Obviously they made the announcement at an opportune moment, but blizz wouldn't be making this change if it didn't coincide with their bottom line.

I don't see the correlation between those and making new heroes free. Maybe as a way to douse the community flames. I think it's simply because people want to play the new content. While some cave and buy the battlepass, it doesn't offset the losses of the grind and paywall that stops people from coming back and investing to begin with.

It's a good change for sure, but the cynic in me can't help but think they're doing this solely because they believe it'll make them more money this way.

Between the snaps crisis and the ads in the terminal ubuntu seems to be doing its best to scare off regular users.

The reason it was cut is more about the drag action, dragging to panel maximizes and grabbing it will automatically restore it down. It's basically combined with the move window action.

There's basically only 2 reasons to go for nvidia, rtx and cuda, figure out if you care enough about it to get an nvidia gpu.
As for postponing shit, just get it over with, there'll never be a perfect moment to buy your gpu.

You can disable the screensaver and auto-suspend just fine in the settings, caffeine lets you toggle it from the panel, I'd hardly call that a must have, if anything it'd annoy most users who prefer a clean panel.

I prefer the gnome approach of having a functioning basic DE where you can optionally install extensions that you want.

Diablo 4 got 40% off within a few months I find AAA games are increasingly starting with a high price point to capitalize on the hype and advertising campaign, and once that peters out they quickly reduce the price.

We could mirror your post for windows though, their only interaction with the OS is launching the browser. The vast majority of people running windows only use their pc to run the browser and the office suite, and they use windows because it's what came pre-installed.

I understand your point that india doesn't particularly care for linux, but by that same logic the world doesn't particularly care for windows either.

As a fix, you can run the game through gamescope which should sandbox the game.
