I'm hoping I may upgrade my system around Xmas or thereabouts, after the dust has settled on AMD's stuff. My next CPU will 100% be AMD. My current i7 is the only Intel chip I've used since way back. I basically went from a full RISCOS setup (I'm not sure what the CPU was in the add-on "PC" card either) to an AMD CPU. I never bought cutting edge, I went for value for money. My next GPU I'm still undecided on.

Interesting times!

Ventoy is my new favourite tool for Linux distro-hopping

I've been doing this for years with a GRUB menu but anything that makes this more convenient is always welcome

Not that I distro hop as I've been using the same Arch install since 2009! It's come in handy for new installs elsewhere though.
My experiences of Valve's VR on Linux

Great article and quite entertaining I'd love to go VR but need to upgrade CPU and GPU before that can even be considered. One consolation of late(r) adoption is it should all work better by then.

One question please: do you need Pulseaudio for this? I'm running Jack but do occasionally fall back to just ALSA for some games.

I love DL, so this is going to be a purchase. One question - I didn't watch all the video as I want to play it completely fresh - can you still use the grappling hook?
