It never ends

The next step, you’re handwriting a fixit code because said ancient one off laptop won’t compile linux from scratch properly and some stupid piece of essential hardware is blocking your efforts to get to the shell first time.

Xubuntu is still too heavy, you have to strip it further and go for Lubuntu. Nothing like a 400 MB idle memory load on the desktop

Blaster_M,

It’s like the difference between going vegetarian (Linux) and vegan (completely FOSS only linux)

Blaster_M,

I would like MS Office to run in Linux… and not have to vomit even more money to Crossover to get it to work.

And when you play the “LibreOffice” card, I play the “Word doc with custom layout tables” trap card!

Blaster_M,

I prefer Transmission, as they have Windows ports as well.

Blaster_M,

Like that one song from that movie…

    If you’re going this route, a Galaxy Tab S7 Lite supports LineageOS

    Blaster_M,

    As long as we don’t end up with the Star Trek Wars

    Blaster_M,

    Quest Link or Virtual Desktop for PCVR? Windows.

    Valve Index is $$$$

    It doesn’t.

    Switching to Debian on my gaming pc

    Hello everyone - I have been wanting to ditch windows on my gaming pc for a while now, and since I have recently finished a large project, I now have the free time to switch. I am relatively comfortable with Debian having used it for a while on my web server as well as school laptop, but I am concerned about using it on my...

    Blaster_M,

    also dual boot first before going cold turkey

    Blaster_M,

    Blaster_M,

    I daily Windows 11… though I use Ubuntu for servers and Mint for my linux desktops (older hardware that doesn’t W11).

    Blaster_M,

    I’m more concerned about this “You only need 8GB of RAM (shared between the system and GPU)” bit. Go 16 or go home. I would expect 32GB from a 4 figure laptop, considering Windows laptops 1/4 the price have better specs.

    Blaster_M,

    Prepare now for the Mariah Carey invasion

    Blaster_M,

    The Federation is a bit salty they didn’t think to use this.

    Blaster_M,

    Lucky. The more recent (post-2020) ones are the bad batch probably,

    Blaster_M,

    Those 6TB drives have been a nightmare. High failure rates, all with the click of death.
