Is she talking about how Loblaws is essentially an organized crime outfit?

I wanted to keep it simple and avoid a factorial sum. My example also shows that the remainder sum goes up even when nothing is spent.

You can't just add the balances and expect it to amount to the same as the spend. Consider this: you spend 0, 0, 0, 50. Your balances are 50, 50, 50, 0. Adding up the balances you get 150. What does this mean? Absolutely nothing.

Bazzite, as a gaming-first distribution, makes some choices that are acceptable for such a platform, but that I believe are unacceptable in a secure development environment. This is why I wrote "not ideal" instead of "bad". If you don't care about security then it's perfectly cromulent. But I value security, so I would not recommend it.

Bazzite is a good HTPC or living room gaming distro. It is not an ideal all purpose desktop distro, just like a Steam Deck is not an ideal all purpose desktop system.

If you want a Bazzite-like experience that is better suited for the desktop then use Fedora Silverblue, which is what Bazzite/ublue builds upon.

Note that Wasabi has no egress fees, but has a transfer limit - essentially the contract stipulates that your monthly egress will be less than the amount of storage you pay for.

My mistake. I read your post as you using VMWare Workstation on Fedora, not the other way around.

Your other options are Virtual Box by Oracle or head down the Xen path.

Or, since OP is on Linux, a native KVM option like virt-manager or boxes.

What happens if you have a streak of single term presidents, with no new judges appointed?

I would rather see a lottery system implemented. Every year, the oldest standing percentage of judges gets retired and replaced with randomly picked judges out of a pool that meets certain requirements (these can be debated). No election, no appointment, using an auditable system, and participation is compulsory, with strict restrictions of what activities the judge is allowed to participate in while serving so that they're discouraged from staying on term too long.

Fedora Silverblue.

The game takes a while to warm up the plot. It picks up with the Baron quests, and the big emotional parts come out full steam towards the last third of the story.

If you manage to finish it, replay it with different choices. Some of the character reactions can be really endearing, others can be terribly heartbreaking.

Both expansions also have excellent stories, one with a Faustian plot, the other with dark stories in a fairy tale veneer.

I would suggest you try to make it as far as the botchling quest. If you still don't care for it after that then I'll concede that it's not your style of game.
