Been gaming on nixos for a month or two and haven't had any issues AFAICT

Worth considering holding onto the Nvidia card to do a vfio windows VM as a fallback for stuff that doesn't run well through wine/proton. It wasn't too hard to setup and its nice to just toss all the games with kernel anticheat/adobe shit into.
I mean wasn't the author of the book saying that's how things should be run? I had always heard the movie was basically mocking the premise of the book.
Will always remember "try my bellybutton logic" or whatever tf it was
Anecdotal, but every time I've tried x11 sessions over the years I've either gotten screen tearing on the desktop or it didn't run at my monitors full refresh rate above 60hz. Wayland has always run how I would expect it to.
I wanted to try Ubuntu on a live disk back in highschool (~2012) but ended up wiping the drive on my laptop. Had to ask a friend who knew Linux for help so I could actually use it. That was eventually followed by debian and Manjaro. Later I tried arch on my desktop, got tired of that and switched back to windows for a few years. I've been running nixos for a while now and have been really enjoying it.
Now that I think about it, the pattern is also probably a factor. If it was all black you'd probably get way less attention for it.
My first instinct wouldn't be weed but you're going to get stares simply because it's not something people wear a lot (where I'm at at least). As others have said it'll be down to what you're willing to put up with.
I use it with gnome on nixos without any problems AFAICT. Had the explicit sync issue with Nvidia initially but I ended up buying an rx6800 to use as the host GPU when I set up win11 with KVM. Been completely fine since.
I feel like portal 2 can get by on a playthrough every so many years based on the writing/VA making it enjoyable even if you half remember the puzzles.
Wheel of time was so close too. If they just didn't fuck with the script so much
