I tried out Bazzite on my Legion Go and was so impressed I immediately stopped distro hopping and installed it on my daily as well. Hardware wise everything works out of the box. It's based on Fedora Kinoite so it's quite well documented if you run into trouble or want to start doing weird shit. The few times I've had issues (mostly with flatpak sandboxing) they've been solvable with a quick web search.

Heliboard. Unfortunately it requires a bit too much setup to recommend to anyone who isn't tech savvy.

IIRC that means you're not far enough away from that system to sell the data.

Can't take it home, but I'm currently testing out the 3D printers at my local. They also have a 3D scanner.

I grew up in the '80s. I was expecting either nuclear annihilation or cities on the moon.

It's the fourth game in the X series. Originally named after the player's ship in the first game, the X-Shuttle. X being short for experimental.

Regarding "Foundations", from the Release Q&A

Why is the game called X4: Foundations?
Owen: I think some people get confused because of the two different uses of the word foundations. I think some people maybe think foundation like a corporation or a charity, while we're more thinking of the building foundation. Something we build off and what the races in the universe are building off. They're still recovering from all the gates shut down and they're finally getting on their feet.
Bernd: It's funny, how we choose names. It was not not long before the presentation actually that we had a long list of possible names and some people like some, but there was no name that everybody liked. Once that we found this name, everybody seemed to like it. Partially for different reasons. But what I like about the names for X-games is always that they leave some things to interpretation just like the X itself. If the game stands for anything, then it stands for the freedom and that the game can be different things for different people.

Mustard isn't a super common allergen AFAIK, but I have heard of it. I'm a little surprised they bother to mention celery, but people can be allergic to anything.

It makes no difference. With Mondays off, Tuesday becomes the new Monday. Fridays off means Thursday starts feeling like Friday.

Even if it isn't changing IP, you still want it in your DHCP table so that IP doesn't accidentally get assigned to something else. It's unlikely on a small network but it can happen.

 

I'm pretty deadset on switching my Legion Go over to Bazzite (for the controller support). One of the games I play a lot of is Elite Dangerous. While I'm quite sure I can get that up and running, there's a few third-party tools I use like EDMC and Voice Attack. EDMC and the like I'm fairly sure just need to get pointed to the logfiles, but I'm not sure how well VA will operate in a Linux environment. Anyone out there dealt with anything like this? It's not a deal breaker if it just doesn't work, but I'd like to know ahead of time.

 

Normally I'd go to r/mousereview for this kind of thing, but fuck that website.

Can anybody recommend me a mouse that isn't going to fuck out inside of a couple years? Was previously using an Ironclaw until the USB port went, replaced it with a Basilisk and the scroll on that one's started to jitter up and down now. I have fairly large hands and tend to use knuckle claw grip. Wireless is a must, builtin battery preferred, but requiring a single AA isn't a dealbreaker. I don't mind heavy, prefer a little weight tbh.
