Nope, a lot of software will try to bundle as much dependencies as needed by default, which makes building from source much easier. Distributions will then "unbundle" them, to keep packages reusing system libraries as much as possible

Ok, just did. Works fine.

cd emacs-30.1

Nah, building from source takes a few minutes unless you are building a web browser.

I love this game. The soundtrack and atmosphere are perfect

I would love to grow this community more, meet more people interested in this subject, and grow in my passion for arcade racing games!

For me: the Out Run OST. Everyone listens to and praises Nintendo OSTs or Square Enix, but Out Run is something else. I have rarely listened to video game music that catchy.

It seems that was the first webcam, while Connectix’s product was the first widely marketed webcam like device.

Fun fact: Connectix made the first web cam.

Edit: not the first, but “the first widespread commercial” webcam

I understand it completely. However, my point of view is that, even in the case of the Amazon searches, it was easily disableable. I prefer Ubuntu flavors over base Ubuntu, which are run by the community and only do the bare minimum for Canonical to approve them as flavors (like add firefox as a snap). All of that bare minimum work can be easily undone in my opinion. Though, I understand avoiding Canonical when possible.

In my opinion, go with Ubuntu. First, any issues you have with Ubuntu can be fixed easily; snaps can be easily removed, as well as amazon links, gnome tweaks and the rest. Second, unlike Debian, Ubuntu has the hardware enablement stack, which means that any supported Ubuntu release will run on hardware newer than that release, and your graphics card should run with a much newer driver. Any gaming distros built on Ubuntu are probably fine, but will only give marginal improvement to FPS.
