Actually, you’re right, I apologize. I had it in my head that it was for a console. For general PC gaming at a desk I agree with Nobara.

This is nonsense. The desktop environment is a secondary concern when it comes to building a console-like experience, and it being 100% proprietary does not mean it’s not polished.

Don’t let this guy discourage you from trying it. I’ve been using Linux for over 20 years, and the Steam Deck is the most polished experience I’ve seen for gaming on Linux, even for non-Steam games. If you decide it’s too limiting, you can just switch to something else.

Reminder for everyone that when there are efforts to change the system and have employers pay higher wages instead, the majority of workers are vehemently against it.

You’ll see people in this thread telling you that it’s not the workers’ fault, and that taking it out on the workers by not tipping is not fair, as if they’re victims of the system.

Most pressure to maintain the system (or add tips to new industries) comes from the workers, and I feel that not tipping is entirely appropriate if you want it to change.

When the workers themselves start clamoring for raising wages and getting rid of tipping culture, I will empathize with them more.

I would get a slight buzz if it had been a while since my last cigarette, but otherwise it was a satisfying of cravings. It’s been about 10 years and I still miss being able to smoke a cigarette during or after stressful situations, such as watching sports.

It’s kind of like sleep. If you get enough sleep, you don’t necessarily feel good, just normal. If you don’t get enough sleep, you feel bad. If you regularly don’t get enough sleep, you might think getting enough sleep feels good, because you’re so used to feeling bad and you have something to compare it to. If you’re currently in a state of being tired, it feels good to lie down and go to sleep.

The act of smoking is like waking up and snoozing your alarm and going back to sleep. It feels good to go back to sleep, but only because you’re tired and you’re satisfying that need. Someone who sets their alarm early on purpose in order to get that “go back to sleep” feeling when they snooze might seem crazy to people who just get enough sleep. And, like smoking, it might piss off the people around you because they have to listen to your alarm go off constantly.

Agree with reducing power. A common mistake when using multiple access points is to set them all to full power.

Devices usually don’t constantly look for a better signal, instead they look for alternatives once the current connection quality is bad. Some devices will hold on for dear life until it’s borderline unusable.

Unless you’re looking for redundancy, the best case scenario is to have only one good option in every area of your home. That’s not always possible, especially where they overlap, but the closer you can get to that ideal, the more likely it is that your device will make the switch.

You should also be able to adjust the backhaul power separately, so you don’t have connectivity issues between the extender and router.
