feel like a shill but it suprised me with how solod it is i dont need an upgrade or change a year in like i thought i might

hard to type but thats all tablets lol i also use nomad sculpt sometimes

best nits for bribhtness and good batterylife at the price its quick and has a microsd slot

using s9fe rnow on sale its lowkey amazi g vsn run tenkaich ps2 emulation i use it for comics yt and stremio piracy but i tested games

Gnome with extensions like dock to panel and arcmenu (need those two at least but with them its pretty near perfect), or kde plasma are your best bet, plasmas almost too easily customizable I find myself messing with it a lot.

If you want immutable go bazzite, cachyos I initially dualbooted before erasing my whole drive and reinstalling because I didnt want to deal with windows ever again, piracy is harder, other than that everything I use works.

Cachyos works perfectly fine for me, it installs all the packages has a cachyos steam compatibility thing, just works for everything, had to install blender off the official site because the aur package has issues and had to grab those amd drivers seperately but thats about it

I havent used it in 15 years and will prob keep that up, used to weirdly love photo editing

We do? Some ppl dont, we have sugarcane, oranges, lemons, eggplants, peppers, and I forget the rest, my dad/grandpa are more into gardening. Its just not realistic to do a lot, cheaper and a lot faster to go the grocery storec more variety, hoemgrown stuff is ususlly more of an addon.

I enjoy learning vfx through houdini, id be doing it still if it wasnt so annoying to get on linux (im not paying for it, that 260$ a year cost is for me ppl making money and id do it if I was)

Blender is hella fun, like the ultimate sandbox game, cities skylines with no constraints (except much harder) I think with more and more addons it’ll be the perfect sandbox creative city builder. Like procedural roads, cities, procedural terrain, buildings, etc. When the laxk of freedom in those games dissapoint you just make animations, the end goal in some of these games like planet coaster is to have something cool to look at and modify freely, the economy means nothing, might as well make it in blender.

cachyos is easiest way to arch, I found the install to be easier than bazzite, its all graphical, very straightforward, just works, imo gnome with extensions is superior to plasma rnow if you want a clean modern look, plasma can get you one too, gnome just feels more crafted. Plasma feels more like an easily tinkerable windows ui, imo in a year itll be nice.

Reason why I talk about gnome and plasma more than distros is that reslly decides your day to day a bit more, bazzite gnome vs plasma or if cachyos you can have both, requires some tinkering. I go back and forth but gnome is the one where I actually end up using my laptop more and feeling good about the look with minimal extensions/tinkering. Gnome without extensions is bottomtier tho imo, not much customization by default (to be fair extensions are built in and a default thing)

I see no reason to switch rnow, but atomic blue distros like bazzite should be safer long term and in general. Backups, fixes issues on reboot, stable with tested updates, etc. You can change to another without losing your files/data. Can’t easy effect settings, etc. Im a tinkerer tho, so cachy is superior, things that takes seconds would take minutes and workarounds on bazzite.

Seems annoying for tinkering, but good as a daily driver with minimal issues, i’m going bazzite if I get any issues with cachyos, reccomending bluefin/aurora to family that want to switch depending on if they like plasma or gnome, I like universal blue and how those distros work, if Linux was the only OS on this computer id go bazzite, for now I still have windows as a backup, so i’m going cachyos. I haven’t opened the windows side in 2 days tho, so I might just fully make the switch.

All YA books for a while targetted woman, boys get progression novels and litrpgs, but those didnt show up on book stores

Cachyos can access aur? Thats what Paru is for? I could be mistaken, still very new

You’re right, in practice tho itd work like dex having your own customized environment with all your files and software, except itd use whatever hardware its plugged into, imo if it had become common phones would be the hardware its usually using and encased in, plugging in to a computer would give you dex mode, hence working like dex (but not hardware wise when in desktop mode)

Kinda like external gpus when they were popular with slim and thin laptops hardwarewise going from laptop to desktop in the same environmennt.

Would be cool for android to have a desktop mode that uses the hardware its plugged into, let you boot from your phone like a live usb (I think thats what live usbs are)

Twitter was developing the at protocol and bluesky, think they always saw it eventually dying and had bluesky as their backup

You can install them, just not by default and not reccomended*

I think flatpaks aren’t supported by cachy because they inherently have some performance issues?

Ngl this type of post on reddit used to make me depresssed as a kid and id make them too, dont want to see them, theres no point in thinking about this thats why ppl either dont or spend all their time religious

Because you dont know jack shit no one does, might as well wait til the longest possible length to figure out the unknown
