AlijahTheMediocre,

Only problem with Tiling WM’s is the learning curved. Looking forward to Gnomes Mosaic TWM to bridge the gap between floating and tiling

AlijahTheMediocre,

Hoping to see Gnome make some progress on Mosaic Tiling. Also wish they’d bite the bullet already and implement a SSD fallback and go along with Hex color values and just choose named colors from there.

Its Winter right now, stuff came to a crawl last year too

Switching to Debian on my gaming pc

Hello everyone - I have been wanting to ditch windows on my gaming pc for a while now, and since I have recently finished a large project, I now have the free time to switch. I am relatively comfortable with Debian having used it for a while on my web server as well as school laptop, but I am concerned about using it on my...

AlijahTheMediocre,

Fedora Silverblue and Linux Mint Debian Edition are my goto distros atm. Have not had issues with either, they’ve been great out of the box. Fedora Silverblue requires relearning a few things however, being very container oriented.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Its just Debian with a face lift, also because part of me fears that Ubuntu could pull off the same stunt Redhat did and that’ll cause issues for Linux Mint main.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Opensource has a forking problem. So much time spent maintaing projects with only a few tweaks differentiating them.

Mint at least improves upon Ubuntu significantly and undoes a lot of their unpopular corporatey decisions. Zorin is literally just Ubuntu with a different face.

How far back will the NVK driver support?

AlijahTheMediocre,

This comment section went from zero to one hundred real quick

AlijahTheMediocre,

Who says clowns don’t use Linux and aren’t using Arch?

Has Windows startup repair or a troubleshooter ever fixed your issue even once?

Yeah, basically that. I’m back at work in Windows land on a Monday morning, and pondering what sadist at Microsoft included these features. It’s not hyperbole to say that the startup repair, and the troubleshooters in settings, have never fixed an issue I’ve encountered with Windows. Not even once. Is this typical?...

AlijahTheMediocre,

Windows’s ability to troubleshoot itself or at least point you in the direction of a solution is non-existent. One reason I switch to Linux fully.

AlijahTheMediocre,

No, just spent the better part of half a day helping a friend troubleshoot his PC because it kept crashing when trying to game.

BSOD was useless, dug in logs to find the errorcode. Error code was some generic Nvidia driver had an oopsie daisy, all it confirmed was that it was a software issue. Spent next 3 hours finding and reinstalling drivers until finally reinstalling the chipset drivers seems to have resolved it.

AlijahTheMediocre,

As mentioned in another comment, event viewer didn’t get me much more than “Nvidia Driver crapped out”, searching the bugcheck code lead to “heres several things that might fix it”. In no way did it suggest that reinstalling the chipset drivers would resolve the issue.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Hop anyways, the need for greater satisfaction demands it

Linux on a 2in1 for Uni (lemmy.world)

Hello linix@lemmy, I got fixed on the idea of replacing my iPad with a 2in1 like the thibkpad X13 for uni since I use the keyboard with my iPad a lot. The only time I need to take handwritten notes is in chemistry, mathematics and to annotate PDFs. Does anyone here have experience with convertibles running Linux? What would be...

AlijahTheMediocre,

I have a 2-in-1 Lenovo Yoga 6 13" that I’ve installed Linux on. I’ve given up on the fingerprint reader working. The part manufacturer doesnt make drivers for Linux nor do they provide the necessary information for someone to make one themselves.

AlijahTheMediocre,

I want to know how three stars can form as a system at very different times. Shouldn’t they have similar ages?

AlijahTheMediocre,

The Windows style systray is redundant, I dont understand how you guys think you need it. Android style systray (system notifications) would be far better.

AlijahTheMediocre,

I’ve always found that the right click menu is the same for taskbar, systray, and app drawer. Main reason I say its redundant, at least with an Android like system the apps can display information and options in the notifications.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Now KDE needs to implement a consistent design language for its apps, clean up its settings, and have better defaults. Not asking KDE to copy Gnome, just that it needs a lot more work to be palletable to someone using it for the first time.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Oh no, apps directly from the developers, the horrors

AlijahTheMediocre,

Flatpak with OSTree or ABroot, the future is now. Although it would be nice if Silverblue would automatically create a container and install non-flatpak apps into it, then add desktop.ini files automatically:

AlijahTheMediocre,

Once Wine gets proper Wayland support instead of running through Xwayland the fps situation will change.

And for Slack/Discord they’d have Wayland support if they didnt use ancient Electron versions.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Firefox is faster at loading webpages and content than Chrome, and thats without adblockers. The only thing Chrome is good at is being a webapp and spyware platform.

AlijahTheMediocre,

Nothing started easy, someone has to figure out the hard part for everyone else to benefit.
