Choice paralysis is a surprisingly big issue.
I'm waiting for the parts for my new gaming PC build to arrive, and the amount of time I've spent choosing a distro has been asinine.
But I did make the choice to leave both the NVIDIA and Windows eco systems on my desktop after seeing most my games run fine on the steam deck ( along with disliking windows 11, and NVIDIA ending gamestream support)

Raw milk for cheese isn't quite as big of deal as enthusiasts make it out to be. It's more the homogenization process that destroys milk for cheese than pasteurization. I've had alot of success mixing pasteurized skim milk and pasteurized heavy Cream to the ratio I want to make various cheeses. Using Homogenized milk though nearly always failed or gave extremely low yields for me though.
Normal everyday disk soap is is safe to use on cast iron, but modern products that are marked "degreaser", "ultra", "platinum" etc will often have chemicals that will break down Polymerized oils. Great for keeping stainless steel shiny, very hard on your cast iron's seasoning though.
Surprisingly for a choice that I realize doesn't really matter, it still ends up burning alot of time researching.
Intially looked at Bazzite, which seemed great other than I wasn't a fan of it immutability, I've had to remove the read-only property from my steam deck a few times.
Then I looked at CatchyOS/Arch, decided to avoid that as I know I'm too lazy to read notes every update, and while I don't mind tinkering and fixing stuff.. I want it to be on my schedule lol.
Avoiding Debian, my server currently runs it, but I remember it giving me headaches installing older JREs on it to run modded minecraft servers.
So I'm going to try OpenSuse, not for any real valid reason other than the last time I tried Linux as my daily driver ( 2004/2005) it was the first distro that worked smoothly without any driver headaches.
