Then you call the phone number and its a "helpful" voice chat bot you have to tell your problem to and hope it directs you to the right directory in their convoluted phone tree

Yeah before you just had to register individual wireguard endpoints in network manager with wireguard installed

So, uh: did I get the job?

Yeah, wotsisname's Law of Headlines. If it ends in a question mark the answer to the question is no

Yeah, I'm currently in school for opticianry in Canada and both doctors and opticians are required to give you a written prescription that you can take elsewhere, and in most if not all provinces they have to put your PD on it too

I agree with the other guy, I've done 3 playthroughs of that game on openSUSE tumbleweed with a GTX 1080.

My experience is don't try and run most games linux native, run them through proton in steam. Far more consistently out of the box working. If you run into any trouble, ProtonDB will have the fix posted 90% of the time

I personally find games to be more glitchy on Wayland, so if you're picking a compositor and want stability I'd say go X11.

That said, if you want "just works" go Linux Mint. I set my partner up with it near december 2023 and it's been smooth sailing. And they don't touch the command line at all

Out of curiosity, which games? Was steam flatpak or from repo?

To anyone who hasnt: do it! I did it a year ago and the only things you cant do are games with kernel level anticheat, but pretty much any of those games arent worth playing in my opinion anyways.
