  • Linux is awesome at home, but aren't y'all forced to use Windows at work?

  • Keep your eye open for opportunities to advocate for Linux in the workplace, change will come.

  • Windows said they were going to force AI into the OS, so I left.

    I installed Bazzite, it was easy and just worked, but I decided I didn't like immutability. So I installed Garuda, and it was also easy and just worked, even with an Nvidia card.

    So now I'm on Linux and run a bunch of windows games with proton and they also work.

  • Does everyone have an opposite gender name they would use?

    Jump

  • I'd have no idea. Yeah, there's a feminine name I could extract from my current name, but my first impression is that I wouldn't want that. I have no idea.

    Good luck with your journey!

  • I bought an electric kettle

    Jump

  • I just purchased the same one.

  • [Solved] How to set up Linux for gaming on GIGABYTE G5 MF?

    Jump

  • After I left Bazzite i switched to Garuda, which is also gaming and performance focused. I also chose the xfce option, which has been great.

    If your are considering switching, give Garuda a look. I'm also on a gigabyte board with an Nvidia card.

  • I am lost, I need advice (TW: death, illness)

  • Honestly, just sit and hold his hand. You don't need to say anything.

  • My family has been through two "don't get married" interventions. Neither worked, both ended in divorce.

    Do you think 20 is too young for a guy to get married?

    Jump

  • Neither of you have ever even had to live on your own yet. You haven't even started learning who you are as adults.

    If this does work out in the long run, it will be dumb luck. You have the same chance with any random stranger.

    And since no one else has said it, I will. You were 16 dating a 14 year old, that's not ok. At that age all she can do is cosplay a relationship, that's a child.

    One day she is going to wake up and realize she got into all this before she even understood what it was, god help you both when that happens.

  • Is there a Montessori school nearby? They do a great job with kids that don't quite fit the normal school assembly line.

  • RIP Windows: Linux GPU Gaming Benchmarks on Bazzite (GamersNexus new Linux Benchmarking is here!)

    Jump

  • Garuda is Arch. You just need to get the right download for your graphics card and choose your desktop environment. It's basically painless at this point.

    It already includes all the gamer stuff and comes preconfigured for performance.

  • In wake of Windows 10 retirement, over 780,000 Windows users skip Win 11 for Linux, says Zorin OS developers — distro hits unprecedented 1 million downloads in five weeks

    Jump

  • Garuda is Arch, and is also focused on being super easy, gaming focused, and performance tuned. It's not immutable though.

  • VTT (Virtual Tabletop)?

    Jump

  • Foundry has so many game systems, even systems like custom system builder, which let you make your own.

    If all you want is spreadsheets, why not use shared Google docs or something?

  • What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?

    Jump

  • Garuda is an Arch distro and has a simple GUI installer.

    Yeah, you can still raw dog Arch, but you don't have to.

  • What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux?

    Jump

  • I use Arch. I'm a beginner. It has been super easy.

    You just need the right distro. Arch can be easy too.

  • Screw it, I’m installing Linux

    Jump

  • After breaking my hard drive with Bazzite not understanding immutability and trying to bypass it with permissions changes,I switched to Garuda as a beginner. It's Arch based.

    It has been easy, gaming just works, updates just work, it came with the drivers I need.

    All this Arch hate needs to go away. It's not what it was. I haven't had to learn anything more complicated than Windows was.

  • Looking to Switch // Which Distro?

    Jump

  • As you are researching, take a look at Garuda. It is beginner friendly, gaming and performance focused, has good helper apps, and is Arch based so it is getting frequent updates.

    I've been using it as a beginner for over a year and it has been capable, stable, and easy.

  • Returning to 4th Edition D&D

    Jump

  • I've been playing DND since first edition. When my group got to 4e we jumped on eagerly, then dropped it like a hot potato.

    Why?

    It wasn't a bad system, but up till then DND felt like an evolution and 4e felt.. different. There were a bunch of undocumented patterns that had been in the rule set for a very long time, strategies, concepts, that just.. broke under the new ruleset.

    It felt alien. If we had wanted a different system we would have gone looking and found one already. It's like ordering chocolate ice cream and being given lemon all the while insisting it is still chocolate.

    So we jumped to Pathfinder, played around with 5e (which reclaimed a lot of that lineage), and finally really got into Pathfinder 2, which had largely felt true to that lineage all along.

    I'd love to say 4e could have flourished if they had billed it as a sister system instead of a replacement, but in all honesty it probably would have had a lot slower growth than hasbro wanted. There were already other competitors and what hasbro really wanted was to refresh the market with the need to replace your set to have (buy) the current version.

  • Judge Rules Flock Surveillance Images Are Public Records That Can Be Requested By Anyone

    Jump

  • That may be true, but Washington has the Public Records Act which says they have to respond in 5 days and can't take longer than a year to provide the documents, and have fines large enough for some people to make a living setting people up for public records lawsuits.

    So in Washington, at least, there actually is some accountability.

  • Please help me under stand my spouse's gift and their hurt

    Jump

  • Some families teach their kids that your ability to pick a gift directly equates to your value as a person.

    Clearly her failure in this instance is more important to her than to you.

    Whatever you do, try to help her feel valued.
