Seconding vim as the universal Unix/Linux editor. It takes a while to become a real vim pro, but learning basic usage is very helpful. Escape to switch to normal mode (where letters trigger functions instead of just typing), i to switch to input mode, : in normal mode to enter commands, :wq to save and quit, :q! to exit without saving - that alone should be enough to cover a lot of basic use cases. If you ever want to learn more, there are plenty of tutorials online.

I've heard TLOU called many things, but shovelware is a new one.

Voyager works after logging out and back in, if you're looking for a short term solution?

Tree Style Tabs forever, baby! Simple vertical tab bars can't even hope to compete.

I suppose I'd prefer if short games weren't overly expensive, but I never liked the hours per dollar thing. I don't like replaying games. I'd rather buy six two-hour indie games for ten dollars each and have each one be at least somewhat unique and engaging, than spend 60 on a sprawling hundred hour AAA game filled mostly with repetition and busywork. Life's too short for that, you know?

man is standard Unix manual pages, while info is a documentation format introduced/popularised by GNU. info pages usually have a lot more information (sometimes including tutorials, guided examples, links to different pages and sections, etc (depending on the project maintainer obviously)) but man pages are the standard and basically everything has one. If you run info [program] for something without a dedicated info page, it will show the man page instead.

Weak/no auto aim? Depends on the game you're playing, but I imagine CSGO doesn't have any. Maybe you could find a different shooter that accommodates joystick use?

Hot take, but I actually love well implemented radial menus on PC. When games bother to reset your cursor to the centre of the circle you can just quickly flick the mouse in a certain direction to make your selection, which is faster than most other mouse menus and a lot more comfortable than trying to reach for the 9 key.

This might sound weird, but are you actually engaged with what you're playing? Maybe you need to find some higher intensity games to keep your attention.

Might be a bit too heavyweight for your tablet, but both GNOME and KDE have tablet/touch modes which activate automatically if they detect touch input but no mouse. If auto detect doesn't work you can turn it on manually in Settings -> Workspace Behaviour -> General Behaviour -> Touch Mode in KDE. Not sure about GNOME.

There's a difference between the Fediverse exposing and federating your posts and likes, and Facebook's aggressive harvesting of engagement data, device metrics, location, etc. With federation, they can only get a fraction of a fraction of the data they usually get.

Ubisoft has announced its first ever Web3 game, Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, which will launch on the Oasys blockchain.

Oasys is a blockchain which was established in February 2022 and is backed by multiple companies, including Bandai Namco, Sega, Ubisoft, and Square Enix. It is marketed as a specialist blockchain for games.

Ubisoft describes Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles is a "PvP tactical RPG experimental game" and is currently in development for PC. You can take a look at a trailer below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKPixIolnYw

Ubisoft hasn't fared well in its previous attempts with blockchain. Its NFT plaform Quartz was criticised by French trade union Solidaires Informatique, which represented Ubisoft Paris employees. Following this, those in charge at Ubisoft said players "don't get it", whilst giving away special Ghost Recon Breakpoint NFTs to the game's developers to thank them for their efforts, rather than monetary compensation.

In September, Ubisoft CEO Yves told Eurogamer the company was continuing to look at "all the Web3 capabilities", despite a lack of success with Ubisoft Quartz and internal pushback from staff.

Other gaming companies which are validators for Oasys have also been involved with NFTs, blockchain, or Web3 previously. Square Enix announced Symbiogenesis, which it touted as a "unique experience" in a "virtual (turn-based) adventure", earlier this year. The company also sold Final Fantasy 7 NFTs as part of the game's 25th anniversary celebrations.

At the beginning of 2022, it was also revealed that Sega had filed trademarks for two projects called Sega Classics NFT Collection and Sega NFT. Sega CEO Haruki Satomi said the company "would like to try out various experiments" with regards to NFTs and play-to-earn, though it would be guided by "what will be accepted and what will not be by the users".

It depends which specific product you get, but a lot of it is just generically meatesque protein. I find their sausage rolls are indistinguishable from similarly priced pork sausage rolls, but the mince is more of a substitute than an imitation. It doesn't have the same texture, so you can easily tell it's not meat. I quite like using it for stuff like chilli con carne tho
