The future of Linux
  • For someone who knows what they're doing maybe, but this is about those who don't, which is 99% of people.

  • There so many and they are so good
  • Do you have any recommendations?

  • Paradox how could you
  • I heard someone on Discord claim that the depth of field dropped the performance significantly, and they could run it stable once they disabled it.

  • Five apps😅 not so many for me
  • I think Youtube Revanced let's you disable shorts.

  • Help me choose a distro, please!
  • As others are saying, Debian is nice and stable. Its also pretty barebones, which gives you a lot of control. However, it uses older packages, meaning you'll need to rely on flatpaks to get new features.

    If you're willing to lose a bit of stability in exchange for newer features and more control, you may also want to look into arch or endeavorOS. Arch uses a command-line installation whereas endeavor uses a graphical installer, but otherwise they're pretty similar.

  • This is from Ayaneo, who make mostly high-end handheld PCs. This one is using a similar chip to the ROG Ally, so its a Windows handheld, and quite a powerful one.

  • IRS will pilot free, direct tax filing in 2024
  • Well have fun when your house burns down, cause the fire department certainly isn't gonna come there without getting paid.

  • rule yeah
  • Hell yeah

  • I had a dream about windows and have decided to setup Linux on my laptop. What distro should I use?
  • Suggestions: Linux Mint: this is the most popular recommendation for new users. Its nice and stable, uses a familiar Windows-like layout, and should just work out of the box. Pop_OS!: this one is another popular option, which uses a layout similar to MacOS and has lots of features such as window tiling. It does use older package and isn't often updated, however. Zorin OS: this one is pretty similar to Linux Mint. It also offers some additional desktop layouts, but some of these are paid, so if you want an entirely free experience, this is not the best option.

    Suggestions for if you enjoy suffering: Arch Linux: Requires manual installation. You have to download and configure all the things yourself. Good option for advanced users who want complete control over their system and all packages installed on it. Otherwise, stay away. Arch-based distros (Endeavour, Garuda, etc): Far simpler to install, but will likely require regular maintainance, due to frequent updates.

  • [News] Here’s the first proof a refreshed Steam Deck is nigh - The Verge
  • If its slightly smaller and has an OLED screen, then it'll be great. Those are really the only things the current Steam Deck needs.

  • Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of September 24th
  • The Aether mod for Minecraft was recently ported to 1.20.1, so I've been working on a modpack that's centered around it and a few addons for it.

  • Unity makes major changes to controversial install-fee program ...😑
  • I still think its a terrible idea to start a new project in unity, but for developers who are too far into a project to reasonably switch without spending a lot of time or money (like Ultrakill or Silksong), this is good as it means they can finish their games without having to worry about a passive income loss which could put them out of business.

  • whatever convinces people that its a bad idea
  • I can see them being a game changer for the medical industry, but before I'd trust putting them into anyone's brains they need to be regulated into the ground first.

  • Unity Overhauls Controversial Price Hike After Game Developers Revolt
  • Its such a shame that Ultrakill has zero downloads and as such has to pay no fees.

  • Nintendo switch 2 akin to PS4/XBO power
  • The Switch 2 is also (likely) a handheld, and the Steam Deck is also similar in performance to the ps4/xbox as well, and only came out a year ago, so I wouldn't expect anything much more than that (especially since the Switch 2 will probably be smaller and have a bigger battery).

  • I HATE electron
  • Its not 1990 anymore, you have more than 2 megabytes of ram.

  • Lemmy World is now on Matrix
  • Its closer to a texting app from my experience

  • They're an instance that claims to be far left, but are mostly authoritarian CCP/USSR fans. Its also impossible to talk to them because they brigade and troll anyone they dislike.
