linux can have some pretty weird quirks though. (don't get me wrong I've been dailydriving linux for several years and I'm not going to use windows unless I'm forced)

one time I was about to do presentation, I has multiple files and windows in order to present the whole program we had developed, some powerpoint, demo, and the source code.

then came my time to do the presentation and I plugged in the hdmi cable and my fucking account just logged out. dunno if the session crashed or something, but I had to quickly scramble everything back since all my apps were closed lol.

I do have older quadro nvidia though

olutukko ,

nah propiertary, sometimes happens randomly and gnome

olutukko ,

I mean it's pretty easy to tell that it's just gnome with different icons if you're ever used linux. doesn't even look that much like mac

oh god maybe I'm a nerd too

olutukko ,

so he fucked up the whole platform so he has to raise money with porn? not suprised to be honest

olutukko ,

I mean they did have religions in greece and rome, yet it's full of nude art

olutukko ,

this is just stupid. like oh my god how dare they to use name thst is also tied to bdsm. it might just be me but I have never thought about the wrong gimp then talking about gnu image manipulation program. also it's an acronym that works

olutukko ,

every year is the year of linux for linux users. not so much for other people

olutukko ,

you literally have to run installation script or follow instructions from arch wiki. slap some de to it and you're good. doesn't take a smart person to do.

to properly maintain it for longer periods forever though, takes some more skill.

olutukko ,

or musX

olutukko ,

I don't know, I think it was pretty fun trolling after someone coming to say something as dull as "you want a medal or something"

olutukko ,

this. it's kinda shitty considering how much people spend on games they "own" but don't actually have any privileges they had with physical copies, but this is nowhere suprising

olutukko ,

this shit would br illegal in my country. I hope this ain't true

olutukko ,

windows has normalized all that shit so well that this image is genuinely disturbing compared to the win 11 start menu. I am glad my windows days ended years ago

olutukko ,

I mean it's currently kinda ridiculously bad sometimes but you gotta remember this this level AI has been around for like less than 2 years, it's going to be a lot better in few years. chatgpt got launched in november 2022 and look at the leaps it has made in that time

but why the fuck did they put it anywhere at that state? unless it's their strategy to get data to improve the ai, would make sense. kinda shitty move though, classic microsoft

olutukko ,

I think it really tells something about the tourists behaviour in sex clubs

olutukko ,

no I'm talking about rich white european and american sex tourists that are a big problem in some countries because they behave like shit

olutukko ,

I really don't but I do know the reason for their policies

olutukko ,

what kind?

olutukko ,

no one is seriously going to install gentoo on an old laptopt just to get it slightly faster. Gentoo is for hobbyists

olutukko ,

not in finland at least. never heard of that stuff

olutukko ,

my girlfriends like fedora gnome too. I do all the technical stuff anyway so she really doesn't have know to know that much about the os she uses

olutukko ,

fuck that I always wanted the biggest cones as a kid and I regret nothing

olutukko ,

just use it as intended instead of trying to rip it off

olutukko ,

I mean she does have a t-shirt that says "white american privilege"

hope that answers to your question

olutukko ,

I take it as patriotic america first -slogan. the woman is some patriotic nutjob who has her podcast called truth uncensored of something like that so it's pretty safe to assume she is one of those christian maga idiots who would definetly lose their shit for seeing "sacrifise child" in their tv

olutukko ,

it's not like there were awesome game series which came to exist as a passion projects that are being discontinued because people don't like the latest titles because they were lazy cash crabs...

olutukko ,

apparently wsl 2 enabled option to run gui apps too so I would imagine desktop or wm would work too, but I don't think it would be possible to enable super key for those without windows registering it too. this is just my speculation though. but traditionally people use it to run linux cli applications etc.

at least my classmates have been using it for classes that require usage of linux. I have never touched it myself since I converted to the church of linux before wsl was a thing

olutukko ,

the neat part is they don't. unless you tell them about the trip. I too only take pictures of my surroundings, with my camera app, for myself, without the intend of sharing more than maybe one of them. unless I happend to put something on a family group chat or something

olutukko ,

I knew a lot of people with xbox one. but around that time I also knew a lot of people who started converting to playstation or pc. I don't recall seeing X/S in the wild ever

olutukko ,

est industry literally does. they lobby that shit like crazy

edit: not with those words though

Elon Musk says it's his turn to have the remote (www.engadget.com)

[Xitter] just announced a smart TV app for streaming video. Or, more accurately, that it claims it's building one, with absolutely no launch date mentioned. The appropriately-named [Xitter] TV wants to be “your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen.”

