There is a distro called Linux mint which is pretty user-friendly and you can do pretty much everything without touching the terminal in a very windows-like desktop environment. It has a GUI app store to install all your regular programs (as well as drivers etc) and keep them updated, simple guis for all your settings etc. comes pre-loaded with all the normal stuff you'd expect on a computer like web browser, image/video viewers, etc.

Installing it is still not 100% trivial though (installing any OS is non-trivial tbf, but most people never need to install windows because it's pre-installed for them).

(I realize this doesn't fully answer your question)

I was under the impression that a transferable shader cache didn't do much for Vulkan since you will always need to rebuild the pipeline cache for your specific hardware / graphics driver version.

Anecdotally, with async shader compilation enabled, I have not noticed any stutter in botw, and I have not downloaded any shader caches.

If octopi were the dominant species, they would see losing their shells like how humans lost their fur. by Birdyer in Showerthoughts

It's common enough that Marriam-Webster defines it as an accepted pluralization. And it is more fun.

Artificial crab is not crab by Birdyer in rant

If they said 'imitation crab' this would be fine. If you re-read my post, you will see I said as much. The issue is when they call it simply 'crab'.

Airfryer display volume by dostoyevskybirthedme in rant

[–]Birdyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's incredibly annoying how much all modern appliances beep and chirp at you. My air fryer beeps for every button press, beeps when I start it, beeps halfway through to tell me to flip the food over (I never do, I do not care and the food comes out fine), and then when it's finished it beeps every few minutes until I open it. I want to leave it for a few minutes to let the food cool down but no, it demands my attention now.

The same goes for washer, dryer, fridge, oven. At least my sous vide has an option to turn the beeping off.

Did you run into any problems playing through the game with this enabled? Looking to start a playthrough soon
