Hours later she was still at it, hairs scattered, baffled looking… saying how could someone live with so many choices lol.
Oh man I relate to this so hard hahaha…
Do everything you can to try to preserve those settings, because you will need to do a clean install at some point (well maybe not, I’m sure it depends on your distro), and you’re gonna lose all of it.
You could just send it to me instead of letting it fall… Just a thought.
It’s almost as if they’re two completely different markets
Yup. As someone who hasn’t had a dedicated gaming PC in about a decade, I’ve been really happy with the PS5 + Steam Deck combo (well, plus Switch, but that thing collects dust until Nintendo releases a Mario platformer).
I recently got a laptop that’s not made for gaming specifically, but can handle them pretty well (with Proton), and that has scratched any itch I’ve had for PC games that don’t lend themselves to Deck or console (your RTS games and such).
At risk of giving away the game… I think people would be very surprised to see how cheap physical copies of PS4 and PS5 games go for when you catch them on sale.
Took me weeks to figure out a way to run a script at startup in a konsole window that gets hidden but continues running in the background. Tmux could do it but I found it cumbersome.
screen did the trick with a single command.
Ok. I guess I just didn’t automatically understand what “the shortcut” meant.
Hamburger? Who eats a burger without cheese? In this political climate?
EndeavourOS is the first Linux distro I tried a little over a year ago.
I have never felt the need to even try anything else. If it ain’t broke…
Baloo only takes up a lot of CPU if you have it set to index file contents and hidden files. Shut those off, let it index completely, and it won’t happen ever again.
You might be able to keep “hidden files” on, but indexing file contents always bogged my laptop down.
I’m not sure I even understand what you’re talking about and how it relates to my comment . What shortcut? Nothing to do with what I was talking about.
In KDE you can literally just start typing anywhere on the desktop (or set it up to activate with a hotkey), and it’ll use krunner to search your PC, and do a bunch of other shit if you want. Never had anything about task bars interfere with it whatsoever.
In fact, it has saved my ass a few times when plasma shell would crash and I couldn’t access a terminal for whatever reason, I was able to use krunner to restart plasma shell. Very useful.
What they said, but yes also the wriggling. It’s probably fine for now, but I have had devices where the port did get worn out that way after years of use and just incidental wiggling and that was enough to make the port extremely loose and jiggly.
Yeah, but they’ll be lacking the very important skill of “googling the error message”. You will become their de facto IT person.
Yes, which is why I said that was the only part that I could think of that was wrong with it. If you removed “AUR” from the comment, it would be completely fine and nobody would be bricking anything.
Generally, I don’t get too much from the AUR, and when I do, I make sure it’s got a whole lot of '+'s so it’s usually well maintained.
One difference is that retail outlets can profit from Apple products. Linux isn’t a company that makes hardware.
Use EndeavourOS
Pardon?
Been on endeavourOS for a little over a year now, and consider myself a quick study… But how would this brick your system?
I’m guessing the issue would come from getting a random custom kernel off AUR?
Because the rest of it seems fine to me, no? Is there an issue with getting the “-git” version of a program from yay/pacman over the regular or “-bin” versions? I usually tend to go for the bin when it’s there, but I don’t think the git versions have ever caused me trouble.
I usually just use “yay” to update my system, but I have done “pacman -Syyu” (or -Syu) and it seemed to work just fine.
What is there to hate? I don’t really understand. It does what it says on the package, and seems to do it pretty well. At least with respect to making small and quick edits to config files in the command line.
Did I do this?
