Extremely based

Core 2 Duo is also a terrible name from Intel in the first place. I did place my repebble order, hopefully it will serve me well.

they could have just called gims or gim

naming stuff is important

also capitalists calling for fucking RTO again, fuck

and then absolutely everyone I talk to will do usual ‘oh it’s not that bad , you’re over reacting’ with the additional “I don’t use it but I still have it installed”

because explicitly declaring types can be redundant, if the compiler knows a lot of the times you should also know

also because some types are extremely cursed: see std views/ranges

I specifically said this advice because dual booting windows with Linux is a terrible idea.

Although you are right, if you USB read/write is slow it will be a sluggish experience.

You should just test run it from a bootable usb.

Install steam. Mount your NTFS drive which contains your windows games. If you have sims on steam use steam. If not take a look at lutris before doing any of the above.

Your experiment ends when you’ve tested all games you want to play.

Now: You cannot use NTFS (windows) drive for games, although you did it in the experiment long extended usage is discouraged.

So you will need to find a way to transfer your games to a different formatted drive. (ext4, btrfs for example)

If you don’t need that advice you will eventually run into frustrating issues.

they don’t care at all. MAGA are just shit disturbers.

The whole arch advantage (imo) is that you have a full understanding of what’s in your machine and how it works.

As a beginner you won’t understand and that’s okay, but you should try different things (or don’t and just focus on what works for you) as long as the end result is you doing: pacman -Qe and going “hmm that makes sense”, and imo the undesired result is going “hmm what do these all do, why do I have 2000+ packages”

the fucking hat lmao

isn’t there a mint version with plasma?

my unsolicited 2c is to checkout mint

only the woke lib left believe that money was pocketed! fake news !

I cannot believe we live in a world where this might need it but: /s

le false equivalence totally validates my endorsement for the worst president elected in US history

If I was old I’d simply say: Old age begone!

forgot call of duty

I can tell you how I learned linux. be prepared to cringe.

1. I installed Linux before going to school, I figured that if I used Linux as my main OS I would be less tempted to dick around and play games

2. I eventually found a coop part time job as a dev. I used my own Linux machine, and being the star eyed young person I was I used arch.

this is the cringe part:

3. I did dev work on arch Linux without fully understanding how it works and ran into multiple issues (none of which was because of arch). for instance my USB wifi driver was the dogshit broadcom ones so the “drivers” for it were kind of messed and I had to hack several things into get it to work.

I learned systemd, Linux kernel modules, dkpg, obviously more familiarity with bash and shell stuff

4. I ran into issues with grub because FUCK grub. so I had to learn about boot loaders, fixing your install with chroot on a live usb, I also wrote step by step guides to untuck my particular problem just in case I run into it again

so moral of the story is… dive in?

Amazon Canada is just a bunch of no name brand Chinese shit.

the hilarious part is that there is genuinely good Chinese products in 2024 but it’s almost like Amazon wants to flood their store with over priced junk instead

there’s nothing about Linux itself that makes the steam game not work. it’s up to he developer to release a binary that supports Linux, most devs who are using tools like unity or unreal probably have the highest realistic chance of making a clean Linux executable

but the way proton works is to use the compiled binary for windows in a way to make it compatible for Linux
