I bought a laptop yesterday, it came pre-installed with Windows 11. I hate win 11 so I switched it down to Windows 10, but then started considering using Linux for total control over the laptop, but here’s the thing: I keep seeing memes about how complicated or fucky wucky Linux is to install and run. I love the idea of open...
I was once like you. You can do it. I like Linux mint. Here’s how to install it: Go to www.linuxmint.com and see what it’s about. It’s friendly, it’s very Windows like, it just works. Go here for the install guide: …readthedocs.io/…/latest/Pick an .iso file and download it. Go to etcher.balena.io/#download-etcherTo download the program that puts .iso files on USB drives. Use the Balena Etcher program to burn the .iso onto a USB thumb drive. Put your non-redownloadable files with sentimental value in another drive and remove the drive from your computer. Do not skip this step, order another drive if you have to (INB4 new laptop, but don’t forget this with your other machines). Plug in the USB drive that has Linux Mint on it. Power off your computer. Wait 20 seconds. Power on your computer. Mash the F2, F10, F12, and F5 keys until you get to the bios screen, or get to the bios screen if you know some other way. Find the setting that says something like “boot priority” and put USB drive above your C drive. Save and power off. Wait 20 seconds. Power on. Press F12 or whatever key you need to to get to the boot selection screen. Choose the option to boot from the Linux Mint USB drive. This is where you can test drive Linux before installing. Try ctl-alt-t to bust open a terminal. The terminal is your friend, but not required for the install. Close terminal with the command ‘exit’ or ctl-d or ctl-c ctl-d. Double click the install icon on the desktop. Follow instructions. Choose to delete windows forever from your life and put Linux on the hard drive. Follow instructions, they are no harder than any other wizard you have seen to install software. Reboot. Enjoy. Here are some tips: The terminal is your friend. Commands for learning the terminal, because the terminal can teach you to use the terminal (man is short for manual): man man man apt man ls man cd man vi man nano man less man pipe man mkfifo man rm apt search game —> searches for the keyword 'game" apt update ----> this is how to update your cache. Use it to pull your software updates apt upgrade ----> this is how to apply the updates to your machine.
—End terminal stuff— You can use your machine in the normal way too, same as any windows machine. Look around and explore. All the stuff in the software center is free (gratis). There’s lots of stuff. No more .exes to get software. Look at www.fsf.org to discover why free software is important.
If you have trouble you can DM me. I will help if I can. Good luck, you got this.
Hallo zusammen,
eine E-Mail von Chris habt ihr es zu verdanken, dass ich heute einen neuen Download bereit gestellt habe, nämlich das "Best of MD No 1" - eine Zusammenfassung mehrerer Artikel des Midgard-Digest, die einst (1999) als Sammelband im Eigenverlag veröffentlicht wurde.
Den Download findet ihr hier: https://www.drosi.de/latex/Best_of_MD_01.pdf
Viel Spaß damit!
Liebe Grüße

The last time I tried emulation on a desktop PC, whether it was Windows or Linux, I had to install each emulator separately. It was a bit of a mess....

The Samsung's new feature "Improve Quality" works really well for analog photo scans. I wish I had such a tool on my PC.
And yeah, it's me on the photo. 🙂
Relaxa amiguinho, o processo dura só uns 20~30 minutinhos, c consegue instalar antes do seu windows iniciar rsrs. Você só precisa de:
Um pendrive de pelo menos 4gb.
Deve ser fácil até, se não tiver, vai te custar uns 10 conto no camelô aí, mas considerando que você tem impressora, e que ela é importante pra ti, imagino que você tenha um monte deles aí, só, tenha certeza que o seu pendrive tá novo e funfando sem problemas, ferrugem ou amassados na entrada podem te dar problemas.
Escolher uma distribuição Linux.
O conceito de distribuição Linux é meio confuso, então faz esse teste aqui e mostra o resultado.
Ter a ISO do sistema instalado dentro do pendrive.
Na aba downloads do site da sua distro, provavelmente ele vai te baixar um arquivo “.iso” guarda ele com carinho que você vai precisar.
Criar um pendrive bootável com a ISO.
Lembrando que esse processo limpa a seu pendrive por completo, então faz um backup rápido aí, se precisar.
Não precisa se assustar com o termo, é tão fácil fazer quanto apertar alguns poucos botões, e é mais rápido que o tempo do café dá manhã, pra agora, é simples, baixa a versão de windows desse app, pode ser a versão instalável, ou portátil, não importa, mas acho que e versão “portátil” é mais direta ao ponto, já que é só dar 2 cliques no arquivo executável.
É fácil fácil usar esse programa, só escolher a ISO, (arquivo que você baixou no 3º passo), o pendrive e clicar em “iniciar”, em menos de 5min deve estar pronto.
Quando tiver pronto, me responde que eu te ajudo com o resto :^)
Si vous aimez avoir des pubs dans vos applications sur smartphone ou tablette, surtout n'utilisez pas NextDNS. NextDNS filtre et bloque les sous-domaines utilisés pour diffuser dans pubs dans vos applis.
@Erdrokan non, il faut la prendre via un store d'applications comme f-droid qui la gardera à jour etc.
Ou un .apk (équivalent .exe pour Android)
C'est facile, il y a juste Google qui gueule au début que tout ça n'est pas vérifié par lui et qui demande d'activer l'option d'installation d'applications tierces. https://newpipe.net/#download
