I mean… there’s porn

To somewhat quote Jurassic Park… hackers… find a way.

Yeah I find it a lot snappier in Fedora than on windows.

AFAIK Libreoffice only uses Java for limited things and isn’t a requirement.

Pretty sure it’s mostly C++

It’s great if you get used to it and put in the time to set it the way you want it. I find IDE’s very bloated.

May your vimrc be passed down through the ages

Sausages everywhere

I’d say Voyager is the most similar.

Memmy is pretty buggy. I was regularly bug finding to help out but unfortunately development seems to have dropped off a cliff now.

I’m not even sure the devs are using Lemmy at all anymore.

I mostly use Avelon and Voyager. Lemma has a great video player.

I’ve also been very happy with Avelon.

Oh yeah. But it doesn’t auto update like Firefox or something.

I really wish it did. On windows I use winget to update it.

There’s auto update?

Making coffee by grinding the beans and using an Aeropress.

I agree, I actually use Silverblue as well. The only thing I added was a script to auto update distrobox too.

Removing heat energy is what your freezer does, by transferring it outside of the freezer box.

You can’t just remove heat by adding electromagnetic energy. Absorbing energy from the electromagnetic radiation makes heat.

Edit: whelp, TIL

Silverblue is my daily driver. Everything is in flatpaks, which update automatically, or in distrobox which I have a bash script that updates automatically.

System updates download in the background and just boot automatically the next time you boot up. I just ignore them.

Fedora is nicest when you use a lot of flatpaks imo. They just update constantly in the background without reboot.

Only system updates need reboot.

Weird. Nvidia? I’ve never had a crash either

I haven’t had much issue installing multiple.

The biggest problem I’ve had is if you then want to uninstall one. Usually have to start over.

Something like nixos might be able to handle that much better.

My thought exactly

I think that time has passed. Many distros default to wayland now.

Use Wayland unless you have issues.

Completely disagree

Great. Now do split panel!

Did you try to disable the load legacy rom option from that thread?

Virt-manager is my preferred but I only have integrated graphics anyway.

Very odd. The drivers are built into the kernel.

Did you try to install the drivers right away? You shouldn’t have to.

Edit: perhaps this thread is helpful.

My solution years ago when windows used to do this to me with a dual boot was to move windows to a virtual machine instead, which works great for me!

Would recommend as much ram as possible though. I find performance great with 16gb of ram to share between host and the vm.

Windows updates would often mess up boot prior to me switching. Very annoying.

The point is your first sentence?

Green grass lawns.

Lesson I also learned when I started out with Linux… don’t fuck with grub unless you really understand what you’re doing! Borking grub is a right of passage imo.

I’m not sure how to fix your issue (I gave up on dual booting and just have windows in a virtual machine, so Windows doesn’t mess up grub).

I always keep backups of the working grub config in case I need to restore. Just boot into a version of Linux on a usb key and copy the working config.

Yeah they’re all in on snaps. Vote with your distro choice.

I love my Thinkpad.

Lots of Linux devs love their Thinkpads.

The result is that Thinkpads are very well supported. They’re also generally very well made so I hope to use it for a decade.

While I agree, definitely you need Flatseal to change permissions at times.

Yep virtual box works fine on Linux. But windows in a virtual machine if you really need something lie office.

Yuh

Thanks for linking the actual article!

Yeah my x1 carbon thinkpad has great battery life with Linux.

I’ll use power saver in fedora if needed.

Most secure? 🤔

He thinks that the ‘annoying’ command line editors can’t do autocomplete…

Obviously not well informed lol.
