Quoting: RamenJunkieI have not dual booted in a while but Windows 10 would kill my Linux partition all the time during updates and I am not convinced it was an "accident".

I recall hearing about a Windows 10 update that randomly wrote junk data across any non-Windows file system, which very effectively bricked Linux installs. Of course Microsoft insisted it was unintentional.

Quoting: redneckdrowThe best thing an experienced Linux user can do to save their sanity is to bite the bullet and go Linux-only.

What finally drove me to Linux only was when a Windows 7 update caused an unrecoverable boot loop, and then the repair tool on the Windows 7 DVD had a bug preventing it from recognizing an existing Windows installation, meaning a complete reinstall was the only option, so I said, "Screw it," booted into Linux, reformatted the Windows drive to ext4, and have never looked back.

As far as Microsoft is concerned, this isn't a bug, it's a feature.

Installing Windows on the Steam Deck is like attaching an anchor to your high powered sports car.

I think the best Stellaris purchase I ever made was the Complete Soundtrack on Steam. It's $6.99, and the great thing is, every time a new DLC is released with music, it gets added to the collection. At the moment, that adds up to around 90 tracks of music.

Quoting: ToddLThis is why I avoid adding plugins or anything else to my Steam Deck because you can never tell what can go wrong.

Plugins that simply customize the interface are fine. Ones that add new features or change core functionality seem to be the culprits here.

I refuse to believe it until I see Half-Life 3 for sale on Steam.
