X380 Yoga with Mint works like a charm

I think most people just don’t use pepe.

That frog is associated with 4chan more than any of the sites pictured.

There are some mice and keyboards with proprietary software that only works in windows.

But unless you have a special input device because of a disability, not using an os because of a mouse/keyboard feels like a joke

It’s not like Riot Games is fully owned by Tencent or anything…

But if you still want to play the game, having a computer that you only use for league, with nothing else installed, is the best way to go about it

Using two asterisks makes things italic. You can only use one

Steam can’t tell if something is a “game” or not, so you do it the same way as playing a non-steam game through the launcher

Mint doesn’t ask for you to pay

There are some that were wrong to begin with, I remember 622 bothering me.

But it could also just be that in the comic, the professor is wrong.

It’s only a general rule. In my experience, Nvidia has kinda been all over the place on how Linux-friendly they are. Do a couple searches on the exact card you have, you might be lucky.

I hope you have fun with finding what works best for you and your hardware!

I think LFS means you also need to build the stove.

MintLinux and Pop!OS are normally the two front-runners for new users. Basically, if you use Steam and you don’t play online-only games with bad implementations of anti-cheat software, you are good to game on either.

Make a USB that you can “live boot” from, so you can test out how they work with your hardware before you actually install the OS. Generally speaking, Mint works better with AMD, and Pop! works better with Nvidia.

Here’s the official basic guide for Mint:

Arch is like making your own cookies, starting from growing the wheat.

Mint and Pop! are like buying Oreos.

I’m done threshing in my life, never again.

The configure script is responsible for getting ready to build the software on your specific system. It makes sure all of the dependencies for the rest of the build and install process are available, and finds out whatever it needs to know to use those dependencies.

If you or don’t program, or you install programs through a Software Manager or use Flatpacks, this isn’t really a part of your life.

Yep, once you get your edge-cases sorted (like needing to run SketchUp 2016), Linux is set it and forget it for distros worth using.

Honestly, I don’t think I’ve used terminal in a year.

I’m a Captain, BTW.

It depends on what the goals of the project/group are.

Roughly 100-(1/∞)% of the time I don’t want anything involving video or sound, but I could see some projects/groups where things like streaming or audio would be useful.

I don’t have an issue with discord itself, it just seems to be being used as the default for nearly everything now, even when it shouldn’t be.

From my experience with discord, more than one conversation is often happening at the same time in the same channel. For servers that are active enough, this can be as fast-paced as the chats in live streams.
Trying to parse if the answer that “OrthoDonkulous” gave is for the question that “Headshots247” asked, that “ProgrammerSox” asked, or that “BelieveUsFoetusJesus” asked is sometimes difficult.
