21 days so far! Going pretty good. Still haven't worked up the courage to deal with the whole music software thing tho.
So today is the first day where I'm going to try and do my work entirely in Linux. Wish me luck

Random question...
If you're a fan of shooters (first person or otherwise), what sort of experiences do you want right now that you don't feel are being provided by current games? Including indies, AA, and AAA.

Yeah tbh there's nothing wrong with being like you know what, screw it, I'll just sample the hype a little.
Sometimes a little copium is what you need to get through the week tbh.

Even though the "Half-life 3 announcement this week" theories are almost entirely copium, I'm still changing my desktop to a HL3 wallpaper for old time's sake.

I realized the other day that eastern european apocalyptic imagery and Stalker-inspired stuff has become so prevalent that I've actually kind of cooled on it. Which is a part of my personality that I really don't enjoy -_-

I don't want to turn into one of those guys, but I do have to say that there's been an immense psychological benefit to starting up my computer and having it just quietly boot to a clean digital work area without a dozen windows popping up and services starting.

Ok so it sounds like I probably won't tackle this for my smaller games right now, since afaik they all work well on Proton and I don't really know enough to adequately support them at the moment.
If a game runs well on Proton, is there a purpose in having a native Linux version?
