwatch 2" is just a re-hash of the original "overwatch" game - not that it was renamed to be "overwatch"

I also had a hard time reading the post title, still think it's idiotic, but now it makes more sense to me. I couldn't understand what the original post title was trying to say.

But thankfully with no Elon

30 minutes a day for a lifetime of feeling healthy and unlocking the opportunity to live a longer life... Also endorphins are a thing.

This is a perspective that I'm likely too exercise-pilled to understand.

As soon as Constantine saw the bag, he knew that he had wasted his time. The bag was flat, and no blood seeped from it. It clearly didn’t contain the prisoner’s head.

But the expression on Phrantzes’s face wasn’t one of disappointment. Rather, he looked distracted, confused, as though he was walking while dreaming.

“She hasn’t retrieved what we wanted, has she?” the emperor asked.

Phrantzes took the bag from Helena, placed it on the emperor’s desk, and opened it. He stared at the emperor as though he was looking at a ghost. “She almost did.”

The emperor looked inside the bag. Something grayish and soft was nestled on the bottom, like old mutton suet. Phrantzes moved the candelabra closer.

“It’s the brain of that Anatolian.”

“She cut open his skull?” Constantine glanced at Helena. She trembled in her cloak like a frightened mouse.

“No, the corpse of the prisoner appeared intact. I had twenty men observe him, five men per watch, keeping him in their sight from different angles. The guards at the cellar door were also on extra alert; not even a mosquito could have entered the space.” Phrantzes paused, as though stricken by his own memories.

The emperor nodded at him to continue.

“Two hours after she left, the prisoner went into sudden convulsions and fell down dead. Among the observers at the scene were an experienced Greek doctor and veterans of many battles—none could recall anyone dying in this particular manner. An hour later, she returned and showed them this bag. The Greek doctor then cut open the corpse’s skull. It was empty.”

The word is way overused in headlines nowadays

Gonna be real with you - I don't believe that this was an aggravated assault per the FBI's claim. My assumption is that border patrol/ICE straight up shot this guy because they wanted target practice. I will not change my mind until I see body cam footage of the ICE officer being actively assaulted to prove that they were actually defending themselves.

So is this a non issue because it wasn't recorded from 4 different angles? Or is the issue here that a Hispanic person was shot so nobody cares?
