Costs more to repair than it’s worth is absolutely a valid distinction. It’s not repair cost vs. new car cost, but repair cost vs cost of a similar, fully functional used car. So, if the repair is 3K but you get a similar (or better) used car without issues for 2K, repairing is not necessarily worth it.
Of course that always depends on the cost of the repair, the current used car market, the comparable worth of the car and the available budget.
HDR actually works fairly well on Linux these days. Been using nobara for the better part of a year now and almost every game I’ve tried, that has HDR support, just worked out of the box.
