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.

apt install build-essential
apt build-dep emacs
wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-30.1.tar.xz
tar -xf emacs-30.1.tar.xz
cd emacs-30.1
./configure —prefix=/usr/local
make
make install

Edit: forgot cd

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

Road Rash?

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

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.
