The PC versions are quite fun as well, if tabletop play is not your thing.

You might enjoy Blood Bowl

That’s a strange way to spell “malicious actors”.

Interesting! I’ve been a longtime Linux user mostly with debian-based systems (Debian, Ubuntu, Pop!) And it’s been interesting to me how one small thing or another will do that.

For me it is usually Kerberos / domain authentication things that are unnecessarily tough to set up in one distro or another.

What caused you to abandon Bazzite?

I’ll keep that in mind in case I ever shower inside a boiler.

Not one of those but XMPP (once upon a time called Jabber) is available worldwide.

Good thing they used vinegar then.

Yeah, we have some of those nearby me. “RRFB” rectangular rapid-flash beacon.

Upside, people do notice them. Downside, they never quite know what to do and it’s not good enough for a 4-lane road.
