Sony made some significant changes between the PS4 and PS5 controllers. I don’t know the details beyond the dynamic resistance triggers, but if you buy a controller board to make your own fightstick, it’ll work with everything up through PS4 and then you need an additional daughter-board to make it work with the PS5.

I don’t really grok products like this.

If you have a fundamental disagreement with a platform, continuing to engage with it, even through a condom, is still perpetuating it. It’s maintaining that platform as still important and integral, and a place that others should continue to engage with. It’s telling advertisers that it’s still a place that’s worth their money to maintain a presence on. It stymies the momentum in shifting to an alternative; why put the effort into a new service if people are still seeing your posts?

It’s like pirating Windows instead of moving to a different OS. You’re still perpetuating the MS hegemony and telling software developers that Windows is the platform they need to develop for.

Seeing a game is Ubisoft makes it a total nonstarter. I refuse to have to have a separate account and be forced to log into it just to play a goddamn game.

When I need to focus, I have an entire playlist of Weather Channel type jazz. It’s energetic enough to give me baseline stimulation but not so much to turn on party mode, and being instrumental means it doesn’t steal the attention of the words part of my brain and wreck my ability to actually do work.

Full agree. Get his product’s name as part of the general term and it’d confuse people into thinking it was the original.

I’ve never heard the term “threadiverse”. Where are you coming across it?

I think if you want meaningful recommendations, you have to say:

• why you want to get away from Fedora
• what you liked about Fedora that kept you there until now
• what you hope you’d get from a new distro
• any nonstarters that would keep you away from a distro

Without knowing those things, it’s just going to be people proselytizing their favorite distros rather than suggesting one that will fit what you’re looking for.

In OP’s situation where they’re downloading a car, I think it’s a safe assumption that the car has already been designed/engineered and OP is just printing it out and assembling it. This would be akin to a kit car, and modern kit cars certainly don’t require specialized engineering skills to assemble.
