Buying a game on Steam gets you the same perpetual license for your copy of the game as it does on GoG (the same as any software). The difference is Steam’s DRM (requiring the Steam Client to run the game). AFAIK Steam have said in the past that they have a plan to remove it if Steam shuts down.

Here’s a video that lays it out in detail as to what game ownership means amongst other things https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUAX0gnZ3Nw.

The big question about all this stuff is how far companies (both game and non-game software) can push their “you don’t own your software” agenda before facing a significant legal challenge and what the outcome of that legal challenge will be.

Depending on how many HDD bays you need you can just buy a refurbished office Dell or HP and it’ll do the job more than adequately.

I pronounce it AUR btw.

(In all seriousness I pronounce it like Aura without the 2nd A)

That is 2 words (or 3 depending how you count the abbreviation). You’d think a dictionary could get that right.

Aye, Cinnamon i’d say is pretty Windows like now (taskbar, start menu and tray) but definitely not as good as KDE. The average user would be happy with either I think.

If you didn’t know, Ubuntu is based on Debian.

Mint has the Cinnamon desktop environment which isn’t that different from Windows/KDE. You’re probably thinking of Gnome?
