Sometimes…
GPU passthrough has always been one of those exciting ideas I’d love to dive into one day. My current GPU being a little older, has only 4GB of RAM. Oh the joy’s of being a budget PC user. Thankfully it’s more of a “would be nice rather” than an “actually need”…
While I appreciate the utility of snaps and flatpaks for providing sandboxed, cross-platform apps, I’ve often found them slower than traditional packages. Their tendency to take up more disk space also feels inefficient, especially when system resources are sometimes precious. For these reasons, I generally prefer using apps installed directly through the system’s default package manager, which tend to offer better performance and use space more efficiently…
I really want to love Elementary OS, however, its foundation on Ubuntu has me hesitating, as I’m not the biggest fan of Ubuntu lately. If it were built on something like Debian or Fedora, I’d definitely be more inclined to give it a serious try…
Aha yea it could very well be that guy…
While I’d personally never install or use this, it good to know its there for the extremely small percentage of people who’ll want or need it…
I never said anything about “tiptoeing around”, but what you said here is correct…
Any distro will “just work” if used correctly…
OpenSUSE was actually released long before Arch even existed. I’m an Arch user, btw, but I consider both operating systems to be excellent choices. Everyone has their own preferences. Let people enjoy what they like and embrace their individuality. We don’t all have to be alike…
In the past, some people have expressed dissatisfaction when I’ve sent them files in .odt format. However, it’s the superior format in terms of support and functionality, so I always make them aware of that and of the fact that I will never use some shitty ms product…
This was a cool read. Thanks for sharing :) I’ve been an XFCE user since 2002 & can confirm that as a longtime user I’ve never really encountered anything other than a few small problems…
All Linux distros are kinda the same really.
This is how not to use Arch… Update at least once a month, or if not maybe at least twice a month. If you can’t handle the updates on Arch then consider switching to something like Debian…
I’ve actually been meaning to give systemd boot a try. Been using grub just fine though & I’ve never actually had any problems with it…
I installed Arch once & it took less than 30mins to complete. Still using the same install, as it has literally never broken. This comic literally applies to those people who use Arch incorrectly…
I can see how that would be problematic. Hopefully that’ll never happen to me…
My motherboard is a stock dell from around 2012 so I doubt performance would be at all good. Thats even if it worked in the first place…
