My gaming PC sits on the other side of the wall of my living room. I’ve got HDMI and USB going right through the wall. Wireless keyboard and mouse on the coffee table. It’s worked great for years, and for couch gaming I generally use a Steam Controller or DS4 in Bluetooth mode.

My living room TV is smart but I don’t use any of those features and keep it disconnected from a network.

At the very beginning I thought it was James May and was surprised he had a beard. But then when he started moving so fast, I realized it wasn’t him.

Ugh, fine, have an upvote.

Very interesting. My rig is still on Pop mostly because I’ve just never had issues with it. I use the Liquorix kernel for a little added spice.

On my laptop I’ve been playing with NixOS lately (used to run Arch btw). I love it so far, but haven’t explored it for gaming.

circuitfarmer, 1 year ago to linux in What's your favorite music player on Linux?

Foobar2000, which is a Windows application but available as a snap using wine.

I really want to use DeaDBeeF because it is Linux native and has similar customization features (I like big album art, for example), but sadly its library management leaves a lot to be desired compared to Foobar’s. I don’t want to have to generate a playlist every time I want to listen to an album, nor do I want to have to clear that playlist when I’m done.

I haven’t found any other player with even remotely similar customization available.
