No offense but this is highly anecdotal. When my Linux systems broke, I’ve always found good leads to solutions on the internet with a good search. On the other hand, every time Windows broke on me, it’s been near impossible to find relevant information as everything is drowned in a sea of basic nonsense, and the built-in tools that were supposed to help me, e.g., revert the system to a previous state, either errored out or did nothing, leaving me only with reinstalling the whole system as an option. Absolute nightmare.

I daily drive endeavour and love it to bits but let’s not recommend it to someone who wants an OS with no fuss. It WILL break and require experience to fix. Remember the grub update fiasco?

A LOT of people’s PCs were bricked, including mine. No boot, just blank screen with blinking cursor. Thankfully Endeavour’s team was quick to react (quicker than Arch, as it happens) and published a full tutorial on how to chroot into your system and downgrade grub, but that already required a good level of knowledge and confidence in the Linux system as none of this was trivial, or intuitive for any stretch of the imagination. I woudl imagine most affected EndeavourOS users who were new-ish to Linux threw the towel that day. Wouldn’t blame them, it was jarring even for me, and it wasn’t my first chroot.

It’s exactly the opposite for me. Why? Because I’m just not used to Windows and nothing is where I expect it, or works as I would expect, and a lot of it makes no sense to me. On the other hand, I’ve been daily driving Linux since 2010 and I know what to do for most of the things I want to change in my system.

It’s literally just a matter of what you’re used to. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Yeop, you can say that again. Can’t read the Arch wiki on a Nokia 3310 for sure lol

Tbh I’m not too careful about updates, I have regular backups and grub exploding wasn’t enough to stop me, so eeeeh, if something really goes awfully wrong I have enough free time to deal with it and use it as a learning experience. I know I should be smarter about them like you are, but on my personal computer I just cannot be asked. ^^

Wow when you out it that way it sounds even dumber

is it true that trans women like linux and are developers of open source???

i know that can be a stereotype but ive seen a lot of that, trans women are very based and cute so it wouldnt suprise me, and fun fact the reason why i moved to linux at first was because im nonbinary so that was kind of a requirement, but then i loved linux a lot but sadly i dont study linux science that would be amazing

Thank you so much! <3

I’ll be honest, it was a struggle, especially with yarn this thin, and I almost gave up, but I’m glad I didn’t! ^^

Also don’t feel bad for failing to pick up crocheting, that happened to me too the first time. It was such a disaster that I didn’t touch a crochet for about 25 years lol

How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?

I was going through Pine64’s page again after I found the latest KDE announcement. With that said, I seem to see a lot of issues with firmware on the Pine, whilst the Librem is just plain out of budget for me. Was interested in how many people here run a Linux mobile as a daily driver, and how has your experience been?...

That answer doesn’t mean shit when it’s actually affecting your well being. I hope you can find a doctor who takes you seriously.

It doesn’t make sense if you think the heat is here to kill bacteria. However, heat helps detergents do their job, and most likely helps loosen biofilms given their composition.

If xrdp works well enough, NoMachine us blazing fast in comparison. Have you given it a try?

Nisaea,
@Nisaea@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

NoMachine is what you’re looking for. Full login remote desktop multiplatform solution like rdp/xrdp, but wayyy smoother.

Wait till you learn about the -X option ;)

Eyy, grew up on a Mac 512 myself and my first computer was an iBook G3! We don't have the 512 anymore but my G3 is still alive and kicking! Do you still have yours?

Oooh lucky! Man, having contacts in universities is precious for getting cheap oldies! Do you still have it?

Sweet! I use mine to help with data transfer between the Internet and the Plus. Works great for that.
