We have someone at my company who has been here for 30 years that gets to do whatever he wants basically - but what he builds is great. He doesn’t even have a BS degree or anything related, he started as a paralegal who wanted to make his life easier, and has built several iterations of the software that the entire company uses. He’s now my boss, running the data engineering and science department and I gotta say that he’s genuinely great. The only bad things I’ve run across that he’s built are things that he explicitly told management were meant to be just a quick bandaid fix to a problem to buy time for a full fledged solution… and they kept it as the full fledged solution. The stuff still works, it’s just awful to make updates or change to

There’s also autokey, similar to autohotkey but with Python. I haven’t had to use it for much but I didn’t have any issues when I used it for some RuneScape autogrinding

What do you mean? I played TF2 yesterday, proton has been a massive game changer for gaming on Linux. Most games without official support still work and run perfectly, the main things that hinder it now is anti cheat since some anti cheat is built around monitoring the entire system and intentionally only works on windows

Seconding this, steamos (or whatever is on steam deck) is just arch Linux with steam installed. They may have some extra little goodies in there… But nothing major. When you install steam on Linux, you can change a single option in setting and steam will download proton for you. You can attempt to run any steam game and most will work fine. Battlebit remasted isn’t officially supported, but it’s worked since day 1 on my arch install and I’m just using that since it’s the most recent hugely popular game.
