Ergonomics, forget the gaming gear and move into healthier computing. New office chair, standing desk, adjustable pneumatic monitor arms, fatigue mat, clean up wiring, vertical mouse ball, split keyboards, desk organizers. It never ends

    They were the first to market and built it to distribute some of the most popular PC games to ever exist. They are an entrenched market leader who haven’t tried to make steam into something more than what it should be. They do not have a monopoly, windows store, gog, itch, epic, Apple store, android store, battle.net, EA store, Xbox/store cloud, PlayStation store…

    I’m sorry to inform you but Ubuntu is Debian based and is very much used by governments around the world. IMO, the line your drawing is squiggly with breaks in between. As I stated before, your opinion contradicts the entire ethos of Linux and if one uses a Fedora based distribution it means little to nothing politically.

    You’re lying to yourself if you don’t think Debian is in direct benefit of the engineering work sponsored/paid for by IBM, Canonical, Google, AWS, Intel, AMD, and many other massive enterprises.

    Not to get into politics but the whole point of Linux is about being open and used by anyone from anywhere. I wouldn’t be surprised to see various parts of the Linux kernel, drivers, etc developed/funded by people from Israel, Russia, and many many other countries.

    Edit: the point of this message, this type of approach to your OS choice will ultimately result in throwing your PC in the trash if you dig deep enough.

    I’m a big fan of the Hp Elitebooks, you can get them with AMD chips. Apple’s MacBooks are pretty much in a league of their own and you pay a premium for that! Have an m3 max for work that is incredible.
