Gnome is the best of the full DEs for productivity, because it just doesn’t get in the way

Btrfs does not stand for butterFS lmao

Buy AMD and consider switching to ubuntu 24.04. Install steam from the website.

I installed ubuntu 24.04 over my previous installation of 23.10 and had literally 0 issues, so I’m going to classify this as user error.

Most distros have something like this, on gnome you just right-click the bar that the other buttons are on

But systemd is modular. They make an offer and distro maintainers and admins get to choose which parts to use

There IS a plugin for zsh that does exactly that and I’ve been using it without issue for a few months now!

Why? I’ve been happily gaming on gnome for over two years now

These adapters only exist for pcie 3.0 and m.2 slots for ssds have 4 lanes at best, so you should expect performance to be between thunderbolt 4 and a full x16 slot in a desktop, but it’s been working very reliably for me and is absolutely faster than the iGPU in my laptop. You do typically need a desktop power supply connected to the adapter though, but since it only needs to power the card, it’s fine to go with a lower power one.

I have a laptop with an easily accessible m.2 slot, which I use with an m.2 to pcie x16 adapter to connect an external desktop grapics card to game and run ai. apart from that, a diy nas running opensuse and a couple vms for dns, remote nas access, etc

I bought a pixel from a german carrier in germany and installed GrapheneOS on it and this ‘app’ is still installed.

Vi yes, vim no

I just have them check for my wifi. If that’s what they’re connected to, then the nas is available. If not, then there’s no point trying to mount it. However, one day every month my nas pulls updates and shuts down afterwards, so that I need to boot it again when I get home from work. But my laptop boots just as fast as it normally does, even though it fails to connect to the nas.

Mod organizer has a linux install script on github that I’ve used without issues before. I play skyrim on Ubuntu 23.10 with well over 100 mods and it’s been largely just the same as on windows.

Write a systemd service, that’s how my computers mount my nas. you just need to have it run under your user instead of root or point it towards the right keys manually.

loop-unrolling.enable()

That’s what I do too.

6900XT on Ubuntu 22.04 with 0 issues. Maybe it’s an issue with recent mesa updates or your hardware

I know! I have to use windows at work (IT Admin) and using powershell always makes me wish the software we need ran on Linux. Just today I needed to extract a partition image with dism and it just did nothing for half an hour before the progress bar even came up. People say that Linux is buggy but gnome gives me way less headaches than windows 11.

I’ve been 100% Linux for over a year now. If it doesn’t run, I don’t buy it.
