I've been running cachy on my main desktop for probably close to 6 months now with zero issues, so I can say from personal experience: it is very stable.
I just love how simple and easy it is. And cutting edge for my hardware is also nice. Highly recommended!

W40K is one of my all time fav media franchises (up there with Shadowrun), so I love these games! My favs:
Mechanicus: holy shit so much fun. The end game gets a little stale since they didn't limit the power of some of the tech priests, so combat becomes completely meaningless (you wind up being able to wipe entire encounters without the enemy even taking a turn). And for a tacticts game that is pretty much nothing but combat, that's no good. BUT that said, 100% still worth playing. They absolutely NAILED the vibe. The music, visuals, effects, storylines, tech priests, SO well done. Mid-game combat is also crazy fun, it's right where you start to get super powerful but aren't op yet.
Inquisitor: a MUST PLAY for any fans of the genre (arpg diablo-likes) ESPECIALLY with the recent (like a year ago maybe?) add on that included the controllable 4 pack of characters to join you in-game. Man I had so much fun clearing maps with those additional characters. They rebalanced it too to make it a lot more fun and a lot less one-shotty.
I don't do pve/pvp/coop games, so several of the others aren't interesting to me personally, but also, where's Boltgun!??!?!?!

Also to pile on: the recent nvidia openai 100 billion deal is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad. Like collapsing house of cards people are going to lose their retirements due to the market crashing bad. This is bordering on corrupt market manipulation IMO, but whatever. WHEN the crash happens its going to be so bad.
I for one welcome it with arms open.

This is one of those games that on paper I love following, and reading about, and watching videos about, but just could never get into due to complexity. But I absolutely love that it exists and people play it!

I think it's safe to say I'm 100% burned out on anything Marvel for a good .... 10 yrs maybe? I'm adding this to my wishlist though, because I love a good beatemup and it actually looks pretty cool, but I just can't with anything Marvel right now.

As expected, for Steam it continues to basically be two distros: arch (and derivatives) or ubuntu (and derivatives). Fedora gets in a couple percentage points but nothing huge.

I'm not putting much time in recently on the Deck, but when I am, it's all been in Quartet. A fantastic modern retro jrpg that's perfect for the handheld gaming sessions.

I'm so sick and tired of that played out celebrity Snoop being in EVERYTHING. And then to take him and add AI generated game into the mix? LOLOLOL I mean it's just hilarious I didn't think there could be a lower effort project possible but here we are. Does this set the new bar for shovelware garbage?
