  • I always wondered what happened to all the neat reports of cars that ran on old oil or could get 50mpg in the 50s. Guess they were too disruptive. We can't have nice things. 😮‍💨

  • That's fair.

  • There can be more than one thing that makes him a terrible person. I would just think this could feel to him like the thing that would make even the most die-hard tRump supporter drop support in him.

  • I can't fathom what you are going through. I hope you continue to see the light through any dark tunnels you may find yourself in. Take care of yourself. I'm glad you're finding stuff that works for you! Much love from a stranger on the internet.

  • This image is older than Spez.

  • I plan on making a post of my own personal experiences in the coming weeks. However, I will issue caution to others who may believe themselves to be higher on the tech savvy ladder: forget most of what you do with Windows and accept that Linux, no matter the distro or DE, is not going to be 100% like your previous Windows experiences. Tech peeps typically have a high level of OS/system customization. These don't usually translate well to a non-Windows OS. On other "managed" operating systems, you might try things, but not be able to really do damage. If you try to force it with Linux, you will fuck yourself.

    I'm really concerned about my MiL and wife as they both have machines with NVidia cards. My wife and her mother play Sims 3, as well. Her mom's game, specifically, is extremely mod-heavy and she is religious about updating her mods when patches drop (she's retired so has a shit ton of time to do that monthly, I guess). I've talked to her about getting off Windows, but I'm nervous to get her on any version of Linux because 1) I don't play Sims 3 nor do mods for it, 2) I'm a tech-baby with Linux troubleshooting, unlike Windows, and 3) I'm just a registry editor 💔, so I'm concerned I won't be able to support her potential sticking points with it and Sims 3 and it'll further entrench her against Windows and change, in general.

    Good luck on your journey, regardless. The people in this community are pretty great (including the Arch and Vi users, I guess)! Totally wasn't held at gun point while saying that last bit. Nope, not at all!

  • In other news, I actually ended up on openSUSE Leap 16.0 after it released. Originally, I upgraded from Leap 15.6 to 16.0, but I opted to do it fresh, take my time, log all my changes, and ended up with KDE Plasma 6 for my DE. Of all the DE's, KDE has the most features I want, with the fewer annoyances I don't.

  • SPOILERS!!

  • I sent the message with the link to redeem. Let me know if you ran into any snags with the redemption process!

  • Fresh out friend, but the week trial is new so anyone with Nebula should have codes if they haven't already given them out, themselves!

  • You got the last of the three once I'm back from lunch.

  • You got a code URL coming when I return from my lunch!

  • When I get back from lunch I'll send the code URL.

  • I have three guest passes I could send out if anyone would like to try out Nebula for a week. I'll send you the redemption code via private message. Just reply to this thread or send me a message on Lemmy!

  • What I get from simulation video games is that if I didn't have to worry about working to live and the daily grind of life, I'd work to get real-world experience doing stuff I may like.

  • Unironically, this is what my son called it when he first learned to talk and sampled one. Now this is the only way we say it. It's similar to how South Park ruined (or improved) the way I say planetarium!

    Edit: wtf 8 pieces? That's awesome!

  • Another reason to call me handsome!

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    After decades on Windows, so long and thanks for all the phish