olutukko ,

I'm going to call it "coughshitter" because that's what it sounds like

olutukko ,

I thoughy I was at linuxmemes first. not that kind of system I see

olutukko ,

just addressing your "paim in the ass" statement. it is true what you're saying about propiertary software that is not available to linux but there are linux alternatives. which like I said, is the matter of a new workflow. work enviroment is a different though if they require certain software to be used. what comes to gaming, huge steps are made towards gaming on linux and most games work just fine with proton. games with heavy kernel level anticheats are a different thing though.

edit: and everything except browsing internet and office work is a big fucking strech

olutukko ,

literally my whole steam library with 80 something games works with linux. just saying. and they are not some linux specific games either. fallout 4, mafias, baldurs gate 3, the forest, rdr 2, gta v etc.

your opinion is from 5 years ago. when have you last even tried to game on linux? and what are you even doing in linuxmemes with these comments? :D kernel level anti cheat is a different thing though

just go check protondb if you need some proof it has all the games on steam listed with info how well they work

olutukko ,

did you forget programming? its a breeze with linux

olutukko ,

I would like to know what software are you using that don't have linux alternatives.

and you're still downplaying linux a lot. programmin is huge thing on linux and propably most people use it for that. there are a lot of digital art software which is made for linux. you can do cad work with freecad, altough it has quite different workflow than a lot of other cad software

olutukko , (edited )

lmao. the fact that kernel-level anti cheat multiplayers don't work don't work on linux don't mean you can't game on linux or that it is bad experience. a lot of people don't play those and they are mostly put on competitive game. steam has literslly brought thousands of games to linux in just a few years

out of 1000 top games on steam 77% has either platinum or gold rating in terms of woking. I'm sorry linux isn't viable for gaming?

and we literally have linux gaming handheld, steam deck. which has over 4000 games with steam verified status and something like 14000 gold or platinum status games

edit: sorry didn't notice the "at least for me" part which makes your comment valid if you happen to play those kernel anticheat games

olutukko , (edited )

in my experience gold games work almost alwaus just fine. I don't expect platinum rating on a lot of games since a lot of modern games are just as unstable on windows as they are on linux. In my opinion the meaning of gold rating has changed a lot. 2010s with wine gold used to have quite a lot of tinkering but with proton nowadays it's usually either just fine or solved with 1 or 2 launch commands copy pasted from protondb. some games have even slightly better performance on linux with the right hardware.

sorry for starting the whole argument but I also don't know what kind of answers you expected when you came to linux community trash talking linux with things that a lot of linux users don't agree with. your use cases happens to be one of the worst though on linux.

but the fact that you cant use professional cad software and play games that are specifically made impossible to play on linux don't mean that you can't do anything but use office and browser and I still do think that statement is stupid as hell.

but sorry again for getting so heated, I'm going to stop arguing now since neither of us are going to change their minds and this contributes absolutely nothing

olutukko ,

nah it's still good. I do prefer fedora myself though, but that's just a preference

olutukko ,

my point was still originally that in most cases it's just change of a workflow. even if something needs a tinkering at first time after thst you know how to do it and it's not a chore anymore. I would definetly feel thst even if in windows thinf just work it would be pain in the ass for me to do the stuff in windows way because I'm used to linux way.

but also I have very different use cases than you, since I'm a programmer that does 3D modeling as a hobby on blender, and I don't play competitive games. so for me the linux is "everything just works" os, since if I had any problems at start when I didn't known how to do something, that's not most certainly the case anymore

olutukko ,

yeah I definetly know what you mean. with wine it definetly was pain in the ass to make the configuration by yourself to every game. luckily we now have proton doing excellent work for that. and if it's not a steam game we have lutris doing excellent work for that with their install scripts.

we even have glorius eggroll releasing wine-ge and proton-ge where they apply plenty of game specific patches

in steam I feel like maybe 2 out of 10 gold rated games have some little issues, and even then I just have to copy paste launch comand from proton db, no need to fiddle around too much

olutukko ,

I think you answered to the wrong comment

olutukko ,

I mean by buying every ingredient yeah, but if you consider the amount of sugar, salt and baking powder you need which most peoplenown and use anyway it's soo much cheaper to just flour and mix that stuff in it. here cheapest flours are 0,90€ while pancake mix is over 3€. the rest of the stuff you add there costs almsot nothing if you consider how little you need them. like maybe 1€ total

if you however have to buy every ingredient for the mix it costs like 4€ here.
