@petsoi Beautifully written perspective; the KDE Activities bit of that was my favorite! Multiple workspaces on a single monitor is probably one of my most advocated features. I’m telling someone about it at least once a week, even if it’s just showin em how to use the cut-down one on their windows machine.

@lemmyreader @cafuneandchill PostmarketOS in chroot in termux in waydroid on PostmarketOS 🤘

@lemmyreader @electricprism There is someone who managed to convert a proot-distro version of #alpine into a #pmos one. It’s not as great as it may sound though.

@LukeSky #lutris is good for more’n just games 😉

@7_Stipend_Jackal Not really sure what you mean by “like Localshare”. Is that a specific piece of software, or do you just mean sharing files between two devices on a local network via whatever protocol?

I’ve played around with croc a while back just to test, seems okay.

@Lem453 Everything on that page refers to configuration problems. Most of them inferring a misunderstanding (or complete disregard) of the requirements that need to be implemented prior to configuring suspend-to-disk in order for it to work properly. Both the gentoo, and arch wikis have very thorough instructions on how to successfully incorporate this feature.

@drwho Whatcha mean by “not a sure thing”? Is there some issue with specific hardware, or configuration?

@JRepin Am I the only idiot who uses systemctl hibernate with a proper swap partition? Works perfect every time I’ve set it up.

@barbara Is bash itself not already an improvement on ““the basic stuff””?

…and whitespace in filenames is simply unacceptable, and should not be encouraged. 😆

What’s wrong with the method we’ve been usin forever of working with dumbly named files? Just "enclose em", or use\ an\ escape\ char in em.

@perishthethought You could very easily use #Lutris as a launcher for each game! Just set them up as you were launching a single game from the terminal. As far as a 3rd party GUI goes though, #RetroArch really is the most straight forward yer gonna find. Setting it up is not as huge an undertaking as it first appears. I’d be happy to help you get it configured if you need, just holler.

@Sunny @minamoog It’d be hard to argue for anything against #portage! The only time it’s not pleasing to look at is when it’s littered with [ B ] markers. 😆

@HouseWolf Maybe try testing the hardware on a known working system.

@twinnie Everything @d3Xt3r said, plus, #wayland just aint quite there yet. Do yer gamin in #X with #amdgpu and be happy.

@wwwgem I’ve been extremely pleased with @tuxedocomputers in both product quality and support. Next laptop will assuredly be another from them.

@imgel I wouldn’t consider #e16 a DE (still count?); but using that, I prefer having a frame-only window decoration. I use a simple #xdotool line in my #conkyrc to display the currently focused window.

${exec 'xdotool getactivewindow getwindowname'}

I’ve also used a combination of xdotool, randr, and eesh in the past to do tiling and arrangement.

@SeekPie Sometimes different, sometimes similar. Look into different software you enjoy using and find out what’s needed. If it’s something you can provide, and you feel like doing so, go fer it.

@SeekPie Documentation or translation assistance is almost always a good way to help.

@neogeo It’s been excellent, but again, I’m not doing very heavy work with it. Although, if I do play around with large models, it has no problem redering em. And games such as Star Citizen, Starfield, and Cyberpunk 2077, all run fantastic when turned up to 11.

@JokeDeity Seeing a device called “Bluez” trying to connect to your computer (in some undefined way) doesn’t necessarily mean it has anything to do with bluez.
