The moment Linux takes over as a dominant desktop/laptop OS we’ll start seeing a metric ton of the windows hackers follow suit to attack us. We’ll end up in a situation where they’ll probably go after some random kernel bugs that nobody else.has found yet or just don’t think are critical/exploitable. Or they’ll just attack the biggest, most widely used distros, going after people using them and any derivative distro similar enough for their malicious tools to work on it.
In general though, it would be a good thing for Linux to become a lot more prominent in the desktop/laptop market for general users. Especially since I imagine thanks to Linux being open source, people would be able to stop these malicious actors from doing damage much quicker (even though I imagine the majority of normal people switching over would almost never update because they’re used to forced updates and not having to do it themselves).
Anyone have any objections or anything negative to say about snapdrop(dot)net besides maybe anyone on the same network could try to connect to you?
I’m curious too. I’m definitely gonna have to think about looking up how they compare to each other followed by how they compare to SteamOS.
I didn’t know I needed multi-coloured terminal text until I saw the 2nd image. It looks so much more readable!
I personally find Balatro, on Steam (is most likely already in the package repo for your distro), to be addicting enough for me at least. Don’t know if the demo is still up, but if it is, I’d start there to make sure you don’t have buyers remorse. Works with Proton (right click on full game or demo in library, properties, compatibility settings, force them on, and I found it works with Proton experimental if I remember correctly).
Game is simple enough to play. Get hand of 8 cards. Play poker hands. Get chips based on hand. Win and get money. Use money in shops to buy things that change your deck or buy joker cards that do different things to the hands you play. Repeat for 8 rounds of 3 blinds, each time the required score going up.
That, or Baba Is You if you want a puzzle game that will warp your mind. Works out of the box on Steam, Proton not required. Complex game where you control character(s) and/or object(s) to try and get to the win condition. The catch is you have little text words that take up tiles on the screen (can turn tile outlines on in settings if it makes it easier to see and understand, which it does for me). You can move them to change the rules of the game. You might start off controlling Baba, the rabbit(?) creature the game is probably named after, then switch to controlling all the walls in a level.
Has a built in level editor and even has bonus levels from the developer that show off things added for the level editor and scrapped levels cut in development, some with signs that give commentary.
Though, for non-Steam games, I personally like to recommend games like SuperTuxKart (don’t know a single mainstream distro that doesn’t have it in their package manager). Game starts you off, if you start the story mode that is kinda just there, with a tutorial that teaches you how to play. Simple enough racing game with a ton of community made add-ons for when you get bored of the official content. Has online multiplayer and can be played with friends through split screen so long as you have enough keyboards/controllers. Don’t know the max amount of split screen can support though.
I’ve played enough of all three games that they aren’t as addicting as I have either played too much (SuperTuxKart and Balatro) or I’ve gotten to the point where the puzzles are tedious to the point I spend a few minutes on them before giving up (Baba Is You)
Yo! I would love for something like this to become a thing because I have recently become a big fan of SVGs. Would absolutely love a custom cursor that scales to any size with minimal issues of it looking too small on the 1080 TV I sometimes plug my laptop into using HDMI.
I don’t know if it’s Plasma dependent, but I love using yakuake on my laptop for the convenience of pressing F4 and it just popping up. I know there are shortcuts for making a terminal pop up, but I really like how yakuake closes itself when you click out of it.
Couldn’t tell you about the technical side of yakuake, but I will say I just love the convenience more than anything else.
Had to look up what exactly the cube is and it looks awesome!
Why would a company like discord even attempt to take action against coordinated attacks against anything they see as a threat? That’d only be shooting them in the foot because then people would have the most minute expectation of them doing anything good.
I can’t say I can fully complain about Ubuntu when Mint came about because of it. Also because I have no other choice than to use a Ubuntu server distro for one of my classes.
The funny part about that is our instructor had us install a GUI and didn’t choose gnome because he doesn’t like it. He said it’s a pain to use, which I don’t have an opinion on either way since I’ve only ever used it for a combined total of less than a year.
It’s great for people who like vocaloid because you can listen to your favorite songs across yt, niconico, and even bilibili.
I know a few different people who have a few of their songs made using vocaloid and other related software on yt but the majority of their work is on one of the other platforms and pipepipe is so much more convenient than having both the niconico app and bilibili app installed.
I don’t have enough experience with either x11 (or whatever else is used) or Wayland to have a well thought out opinion, but Wayland seems promising to me because of waydroid.
I really like this project, but may be it’s just a my desktop problem the nitrome games I downloaded like to lag using it. It’s still really cool, though.
No because I didn’t know it existed until right now, reading your comment. I’ll be sure to check it out.
I’m only using PulseAudio because that was what came with the base installation. I’ll definitely check out PipeWire+WirePlumber to see if that works.
While looking through Alsa and PulseAudio I couldn’t even find the headset being listed as a connected audio device despite bluetooth saying they’re connected to my laptop, so I’d say that’s about up to par with my experience with trying to get audio working properly on Linux. The video at least has some good information I could possibly use in the future, though, so there’s that.
Considering pretty much all of the best distros are based on those three, probably the best you’ll get is trying BSD. I can’t think of a single distro not based on one.of the three that is still maintained.
I’m a firm believer that regardless of operating system that a warning message saying that installing something could cause harm to your device definitely makes people think twice about installation if they’re not tech savvy (AKA know more than the bare minimum anymore). It’s definitely intentional that the large companies responsible scare you away from doing the things you want because they want you locked into doing things the way they want.
