dino,

Its the best distro for gaming. Valve is using it, rolling distro.

dino,

Thanks for the link, so whats left is to have a proper rollback/snapshot feature. I know there are snapper integrations with btrfs for void. But they are not on par with e.g. Opensuse Tumbleweed.

dino,

Why play the old iterations? Is there a reason? I think the newer ones are more “beginner friendly”? With training modes and such.

dino,

Windows.

Work supposed to be done on the machine would be interesting.

dino,

The suggestions made here are already spot on and I can just support the suggestion to use the least amount of extra repos as possible. Packman is the only one I’d consider, also check your repos regularly and see if you can make sense which is what, otherwise get rid of the ones where you have no clue why you had them in the first place (obviously check first which packages they install).

dino,

I am long-time Tumbleweed user and it really boggles my mind how something like this goes past “quality control” and “testing”.

dino,

Not sure what you are saying?

The truth about linux having 15% market share in India.

I am from india. These numbers are inflated due to our population and government and health sector office pc using linux (ubuntu). These office pcs just require a chrome browser and all the work is done on the browser Nobody here cares what os they use in their office pc. I don’t see anyone here switching to linux on their...

dino,

they just use their phone because pc hardware is expensive and phones prices are cheap.

Lol, this is so wrong and misleading. Like the whole post. Even for 350 dollars you could buy a used laptop which probably is more able to properly browse/word process than any of your smartphones.

dino,

You work in IT but you distinguish between desktop systems and laptops? Why?

dino,

For text processing? Okay, checks out.

dino,

Yes, and I place the smartphone on my smartphoneholder glasses so I can actually see what I am typing on my bluetooth keyboard… oyoyoyoyoy

dino,

By SFF you are talking small form factor? To my knowledge there is only one big player in this field which is Intel NUC and I am not even sure THEY have business support. Thats a big argument for laptops, because you get proper business support compared to niche products like SFF devices.

But maybe I completely missed your point.

dino,

Most shortsighted answer of the day. Great now you have this outdated executable on your system and you mabye are not even sure this was installed through appimage, because how should you know when your launcher is not telling you anything? golfclap

dino,

When the description of a program on gh gives you more headache…I think its not doing a good job.

Are there any Windows-exclusive programs you use?

I had to test/fix something at work and I set up a Windows VM because it was a bug specific to Windows users. Once I was done, I thought, “Maybe I should keep this VM for something.” but I couldn’t think of anything that wasn’t a game (which probably wouldn’t work well in a VM anyway) or some super specific enterprise...

dino,

Bottom screenshot good example of why twm is not useful in this usecase. Also due to exaggerated use of gaps you are wasting screenspace, which is the opposite of what a twm actually is trying to do.

Vesktop seems interesting, going to check it out, thanks for mentioning.

dino,

ooh I am sorry then. ^^;

dino,

Whom you talking about in terms of “don’t trust someone” ? Also where is the connection between closed source and immutable distros?!

dino,

what does it better than any other terminal for twms?

dino,

Isn’t that overkill?
