I bet the others already gave a lot of good advice, but there is one thing I wand to emphasize. The way in which you install software matters more on Linux than on any other operating system. You are meant to install it through your distros package manager, which you will most likely use through the software management GUI of your distro. Do not download any executables from websites directly, unless you are absolutely sure that:
Sometimes you might need to add additional repositories to your package manager, the same rules apply there. You might also run into things called Flatpaks and Snaps, these are universal package formats and another great option for installing software. Flatpaks work out of the box in a lot of distros. Number one rule there is to stick to things that are marked as verified, unless you have a good reason to trust them. These universal formats might be integrated in the GUI software manager too, this varies across distros.
If you follow those rules and keep your system updated, I don’t expect you will have much trouble with Linux.
I applaud your bravery with Arch. Have some fun with it and don’t worry if you break stuff. Keep your files backed up and you’re golden! Even if you switch to a different distro later on, a lot of what you learn will translate 1:1.
Web 3 games are simply ponzi schemes hidden behind a super grindy game. As far as I know, none of these games actually produce anything of value from the labor put into them, so the payouts must come from new money entering the scheme.
I tries it a couple months ago and it was horrible, didn’t even support flexbox back then and it kept crashing. The latest nightly builds are almost usable for basic web browsing though, it’s amazing how fast servo improves
They introduced layer effects as a surprise to everyone in one of the latest previews. It’s a little janky, but it works
The USB spec requires one master and one slave device, which is usually decided by which type of connector each side has. USB OTG can bypass that restriction, but I’ve only ever seen it done with micro USB or type C.
The new UI and effects look stunning, but I’m concerned about the new corporate direction the project is taking
For Windows and Mac, yes. V1 was very polished when I used it back in the day, I assume V2 is the same. For Linux, fuck no. They don’t care one bit about that OS.
I tried it with bottles. It installed fine after manually installing dotnet 4.8, but I couldn’t get Affinity Photo itself to run, even after extensive tweaks. All I get is an exception without any description in the terminal output.
I gotta give it to the guy, that was the one time he managed to make me laugh
The modern keybinds might make me drop micro for nano again
Linux has huge problems on my laptop, cause HP in their infinite wisdom decided to disable S3 sleep at firmware level. I still find myself dreading the thought of reinstalling windows though. I’d rather manually shut off my laptop every time I stop using it than go back to that awful proprietary OS.
I tried Silverblue a year ago on my laptop and it was quite nice. Back then I had no idehow to properly use toolbox or rpm-ostree though, so it felt quite limiting. I had to go back to Windows on my laptop because of college, but I’ll try setting up a dual boot with Silverblue once the new Fedora beta drops. If that goes well, I might even switch to atomic on my main PC.
I spent hours the other day uninstalling adware from my laptop after reinstalling windows on it. It’s ridiculous.
I love documentation like this. No need to be formal when a simple analogy works too
TIL Pulsar exists
Okay that is the first argument for it I’ve read that actually makes sense
If we need warning lights for self driving cars, the technology is not ready.
Linux all the way, for loads of practical and ethical reasons
