I always thought the Rocky Theme or Alan Parsons Project Sirius would work great. But I’ve never really tried.

I control a htpc with an Xbox gamepad. Bazzite I don’t even think about updates, it just happens instead of saying “should probably update” and unplugging my nose and keyboard from my other PC. Or leaving mouse and keyboard sit on the floor in front of my tv cabinet.

Most handheld suppliers are shipping windows, replacing it with an immutable system is definitely the way to go. On screen keyboards are play I guess, but even my experience just doing a regular distro on a tablet it was a hassle.

Look, I’m not going into detail on this anymore. But I want to say I’m surprised by how much people are pushing back. “Oh instead of using bazzite, you could setup rsync to do an a/b switch with your server if something goes wrong”. (Elsewhere in these comments).

I just didn’t think it would be so much for people to accept there are use cases for why people do things differently to them.

You think I should tell a You think I should tell a 6 year old kid to fix a broken Linux system? I’m sorry this has turned from discussion into bullshit.

Because when I finish my 10 hour shift, get home from my 2 hour commute, to my 6 year old kid crying because she managed to fuck her Minecraft machine up somehow, I don’t want to spend my only free half hour that day trying to work or what she did.

That’s not a learning opportunity for her. Even if she had the patience to sit there and watch me try to fix it, she won’t r get what I’m doing. And after getting up at 5.30, getting home at 7.30 watch how good I am at not just swearing at the thing instead.

A htpc in which you just need to launch media

A steam Deck like handheld in which you just want your game launcher

A PC for a kid whom you don’t want messing around with system files

A PC for your technologically inept family members to just use as an email/browser/word processor

One I’m always interested in but never tried is Void Linux

I’ve been told I’m more adaptable, more ready to meet the organisation where it is and find solutions than coming in telling them what to do and being staunch about it.

I’ve treated the team fairly and let them have more autonomy to do things and support them. The previous manager had several conflicts with the team over how they wanted the work done.

I’m not American, but I don’t understand how voting for republican would slow down fascism. It would strengthen their position to get more votes, right?

I’m using popos but I’m not sure what kind of advice you need. You use apt to update and not Pacman. If you want to play windows games I recommend a combination of Heroic and faugus. This isn’t necessarily pop specific though.

I get it. No, I misunderstood and thought this was software for Mac.

Should this be posted in an Apple/Mac group then? Feels like you’d get better response that way?

Ubuntu feels a bit slow, the snaps I think is that problem as they launch slower. But Ubuntu-based distros don’t use snaps (Mint, popOS).

There are also Ubuntu-based distros that don’t use gnome (Mint, popOS).

There are also non-Ubuntu distros that do use gnome. There’s people who like gnome and people who don’t, but it’s not “bloat” and it’s not limited to Ubuntu.

My kids birthdays, and for our state election to be over

Budgie was started by Ikey Doherty for Solus. So quick background on Ikey, he does things because he thinks he has a better way of doing it, and he doesn’t do it for others so much as himself.

So we could probably say Budgie came about because Ikey wanted a desktop that suited him and his new (at the time) Solus project. And now it just goes on.

He’s at it again too. His work on Aeryn OS is all about building his own tools. He reinvents the wheel because it’s what suits him.

That corner spot is looking pretty sweet.

I usually sit right where that book and mug are in the picture, and I can just slide my way into the corner if I feel like.

The Grey Death virus, and the Ambrosia vaccine!, are controlled by UNATCO and billionaire Bob Page is making a play to take control of the world from the Illuminati

Not a pro, but I’m using Endeavour os on a 1st gen Surface Go. it works fine but KDE has some touchscreen quirks I don’t like.
