I had an Arabic barber complain about his 2-3 western exes and that women here are just too independent and free, dress too revelealing & so on;
he was a 1-time replacement while my regular (& quiet) barber was away

I just noded & agreed cause I legit didn't want him to fuck up my hair

Nearly every modern web browser, discord (including custom discords) & lots of gaming works on Linux just fine - I can vouch for this;
As for 3D printing, most related software seems to have linux versions afaik

So far SteamOS is tailored only for steamdecks so far, not sure how much the steam machine will change that;
But since its basically a linux distro, the closest thing to SteamOS for you PC in both user experience and presentation is Bazzite - you can even test it from your USB without installing it

Well in LinuxMint, ZorinOS or Bazzite (if u game a lot), using the terminal is like completely optional for like 90% of use cases - the few times you might be forced to use it you can just copy-paste the commands

Ubuntu has fallen out of favor, both ZorinOS & Linux Mint (which are both built on top of Ubuntu) are superior user friendly choices

Although gaming is something both of those can do, if you really wanna focus on that try Bazzite

All 3 got pretty damn good out of the box experiences

When i had burnout I just worked in a dutch warehouse company lifting boxes, met cool people, after 1 year had to go back 2 grinding digital art

For me it was pretty chill, since I'm a bit of a knucklehead and it was nowhere near US amazon . com warehouse conditions - decent pay too

So far every game that didn't have kernel anti cheat practically worked out of the box, VERY rarely I had to change launch options...

I even managed to mod Fallout New Vegas on linux, but its slightly more inconvenient than modding games on windows...

So yeah, I'd say its impressively good

1) it's practically a linux pc, it's just more portable and imo has a better hardware value to cost ratio than most laptops

2) OLED one is pretty good

You could use Lutris & ProtonUp to easily apply proton to non steam games or non steam versions

Personally haven't done this for multiplayer games, but I assume it just works all the same

Oh, did they change that recently?

I haven't been following apple products as much, since here in the EU the markup is insane

- Google pays Apple 10 billion per years, as they collect more than enough data through the browser and being the default search engine;

With iOS being proprietary we aren't 100% sure what & how much they collect, but they clearly sell *some* of the user data

Well the android lack of privacy is obvious because Google is an advertisement company that sells data;
For iOS they:
-claim they dont sell user data & encrypt it, but apparently they do sell their store spending data;
-have trackers on their hardware as anti theft, but it can be used to track user

Both GrapheneOS and /e/OS are completely FOSS degoogled Android distros;
- GrapheneOS officially only supports Googles Pixel phones (ironically enough)
- /e/OS can test your phone for compatibility

Imho these 2 are the closest to a conveniently functional Linux Phone

Going to IPhone, which never let you side load to begin with, because you won't be able to side load on Android isn't much of a solution imho...(+Both are equally privacy-invasive)

Since Android was open source till recently, it has FOSS alternative distros like Linux (which android is based on)

CachyOS is the one I've been running, arch based + optimizations + quality of life included, I prefer it over arch cause I'm lazy

Other arch ones are either EndeavourOS & Omarchy

Heard & seen cool things bout em
