It work none the less, I’m at a stage in my life I rather have stability rather then bleeding edge, I used to enjoy fixing things, till issues started happening when I really needed to work, instead of spending hours fixing wifi drivers.

Only reason I had oibaf drivers was because I was once trying to get game scope to fix a bug with mouse controls on war thunder for Linux. Was dependency issue hell, so after 2 hours I ended uninstalling it and not trying the game.

Never used redshift only to see what the heck it was.

I will be honest I didn’t know much about kde as only had experience with gnome and cinnamon, when plasma 6 dropped I decided to look into it, and ended up liking it a lot more than cinnamon… Didn’t feel like setting up/downloading things again when distro hopping so I back ported kde from kubuntu.

Turned everything cursed white, instead of beautiful blue like it should be.

Didn’t try different user (since i don’t have any other), it was on boot menu and both x11 cinnamon and kde plasma, wasn’t on the experimental cinnamon on Wayland tho.

Every movie ever when in the desert

No option on plasma 5 that I could find, I learned that it was a graphics driver that updated and caused all this, thankfully I had automatic backups setup.

Your message actually helped me find a post of mint forums who had the same problem the day before it happened to me, was a graphics driver from oibaf ppa.

Was yellow with x11 plasma and cinnamon except cinnamon on Wayland was normal, I tried switching to lightdm and it was giving me errors.

I found someone had same issue a day before on mint forums. Apparently it was a graphics driver from oibaf ppa.

I forgot I had timeshift setup monthly (changed it to weekly), so I restored it and everything looks fine. I didn’t lose anything because I was so busy that I only had energy to played Factorio after work which are steam cloud synced.

Old image but this is how it uses to look like, not sure how it’s based off of background

My background isn’t yellow, it’s mountains with a blue sky.

I believe this might be an issue with an app called redshift that automatically comes with mint, it uses geoclue2 which relies on Mozilla Location Service which got shut down like 2 weeks ago. Maybe it malfunctioned that even uninstalling it doesn’t help

I decided the nuclear option using mint with kde plasma 5

Well I did switch to opensuse tumbleweed, liked kde plasma a lot so while setting up weekly backups, I ended up… uh… “overwriting” it and my last external backup was a month old mint backup, so to not set things up again I just install kde on mint and said F it.

It’s not true admin privileges, windows won’t let you delete system32 the normal way, Linux on the other hand will tell you good luck and bail as you delete everything

Man, I love BIG servers, I hate the power bill that comes with it.

Fine, my broke ass only has the budget for a few tiny computers anyway. I pick up too many hobbies with the excuse that it’s a great skill for future sustainablity like self hosting, programming, 3d printing, and micro soldering.

I nuked my system so many times, everything from not knowing what I was doing to using disk partion when tired and forgetting to select the usb.

Good thing my intro to Linux was through servers, I have a NAS with all my work files backed up as well as a second spare SSD that clones main SSD once a week.

When you add the main panel on a different screen it saves the app layout exactly, don’t remember if it keeps clock the same, but you can add that yourself.

I prefer how cinnamons window manger works better, but kde is awesome so I switched.

You just add a panel to every screen as it doesn’t do it automatically, but if you want a taskbar where the open apps are visible from different monitors on the panel then you could try using kubuntu backports for kde 5 on mint, go with the minimal install. You still need to manually add the panel to extra monitors, but they are linked together.

I wouldn’t call it a dangerous opinion, Ubuntu is a great starter distro and was probably top dog back then, it is just that their recent actions have been not liked by the Linux community.

I personally fell in love with opensuse tumbleweed w/ kde 6, but I do want to give fedora a try at some point as well.

Sounds like most AAA games we where promised but never got

Don’t have experience with either app but it kind of looks like a way to play games from other platforms on android, I was trying to play android games with a controller because some have controls that are weird to play with on screen.

My other option at this point might be PC emulators of android, but none of them are as good as windows emulators (like BlueStacks) on linux

I don’t like when my PC/phone have a bunch of applications, so I try to delete all the ones I rarely use. Still some might find my devices bloated, but if I need/use them then I don’t see an issue.
