This is specific to my old neighborhood:

It goes to a small hub, looked like a small green stantion/pillar, that connects the nearby houses. My old home’s was in my backyard, at one point I saw about 6 other runs for neighbors.

Then that hub, with bigger/more cables, connects to a larger hub. This was in the middle of my neighborhood by the school, and it was a quite large green box, probably 6ft tall.

From there I didn’t know where it went, but same concepts apply. That would go to an even larger hub, connecting multiple neighborhoods. Depending on your area and ISP, eventually they hit an end point your ISP manages which is probably a big building where they’re “connected to the rest of the internet.”

Manjaro was worse when I tried it a few times. I’d steer clear of it.

You require additional lesbian gas.

Ubuntu 6.06 I always come back to Arch now-a-days.

I still want a combo shoe of soap shoes + heelies. I think someone makes a kit to make your own heelies.

Do Bazzite. It will be unbeatable for just working and ease of use.

Stay away from Manjaro for anything.

SteamOS that Valve offers is not the same as what’s on the Steam Deck. It’s extremely dated and is what it used to be. A real distro from Valve has yet to be released.

The best way to install WoW is using Lutris, which also comes with Bazzite. You search for and install Battle.net, then you can install WoW normally. Lutris can also add a WoW shortcut once WoW is installed, too.

You can also just copy and paste the WoW folder from your Windows Program Files folder. It keeps all your settings and addons.

For addons use Wowup-curse. It’s a open source addon manager that is just straight up better than all others.

Currently, WoW needs Proton-GE to work. Using wine-staging, or the dated wine-ge, and Battle.net will have problems starting. It’s something weird with authentication and connecting online. Proton-GE contains a patch specifically for this.

The easiest way to get Proton-GE is using Protonup-Qt if using KDE plasma, or Proton Plus if you’re using Gnome. For Protonup-QT, you select Steam, then install Proton-GE for Steam. Lutris will also be able to use it.

Just general advice, I’d use the latest Proton-GE as the default for all Steam games.

In Lutris set the runner for Battle.net to Proton-GE.

Source: I’ve tried all but Drauger OS, and currently play retail WoW.

Its anticheat is proper server sided.

So this is why multi monitor support has been a never ending hot mess?!

I sincerely hope LoL never shuts down, because then all those players will have to go to some other game.

Thats crazy you experience this. I have like 1500 hours in SoT, and it’s Rare (pun intended) to even hear other crews use voice chat. I can’t remember the last time someone was toxic. My only gripe is their servers suck sooooooooo much ass, I legit don’t think they have a single employee that knows how fix it.

Do you do open crew?

Seconded. You subscribe to channels you like, and your feed is just the newest videos first. Plus built in sponser block.

Same, with their current 14 beta.

IIRC MPV can be configured to play HDR video as SDR, and you set the .conf things like quality and standard to what you want.

Just look up W10 LTSC. Shouldn’t bug you with upgrades, and has a few more years support.

There’s a systemd OOM service that can be setup. I use CachyOS and they have it as a checkbox to turn it on or off.

All my friends remember when by about +/-3 days. Every year I invite everyone to meet for food and drinks one night.

Retail has become a very tiring roller coaster. Season by season things shift wildly from mega fun, to dog shit. And it makes no sense. The WoW team has to have all the metrics on what people like and don’t like, yet they’ll go double down and try something that was universally hated just 1-2 years ago. The biggest is when they cater to casual players, everyone loves it. So 1-2 seasons later they cater to the hardcore and everyone leaves and the game sucks.

I’ve run it on and off for about 6 months. Just switched to it as daily driver. Absolutely love it. Arch but with automatic x64v3/4, including Wine & Proton?! Sign me up. Which is installed with an fantastic gaming meta package, and I regularly get ~10% FPS boost. Excellent default kernel, too.

Correct, for Linux atm it’s mainly app image only for v3 versions.

Edit: for anyone using any app images, I highly recommend Gear Lever to manage them, including updates.
