To be clear, at this point BattleEye requires no effort from the devs to get working on Linux. On the contrary, the EFT devs have gone out of their way to ensure it does not run on Linux, and have deleted forum posts requesting a change in this policy.

The EFT devs have their heads very far up their asses when it comes to Linux. They specifically banned the platform and have deleted forum posts about the topic. Fuck em, there are better games in the genre by this point (Hunt Showdown runs great on Linux for example...)

Boy, you'd sure think that if someone was a "race supremacist" that some of those views would be among their most controversial comments, huh? Instead of pretty objective statements combined with a good amount of anti-racist sentiment?
Yeah no shit Sherlock
No it wouldn't, and there is plenty of discussion about those topics. What will get your comment deleted is thoughtless parroting of literal US propaganda.
Oh no God forbid people have consistent and coherent political views
I don't think this author has any idea what she's talking about. The italic paragraph near the top attempts to justify her ignorance, but she's very clearly drinking the AI CEO Kool-Aid. AGI is not a stop down the road that LLMs are taking us on, it's a hypothetical destination that we don't even know if we're driving toward. We can't even define what causes consciousness yet, so there's no way for us to model it digitally. It will happen eventually, but even the non-PR quotes in the article are hedging based on rough estimates and general trends. It's totally possible that we go another century before true AGI, and that's ignoring the real potential for big losses in scientific progress given current political happenings.
This is the first watch I've ever seen that I would actually wear, or would think looks cool on someone else.
Have you tried recently? We've been pretty much at parity for years now. Almost every game that doesn't run is because the devs are choosing to make it that way.
Depending on how willing you are to set things up for her, you might want to take a second look at either the Voyager, or any other QMK-compatible keyboard. It's incredibly flexible firmware that lets you define fully custom layouts. If she's doing a lot of typing, it might be worth the effort to make (and adjust to) a custom layout with quick access to her most used modifiers and symbols.
I've got the Ergodox, so my recommendation is entirely off the strength of that product. If I were buying from them today, I'd probably get the Moonlander, but that's because I use my keyboard with my home desktop 99%+ of the time. If you plan to travel, commute, or otherwise use your keyboard in multiple places, I think the low profile keys will be perfect for that.
As for add-ons, there isn't really anything to add for the Voyager. If you're considering the Moonlander, I would be tempted by The Platform. It's a full third of the already hefty price of the keyboard, but it looks like the dream tilt solution. The legs on the Ergodox, which look to be the same legs as on the Voyager, are serviceable, but the interface that keeps them in place can wear out needing replacement, and they can only tilt so much (the Voyager has less I believe, so you can still tilt it but at less esoteric angles). The platform will let you get nearly vertical with each hand if you want, which is kind of the ergonomic dream. Although, tbf, after using my Ergodox for a couple years, I rarely tilt it at all and just use it flat on the desk along with the included wrist/palm supports

Yeah this is a big reason why I'm not trying to get back into software dev. It seems like every job not already threatened or eliminated by AI is training or using it.
