I don’t know, I used to use Nokia as teenager… Things tend to change quite radically over years
I used to dual boot linux with windows Vista on an old laptop. I had only installed there the first assassin’s creed and Rome total war. Nothing else, never really connected to internet. After 1 year of not using it a part than few total war sessions, vista was so slow that was unusable. It spontaneously became slow for no reason. I completely removed it, left only linux, and that laptop survived 7 years of intensive use, and was still working 10 years later (just too old).
Vista was a scam
I don’t know if steam big picture use gamescope https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope.
I would guess it doesn’t, but I cannot be 100% sure, I haven’t used steam on my laptop since ages
It provides an alternative UI environment built and optimized for gaming. It has a separate windows manager, a complete ui, and a set of menus to simplify customization of whatever is needed for gaming and power saving.
And quick access to steam store.
It is extremely convenient if you like a console-like experience, but, if you are a tinker gamer, it has anyway a lot of nice additional features.
It is inconvenient as general purpose desktop os, because on update you basically lose packages not installed as flatpack
Wow!
What about the flaming and jelly windows? That was cool stuff
Powershell one liners are uglier than the worst winner of Obfuscated Perl Contest. Super cringe…
For research labs, dell workstations used to be great. Put debian on it and you could forget about problems. I don’t know if it is the case anymore.
The selling point of xps is that they are light. Many of us just need light laptops nowadays, as almost any hardware is more than capable of any task with the exception of gaming. But I have never gamed on laptops
Xps developer edition has been a thing since almost a decade. I bought a xps13 with ubuntu in Europe. I replaced it as soon as it arrived though. The built in OS was not “standard”.
I still use it almost daily. Battery has gone, but everything else works
Light ThinkPads are not cheap either
Main issue of mine was the wifi card. Awful. Everything else very nice.
No, its taste isn’t something that Italians would appreciate. It tastes like a cheap mix of a cheap German frankfurter and cheap calabrese 'nduja. It’s almost impossible to find it in Italy.
I have never seen it in my life in Italy
Thanks, so I don’t have to be that “actually” guy mentioning that 99% of Italians have never seen pepperonis in their life. You saved me
Thanks, let’s see how it well it works irl
What are performances compared to the original? How much is loss?
Ahahah, emacs is immortal
It borrowed the concept from old editor such emacs. It is a modern emacs. A single editor to do literally everything via plugins. The idea is that one needs to learn a single editor to master everything.
It is very powerful for people who do multiple things. It’s not worthy if the whole job is to simply writing java or c#. In that case a dedicated ide is better
VSCode is a modern emacs. Similar concept, a single editor to do everything via extensions. That’s the selling point. “young people” never had the chance to work with a similar concept, this is why they found it so revolutionary (despite being a concept from the 70s).
I use it because I am forced to use a windows laptop at work, and emacs on windows is a painful experience
Teeth are absolutely not cosmetic. Infection of a tooth can lead to dangerous consequences up to sepsis. Your parents didn’t have teeth because they had them removed by a dentist to avoid abscesses.
Guys, please don’t underestimate dental health
