Nvidia on Wayland moment

Gaming on wayland moment

Battery/Usage on wayland moment

KDE devs making gestures only available on wayland because memes (there is literally a 3rd party github script to achieve the same thing on X11)

X11 being reliable because Xorg devs aren’t stupid

My real issue with Wayland is that it took like 15 years to become acceptably usable. I’ll switch once XFCE moves over in several years, but until then, there is no incentive for worse performance and non exitestent support.

@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

I would unironically buy this if they really just dropped the lines from UK so it just appears on the board as a blank spot lmao

mlg, to linux in What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

Arch: Arch

Ubuntu (and downstreams): Canonical

Enjoying Fedora. Find Debian (and downstreams) pretty solid as well.

mlg, to asklemmy in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?
@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

Pakistani flags everywhere, reskinned character and NPCs, Pakistani songs, story characters replaced by famous IRL people, including some known mafia lol. Some original missions and reduxed interactions and updated story. Also lots of military additions.

Some were also themed after a specific city like Karachi or Lahore.

I’m sure Pakistan wasn’t the only country since I’ve heard there were hilarious and great modded bootlegs in other countries as well.

GTA IV Pakistan edition

Basically, just a GTA4 pirate rip and modded and sold on actual disks.

There are several, and they are hard to find online because any uploads of it probably don’t exist anywhere anymore, and were already rare due to aforementioned disks.

Some of them are so regional and probably made by one person, the only way to find one is to get a computer HDD with it installed.

mlg, to movies in The DCEU ends not with a bang, but a wimper.
@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

Looking back at all this wasted potential, what would you have done differently with the DCEU,

  1. Don’t try to cash money imitate MCU
  2. Don’t try to compete in a saturated market with a similar product
  3. Hire actual screenwriters to plan continuity and style

and what are your hopes for James Gunn’s DC Universe?

Don’t try and just go back to animation since DC still dominates in that format.

Pay morbillions to make Batman Arkham Alsume remastered remastered version

mfw when entire distros are advertising UI features of gnome that came standard on every DE like 15+ years ago, including gnome.

Seriously, Compiz is from 2006.

Use a VM and play with different DEs

Fedora is a good base and comes with most DEs as spins so you don’t have to swap live.

Choose the one you like the most.

Personally, XFCE for all around customization amd performance, KDE for out of box solid functionality (and wayland if you care).

Once you feel comfortable, then go ahead and install or dual boot.

Silverblue is okay but kinda overrated because Flatpaks are not a silver bullet and will break or have basic FS dependency issues. Plus, it’s not a great intro to Linux experience because you can’t shoot yourself in the foot easily most tutorials on Linux will be for a regular system.

As for the distros themselves:

spoilerArch: Bleeding edge and you want to actually suffer every time you boot. Manjaro: Arch but supposed to work out of box. Debian: The King of stability at the cost of slower package updates Fedora: Cutting edge and works out of box unlike Arch Ubuntu: Useless Canonical distro that is heavily dated Pop! OS and ElementaryOS: user friendly downstream of Ubuntu that suffer the same issues as Ubuntu. Linux Mint: Ubuntu if it was actually good except it’s still a downstream so still has aforementioned Ubuntu issues. Gentoo: You want something completely custom Slackware: You want a classic Unix like machine but with Linux RHEL/CentOS/Rocky/Oracle/Etc: Enterprise Linux (server usage and desktop usage) OpenSUSE: The RPM equivalent of Arch & Debian (comes in rolling and stable releases). So you can choose bleeding edge or stability.

Personally, I have stuck with Fedora for a long time. Debian or OpenSUSE would be second choice. Arch only if I’m forced to like the steam deck lol.

Also ArchWiki is your friend. Even if you’re on any other distro, it has a wealth of the latest information and tutorials for whatever you want or need.

also that random github python script you will randomly need lol

mlg, to linuxmemes in It's OK if you cry
@mlg@lemmy.world avatar

akmod and dkms to the rescue so you can watch as your kernel fights with the hardware in real time

mlg, to linuxmemes in the main differences!!

1.8 gb minimum RAM usage on default KDE vs 1.6 GB RAM Usage on Compiz with all the fancy effects enabled like the see through 3D cube.
