What makes it stupid? At least it's relevant instead of random nonsense names like "noto" "callenda" "amiri" etc (apologies if all these names have rich etymologies)
Right but look at the image, there's a clear difference between the boxers and what looks like normal or jeans shorts. The long pants have similar styling.
I would call anything under water wet with the specific exception of stuff like aerogel that is hydrophobic, because it's insulated by a layer of air. I think at enough pressure that would be overcome and the material would become wet.
Heat and water are not analogous because heat is pure energy. Water is a physical liquid. You're laser focused on a single definition of a word that's used in many other ways. Anyone trying to tell you that water isn't wet is engaged in semantic foolery.
There's a 100% chance that his mic issues are not driver related, but instead are Discord's fault. They are classically awful at providing feature parity for Linux.
Have him fiddle with the audio settings, it's probably either the echo cancellation or noise reduction. As another commenter mentioned there are third party solutions for both.
To be clear, the vast majority of "games with anti-cheat" work perfectly well on Linux. It's just the ones where developers have chosen to either explicitly block Linux (e.g. Fortnite) or to use invasive rootkit anti-cheat (e.g. Riot games, FACEIT, etc.) which wouldn't be allowed to work on Linux anyway because it's a really stupid idea to let random gaming companies have access to your ring 0.
While pretty much any distro can do this, I will warn you that it's not the greatest idea. GNOME and KDE are both massive software suites and you'll have a lot of redundant programs, e.g. two GUI file managers, and sometimes you'll get unexpected behavior. There are also some look and feel issues that might crop up with apps getting style hints from two places. Again, it's nothing super major, and it's been a while since I've done this so maybe it's improved, but any time I've tried I end up rolling back or reinstalling with only one big DE.
It's much less of an issue to have one big DE and then potentially several other more modular window managers, as those have much less opinionated payloads. I've got sway and hypr installed alongside GNOME.
