Even with games that usually use kernal anti-cheat systems like battleeye, some games specifically have enabled proton support and just work as well.

I haven't had too much issues with Bazzite for general use. I still use windows for work, so there's some things I haven't tried setting up and have no clue how different they'd be on an immutable vs a mutable OS.

I've used Mint before (like 10 years ago) and somehow it kept breaking (I'm sure I somehow caused it, but I only knew enough to break things and not enough to understand how I was breaking them). πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ For most people, I'd think how Bazzite works would be acceptable. For some power users, the immutable OS aspect might be annoying, but I think that's mostly an issue for people who are coming from a different Linux distro (it did bother me at first and I did consider switching to something like PopOS) or people who want to run fairly dated or obscure software (granted, VMs are sometimes already necessary for that - at a previous job, we had to use windows 95 VMs to run a specific version of software).

I use cli just for making virtual mics and audio sinks and for .jar, so things people who are afraid of cli probably wouldn't even consider doing. Currently using bazzite. The immutable nature make it annoying when you want to do some things via cli that don't work like they would in vanilla fedora, but that doesn't seem like it would be a problem for someone who doesn't want to use cli. Bazzite includes bazaar for accessing flatpaks and works fine usually.

Switched from w11 to bazzite for personal use (still have to use windows for work) and it's been great. Wish there were a few pieces of software with native Linux support so I could switch for work too.

Not all games make it easy for people to get access to old versions via the beta system. Some, you just have to go the appid for the specific version and access it via the steam console. It would be nice if this encourages more game devs to enable beta versions for at least the most commonly used versions for mods.

That's just a synonym, not an additional thing.

Biological fathers are irrelevant seed donors if that's all they do.

That's not what anon said though.

Yes, we all get anon was also communicating that his dad didn't contribute ~half of anon's genetic material, but using language that also communicates that real parents should be devalued if they don't contribute their seed and seed donors should be thought of as being more than just irrelevant seed donors.

contradicts the story you told before it

At least you recognized that I clearly didn't think that ancestryDNA tests couldn't determine paternity. But it just determines who provided sperm (or an egg and womb), not who the real parents are.

Or do you mean one needn’t be a biological parent to be a real father to a child?

Correct!

Those tests are how we know who our formerly anonymous sperm donor is and how a bunch of us half-siblings know each other. We've met the sperm donor a couple times. Seems like a cool dude mostly. But he's only one person's real dad.
