I never got very much past the first scene of the TMNT arcade game, but now that I have it emulated on multiple devices I thought I'd finally try to get through to the end and,

holy shit there's no way anyone got to the end of that without dropping >$20 worth of quarters. The cheese is obscene

However you look at it, the way Microsoft is now pushing things Windows will not be a secure operating system. We need to be able to look at our options and try alternatives.

I only turned on the PC for certain games, and it was surprising how much I could play on the Linux laptop without ever going back to the Windows PC. Productivity-wise, there was almost nothing I needed from Windows that couldn't be done in Linux.

That may not be true for you depending on what you use, but the point is that a 2nd device lets you dip into the Linux ecosystem and figure out what works and doesn't work for you.

You can have a secure system you control, and you can keep your Windows PC as a machine only for games. I actually did this back when the Steam Deck was announced but wasn't available. I took a laptop that would frequently BSOD and installed Pop_OS! on it. I liked working on it so much I started using it instead of my desktop.

Windows users will be vulnerable to any of their sensitive data being stolen by malware since Recall stores everything in an unsecured database. What do you do if you're a gamer fed up with Windows, but you're not ready to format your whole PC over to Linux?

One option is to get a Steam Deck. It's a portable gaming system, but connect it to a dock or dongle and it's also a full featured desktop PC.

Happy 20th, UT2k4. Tim Sweeney doesn't love you anymore, but you were a great game.
