People criticizing the ability of Linux to play games reminds me kind of like when people criticized solar power back in the early 90's. They would say how it's too expensive or it will never be able to produce the amount of electricity we need. Well, here we are.

Criticism of gaming on Linux some years back was very well deserved.
Barely any native games, and subpar drivers compared to windows didnt make it a good platform at all. And of course for basically almost every game the only choice was WINE, and more often than not it was impossible to make it work, or had game breaking issues.
Then came the Proton days and things started to change, and with the steam deck, it's really incredible how far we've come.

Its literally too expensive to install solar on my house to produce the energy I need.

Have you looked into diy? Over 60% of the installation cost from an installer can just be labor which is ridiculous because it's actually quite easy to do. Safely and without a ton of specialized tooling. They have inverters now that's basically everything you could possibly need in a single box which makes the install trivial

I remember looking into solar some 20 years ago. 5kWh battery bank was practically unheard of and iirc correctly was roughly $1k per kWh. Hopefully somebody with the time can come and correct numbers. Today you can find 5kWh battery banks for ~$2k.
Inverters I remember being about $5k-$10k for house sized and capable of running AC unit. Today roughly $1k-$2k.
Solar panels themselves I've not priced, but iirc I remember large arrays being $20k-$30k or more.
The cost to DIY a whole home off grid solar and battery bank system has gotten beyond easier, safer and an absolute fuck ton cheaper

large arrays can now be had for as little as 5-7k when buying an entire pallet. the rest of the prices are about right
