I don’t really think that’s fair. I agree with your suggestion that it should be a multiplatform DE rather than just its own distro but I think having polished and design opinionated distros is important. I know a few Mac guys who have become interested in Linux when they heard about ElementaryOS.

I get that a lot of people hate on GNOME too for being annoying to customise and being highly opinionated but I think that’s the key to getting the average person interested in Linux. The average person just wants their desktop to look nice out of the box and maybe offer a dark mode. Anything more than that gets too complicated.

Edit: and yeah having access to programs like the MS apps is important but it’s not like that has to come before having an appealing desktop

Can you use the touchbar at all or do you basically just not have any FN keys?

Manjaro Je suis en train de faire le tour de la maison et je suis en train de faire le tour de la maison et je suis en train de faire le tour de la maison

Edit: I dont know why it switched to French

There are actual physical mushroom stores in my city even though it’s not legal in Canada. There’s one a few minutes away from me called The Mush Room. I love to see it, it reminds me of when weed was about to get legalized and stores were popping up before it was official.

I read that in a French accent

I remember having to reverse engineer an API owned by my own company because our team was too far removed from theirs. The whole situation was crazy

From my experience, companies would rather just pay for a commercial license. Anything abnormal gets trashed and banned in my company.

I think it’s more easy to understand “pay exactly this amount to use commercially” than the legal and accounting teams trying to work out how much to pay when you say 1% of their revenue to FOSS software. You can always donate the profits anyway

Ah damn, was worth a try I guess. Does seem like it’s a hardware issue then and needs a repair

Have you tried a BIOS update? I had an issue with my screen and thought I needed repair but it turns out some hardware issues are linked to the BIOS. These are the instructions steam support gave me, just on the off chance they help you:

To update to that BIOS you will need to opt into the ‘Main’ OS update channel:\

• Turn on Developer settings (steam button > settings > system > ‘Enable Developer Mode’)
• Turn on ‘Show Advanced update Channels’ in developer settings (steam button > settings > developer settings)
• Set Deck to ‘Main’ in OS Update Channel (steam button > settings > system)
• Select Apply under ‘Software Updates’ above and then select the ‘Restart’ once it is done.
• Once the Deck restarts and has loaded to the OS, unplug the external monitor to test if the Deck’s internal screen is now displaying correctly.

I’d love skylines 2 if I could just play it above 30fps on low graphics. I know I’d get a higher performance if I wasn’t playing it in Proton, but still. I have an RX 5700xt, it shouldn’t be this bad

I’ve loved the coverage of reddit from tech news sites. Pretty much all of them sound like the authors are also disgruntled users. It can’t be good for reddit’s stock price (even if it’s up at this moment)

Oh yeah, for sure as an answer to the OP question, but I’m still curious about their decyphering ability

Side question, but would ancient Romans be able to decipher a modern day language from one book? I’d imagine a language with Latin based words might be easy enough but not sure how equipped they were.

I miss /r/AskHistorians

Are there any plans for enabling a global menu like Unity had or if writing an extension for one is possible? I miss it every day 😅.

It’s looking great though! I’m very hyped to try it

Try setting scaling back to 1x but then set font scaling to 1.25 using Gnome Tweaks. I’m running two 4k monitors this way and it’s as good as true scaling with no blur

I used it recently to update the creation date of a bunch of notes. Just wanted them to display in the correct order in Obsidian. Besides that though, always just used it for file creation lol

I remember back like ten years ago, you had to run Steam inside wine if you wanted to even begin the process of getting a game to run on Linux.

It’s incredible how far we’ve come since then. Most of the time I don’t even bother checking compatibility before installing something. Most of the time it just works as if I was running Windows.

It is in Canada too but that doesn’t seem to stop companies from using the term

Pls no. I can only take so much Terraform
