Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux For Your Grandma - A Linux guide for those that are not super techy
285·3 months agoI agree with you, however: People have no fear changing things in regedit or 10 layers deep in the control panel to make windows more like it was “before”.
Linux us just unfamiliar. That makes it more scary. So having tutorials like this makes it more accessible.
Sorry, I apparently don’t know how to read. Thanks.
Steam deck? Or an old laptop with bazzite?

2·6 months agoI put more. But the ones I use less are on the bottom. So it’s there for quick use, but I don’t have it there all the time.

Steam@lemmy.ml•Valve registers a "STEAM FRAME" trademark for new computer hardware
3·6 months agoCould it be a steam deck with only streaming capabilities? Like a handheld steam link? I mostly use my steam deck this way, so for people that would hypothetically be using it this way, it could be a cheaper option.

7·8 months agoTell that to circuit board designers. It’s horrible every time a 3d model of a circuit board is added. The component height gives no visual advantage, and it’s slow as shit on corporate computers.

Android@lemmy.world•Need Android Launcher RecommendationEnglish
1·9 months agoIt does not tick all boxes, but I think smart launcher might tick most boxes. I’ve used it for almost a decade now. Drawer is organized into categories automatically. Which makes my home screen a single page, and everything is easy to find. The search works great for apss not easily found
It changed too fast. Halfway through the sentence the clock was already wrong again.

Android@lemdro.id•Google Wallet requiring authentication to even open the app after a few minutesEnglish
30·10 months agoGoogle wallet won’t work with a custom rom with a way more recent security update. However, it will work on stock OS that hasn’t been updated for 3 years.
For that reason, fuck Google wallet, and Google pay.



%appdata% has a lot of it. Also while you’re there go up a folder, and have more folders with config and data files specific to either windows and/or programs and games.
