I think you’ve misunderstood; I was laughing at them claiming Arch is less functional than Windows. It was stated so factually, when in actuality it’s nothing more than an opinion (and a debatable one).
With that said, my partner has been using a Steam Deck for a little over a year now, to date they haven’t needed to use the console once(or “hack” anything). You’re being disingenuous or doing it wrong.
Good luck with your peaceful / not peaceful demonstration and let me know how it goes; the image of a small group of people with placards protesting against “OSes and other critical IT software” gave me a good giggle.
I remember playing Half Life at my Grandparents house, my grandfather or Dad stuck me on Half Life (they had a PC) and I loved it.
I was only able to get past the first few zombies (by fleeing) before having to give up from being too scared lol. While I had played other games / consoles, Half Life was the first game I played that blew my mind and gave me a “wow” factor.
I think other than the original I think Opposing Force is my favourite of the expansions.
It’s free and very fun. I’m quite new to SS14 and there seems to be a lot to it. It’s graphics are topdown, 2D and aren’t it’s strong point but the potential for fun is unlimited.
I found it to be pretty overwhelming at first, evening moving around and navigating the UI was difficult. However, now I’m going around mining space rocks, cleaning up mess in the station and providing my crew mates with ketchup on bread for sustenance.
