That’s exactly it, Bazzite, a distro associated with gaming, running on hardware that even at release was criticized for being “landfill fodder”.

you mean the original Greek pronounciation, instead of the mess, that is “kai-mera”?

At least Ubuntu makes it easy to roam through their archives. Have fun :)

maybe a salo joke? at least that would be my first guess

I currently use endeavourOS and I am happy with it, due to it being “just Arch with some wallpapers and optional extras”.

I am open for more though, even if it’s just for trying out :)

One might even say… scaroused.

My journey was very uneven:

Windows (for many years) -> Ubuntu (for 2 months, dual-boot) -> Windows (for about 6 years, because of some very specific software + pre-Proton gaming) -> Linux Mint (for about a month) -> popOS (for almost a year) -> endeavourOS (now, but always on the look-out for new stuff)

But in between the “main” journey, there was always some stuff trying out, like Void (on an old PC), Arch (inside a VM, now use that VM as a lightweight environment for testing some stuff out)

As someone who does ride, I understand your perspective, but your proposal of banning motorcycles on weekends and public holidays would be only doing one thing: letting the rich fucks ruin your day on a weekday with their bobbed Harleys and tough-guy cosplay, while working-class people, who picked up the hobby, would yearn even more for fascism, because “tHoSe lEfTiEs wAnnA bAn eVeryThiNg”.

But noise control - yes, please. You are on the streets, not on a track.

It’s not really FOSS, just the software-equivalent of CC-BY-NC or CC-BY-NC-ND.

Post aside, why do people feel the need to “enhance” their screenshots with AI? (notice the “9183” or the subtext below)

Well, first: It was meant as a simple humorous comment, not hornyposting for oil barons/industrialists. If I haven’t made myself clear, my bad.

And: Even then, OOPs reaction was overreacting and giving the Internet, and Tumblr of all places, a wide attack vector.

(Btw - even when in 2070 the oil executives were to see their consequences, they would put the blame towards the common people, like they do today with things like “the CO2 footprint” as in “blaming the people instead of themselves, the aviation and maritime freight industries”)

…And why exactly does OOP feel attacked, being compared to the beast that is the Onecler?

I fully agree. Why do I have to install gnome-tweaks just to make the UI usable?

That is the sole reason the UAC exists in post-Vista Windows.

systemctl reboot --firmware-setup

That will reboot to UEFI setup instantly.

Recommending Yandex? Bit of a “hot take”, don’t you think?

At least for me, both my laptop (daily driver) and desktop would be considered old by this comic (2014 and 2017 respectively). Neither of them are struggling with the tasks I mostly use them for (writing notes, programming, light gaming on my desktop).

The only things they are struggling at, are modern video codecs and the ABSOLUTELY BLOATED shitshow that is today’s Internet experience.

Okay, but why is the watermark information wonky, as if it were generated by AI?

I personally have tried FreeBSD and some FreeBSD “distros” on the desktop, and have used *BSD-based stuff as servers/single-purpose machines.

As a desktop system (user-centric use case), you notice how hardware support is sometimes problematic, especially on laptops. I personally had problems with NVIDIA GPUs, already a problem on Linux, being a big problem here as well, and don’t mention WiFi (FreeBSD doesn’t support 802.11ac and up currently) or Bluetooth. Software-wise, if your applications do not have a *BSD version, well, then you are relying on Linux ports, which for desktop use isn’t exactly great.

But, in servers/headless setups, *BSDs are shining, with the most important things running rock-solid, stable and resource-friendly.

My dad is more of an 👍💪 guy, but understandable.
