warmaster,

Get a Thumbdrive and flash it with Ventoy, load it up with every ISOs you want to try and vive each one a go, the one that works nest for you, is the one you keep.

Ways to pirate music as convenient as Spotify?

The reason I gave up on MP3’s and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I’ve been listening “Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds” song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I’m trying to find “Stremio” of the music world. Can someone assist?...

warmaster,

There’s a bunch of apps on Flathub for that, but if you’re looking for a Windows app, then iidk.

warmaster,

Crap, I was hoping to try it. I wonder if AMD will announce something in their FOSS / AI event.

warmaster,

Gamepass Cloud works. What won’t work is Gamepass PC, because Microsoft doesn’t care, and wraps it up in an unmodifiable container.

warmaster,

One step closer for the FOSS drivers to be a real alternative.

warmaster,

If you care about VRR or HDR, you need a distro with KDE Plasma and use a Wayland session. Plus, you’ll need the latest drivers, so… a rolling release.

Arch based like Manjaro, or OpenSUSE.

If you don’t like that, or you have an NVIDIA GPU then I suggest you try Nobara, made by Glorious Eggroll, big contributor to Proton (Valve’s fork of Wine, what makes Windows games run on Linux).

warmaster,

I’m running Calibre on the web using hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/calibre

warmaster,

StirlingPDF is freaking awesome, although I don’t know how it relates to the post.

Get Office 365 subscriptions to use MS Office via web browser.

End of story regarding office apps.

Regarding the rest of the OS, get Ventoy and load it with a bunch of distros and test drive them to see which one you like the most.

Some suggestions to start with:

  • Fedora
  • Ubuntu
  • OpenSUSE

All these have their enterprise variants which could come in handy in the event you need official support when your company takes off.

I personally use Arch on my desktop PCs, but if I couldn’t… I would use Fedora or a Fedora based distro.

I use Fedora Server on my homelab.

I chose these because I want the latest drivers for my GPUs, gaming peripherals, and display related improvements (Wayland, Mesa, etc.).

Install & setup Jellyfin Install Qbittorrent

Download movies and series, put them in the folders that Jellyfin is monitoring.

Install Jellyfin on your phone and your TV or Streaming device.

Play.

After that, if you want more automation, do what others said: Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, Bazarr

warmaster,

I have a friend with a 1650 that got his issues fixed out of the box, when he switched to Nobara. Not Optimus, so YMMV.

warmaster,

Well, that settles it then. Did you have to do anything after installing ?

warmaster,

My friend told me today that he is seeing a second display in settings, however he only has one monitor. Any ideas on how to get rid of it? Did you have to do something to get DRM modest 1 on boot ?

warmaster,

I’m a selfhoster, I setup a home assistant VM and Cosmos Cloud running a bunch of Docker containers, all setup using Cockpit.

Easier, and better looking UI than Proxmox. Also this setup enabled me to use Docker instead of LXD and save on one virtualization layer, which as a beginner every layer adds complexity.

It has been rock solid, it has better hardware support than Debian due to the faster release cycle, only drawback is the lack of documentation or tutorials in comparison to Debian which has a colossal community.

warmaster,

I’m sure they have thought of this, I wonder if they plan to use web apps, or Waydroid, or something else.

Also, there’s a chance mobile Linux could benefit from sponsorships, contributions, etc

warmaster,

Example:

Nvidia GSP in Nouveau:

Any video related improvement is a must-have for gamers. This release will improve Nvidia support in the open source driver.

warmaster,

While not the same, Krita, Inkscape and Kdenlive are so far ahead in terms of UX/UI that at this point I won’t ever see a redesign of GIMP.

It’s a shame since it is really powerful, but the UX/UI is holding it back so much.

warmaster,

If I use GNOME I get the most beautiful desktop UI, if I use Plasma I get a better gaming experience. I wish I could have both.

warmaster, (edited )

I wonder if any of this will improve Wayland/mutter, I love GNOME’s UI… but I had to move to KDE for a better gaming experience.
