I still burn them sometimes for the car.

Unfortunately it’s both.
Long Covid with ME has made me increasingly dumber. It sucks bad. I have difficulty finding words, following conversations, understanding long texts and just plain remembering things. It’s devastating to be more stupid but knowing that you could do better.
Just a few minutes ago I said I couldn’t play Leisure Suit Larry 7 because it’s too hard. Sucks ass.
Bazzite is probably the best Linux distribution for this purpose. It’s practically made for it. In terms of hardware, get an AMD GPU. Intel might also be ok, but they are pretty new so might have hidden caveats.
CPU, whatever you can afford I guess.
Do you have a budget?
C&H realising that all bad romance stories are just due to bad communication.
Let me guess, next comic Johnson is going to be employee of the week.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux2·4 days agoI used to have a Linux keyboard (with Tux instead of the Windows logo on super) with dedicated copy and paste keys. As far as I recall I never used them.
Doom is always great. FOSS up to Doom 3, but you still need the full games for the assets. If you don’t have them there is still Freedoom. And The Dark Mod is a great free Thief like game on the Doom 3 engine.
It also recently got a new class.
If I paid so much money it better game the shit out of games. But I honestly doubt ARM can with the overhead of emulation. And they don’t even specify what kind of nvidia graphics it has. This tells me that the system isn’t really meant to be used for gaming.
Due to disability I practically live in my bed. I often sleep on nuts, noodles, peas and rice. Once I slept on a chicken nugget.
I wish there was some universal standard for tagging files that would stay with the files. I have them in so many devices and all of them would benefit from the improved search.
I guess stuffing it into the filename is the only way. Of course that messes with stuff that needs a specific filename.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•What's a good, beginner-friendly distro that allows for easy switching between GNOME and KDE?9·11 days agoNot only that, you can use the programs from one desktop environment in the other one. Really confused me the first time I used Linux because it had installed both Gnome and KDE and I was wondering why I had two of almost every type of app. But I really liked Gnome’s Solitaire.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•I swapped the entire school computers to linux mint200·11 days agoWoohoo, some hacker kid is about to install Sober and Prism and will be the hero for everyone.
My kid’s elementary school has a computer club handling all the PCs. The other day they were surprised to hear that the PCs they were playing GCompris, Ktuberling, Pingus, Super Tux, Tuxpaint and Tux Kart on are running Linux.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•What's a good, beginner-friendly distro that allows for easy switching between GNOME and KDE?131·11 days agoMost of them should be able to handle that easily. Even those that come in “flavors” like Kubuntu. OpenSUSE certainly does. You just install them both or start with one and install the other later and in the login manager you can choose which one to start.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Khan is hugely relatable521·12 days agoI mean, that depends on the watch and could be exactly how it works.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•Seeking info on how to update OS from an img file4·14 days agoSteamOS is immutable. While you can unlock the root filesystem pacman needs a little bit more setup to work. And updating with pacman might break stuff. And everything you do with it will be lost on a proper SteamOS update.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•Seeking info on how to update OS from an img file4·14 days agoWhat exactly do you want to achieve? Why do you not just use SteamOS’s own update mechanism?
Is it only when you use the mouse or keyboard? Used to have something similar a few years ago on my Steam Deck with some games. Never figured out what it was and I think it doesn’t happen anymore.
