I suppose we just have to hope the air conditioner doesn't suddenly hit us with a BSOD!

Not fully true. Yes a lot of games run on Windows.. But a lot of them also run on Linux, in some cases even Native, in other cases using Wine/Proton from Valve. See: https://www.protondb.com/
A lot of online pvp games do work under Linux as well. But then again.. AAA games are the most problematic.. because they just stuck, and get ignored by the devs/publishers. I'm looking at you EA!
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 6 days ago:
What a shame. But to be expected..
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 6 days ago:
So in theory.. you can not even play single-player campaign because of kernel level anti-cheat + internet connection. Even if Wine/Proton would allow you to start the game.

You are missing the most important issue. It only runs on Windows!

F*K the HDMI forum. Those people are the cause I can not run 4k 120Hz TV on HTPC using AMD video kernel drivers on Linux. Because these drivers are open-source and the HDMI folks do not want this support in the open source drivers.. FK them hard.

"Advertising is a small part of the experience".
Well great Amazon. Nobody is asking for this 'experience'.
- Comment on People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads 2 weeks ago:
Haha. Are people even supprised? I mean come on.
The best thing you can do, is just DIY your own display with a microcontroller and have some fun in building it. Maybe run Linux on it and voila.

- Comment on Forza Horizon 6 - Official Teaser Trailer | Tokyo Game Show 2025 4 weeks ago:
OK that sounds promising. It's not like EA which will break Linux on every game due to kernel level anti-cheat.
- Comment on Forza Horizon 6 - Official Teaser Trailer | Tokyo Game Show 2025 4 weeks ago:
