  • I have no doubt about the fact that it was legit stuff. The beans were bought from a reputable vendor and brewed at a reputable cafeteria. It was different for sure, but nothing that would swoon you.

    The whole thing is based on the speciality of the way the beans are produced. They sell an image of excellence and rarity, but in the end it’s just coffee.












  • I installed Fedora 40 on my desktop a couple of weeks ago to test if I could run it as a daily driver for gaming, streaming and studying.

    So far gaming has been remarkably better than I thought. Steam works like a charm and the few games I’ve played boot up out of the box. I’ve even managed to play an Epic Game Store game (was free so we grabbed it from there) with a friend online. This can be done via Heroic Game Launcher.

    Studywise it has all I need for coding and text editing.

    The only thing I haven’t been able to fully test (busy) is streaming, but I did set up OBS already and managed to get HW encoding to work on an AMD GPU.

    Still does take a little too much tinkering on the streaming side for a non computer savvy person (edit: not me, but someone like my wife for example), but I’m seriously considering about ditching Windows altogether if I don’t encounter anything critically borked in the coming weeks. The only game breaker in the foreseeable future I can think of will be whether or not I can fully dev and study MS Azure stuff in Linux, but I’d wager it’s not going to be a problem.
