“No, Karen, I won’t hack your WiFi.”
I use Linux because the Windows normies recoil from my computer in fear whenever I open the terminal, like a school of fish around a shark. Sometimes I even open
htopif I want the office to myself.sudo apt install hollywood
no seriously install hollywood and run it it’s hilarious
Is this the application that shows more and more code whenever you hit a key on the keyboard?
Not exactly. It splits the terminal into multiple tiles and each one contains a different Hacker screen. Anything from Matrix-style falling characters to echoing a random manpage to a filesystem tree to a character graphic world map.
That Linux distribution? Albert Einstein. Everyone clapped.
not only can i install steam i can run almost any game marked windows only
I’ve gotten to the point where I just assume that the game will work with proton. I’ll check protondb if it’s an expensive game but other than that I just pretend I’m using Windows.

In my experience, Linux has been superior for older games because proton (the compatibility layer that makes windows game work on Linux) has a ton of old windows components packed in that are broken on modern windows.
The main issue people have these days are with newer multiplayer games and anti-cheat not playing nice with proton.
Modding can also be a bit of a hurdle if you’re into that sort of thing, but with a bit of work it’s doable.

Most MMOs should be fine. Off the top of my head the games that don’t work because of anti cheat are Destiny, CoD, and the Riot games (League and Valorant)
not really an expert at warhammer but steam has done a lot of work in compatibility of games.
you can check protondb and lutris.net
The main hurdle is modern anti cheat. Many old games actually work better on Linux because of fans making dedicated tweaks.
Dawn of war works great for me, ive also managed to play space marine one and two, (granted one is a bit of a pain in the ass to get working) ive also gotten Gothic armada 2 and gladius to run. As far as I remember the only one that didn’t work out of the box was space marine 1 and that’s because of some stupid DRM that’s been put on it. I’m on Pop!OS for reference.
I can even run games that don’t work on modern Windows, like Fallout 3.
I’ve been meaning to try out the new version of React OS
It probably still won’t work well but it is cool that it is still a work in progress.

No one ever asked me “Oh, are you using linux?” Even if they see that your Desktop Environment is different from what they’re used to on Windows, they usually don’t notice it’s anything else than Windows.
Says yes to both

“So you’re really good at computers right?”
