I was playing with Silverblue but had to switch out because it didn't have DisplayLink drivers or a flatpak for VMWare Horizon which meant I couldn't connect to work

  1. Electric Mountain bike - i am over 50 and had not rode regularly since my teens. I borrowed a MTB from a friend last year and struggled to make any progress until I picked up a secondhand e-MTB. Since then I have been averaging around 150km/week and my stamina has notably improved.

  2. PC - been a PC guy since 1989 and could not picture life without one. I'm an inveterate tinkerer and have built and rebuilt dozens over the years. I currently have a gaming desktop dual-booting Ubuntu and Win11 and a laptop running Ubuntu plus a couple of servers.

  3. iPad - for years I was an Android guy but a couple years back I traded a spare laptop to my niece for her iPad (she wanted to learn coding) and was blown away by the user experience. Since then I have gone all in with iPhone, apple watch, and an old Macbook Air.

Warcraft 2. With the HD widescreen patch (why was this not included in the re-release???) it has aged surprisingly well. Some of the levels are brutally hard though.

Related question - steam flatpak or deb?

Glad I nuked all my posts and comments and deleted my account last year

Thanks for that. Now that I know the launcher shortcut I will give it another go

Yeah I had a similar experience when logging on to Sway - I had no clue what to do. Did you ever figure out how to bring up a menu or launcher? All I could do after googling was launch a terminal

I'm running Onyx (sorry... Fedora Budgie Atomic) on my Thinkpad and love it. Last night I decided to give Sway a shot and, when I was done with that, rolled back to Budgie without any of the cruft of installing additional DE's alongside each other.

Cheapest was about 6500 pounds! Way out of my league

3 weeks less jail time than the poor sod he stitched up
