KISSmyOS,

oof, that was aggressively cringe.

KISSmyOS,

I’ll take a foldable solar panel, a tablet PC with its entire storage full of porn, and the dog.
Everything else I need I’ll trade in exchange for a half hour in my dog-guarded porn booth.

KISSmyOS,

It’s a different philosophy. KDE gives you a default setting, and all the options you need to fuck it up customize it.
Gnome gives you the default and an API for extensions to customize it. Install one of the big ones like V-Shell and you’ll have more options than you know what to do with.

KISSmyOS,

Which is false. Gnome is as configurable as KDE.

KISSmyOS,

I feel like that would be the wrong question to ask my wife while she’s venting.

KISSmyOS,

I don’t think many areas exist where you have both a need and political will for building nature bridges, and also large predators.

(only way to get rich is to work more hours than someone else)

In our current system, this is not how you get rich, AT ALL.
Billionaires aren’t people who worked 3 jobs and lived with roommates until they made it. They’re not even in the same class as these people.

KISSmyOS,

True capitalism has never been tried!

Why do people hate on mobile games, call them "not real games" and mock them, when some mobile-exclusive games are the best games I've played?

The Infinity Blade or Minigore series, for example, or anything made by Illusion Labs. These games are genius and most consoles don’t even have a touch screen or utilise it well like some smartphone games do....

KISSmyOS,

Question to you: Why do you care if others mock the games you like to play?
Does it make you feel like less of a “gamer”?

On some level, all games are just pushing buttons (or a screen) to make our brain produce the happy chemicals.

Made the switch to KDE

I’ve been using Fedora for a couple of months now, and have been loving it. Very soon after I jumped into this community (among other Linux communities) and started laughing at all the people saying “KDE rules, GNOME drools,” and “GNOME is better, KDE is for babies.” But then I thought, “Why not give KDE a try? The...

KISSmyOS,

I used Gnome for half an hour when I noticed I can three-finger-swipe left/right to switch workspaces and swipe up/down to open and close the overview. I’ll never use anything else on my laptop!

The Unity Desktop Environment an Underrated Masterpiece (unityd.org)

Why is the unity is underrated when its what i use right now with Ubuntu Unity and its actually really great experience for my 2021 HP Stream 11 Laptop and i hope you all to share your experiences using the unity de in Debain Ubuntu Arch Fedora Gentoo Opensuse Etc thanks for your Amazing community my Wonderful Friends

KISSmyOS,

I always hated how it took away screen real estate from the top and the side for no good reason

KISSmyOS,

My dad had a work colleague from the US who was named “Melitta Filter”.

Why didn't anyone remind me the dual booting exists?

I was talking to my dad yesterday and he talked about how he dual booted windows and Linux in his college days. I immediately left to download Ubuntu, I feel so dumb for forgetting it’s an option. I literally only use windows so I can play Fortnite with friends. PSA: you can have both Linux and Windows, or you can use a vm in...

KISSmyOS, (edited )

Windows doesn’t “snitch” on you. Invasive anti-cheat measures demand to act as a root-kit on your pc that reads out literally everything about your system, including CPU, hardware ID of the mainboard, etc. So of course it will see that it’s installed on a VM and you gave it the right to send that info wherever during installation of the game.
Since the point of this measure is to keep people from evading a ban by reinstalling, it will not like seeing that it’s in a VM.

KISSmyOS,

Damn, the Arch Wiki is even the best documentation for Windows!

KISSmyOS, (edited )

Most people forget you can also run a Linux VM inside Windows if all the other options don’t work for you.
It protects your private data from virusses, doesn’t let Microsoft’s telemetry spy on your usage and browsing, and gives you more control.
Just limit what you do in Windows to what needs it running natively and do everything else inside the VM.

KISSmyOS,

KISSmyOS,

On Debian Unstable and Arch (both with pipewire) it just worked out of the box for me with no issues.

KISSmyOS,

This firefox hasn’t crashed. It behaves as expected on Slackware.

KISSmyOS,

yayponies.no/videos

Nope.

KISSmyOS,

Puppy Linux is mostly focused on tiny install size (<300MB), built from source and hasn’t had a new version in over 3 years.
Alpine is even more minimalist and designed to run on embedded devices or in containers.
Go with a desktop-oriented or general purpose distro instead.

KISSmyOS,

Wayland is just a protocol. The WMs, compositors and applications need to implement the features the X server used to provide.
Those that don’t will become useless when X is gone.

OpenSUSE Leap 15.5 -> Tumbleweed conversion

Thinking of trying to morph my Leap workstation into Tumbleweed (and potentially Slowroll once that project matures enough). I’ve seen that you can do it . I reckon I can rollback relatively easily via the BTRFS snapshots if it goes sideways, but just curious to see what others’ experience with doing so has been.

KISSmyOS,

RTFM. The setup of a user-level flatpak is right there in the Wiki: en.opensuse.org/Flatpak

    KISSmyOS,

    Wait, it’s already Debian December?
    I thought it was still Arch Autumn!
    Oh well, here I go reinstalling again…

    KISSmyOS,

    To be honest, running Linux has gotten a lot more boring over the years. Which is a good thing!

    KISSmyOS,

    You can, but 70% quality has visible jpeg artifacts and any editing makes them worse.
