With the amount of Linux nerds on Lemmy, I’m shocked there’s an a TUI client for it.

Maybe I’ll have to make one someday.

Tbf I’ve heard crazier things which have ended up being true in the past week alone…

I should really look into peertube. With YouTube always breaking compatability with Newpipe and other apps, I’m tired of having to deal with YT’s outages

I remember when it used to be all the REALLY interesting stuff was root only, yet a lot of normal interesting stuff was non-root. Now even with root, modern Android can be a pain and the interesting stuff just pales in comparison with true Linux

… until you run into a problem which you can’t figure out on your own. Then you search the web, and only find how to do it with Y, instead of the technology you used which is called X. So after determining that you’re truly stuck, you switch to Y. Until you get stuck again, you search the web, and can only find how to do it in Z. And everyone online tells you you’re stupid to use X or Y in the first place. And the cycle continues.

This is why I gave up on being a web developer and stayed far away from JS.

Do you have a link? All I see in a quick internet search is about a crypto company

If it’s the Steam version, why not play through proton?

Just ot make it clear to OP, Stable does NOT nesesarily mean bug free. Just like how most people are on the “stable” branch of Windows 10 or 11,but they still encounter bugs, “stable” Linux distros can also have bugs.

The difference between “stable” and not stable is that: 1.) The system is “stable” in that it’s very unlikely to crash. Stable Linux distros are much preferred for servers, for instance. 2.) Any OS related bugs you find will still be there likely until the next big release. (with Debian iirc this is like every 4 years)

Totally agree with basically every point here. You hit the nail on the head. App images are the .exe’s of the Linux world and I don’t understand how someone can say they love app images but hate Window’s portable exe’s. Even Windows doesn’t have nearly as many portable executable as they once did. And when they do, most people (even those who prefer app images) prefer an exe with a Windows installer.

Anyways, this is all to point out why I avoid app images if at all possible

I can’t speak for the T460, but I have a T480 with dual batteries and battery swapping works just fine. With a bit of tinkering I was even able to get the fingerprint sensor to work as well

OpenSuse seems like it would meet your needs. OpenSuse Kalpa might be one to look into since it’s immutable and features KDE Plasma

Donkey Kong County Returns. Played it back when I was younger and it didn’t click with me. The platforming was too challenging and honestly I think I got too swept up in the hype around the game at the time.

Coming back to it later, I really appreciate it now. The music, animations and platforming is all sublime. It’s sequel, Tropical Freeze is my favorite 2d platfomer hands down. It’s an absolute joy to play

It depends on how tightly integrated it is into the OS. Like right now File Explorer is very tightly integrated with the desktop. So much so that if you can get File Explorer to t crash, it’ll most likely bring the entire desktop UI down with it.

Software is like a huge house of cards. You can’t take a card from the bottom without expecting the rest of the house to stand

I don’t think they’ve have one click methods to employ “EEA” mode or something like that. I think it’s more likely to be a version of Windows compiled specifically with these limitations in mind. You’ll likely have to install a specific variant of Windows for EEA

I wonder how this will work. So many registry tweaks which forcefully removed Edge also removed the “web view” and therefore broke a lot of parts of the OS. Maybe this is just removing the shortcuts, links and edge URIs from the OS

JasperRLZ and Displaced gamers g game the ideas and concepts about programming video games really interesting

Don’t worry, MS is planning to fix that soon I’ve heard. They’re just going to get rid of control panel and continue to dumb down Settings

Maybe look into a used Thinkpad P series? They run Linux well, are typically more affordable than a new laptop which will definitely be 1K upwards, and have a 16 inch screen

I haven’t used Irfanview in a long time now. Personally, I think there are many better alternates for it on Linux now.

Qview is open source, cross platform, and at least for me on Linux, is faster than Irfanview. I’m also a big fan of KDE’s Gwenview.

If you need to do batch conversion, Converseen does the job well since it’s basically just a GUI for ImageMagick

I just the Xperia phones weren’t ridiculous expensive. Why is it impossible to get all these features on a modern smartphone <$600 USD that’s not from a Chinese manufacturer?
