One of my cats can't get enough of them, literally begs for them daily. For her it's butt drumming > food.

The other one hates them.

That fight gave me so much trouble. Every single try at least one of my party members was shoved into the abyss and in 20 tries or so not a single one resisted the shove. In the end I did everything I could to nuke the boss, ignoring everything else and then with my last party member I went invisible, jumped to a safe spot and killed everything else with a bow.

I've never seen it before until now, but you're totally right. I'm going to start hating it too now.

I actually do most of my gaming on Linux. No problems thus far. I've only got Win11 on my PC to play VR.

While it's already been talked about, for no. 4, does anyone know a good batch renamer I can use with Arch/Gnome?

On Windows I had BulkRenameUtility which was really good.

If you have any more questions don't hesitate to write me a PM or otherwise reach out. I might be able to help. As for your free disk space I think you'll have a hard time making it all work with just 130GB of free disk space. Not because EndeavourOS can't work with 130GB but because as soon as you set the partitions it's extremely hard to change your partition size for Windows and Linux because of the way these partitions sit on your physicial drive.

Your 4tb drive should be less of an issue. I don't have a lot of knowledge as to how Linux works with NTFS but as far as I know Linux is way better at working with Windows file systems as Windows is with working with Linux file systems.

Awesome man! I hope I can get my wife to play it with me. But yea, it's exactly how console games from these times were. No complaining from me though. Do you also still remember looking at the end game cinematic from BG:DA2 and having your imagination run wild as to what that cliffhanger ending might mean and being hype for whatever that ending might entail?

Lol, that brings back memories. That face is burned into my memory. It was always so hype to go back to him and looking for new armour and weapons. I still think those games were way better than they get credit for.

Lol, for a second there I was extremely confused and wondering what the hell you were talking about..and then I remembered they made a third one...or rather I mean, what? A third game? I wish!

I always played the dwarf in the first game but I also played the necromancer in the second game. Well, I also remember cheating myself Drizzt Do'urden for the second game and playing him...but usually the Necromancer haha.

That depends on your desktop manager. I am using GNOME and I'm using its custom shortcut feature as well. If you're also using GNOME you can just go into Settings -> Keyboard -> View and Customise Shortcuts -> Custom Shortcuts to add keyboard shortcuts. I added Shift+Win+S to take screenshots with Flameshot for example. But you can add pretty much anything there.

File sharing from Linux to Windows is extremely easy. Samba (Linux implementation of smb) is very easy to implement. From what I remember you just have to install samba and then add new network shares in /etc/samba/smb.conf.

In terms of disk space you'll have to put some thought into if you really want to dual boot. If disk space is sparse it's going to be tough. EndeavourOS is pretty lightweight but if you want to daily drive it it's still going to take up a considerable amount of space. The biggest problem with one disk drive is usually creating partitions. With Windows already installed your UEFI partition is likely too small to contain both Win and Linux boot data. And when you install Linux as a new partition on your existing drive you will simultaneously hamper your ability to change the existing partition sizes. I would advise to get a new (even if small) SSD for Linux to get around any partition related problems.

I know right? But nowadays people have washing machines, some even got dish washers, they're able to visit a foreign country every year and suddenly our lives are not too bad. I mean they could be better, but you don't want to be the type who complains about everything, do you? Nah, some people have it way worse than you, you've seen it on the internet and in documentations on the TV. You're one of the privileged, from a privileged country, you're not allowed to complain. We Europeans even have "free" healthcare and "unlimited" sick leave! Better keep quiet, else the rich will leave the country and we lose everything!

I'm so tired of this fucking shit.

Does anyone else have have fond memories of Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance (1-2) ? I wasn't aware that the PC games existed back then but I adored the PS2 hack and slash games and I'll always remember the Elfsong Tavern from BG:DA1 very fondly.
