It was a death sentence back then, but now I bet those with a threadripper with huge RAM can tank it until it hit ulimit.

RustyNova, in You should

Ah yes. Uni(x bomb)

Wilzax, in Accurate?

I fear technology, but in the “Technology will destroy us all unless we get a really good handle on it” kind of way. I use debian.

Such a shame they only research cs and teach new cs students.

Solving the Rupert-Compfzkopf problem with non-euclidean endofunctors is not useless 😡

heeplr,

Great, now find a project to apply it and collect your participation trophy. :-P

prettybunnys,

Listen, I AM going to work this into a gitlab pipeline somehow now.

When do I collect my trophy, I need a deadline otherwise I’ll give up.

Polar, in Driving an AE86 apparently feels just like using wayland with NVIDIA

I love this thread.

Linux users constantly talk about how Linux just works and Windows is garbage, but then half these comments are talking about how you should buy an entirely different computer to make Linux run with FEWER issues.

Windows may have it’s problems, but I don’t need to buy an entirely new PC to make it work. AMD, Nvidia, Intel, doesn’t matter. It just works.

This thread is utterly braindead but nvidia users are not completely out of luck. Use the proprietary drivers with xserver instead of wayland and it works fine (speaking from personal experience). Xserver has it’s own issues and will probably be phased out in favour of wayland in the future but hopefully by then, it will be able to support nvidia better.

hemko,

Well Linux just works. Unless if you buy hardware from a company that actively tries to fuck you in the ass for using Linux

What you’re basically saying, is like whining that Windows doesn’t run on a macbook

What the fuck the do you have a life question is so offensive! Stop trying to just be edgy in memes!

I’m so sick of these stupid stereotypes that the Linux community has. I’ll have you know that I use both Debian and Fedora and I do not in fact have a life.

Littleborat, in Accurate?

Looks like I had the right distro until it spammed my root partition with snaps and suffocated itself.

Back to Spyware

I tried Mint. It wasn’t that great. While I dont use Ubuntu specifically, I love Gnome

EatYouWell,

The Cinnamon desktop is pretty awesome, though, but you can just install it on another Debian district.

Octopus1348,

I also used it, and liked it, then Plasma, made it look like Windows 12 (looked like a combination of Windows and macOS), but I’m now on GNOME again. I might use something else in the future tough.

BaardFigur,

KDE Plasma is still really unintuitive and weird to use. Maybe they’ll get better eventually, but meanwhile I’m on Gnome

Octopus1348,

What are your problems exactly? For me, it was that GNOME was more stable and had some trackoad gestures. And on Plasma, something just felt small. I tried changing the text size, but it was still harder to read.

bastion,

Gnome stability, hands down.

My ideal OS: all of KDE’s features locked behind ‘advanced’ menus.

Acts in every other way (including stability) like Gnome.

I really want to like KDE. It just feels so much like the unnecessary is put to the front, rather than provided as a side feature.

@EuroNutellaMan@lemmy.world avatar

Weird I always have the opposite feeling with KDE: everything is big. Mostly the icons and bar at the bottom. However tbf it might be because I am used to Xfce4 and only recently went back to KDE

BaardFigur, (edited )

You also had to do every configuration on every screen and toolbar individually.
For a multi-screen setup. Yikes

NaoPb,

I like Trinity because it looks like old Windows environment :)

BaardFigur, (edited )

I tried them all (all Mint DEs)

BeigeAgenda,
@BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca avatar

Good you did a thorough test, what distro did you end up choosing?

BaardFigur,

Fedora. I don’t know if I’ll stay there forever though

BeigeAgenda,
@BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca avatar

Well there’s always Arch 😁

BaardFigur,

My brother says so as well. Maybe I should listen

BeigeAgenda,
@BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca avatar

I’m sure Arch and Manjaro are worth a try, back in the day I tried RedHat/SuSE/Slackware/Debian/Ubuntu and ended up with Mint Cinnamon.

The closest to Arch I tried was using Debian Sid, but got annoyed when I one time had to battle with getting it up and running after a dist upgrade. I really hope Arch handles those upgrades better.

The most annoying with that upgrade was that the UI changed to an early version of Gnome Shell, I think that prompted me to switch to Mint MATE

JCreazy, in A repost from r/linuxmemes - Because I saw the original comic

Mint Debian Edition FTW

DontRedditMyLemmy, (edited )

Newb here: what’s the diff?

I don’t use arch BTW

Hominine, (edited )
@Hominine@lemmy.world avatar

From my limited understanding it’s based on Debian instead of Ubuntu (which is based on Debian). The purpose is to have a fallback in the event Canonical snaps Ubuntu out of existence.

shotgun_crab,

Good pun, even if unintended

This meme would be far more accurate if Wayland was flickering constantly ;)

Pickle_Jr, in I don't need a declarative operating system for my home server... but it would be fun...

What have you done to me, I’m in this position myself too because of the picture.

I’m late to the Nix party. I do the bare minimum just for my at home media server. I guess it’s a good time to get caught up on my Linux knowledge again.

Do it. Don’t just configure your server, configure all your servers… Forever. How hard can it be?
