Thank you all who have supported my channel so far. I finally got 360 subscribers. Which to many is not a big feat. Considering all I’ve been through I’m lucky to be around to make videos at all. I got my first affiliate offer in my email today.
I’m sure thousands of these are sent out every day but this put a big smile on my face. I’m not going to accept their offer but I’m happy to have even been considered as all.
Come check me out if you haven’t already. I do mostly Linux, gaming and open source application show cases!
Why is it that on #Linux OSes, even #Fedora with its early OOM and no swap file / no swap partition (because I have 24 GB of RAM, yo), a runaway memory leak will trash the hard drive with IO for 30 minutes before finally doing what the OOM killer was supposed to do (or until the user power cycles the computer in exasperation)?
Why the heck does this touch storage drives, when there is no swap file/partition?
Guys I truly don’t mean to spam the community but these are legit questions. Yesterday I posted about linux compatibility and computers and every single person gave me knowledge to use and you’re all awesome....
Ubuntu 23.10 & Fedora 39, both running Gnome of all things (eye roll) run just fine on my late 2009 iMac (iMac 10,1)
nb : Fedora 39 has an installation bug. Installing Fedora 38 minimal then upgrading to 39 is the simplest solution. Kudos as usual to Canonical for shipping a trouble free install on Mac.
OpenTTD is one of my favorite Linux Mint applications. Not only is it absolutely free to play but it’s pretty straightforward to get into. Let’s take a look together if you haven’t checked it out before!
I'd really like the perspective from someone who is new to using Linux. What kind of "how too" videos would really help you out in a pinch? Don't worry if it's mundane, I'm open to any suggestions.
I’m not quite where my footing is as far as my content is concerned but I’m passionate about Linux. This gives me an excuse to showcase some of my favorite software.
Auch deswegen nutze ich YouTube nicht direkt, sondern Links über @invidious* oder nutze es mobil via @newpipe*, um Videos zu sehen und so weit frei vom Tracking zu sein. Leider sind noch nicht sehr viele anregende Videoproduktionen im Fediverse zB auf @peertube vertreten.
@mausmalone My kids grew up with Linux -- they struggled to learn Windows and MacOS later on when they had to use them for school or work.
None of the 3 major desktop OS's is inherently more difficult than the others; it's just a matter of which you become familiar with first (though I find Linux a little easier to set up than Windows or MacOS because I don't have to search all over the web for peripheral drivers).
GIMP 3.0 finally has a release schedule (librearts.org)
Any experience with teaching kids Linux?
Any one here has any experience with teaching 8 to 12 years old kids Linux?
Is there a FOSS app like Printer2Go, PrintHand, PrintShare and Nokoprint? (Large printer support and printing over USB)
These apps have support for huge amount of printers and allow printing over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and most importantly, USB....
Are older, but Linux compatible computers capable of running the newest kernel/version of various distros?
