Of course it's done intentionally so you have to buy a new motherboard. Stick with AMD if you want to be able to upgrade your CPU.

It's called punycode. It's just a way of encoding non ASCII characters in a URL.

Lutris uses separate prefixes and doesn't do any deduplication. You will need a separate tool for that or just use a filesystem like btrfs that supports deduplication.

I've never used bottles, so I don't know how it handles deduplication.

Tell them how much power the TV and radio broadcast towers put out and watch them freak out. The analog TV stations ran even higher power than the digital ones do now.

No, you can copy wine prefixes around all you want. You may have to adjust the graphics settings in the games though.

Movies are not sold on recordable media, they are sold on pressed discs. There are a lot more manufacturers than just Sony too.

X11 isn’t secure and it can’t be fixed apparently

Which is why so much work has been going into Wayland, which will replace X11.

I see an LG WH14NS40 on amazon for $55 US that will write triple layer discs. Where are you finding $130 drives?

Blurays will be much more reliable and will write much faster than cheap flash drives. A double layer disc only holds 46.5 GiB though and triple layer discs are still somewhat expensive.

Skyrim and Fallout 4 really need a CPU with very good single threaded performance. If you have a lot of cores, make sure nothing is running in the background so you can get a higher boost speed on the cores the game is using.

OK, now ban bootloader locking next.
