it really sucks tho, because most chromium forks still force you to use a google account in order to sync, and thats if they don’t strip google entirely. there’s brave, but I haven’t had the best of experiences with that browser.
I can still self host something like floccus to “sync” bookmarks, and use kde connect to send browser tabs from one device to another, but I still wish it was as convenient as firefox; which iirc, let’s you self host their sync service
I think I somewhat recall during the peak Wii U disaster era, during shareholder meetings Nintendo would call the games for the system “Software”. So, that’d definitely backfire on them I’m sure
Not sure if this will help, but find my device on F-Droid is awesome. You can use generic SMS and send “fmd locate” or you can use third party apps such as signal. This makes it so it’ll only trigger whenever you receive that text message rather it running 24/7
It allows you to setup a trusted set of contacts who can then send you a text message “fmd locate”, and it’ll reply with an openstreetmaps link showing where you are. It’s not real time tho
And you can disable it simply by turning off your location
Calling unions “legacy institutions” is a dangerous take
When I was 13 and still watching LTT I had an extremely old dell optiplex with a 3rd or 4th gen i7 that was really starting to slow down on Windows; I just thought it was old hardware (partially true) but then LTT released a video about Pop_OS and was like “oo what’s Linux” and just deleted Windows and installed it. Never looked back! Everything was super snappy and I was really shocked.
yeah, Linux is a kernel, not an OS, build whatever you want onto it.
There’s no emulation. Worst case scenario, the game is using Microsoft’s proprietary DirectX graphics API, so we translate those calls to Vulkan or OpenGL with DXVK. That’s simply out of our control since we cannot see or modify the code, but everything else is running on Linux.
Intel actually uses DXVK on Windows for better compatibility and performance for their Arc GPU’s.
what?
greg just fucking cooked
imagine not being a gigachad bringing your nintendo 3ds, that actually has a physical switch to disable wireless communication and can record videos and take pictures that totally don’t look like they’re from 2011
No, if it’s working for you, why bother? Unless you’re the adventurous distro hopper, stick to what’s working for you. I’d only take the time to switch my home to bazzite if Nobara started causing problems.
Gaming.
if you game on Linux you wanna go with bazzite, games “just work” on there without any tweaking or fixing or patching. And in the rare case you do need to patch a game like gmod, they have a built in script for it like ujust fix-gmod
unless maybe it automatically restarted and put all my applications back on screen that I had running, not sure. but I know it didn’t shut down since I literally hit the power button and it was immediately on, it was asleep.
they have an option which lets you turn off automatic updates
and with immutable distro’s, you can always rollback to a previous state instantly and not update the OS if you don’t want to, just the applications.
goodluck! hopefully Manjaro won’t push another broken package!
Bazzite is my first true experience with an immutable distro, and wow, what a magical moment it was.
I’ve been eyeing on fedora 40’s release for some time now because it fixes all the Wayland problems for Nvidia cards. One night my grandma needed some help, so I walked away from my PC, it automatically suspended, came back 30 or so minutes later, and when I logged in I was just automatically on KDE 6 with fedora 40, didn’t even reboot.
This is truly the year of the Linux desktop.
was just curious if like other video game series the story isn’t in sync with the time they were released if that makes sense
why would they post this on April first this is amazing
They allow you to use a link instead for saving settings, which can also be used to set as your default search engine
