  • As someone that tends to learn most by doing. Most of these comments are excellent my only suggestion is to try it. Most Linux distros come with live images which you dont need to install to test out.

    Just download the ISO and put it on a USB and then boot from the usb. You can even make a multiboot USB with ventoy.

    Or you can use distrosea to demo a distro in a browser.

    I also highly suggest using the arch wiki for research. It will probably go into much more depth than you need at first but it will also not dumb things down or over simplify things for you so you might actually learn. Take this doc on what a DE is for instance, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Desktop_environment















  • Didn’t know that the dreamcast version was superior. I’ll have to check that out.

    I could be wrong but I don’t think that the decomp/recomp tools are available for Dreamcast the way they are for n64. Like if I want a game to run natively on Linux without an emulator whike doing things like raytracing then it seems like the n64 games would be where I’d have to start.

    Unless there are decomp/recomp tools for the dreamcast?
