This is for real the Linux desktop year for me, went through the switch just before the new year. Had to reinstall a couple times but no big deal, and I get to learn as well.
Not sure if out-of-the-box distros are now that user friendly yet or not, but I remember getting Ubuntu running several years ago was frustrating (no sound, bad sound quality etc) and now running EOS was pretty smooth. Pretty sure something like Mint will be user friendly enough for the general population.
So the article from valve is to support those who use NTFS anyway, but if I’m formatting the lib drive as BTRFS, it should be buttery smooth? (Probably not that smooth but gotta make the pun)
Thanks for the recommendation, will definitely look into this!
I see, you’re probably right…I remember trying mounting ext4 drive on Windows and couldn’t get it to work. I’ll probably experiment a little with NTFS, maybe the devs have worked it out? But I’ll keep your warning in mind. Thanks for the input!
I see…that could probably affect a shared steam library I guess? I’m aiming to use almost exclusively though, wish me luck!
Glad you’re happy with EOS, I hope it will fit me as well.
While I don’t have technical issues with Windows so far… they are obviously having a massive FOMO at the shitty cash-grab business model of many tech platforms (especially with the rumor of Win 12…) and I’m not OK with that.
Thanks for your reply! That’s reassuring.
Yes, it’s already a bit shitty, so it’s time to be an active part of the Linux community. Year of the Linux desktop amirite!
Persona 5 Royal.
Got a new job this year! Will start next year and I’ll have some time off in between so I can visit my family.
I’m all supportive for the reduction of meat consumption, but I believe even collective individual action won’t cut it.
Well, I totally agree with you. I somewhat fall into that category as well (younger-ish generation anxious for the future).
I think he just meant that we are a failure to our own ideals, for such a smart species we failed to be responsible or keep these companies accountable. Lets say that dinosaurs had millions of years of existence and we achieved more in thousands of years, but wouldn’t it be a shame if our achievements is what led us to our own extinction? Icarus’s fall would be nothing in comparison to ours, and that in itself can be considered a failure.
Once we see no snowfall where it should be, arctics not freezing as they usually do, we know we fucked up. Wait…we’ve been seeing these patterns last year didn’t we?
if you type their name often enough, you will inevitably type them as softdiks.
That post was HP. LG is a korean company which makes lots of home appliances like washing machines, fridges, vac cleaner, etc.
I have low expectation but damn…didn’t think that they’d be that low.
We all are trying to do our parts you know, I used to like cars when I was in HS, now I don’t even consider having one. I’ll stick to public transport and will get an electric last mile transport.
These people sucks ass. They have the monetary power to make real change but decided to double down. Nowadays investments in renewables have good returns and will be viable for the next couple decades, but they care too much for their previously invested monies and want to milk the people to the last drop.
I skin and cut my mangoes off the seed, devour the fruit around the seed and throw it away along with the skin, clean up, then eat the cut up fruit. That way I can be as messy as I want then enjoy the rest of the fruit while being clean.
Yeah, it’s just a popular tactic for politicians to scare people then show that they are working on something to mitigate the “threat”. Immigrants, muslims, the jew, the non believers, the radiation (but not the pollution bcs it is a money maker) etc etc
Wouldn’t this thread be super biased to Linux users since those who use linux as a daily driver tend to talk about it more often than win/mac users?
I’m in Asia and receive OOTO emails all the time, meanwhile we work even during holidays 🙃. A co worker is a Chilean, and during her 3 weeks leave to go back home after years of not taking any leave, she worked day and night, slept only 3 hours the whole stay. We Asians were successfully brainwashed into the hustle culture
I thought we have phased out hexavalent chromium from almost 20 years ago?? Am I missing something…
