  • Ok. If ever you want to try Bazzite, here's the download link: https://bazzite.gg/#image-picker

    Then choose: Desktop > Nvidia RTX Series > KDE > Traditional Desktop.

  • Have you decided on Mint yet? If not, the Bazzite distro will be easy to use. All you need to do is download the Nvidia image and install it. It will work right away. Steam and the Nvidia drivers are already installed and configured. No configuration is needed.

  • As the other commenters said, it is illegal. The most important thing is to be informed about your rights so that people and companies do not take advantage of you.

  • Yes, but the process of breaking down, as you mentioned, can be slowed down by eating healthy and exercising regularly, such as walking for at least an hour a day. For example, when my grandfather was in his 70s, he could easily climb a mountain, whereas I struggled. He had a lot of energy at that age and could walk for hours without stopping.

    Your body breaks down faster if you become inactive as a pensioner.

  • I'm talking about the fact that Cosmic will be PopOS default DE.

  • Exactly. The most important thing is to do what we can.

  • The trick is not to go too extreme too quickly. It has to be a gradual transition to using privacy-respecting products, or else you'll burn out.

    I started by switching from Windows 10 to Linux, then using ProtonMail instead of Gmail, then Lemmy instead of Reddit I'm slowly transitioning to other services and software that respect my privacy.

    Look at it as a journey.

  • Unfortunately, System76 hasn’t shared any specific details or an official timeline yet. But don’t worry—we’ll be among the first to let you know as soon as there’s news, so keep an eye out for updates.

    It's better not to have a definite timeline and to release it when it's ready. First impressions are key because this will be System76's main distro for their computers.

  • Currently, it is not possible to run the Xbox App Store on Linux. While you can run the Epic Game Store and GoG with the Heroic launcher, you cannot run the Xbox app store.

  • How sturdy is it? I currently use Ubuntu 24.04 on my MacBook 2014, and I want a laptop with the same construction quality.

  • I finished Horizon Zero dawn and I just started playing Forbidden West. I can't give you a detailed impression but so far, I like it.

  • This is good. It means that when Microsoft and Asus release their ROG Xbox Ally, Valve will be able to lower their price so that it's affordable and accessible.

  • Long story short, LLMs are only tools, nothing more.

  • Eh... The blog post left me hungry. He doesn't talk about his experience per se.

  • All it takes is momentum. It's a chicken-and-egg problem, and I think it's gaining momentum because of Valve. Gaming was always the one thing stopping people from checking out Linux.

    Now, however, more and more people are trying it out. More tech YouTubers are trying Linux, which means more exposure. Distros are becoming more refined. KDE is much better than it used to be because of Valve. All in all, there's true momentum building.

    In due time, Linux will be preinstalled on computers and laptops, and because of this, more people will contribute to Linux. People are fed up with the bloat and heavy AI push of Windows 11.

  • Keep coming back to Wayland. I've been using Linux as my main desktop OS since 2022, and at first, I encountered many issues with Wayland (KDE). However, I kept coming back and testing Wayland as the bugs were fixed. Now, Wayland is great! It feels like a true modern operating system — much better than Windows.

  • The existing guides have not yet caught up with the paradigm shift of atomic distros.

    When I say it's newbie friendly, it's because the base system is read-only (only /etc and /var are writable), and updates are only applied if all transactions are successful.

    This paradigm shift requires people to install flatpak applications and command-line applications in distrobox containers.

  • It's not Atomic so not newbie friendly like Steam OS.

  • I prefer Bazzite which is Steam OS like.

    COSMIC Desktop ALPHA: a unique & important project for Linux! (Youtube video showing COSMIC Desktop Alpha)

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Those who are using Nvidia's driver 555, what's your experience in Wayland so far? Those who are using it in conjunction with KDE 6.1, what's your experience with multi-monitor VRR in Wayland?
