  • I don’t sail the seas often. Sometimes for an AA OR AAA(never a AAAAAAAAAA) title I refuse to pay £100+ for. Usually to just uninstall it when it’s boring repetitive shit. I do have quite an extensive indie and A game collection. I do my best to get games with native builds whenever I can, if only to show that there’s a market for them. And for the most part, you can really tell which Devs have made Linux native builds a core part of the process and which had it as an afterthought.
    I’ve got a few games that just run better using the windows build through Proton. I still persist with aiming for 90%+ Linux native builds for new additions to the collection.


  • Most LTS builds are stable at the expense of potentially compatibility with things like gaming. If you’re aiming at gaming, avoid LTS and stear clear of Debian and it’s direct derivatives. If Debian is upstream from the distro you choose, then your updates will be significantly behind the curve. There’s a lot of gaming oriented distros floating about, and really the only way to find out which is best for you is to try a bunch. I landed on Garuda Arch, it works for me, and if people ask for recommendations it’s top of the list in my opinion.

    Ok, then just start region blocking places with these laws. If the OS connects to the internet and sees it’s in a banned region it locks itself down irreparably or deletes the network drivers and permanently blocks reinstallation. Region block all said regions from even downloading the install files. Put a legally valid entry in the EULA saying that use in those regions is absolutely prohibited without exception and any use by anyone is without the company’s permission and all responsibility for that is on the user.
