Touché.

For the bedroom, a baby monitor makes sense. Not sure why you need one connected to the Internet though.

You asked for help and someone took time out of their day to try and help. I’m assuming you’re not paying them to help you, and they have no other reason to offer help other than kindness, and you return that kindness with rudeness. All you needed to say was “I already tried that and it didn’t work, thanks for the tip though. Is there anything else you know of that I could try? I’ve done everything on ProtonDB with no luck” and you probably would’ve had more assistance. It doesn’t cost anything to be nice.

I’ll definitely keep you in mind! Best of luck trying to help folks out in the future. I know it can be a minefield at times. I’m not super technically inclined but I’ve definitely done my fair share of helping strangers on the internet with other things in the past and I know how people can get. I’ve heard it’s especially bad with techie stuff.

Jeez, sorry you had to go through that. No idea why some people are so rude out of the gate when someone tries to help out. If it’s any consolation, I think you did a great job dealing with OP respectfully, and your initial comment would’ve been very helpful I’d think.

I’m not very techie at all but after using some guides I learned how to dual boot and distro hop. I’m now all in on CachyOS and have been super happy with it. Ditched windows for good a few months ago.

+1 for CachyOS, I’ve been running it for a few months now and it’s my new favourite. I’ve run Mint, Ubuntu, and Bazzite but none of them felt right to me. Cachy has been great since day one. I mostly use it for gaming but also like to do non-gaming tasks too and it handles it all very well and very quick and smooth.

Fair enough. I don’t usually bother with graphics mods, I tend to stick with gameplay mods, which aren’t that hard to configure correctly. But if I decide to give Skyrim a fresh coat of paint I’ll definitely look into mod packs more.

Looking forward to the update.

I’m no stranger to modding Skyrim, I did it a ton on windows and Xbox, it’s just MO2 specifically that I’m having issues with. I don’t mind learning mod dependencies and such, I’m used to that stuff.

That being said, I appreciate your comment and I’ll look into it a bit more. I’ve never considered mod packs before, because why waste the money if I can do it myself? But I’m in a similar situation as OP now (newborn plus work, considering school again) so maybe it’ll be worth the cost to have some free time back.

Currently trying to mod Skyrim on Linux myself. I’ve got it to work now but it was a pain. I’m using MO2, it was really janky for a bit and still acts up a lot. I’m at the point now of always having MO2 open even if I’m not playing Skyrim, because closing and reopening it causes issues for me. Have you had any luck since posting this? I’m in the same boat as you, just a couple steps ahead, so I might be able to help out a little.
