Do you have vsync off? Probably not the culprit since it's a crash, but I frequently get odd performance issues on the OLED model with Vsync on.

I think it's their upcoming Cosmic DE that's Wayland.

I've got very similar specs to this and the Pop Shop still runs like garbage. Have you tried installing the Cosmic store? It's what they built for the upcoming Cosmic DE but you can grab it from the Pop Shop as a replacement. It is infinitely more responsive.

Unless OP is running some other DE, it's likely not a Wayland issue. Pop!OS runs Gnome on X11 by default.

I run Pop and haven't run into this, but it sounds like it's freezing when under heavy network load. Are you wired or wireless? Can you pull up the system monitor before updating a package and see if anything is maxing out? Network, CPU, RAM, drives?

He's always been independent but caucuses with the Democrats.

I would pay money to watch her debate a Conan O'Brien Clutch Cargo version of Trump.

I HATE playing mobile games but my wife got me hooked on Dawncaster. It's a roguelike deck builder. I think it's like $4-5 and no micro transactions but there are expansion packs to add new zones and enemies. I've since picked them all up. It's regularly updated with free content packs and balance changes. The devs are very responsive with the community.

Pop! OS with an RTX 3080 has been rock solid for me.

Pop OS has been rock solid for me on an Nvidia GPU

Grawlix - the use of punctuation to convey swearing in comics or cartoons. @#!&

Malapropism - incorrectly using a word that sounds similar to the intended word. Like Mike Tyson famously saying that he'd "fade into Bolivian"

Malaphor - combining one or more metaphors incorrectly like "we'll burn that bridge then we come to it"

And the correct answer is "String or nothing".

No offense to anyone who's into this stuff, but what is the appeal in cataloging and discussing this what's in your pockets?

I loved DA:O. It was far from perfect, but at the time it was the closest we could get to a spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, and Icewind Dale - dark fantasy, tactical combat, and a decent story.

Then DA 2 came along and it felt like an entirely different series. I didn't get it at the time because of how simplified and arcadey it looked. I picked it up on some deep sale and got bored of it pretty quickly.

DA:I seemed to be trending back in the right direction with a bit more tactical combat. I never finished it but it was decent enough on a sale. This looks like they doubled down on DA 2 here and...meh.

Doubtful I would have gotten it anyway since it's EA but I would have loved to have been proven wrong.

Cool, thanks for that. I read John Romero's 'Doom Guy' earlier this year and it was pretty good. Not perfect, but it fed my nostalgia for the olden days of Commander Keen and Doom.

I think some of the later stuff aged well if you're into point and click adventure games and some "retro" looking graphics. But the early ones might be a little janky for anyone who didn't live through that era.

You have to type in the actions you want to do and they looked like this:
