Yeah sadly, whenever you say PC / Laptop people associate it with windows. You buy one of these, its windows. People dont even know what else is out there.
Just dont look at Ubisoft. 💀
Ad/promotion appeared in offline games whenever you opened the map…
For windows you dont need to buy it, you can activate it using microsofts own tools, its on github (dont remember its name right now.)
As for linux, i would recommend openSUSE Tumbleweed, it is fresh, and the best part about it is that whenever you update the system, it creates a snapshot, so if the update had some kind of undesired sideeffects, you can just startup the old version. (These snapshots only effect the system’s packages, your apps will keep their state iirc. My brother uses tumbleweed and he is very content with it.)
Yeah, if there is one thing that windows 11 does well is looks. I think its fancy.
Yeah same. I still use youtube for example, but not gmail, google search or windows. These three are huge, in gathering info.
Yeah, like people say ‘I already use windows/google search/whatever, so it does not matter if i switch email provider/ whatever’.
What?? I so hate this mentality: ‘If you cant eliminate / change it fully, then why bother?’ Bruh, small steps can go such a long way man…
If its a laptop, then it has a built-in UPS as well. Plus extra peripherals are not needed either!
But imagine, if you could just press win+number and then go to the exact workspace you want! Which KDE Plasma allows you to do.
I seriously cant get used to using win+ctrl+arrows. If i could change this, and with powertoys windows would not be that bad.
It should be fine I think. On Linux you can have multiple Desktop Environments installed (ex KDE Plasma & Gnome as well.)
I tried Hyprland a few months ago like this. I had Plasma installed then installed hyprland as well. During login with SDDM you can select which DE to launch.
Edit: On github it says you should install it alone to make sure. I dont know then, maybe it works? I am still new to Linux as well.
2 years left still. Hopefully by that time Linux gains enough popularity that developers consider supporting it. At the very least Ubuntu.
But gotta admit, its a damn good launcher! If i had to use windows again, I would install it instead of the other two for sure!
Nice! We are looking into it with my boss and one other colleague. Im really hoping it goes through and I can finally use Linux at work!
Its crazy how polarizing the Linux experience can be. Was it a desktop or laptop? For me it was just a few clicks (Manjaro then Endeavour) on the first try and be done with it on my desktop PC. Also with dual booting.
Hopefully next time you will have more luck! “Sadly” I cannot go back to windows now, I got Linux-pilled. Linux just treats my right without any Microsoft ads.
Ohh, I havent thought about backing it up with Syncthing! Thank you!
If you need a UI to have albums and share them then yes, the previously mentioned Immich. I host it as well, and it is truly awesome.
One caveat though: it is still pretty early in development, there might be breaking changes. For example a few weeks ago you needed to update the docker compose file because they changed dependencies.
Yeah i guess you are right. Did not even think about it.
I dont know really, havent used paid versions of JetBrains products. I was always just eyeing with them.
Because you need to pay for further patches / newer versions, and need to pay 12 months worth to be able to use without a subscription.
It gets cheaper each year, so it incentivizes you to pay year to year.
Collecting downvotes eh?
