The irony is that I just watched that movie (again after all these years) last week and missed the first part where this song is. I was just playing off the Candy Mnt part. lol Thanks for the reminder!

What is the device you posted? Is it the center of it that heats up? Fits into your shirt pocket? 🤔😉

I am happy for you and don’t really care what OS you use. Sometimes the video driver is not all that is required to make games work. It is definitely not all that is required to further optimize a system for gaming. Especially on older hardware. How many clicks to do the stuff listed below? Still only two clicks on Cachy.
Copious amounts of other gaming/system config info on their wiki, but the gaming packages include:
Proton-CachyOS - based on Proton’s bleeding-edge branch and applies a number of modifications on top of it. - Steam has it listed for use.
Wine-staging patches/Wine Fullscreen FSR Includes video and audio codecs for game cutscenes Support for umu-launcher including UMU-Protonfixes Adds early hotfixes/workarounds for games Gaming related libraries
Tools - Gamescope, GOverlay, MangoHud Launchers - Steam, Heroic Games Launcher, Lutris, Faugus Launcher

Is it the same on Mint? It isn’t for me. On Cachy, the welcome screen has a pick for Apps/Tweaks, then “Install gaming packages”. That’s the difference.
Mint has a welcome screen, but it is very generic. Driver manager, software manager, etc. Sure you can install everything to make it work fine, but Cachy leads you straight into it with that one click and you are gaming within two minutes of OS load. Mint will take a bit longer. And I think it removes some of the package guesswork as well, especially for new users.

I’d have to go parse through the script, though I’m certain someone else here already knows, but amongst other packages, proton, wine, steam and video drivers seem to be what it installs. I had to do all that manually on Mint and since it was my first Linux system I set up as a gamer I am sure I have some package versions set differently/incorrectly. Cachy takes the guesswork out of it.
I am olde and have been building gaming systems for many years. CachyOS is the easiest OS that I’ve ever set up. Am in a game playing within minutes. Even Windows was never so easy.
- Comment on Maybe it's time for Penguin 5 days ago:
You certainly can and I have several distros, but Cachy seems to be well suited with gaming. I am very sure I could tweak Mint to be comparable, but out of the box Cachy is a better gamer. One or two clicks and it’s all set.

There was a study a long time back (maybe at MIT) that tested tinfoil hats and various signals. The signal strength was intensified by the hat.

Usually a shotgun sits up front. Maybe a rifle in the boot? I’m no copologist, but they likely don’t have a rifle unless situations warrant. Maybe modern day society warrants it meow.

Ironically, I just learned that just a few weeks ago when updating my library. Have not had time to watch, but did wonder about the quality compared to the first. Thanks!

There are dozens of us that loved that show. I also bought the soundtrack as they had some banger tunes too!

They do not all behave the same. I have many of them that are supplied as a charging cable in small electronic devices. These ubiquitous USB-C cables will not perform a data connection with your phone. At all. I have to search for that one cable that I know works for data since it moves around the house.

This reminds me of the sketch in The Onion Movie where the masked gunman comes into the bank, but he doesn’t want money, he wants a job. So, they give him one. Worth the watch and hopefully this link works to see the full sketch:
