@𝓒𝔂𝓡𝓲π“ͺ 𝓖𝓻π“ͺ𝔂 Alias is kind of like... a short cut but at command line. Bashrc is a file that boots up / starts up on your linux distro.

Actually I think I misspoke, it doesn't look like anything here gets closed / "resolved". Sorry about that Brice. :<

The Grub2 menu will show up normally when the hardware allows Grub to show up. Otherwise you might get an errored out disk, menu or in your case, just the grub > prompt

I recommend disabling both of those. You will have to do that in the BIOS. Hold down F2 when you boot up the device and you should get into the BIOS from there.

Regarding your ROG Ally X... Did you disable fast boot and secure boot? Sometimes Secure boot comes with some passwords or security certificates that you also have to verify deletion on. If you have both of those disabled, then continuing boot instead of doing Enroll MOK is perfectly fine. MOK is the "Machine Owner Key". You don't need this if you're not needing to sign your device and hardware. @Brice

I have figured out the issue. This is for Rider mostly, but you can probably apply this to other installs like VSCode... If using VSCode, skip the first 2 bullet points and head directly to #3. Steps to walk through to get this to work: 1) Install jetbrains toolbox : https://www.jetbrains.com/toolbox-app/ 2a) Launch your command line / bash 2b) run this code to find, grep, unzip the tarball, then install 
cd ~/Downloads
jtzip=$(find . | grep jetbrains*)
tar -zxvf $jtzip
rm $jtzip
jtdir=$(find . -type d | grep "jetbrains*")
$jtdir/jetbrains-toolbox
cd ~/Downloads
jtzip=$(find . | grep jetbrains*)
tar -zxvf $jtzip
rm $jtzip
jtdir=$(find . -type d | grep "jetbrains*")
$jtdir/jetbrains-toolbox
3) brew install dotnet 4a) Download unreal engine / editor from either source on github or from Epic Games themselves (You need to have an account for either of these) 4b) If downloading from source, you need to compile it (https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine) - I can walk you through this if necessary 4c) No need to compile from the epic games install (https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/linux) 5) Make a project with Unreal Engine 6) No solution file will be generated, but with Rider, open the .uproject file that was generated 7) Wait for all source code to be indexed 8) Have fun

Is there a "proper" directory where I'm supposed to be installing programs from tar.gz files?
@Sybad You don't need to install it in a "proper" directory and linux doesn't truly have a directory like Program Files or Program Files (x86) or Program Data. There are a few locations if you want to drop them there, that are standard-like, like /home or /usr/bin. For example, flatpak (a software manager / handler) installed in /usr/bin/flatpak. I moved my steam directory to /var/mnt/games which is handled on another drive in my computer. Some software is installed in /usr/bin/env. Some are installed in /var/home/[yourusername]/.local/share/. You could technically create your own in a separate drive and unzip the software into that location and alias to it in your .bashrc file. Hope that helps a bit.
