Nothing really major. Mostly curiosity and some times I’d run into a game that I like, but it doesn’t run on Linux. Eventually, I’d either figure out how to make it work, or just say fuck it and let it go.
I actually do have a laptop that runs windows. It has that shit hybrid Intel/Nvidia graphics that never worked out on linux so I had to put windows back on it. But I don’t/can’t play games on the laptop, it’s very weak and nothing works on it. My PC is pretty decent and I was thinking I can get a separate drive for windows in case I needed it for a game or something. I don’t know. It’s just an idea for now, nothing really major. I hate changing set ups/distro-hopping. Been working on this same endeavour OS install for over a year and it fits my needs perfectly except for the occasional games that just don’t run on Linux. Or a program like yesterday when I bought a new mechanical keyboard (red dragon) and there is no software for it on Linux. It didn’t even work through wine and other means. Ya know, shit like that.
Thank you. It’s going to be a process. I want to dual but I want Windows to be on its own drive so it doesn’t touch anything else. I honestly don’t even want it near grub. I’m ok with going to it from the boot menu every time, instead of using OS prober and grub. I’ve heard some horror stories of windows just nuking grub and that would hurt badly.
Nowadays I find a lot of games feel like too much work and/or anxiety when I just want to relax for like, 30 minutes to an hour after a long day. On the other hand, the games specifically designed to help you unwind just feel boring imo....
Man, those “into the frey” fights where you have 45 seconds to defeat 69474783748 creatures are so stressful. Also, those big ass monsters are very hard to beat. That’s stressful. That’s why I just go around the wild to collect foods and stuff. Lol
Genshin impact on PC is a masterpiece. The colors on my 4k monitor are just out of this world. I don’t even do hard missions, I just go around the wild collect foods and stuff. So relaxing.
It technically still does if you use their theming app “Gradience”. I use it currently on my laptop. Pretty nifty little app. It still doesn’t theme the shell (the panel, the password box… etc), but it does theme even flatpaks most of the time
Fair enough. As long as the app goes with the dark/light theme and doesn’t look super tiny on hidpi screens, I personally wouldn’t really lose sleep over it. Will there be an HIG specific to cosmic for devs who want to make apps for it?
So that means themes will cover everything and things will be unified, unlike how the shell is always dark on gnome? (I know they’re working on a light mode).
I have that question, in the image, why does the dock size scrolling bar have a vertical line in the “48” size?? Does that mean it’s the default size? Because when I change the size to 48 the dock icons get very big! Thank you c:
the heroic launcher was recently updated to support gamescope (installed it through flatpak by installing org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.gamescope 23.08 through the terminal using >flatpak install)....
I was forced to use heroic launcher because I couldn’t get genshin impact to run on steam from my games drive. It kept pushing it to my home drive and I didn’t want that. I’m now in love with heroic launcher(this is my first time ever using it). So beautiful and very practical. I also use it to install regular .exe files. Very solid. I’m going to donate to the project, that’s how much I actually like it 😄
Was looking at how to set up snapper on Fedora 39 and came across the ever knowledgable Stephens tech talks video. It does balance, setting up snapper, sub-volume management in a really cool GUI tool....
I never had to set it up. I use endeavour OS and all I did was choose “btrfs” in the installer. That’s it. I just installed timeshift after that and ran it like normal. No issues. Installed auto snap and grub-btrfs and I’m in the races.
A symptom of linux past traumas
So, I had to reinstall windows as a dualboot, because I need some CAD tools for work. It was painful but it’s not thebaubject...
