The best games these days are almost all indie games, stuff about AAA & ray tracing etc etc is more of a nerd hobby fueled by the industry rather than entertainment.
Also there are many retro games that used to be AA & they are just as good today as they were 20 years ago. If you want good gameplay there are so many amazing games to play a lifetime is not enough to even scratch the surface.
New users shouldn’t be recommended to use Arch flavors.
foobar2000 is a counter example, but yeah the mobile space has none of those
Luckily duck is good enough-ish.
it’s embarrassing but for me it’s thinkfan. Instead I wrote my own solution in bash.
I don’t think it would be great for a pie hole on a gigabit connection. (if you have s slow connection then it’s good ofc)However there are use cases it’s good for. Print server, smb server, kitchen radio with Pyradio, retro gaming etc
Immutable distros like Silverblue or Bazzite are the only path I see that can work for normies. However flatpak itself has to mature more, theming anomalies need to be dealt with somehow for example.
Mint is only good to ease a technically inclined person into the linux world.
You have to reboot yes, however only once. The step where you boot into your snapshot is redundant.
You are making it unnecessarily difficult for yourself. Rolling back a snapshot that you made before the intentional messing around is less effort than rebooting twice for seemingly no reason. Booting into a snapshot is not sandboxing, it’s not an added layer of security against a malicious package.
I think he was at the very least rather gifted in some ways. Then his brain declined and then declined again and again. Substances + alcohol + covid fog + aging?
You could buy any Asus gaming mouse with user replaceable switches and order a bag of Huano silent switches from AE. (if the noise increases or the switch dies just replace the switc+h)
This is not a cheap option, but could potentially endure for a longer time.
Chrome needs to be reinstalled every once in a while for some reason, or it will underperform.
Consistent illumination and shadows is a rabbit hole we really don’t want to hop into.
Outside of very obvious anomalies even a trained eye will have a hard time discerning what’s going on.
Mozilla, please refocus the resources to improve performance, or let FF disappear!
This whole thing with the private data collection is meaningless, if the browser is increasingly niche.
Spent 5 minutes thinking about this just now and it seems plausible to me. That person has yet to give a reason to doubt them kind of reasoning…
You are completely right, they’ve dropped the ball. Of course it’s open source, so the devs are not duty bound to keep the system running well. it’s just that my trust is shaken that I could just set up grandma’s computer with this and not need to maintain it…
These days even Apple and Microsoft struggle with testing their updates and pushing out updates that are not broken or system breaking. Maybe the grans of the world should just become more tech savvy. ;)
Then again if long term Fedora immutable systems only fail like this once every two years, then we are not really worse than needing to deal with Windows Rot.
It doesn’t matter much in this case. Once ntsync is working, we all will benefit just the same. (Bottles, Lutris etc need to implement it as well)
Basically it doesn’t matter if you can use the webapps.
Mint is the best traditional noobie distro, while I would suggest Silverblue, if you just want to use a robust system that requires far less maintenance effort than a traditional distribution with limitations that may are may not affect you at all.
Now give me half that performance for $150, without enforcing that whatever it’s called bar thing! (neither of these two things will happen)
