It’s also not worth my time or money to track down old, beat-up Chromebooks and put Linux on them, and yet here we are.

I’m weird, so the things I find fun are weird.

I look forward to thrifting one in a few years, then installing Linux on it.

Attempted satiation of the curse. Probably.

Sir, if you are inserting actual shit, you’re not going to have much success either turning screws or making holes in things.

If we’re speaking philosophically, do we really know that an electric kitchen mixer, when fitted with a bit, would make a terrible drill? It’s probably not something that’s been tested or studied much, if at all.

For all we know, it would make an excellent one.

Maybe we should apply for grants, talk to labs. Set up some experiments.

They’d probably die long before they had a chance to try working.

The device is the drill.

The driver or bit is the thing you insert into the end of the drill.

It’s not regulation if they are hateful. It’s abuse.

Who?

Still?

Oh yeah, totally correct. But it bills itself as a “gaming distro.”

It worked for Nintendo with Bowser.

You’ve already gotten several good replies, and I’ll add a couple more details that might be related to your use case:

Bazzite is a “gaming distro” with built-in Steam integrations. It’s great if all you do on the machine is game and do gaming-related things, like streaming. It’s what I use on my dedicated gaming PC, under my TV. Things mostly Just Work, and I’ve only had to mess with configuration files when setting up things like wake-on-USB and my custom Network shares.

Gaming and streaming will work on basically any distro. And if you pick a distro based on Debian or Fedora, it should be stable and fairly easy to get used to.

Don’t wipe out Windows yet. Install Linux on a separate partition, or even better a separate drive. That way, you can switch off between them until you’re fully used to Linux. Let yourself transition over a few months. That way, if you struggle to do something in Linux, you can switch back over to Windows and get it done.

Some folks try to change all at once, then get frustrated if they hit a stumbling block. It’s safer to keep Windows as a backup, so you don’t feel trapped if something goes wrong.

I’m not really sure why you chose to reply to me, as opposed to anyone else who replied on this thread. You can believe whatever you want.

There’s no evidence that ghosts exist. Yes, there are many unexplained things. Yes, existence of ghosts is not impossible. But without evidence, it’s impossible to argue for something.

I’m not going to tell you that you shouldn’t believe in it. I’m just going to tell you that I won’t.

Arguments against it typically make no sense.

Shhhhh. Let people have fun.

Or… understood it perfectly and succeeded in making something that grabbed your attention.

Then you’d have actual Nazis flooding the internet with posts, and nobody would be able to remove them.

I’m sorry your mother died :(
