I think a good comparison is Bell Labs and AT&T. A lot of good work was done by Bell Labs but it was mostly enabled by AT&Ts monopoly.

What’s amusing to me is I get the first one then don’t pick it back up until Harambee. I wonder if I’m suffering from mid term meme memory loss.
Napoleon dynamite quotes were definitely mixed in with the anchor man quotes where I’m from.

Is it just my hardware?
It is not your hardware
Am i using linux just wrongly for years?
Not really
Is it my fault?
Not really
The main issue from what I can tell is you are trying to play older windows games which can be pretty hit or miss. More recent pc games often support the steam deck which is usually a good sign for compatibility.
Gaming on Linux has greatly improved over the last couple years (especially thanks to proton/steam deck) but if you are trying to run older games that were never designed to run to it or you want to play online games with aggressive anti-cheat it is still going to be a bit of a struggle.
I would recommend sticking to an Arch based distro like EndeavourOS (as it is similar to the SteamOS) or a Debain based distro and not swap around too much so you can get a feel for it without having a bunch of things change on you all the time like package names and the like.
All that said if your jam is older windows games and you have access to windows and are tired of messing with the OS and just want to play games just use windows, try linux another day.
Some games are trickier than others for sure. Are you using protondb as a reference?
Anno 1404 is a 15 year old game with aggressive DRM so I could tell right away that it would be one of the more tricky titles.
It really comes down to if you are trying to use newer hardware or not. Debian based systems usually run fine out of the box on older systems.
For newer hardware your going to want new drivers and kernel versions which you get with a rolling release distro.
I’m sure one of his progeny will take up the grift
They are definitely AB testing things like rejecting ad blockers.
I’ve been trying fin Droid which works well but it’s definitely a work in progress.
Russians seem willing to flatten Ukraine with artillery to capture things I wonder if they will be as willing to do that on their own territory
They are throwing things at the wall hoping something sticks.
For some reason people don’t want Mozilla to make money or perhaps they assume browser development is lucrative.
This is predicated on the assumption that a CEOs skill is directly related to their salary.
This may or may not be the case.
That works until it doesn’t. Though it has been a few years since there was a nice notable example.
3000s were good and the 4000s were bad value for a long time. I went AMD this generation for the first time. Gott a 7900xtx for a lot less than a 3080/4080. Prices have come down a bit though.
I’m sure there is still 32 appeals to go before anything actually happens
If you know anything about Lenovo you would know that if ARM laptops started to have high market share they would have like 35 mediocre models on offer in a year.
Some of the think pad lines are still good but their consumer offerings and a couple of the think pad lines are trash.
This is reported as a percentage and that’s what is tripping people up here.
You are not seeing a drastic rise in Linux usage you are seeing a large decrease in the use of desktop computers.
Linux is increasing because the only ones left using desktops are Linux users.
Fair enough.
Though if density is irrelevant then the entire thing is meaningless.
Should instead be talking about how large of a silicon wafer can be produced.
People more readily appreciate things that obviously directly affect them.
