    Tech CEOs keep praising Trump

    跳过

  • Yep. 3 weeks ago I switched my main PC to Linux (which has been a hard road since I use it for work). It was the last attachment to Big Tech I had left, and I can now say I don't use anything from any company who's CEO was at the inauguration or has since bent the knee. Feels great.

  • The USA prided itself on a nation of immigrant, heck even the Statue of Liberty says it. When did immigrants (US citizens from the old world) become anti immigrant and why?

  • What's a sci-fi thing you feel is achievable with our current level of technology that you'd love to see become a thing?

  • Wow, surprised to see the old Samsung Galaxy S3 on there. Looks like I've got a project coming up

  • Interesting. I've seen Sailfish mentioned before, I'll look into it. I've got a couple old tablets to mess around with, seems like a fun project. Thanks for the info!

  • I've switched as well but didn't realize you could put Linux on an android device. Is it a specific distro and can you throw it on an old android tablet?

  • What artist have you recently started really listening to?

  • Everytime I try to start something with Linux I fail.

  • Not op but new to Linux myself. First I'm hearing of Lutris. If I understand correctly, Wine is used to install/run Windows programs in general, and Lutris does the same but with a specific focus on Windows games?

  • What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?

  • I see this as the most likely outcome as well. It's the preferred route, seen all of the place lately. Want to privatize a public service? Cripple the public service enough to "prove it doesn't work" to convince people privatization is the best option. I suspect most people would switch to Microsoft Linux over something "tech" sounding like Debian or Ubuntu. When the trial of their slowed down and crashy "Linux" comes to an end, Microsoft will offer an easy solution to switch back to Windows.

  • Would you drive an extra 20 minutes (10 miles) to get the blizzard on the right?

  • No one said it's not a food item, just that it doesn't quailify as ice cream. Similary Ireland ruled against Subway calling their "bread" bread for the same reason, it doesn't pass the standards to qualify as that specific food item.

  • Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?

  • Good to hear someone say it's a good distro. I'm totally fine learning as I go, just didn't realize how different they can be. Kinda thought it was Arch for the pros and everything else was accessible easily. I'm loving learning it, and happy to hear I picked a bit of a harder one to start, it's how I learn best. I was just frustrated.

    Unfortunately the only audio I've been able to get to work right for my use case is Alsa, I can't route anything through my mic interfaces with Pipewire or JACK.

    I'm getting the hang of it, but it doesn't help that my PC is also my media server so that was another layer to figure out. It's been a journey.

  • Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?

    跳过

  • Could be. I'm getting the hang of it but the first bit was literally "this doesn't work", found a fix, which made something else not work, etc. Drive permissions were a big hassle, I've got things going but it's been a huge learning curve.

  • Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?

    跳过

  • Yeah, now that I'm getting used to it I'm probably gonna test some others on my laptop. Ubuntu seems finicky with my hardware. I REALLY don't want to start over though, I've spent a lot of time this week setting things up and starting from scratch with another distro seems like a pain in the ass and a risk if I can't get things (audio recording) to work right.

  • Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?

    跳过

  • Yeah, I chose it because it's built for creatives. I do audio work, voice acting, music, etc and I was scared I wouldn't be able to do my work. Studio seemed safest.

  • Do you guys just have flawless experiences or what?

    跳过

  • I'm a freelance voice actor and musician. I was concerned I wouldn't be able to do what I need to do and Ubuntu Studio seemed safest as it's "designed" for this stuff.

  • Awesome thanks. I'm still trying to get the iso on a usb haha. Ventoy didn't work for me, nor Etcher or Startup. Getting the live iso now to see if that'll work.. Always something!

  • I might give that a go. I'm throwing Bazzite on it right now to test it out. I really don't want to start from scratch again with my main PC but if Bazzite does what I need I might be better off. I'm guessing since it's based on Fedora backing up my home directory probably won't work but I'll look onto it if I go that route.

  • Good thing I tested, going from 24.04 to 25.04 completely borked my laptop. Currently reinstalling 24.04 and gonna see if I can go to 24.10. Can't seem to find a way so far, only option I have is 25.04.

  • I just installed and ran update-manager and it says there's an upgrade to 25.04, no mention of 24.10. I'm assuming this should be ok?

    Edit: I'm an idiot with too much Linux on the brain. I have Studio installed on my laptop as well. I'm gonna jump straight to 25.04 on there and test. Thanks.
