Yeah those are the steps I followed.

I have used bazzite before and it worked well, I just recently reinstalled fedora after using Windows for a month or so (Thought I would need it for class, but my teacher is okay with us doing our work on Linux so yay)

I will probably just rebase than

By making that comment you did engage with it… Not commenting at all would have been disengaging…

I wouldn’t advertise on the premise that Windows is a horrible, privacy invasive OS. Even though it’s true that would easily be grounds for Windows to claim defamation and pummel the entire thing into the ground with legal fees

That makes a lot of sense when you put it that way. For some reason I never factored that individuals were extending apps for their own use cases lmao

I feel like Linux alternatives often falter by trying to offer as extensive of a feature set as the proprietary options. GIMP would be better if it simplified it’s menu’s and focused on offering a strong central feature set, then expand on that core over time to offer a powerful workflow of it’s own.

I noticed this especially with FreeCAD, which is trying to do like 12 things for some reason? Just offer intuitive parametric cad and focus on it. We don’t need OpenSCAD inside FreeCAD because OpenSCAD is already it’s own thing for example.

Yeah that is wild. Back on windows I had a three monitor setup at one point and honestly rarely utilized the whole of it.

Ever since moving to Linux and learning about virtual desktops I have never felt the need for more than one monitor. So I could hardly imagine the need for seven beyond novelty lol.

Because they can as well as being fun and novel to try and beat the game in weird, unintuitive ways? There are challenge runs similar to this* in Minecraft that get super popular all the time.

Similar in a conceptual sense, I’ve no idea the relative difficulty of these two different games nor the differing challenges offered in playing these way

Awesome, I will look more into that!

Any modern distro.

There are GUI methods for adding repositories to every major software center to my knowledge, and it isn’t very hard.

Kate, and other modern file editors are more than equipped to handle some config files, that’s probably the simplest thing ever.

There are multiple GUI front ends for samba.

Don’t comment on the usability of Linux GUI if you haven’t even tried in the last 20 years like seriously

It is for the sake of combatting the commonly held belief that you can’t do anything without the terminal in Linux.

Progress on the accessiblility, and GUI centric applications and functionality in Linux has been huge in the last decade or two. It is now entirely possible to use a Linux system while rarely needing the terminal. And if you have someone techy helping set it up for you then it is possible to never have to.

This makes a lot of sense, though I can’t help but think about the fact that all these distros were once brand new projects that people had to go out on a limb and try out before they became what they are today.

Though I also guess these projects had more official dedicated support.

In any case, I won’t be the one going out on a limb for a while now lmao

I reckon if I go about trying to game again I will just go ahead and rebase to bazzite. Seems the easiest route

Rebasing is easily one of the coolest features of the atomic suite. I will definitely look into bazzite more in the future, just wish I knew about it before all this lmao

Yeah that’s why I put it in quotes, it just kept popping up when I searched for distros more inclined towards gaming lol.

Yeah I didn’t know about bazzite before going about this whole thing, but I am not going to try gaming on my system until nvk becomes more capable. Even then only light work.

I’m not necessarily a begginer as I have been using Linux for a few years now, but arch is definitely out of my wheelhouse

The thing that kept me attached to VR was Echo. Guess what they did to one of my literal favorite games

Not only is this comment stupid, but it isn’t even remotely true. There are tons of famous, powerful individuals in all stretches of the public sphere that actively support Trump and the Republican party.

This looks really cool! Didn’t know anything like it existed

I have been trying to understand this for a minute and I can’t seem to understand why you would use it on a personal workstation.

Like it makes sense for servers, and for deploying accross multiple systems in a corporate or public setting, but beyond that it seems like it is just adding unnecessary steps if you try to use it on your personal rig.

Maybe I’ll need to just give in and try it for a week to a month to see the appeal
