Terminal is good BTW

Fully understand your current distro/tools, before distrohopping/installing new stuff, so you know what you are looking for, instead of getting new things you don’t need.

Is it possible to learn this power…

Finally. 2036 is the year of the Linux desktop

I was going give my joke answer about how I just made a bash script to mount all my hard drives to mnt/[directories 1-13], instead of just mounting it through F-Stab, but this is NOTHING compared to your examples…

If I went to macbook, tried my windows knowledge of CTL+alt+del, and it fails. I don’t blame the macbook.

I got a Bluetooth keyboard, a failed kali-mobile-install-thingy on a spade phone, and about 3 months of “eh, I will try again later”

If I get access to a 3d printer, try to make a cool clam shell design, and put in the effort, I might be able to daily drive it.

Build a cyberdeck.

Went from “ehh, its a long video. I’ll watch it tomorrow” to “holy fuck…”

I throw my handheld on the 2nd monitor, just swapping inputs between bluetooth and wireless to go back and forth when necessary.

I love how we all have access to computers and the internet, and we all have different workflows.

[Relevant XKCD] is up there as one of my favourites

Its above S tier. OP just did a bad job cropping

Its always fun to go from your smooth Linux work flow over the break, then back to windows for work.

No joke, last year. Day 1 back at work. Pop up notification about an adobe PDF subscription thing.

I remember having a Gentoo install, seeing the wiki for how to install steam, and just dual booted with Bazzite.

I’ll try again another time

Man, I member copy and pasting Brodie Robertson and LinuxCast i3 tips and tricks when I started.

Now I had the default Bazzite wallpaper for over a year now.

But it was so much fun learning all the things you can do on your system

I don’t think he is on the extreme far and of the spectrum, but there is the Linux youtuber living in his van. I think he is just doing it to travel the country and see different views every morning (but he also has a bible study second channel)

Our dislike of NFTs stopped that…

Dual GPU was meant to be the next big thing, and that went.

VR was meant to be the next big thing, and its hanging on a thread.

NFTs was meant to be the next big thing, and that’s gone.

AI was meant to be the next big thing, and I believe it will fade as well.

It works on my Arch+i3 side of my computer. As well as baldurs gate 3. Can only think of Wayland on Bazzite vs X11 on i3.

But I will reinstall balders gate again and see if that helps.

Balder’s gate works on Steam Deck? I’m on Bazzite (desktop PC) and it doesn’t work*.

Well, it launches, but can’t click on anything. Its like the game can’t recognise the mouse and keyboard. Same with Satisfactory.

Fuck it (alcohol talking now, but I’m confident I won’t regret this tomorrow)

Me: “I run Linux on my machine” Them: " Don’t run Linux. A good antivirus is all you need… Blah blah blah" Me (arguing in the shower that evening): “well, I think Microsoft is the virus. What do you think about that?”

Its been 2 years since that day. We still on speaking terms, even though we on 2 different fields of the PC Spectrum. Even though every time I walk past their cubical, I think back to that lunch time conversation, and what I could of said…
