Rivals of Aether is like a PC smash brothers knockoff but it’s actually really fun and has a lot of mods for community made characters. I really recommend it.

maybe I’m not cultured enough, but I find rivals more fun than smash

I don’t think hk is that demanding tbh.

If you are going to play it then you need to complete the 2D indie game trifecta with Celeste and Rain World though

you can get real keys by putting the t420 ones on the t430

eternity is amazing and works really well, I’ve had no issues so far

at least he doesn’t look like an amphibian

wow that’s so surprising cant believe capitalistic profit centric big tech would do that oh my god no way

this is such a great app, thank you for forking it! I’ve had a flawless experience so far (except the other comment loading issue, but pretty sure thats a 0.18.4 issue not infinity)

it’s not going to stop unless you have a good replacement

it works on my kde neon by default

then MOVE.

they’re too micro soft to acknowledge that bash is better than cmd

I don’t think debian is good for first time users because:

• the downloads page 🗿
• sudo isn’t setup out of the box
• most guides refer to ubuntu 20.04/22.04

imagine being able to talk about how Reddit is down on reddit, the fediverse is literally black magic

I usually just link to sh.itjust.works because I like the admin there and think he’s cool

also it’s not too big like lemmy world

Also I think it’s better to subtly convert redditors to lemmies by posting content from lemmy, that way they’ll discover it themselves

what??? why do you lose credit by getting hit by a car? that’s insane

i love this theme, the thin colours are beautiful

tbh I like mint, but for people that want to learn linux I think ubuntu is better.

There’s more people using it, so you get better support, and there’s other flavpurs available so things like kde and xfce are supported well right out the box

I don’t recommend wsl because it bodges the worst part of windows (windows terminal) onto linux. Also, it’s much nicer to learn in a vm where you are learning actual linux, instead of MS’ interpretation of linux.

It’s like playing with clay in a bag, versus playing with clay with your bare hands.

yeah, but also account for the cost of a battery replacement

ThinkPad T430

pros:

• old
• extremely cheap
• usable performance, can be upgraded to average performance
• libreboot compatible
• very compatible with Linux
• great keyboard (if you mod it with a t420 keyboard)
• trackpoint (controversial)
• hot swappable batteries
• repairable
• display can be upgraded to IPS if you manage to find a converter board

cons:

• old
• bad battery life (if you keep the stock one)
• TN panel
• not blazing fast (more than enough for the tasks you mentioned though)
