As a first time Linux user pretty much what should I use for gaming.
  • I’ll second Pop!_OS! Been using it as a daily driver since 2022 and have had a painless gaming experience the past year or so using lutris (league) and steam.

    I use an Amd cpu and a nvidia gpu, if that helps at all.

  • I've found that being direct, but polite works well enough.

    "Not to be rude, but I have to get this task done ASAP. Can we pick this up at another time? Thank you."

    You have five minutes to talk to your pets where they can fully understand every word you tell them. What do you say?
    1. You make every day brighter with your presence.
    2. I love you.
    3. Please don't lick your junk within earshot. It sounds gross.

    Laptop recommendations?
  • The 61W battery helps a bit. If I'm compiling binaries locally all day, it certainly tanks.

  • I think the fix for the phantom drain came with the newest refresh (gen 3); I don't notice a rapid drain when I sleep mine, though because I use the 'deep sleep' workaround.

    Laptop recommendations?
  • I have been using a Framework 13 (12th gen intel) since April and I love it. The only complaint is the battery life (5-8 hours of software development with JetBrains IDEs), but in terms of hardware performance, it's fantastic.

    I have an apartment where the dumpster is a car's drive away, and taking trash down involves 4 staircases. What is the best way to ameliorate this situation?
  • Making more frequent, smaller trips might make it less of a pain? Maybe stop by the dumpster if it's on the way to/from a daily route you need to take?

    How to prevent cats from shitting on my lawn?!?
  • Find the owner and tell them the cat is shitting on your property. If they tell you to pound sand, call city/county animal control to see what your options are. Alternatively, pick the shit up before your robot lawnmower runs it over.
