Yup, 4am wake up wasn't fun.

Didn’t think anyone would be inspired by this controller

I’d do either 45 degree lines of equal length on 2 corners with the same length, or 2 boxes with equal lengths.

It depends on what method would be easiest for you to implement and what your using to determine the distance between the rectangles.

It was the reason I moved to Linux. Though with another arch based distro and not the deck

So long as you are using a cable to send images and video to a TV, someone will find a way to intercept and record it.

The bigger issue is that Blurays are the highest quality video there is, especially when it comes to audio. For those who do care this is deviating.

Yup my install order is

Repo

FlatPak (if it doesn't need is level stuff)

AUR

TBH I want "user friendly" with up to date drivers. Most Ubuntu bases distros dont offer that and fedora doesn't have the same support with copr that AUR has.

While I don't agree with Manjaro's parent company, as someone who doesn't want to tinker with their os, I prefer it.

I've tried and used both. They are both arch, and they both have their uses.

Endeavour is an excellent "arch with GUI" as another user pointed out. However its missing GUI elements which I personally expect from a modern OS like a Package Manager. There are work arounds like Buah, but I found them to not be as polished as having a distro shipped with it.

Manjaro on the other end is also Arch, but with a heavy emphasis on User Experience. The depth and detail their GUI is, means you don't need a terminal if you don't want to use one. Kernel, Systemd, and more has a GUI interface baked in to areas you'd expect them, like in setting.

But their packages being behind means that installing from the AUR can cause issues when the AUR package expects a newer package that manjaro is still evaluating.

For me, I am using Manjaro since I just want a work station that works. And not having to deal with a terminal to fix most problems is something I desire in an operating system.

With that said when I got EndeavourOS to a point where its mostly usable with GUI, there was no noticeable difference in day to day use. I just found it tiring when something broke.

Honestly didn't know there was a difference. I got the DLC and the game individually since it was cheaper. Based on the comments I appeared to have made the better decision. (Though my poor laptop struggles to run it)

Got it from GOG so....

Didn't get it on Steam but it is deck compatible (and on steam), The Outer Worlds. Nice no nonsense Fallout Stylus RPG, without the Bethesda jank
