Methinks right wing preppers know exactly what they are doing and are preparing to rob and loot the community-building efforts that other people create communally after the fall. But hey, that’s just a theory. 💅

(adding to the reasons people already cited: Israel is where the us launches its imperialist attacks on the middle east from, so they have a strategic reason to keep it around)

Ah yes

Brainwashing

VinesNFluff, 16 days ago

I feel like a lot of the reason people are hesitant to hop into Linux is because of how everything that goes “under the hood” requires a bunch of terminal commands and text file changes.

Ironic, then, that I learned how to Linux the hard way – In distros that expected exactly that from me. I cut my teeth in Arch and its siblings and sure, I can do that.

But it’S SO MUCH FASTER AND EASIER to just click a few buttons and then shit just works. YaST is bliss.

Like. DUDE. I don’t have to edit some files and then clench my asshole for 55 seconds while rebooting when I change a few entries in Grub.

And Zypper actually CHECKS what processes are running and what packages you’re installing, and actually tells you if you do or don’t need a reboot, instead of a blanket “hmmmm we updated, should probably reboot but idfk, that’s your problem now” which is what both apt and pacman gave me.

Quality of Life, it’s really underrated.

Aw yisss, someone else using SUSE

I tried a lot of different distros, but SUSE’s YaST tools are the shit. No distro has anything quite like them.

Geez mate I’m a commie too but you sure do spam. T’is getting old.

I’m willing to bet that, like Linux usage statistics, Steam Deck had something to do with this.

Anyway, I wish I could switch to Wayland, but back when I used it it caused a dozen programs I use everyday to get very crashy.

VinesNFluff, 11 days ago

After doing some sniffing: Yes AND no

The default “gaming mode” that the Deck boots into is running wayland, specifically valve’s own gamescope compositor which has a lot of workarounds and breaks from wayland’s spec to allow for better gaming performance.

When you quit out to “desktop mode” it loads into KDE Plasma with X11, although with recent changes to Plasma, it may well be that the desktop mode will change to being wayland based too.

Sorry I’m a little horse.

Unfortunately Wayland breaks Inkscape and GIMP and even caused Firefox to be unstable for me.

Thanks but no thanks?

Maybe in 5 years. Let it stay in the oven for a bit longer.

Yeah I have gamemode and use it.

But I see.

It might? I don’t use exclusive fullscreen ever. :P I’m too ADHD for that. I always have chat windows on my second screen and am constantly tabbing out on load screen and shit.

VinesNFluff, 5 days ago

Ooooo fancy. Noted, will attempt.

Oy could you let me know when the plasma 6 version is done? This seems like a great tool.

Oh! I am not the only one!

Good. I thought I had fucked something up. Now I guess it’s something that is out of my hands.

Guess I’ll just keep playing the ones that do work (it’s not a lot of them).

Edit: Well, this dumbass here doesn’t have btrfs and can’t use snapper. BUT. I downloaded an older version of the kernel (from the 30th of last month) from the SUSE repo and installed that. I’ll try rebooting later and see if it makes a difference.

Edit 2: WELL it didn’t work. Trying to boot into the older kernel caused other things to break. System seemed to load with a generic graphics driver instead of the proper driver for my AMDGPU… ? I imagine I’d have to downgrade more packages than just the kernel itself for things to actually function, but that is beyond by knowledge. Back to plan A of hoping it gets fixed. :P

It’s almost like having your only strategy be “we are slightly better than the alternative” leads to the alternative racing you to the bottom and you being shit as well.
