I never knew that. Thanks for the information! I will make an account on lemm.ee

I don’t know anything about exploding heads and burggit but I assume they are right-leaning/alt-right. Like lemmygrad but the "opposite?) I am against defederation in general. I like to be exposed to different opinions and I am fully capable to use my brain to not become an extremist.

That said, I don’t agree with either the extremist left or right.

The fuck? Who are you to say who should be on lemmy.ml? Just because I don’t agree with some of the people that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be here.

Get the fuck out of here with that segregation bullshit. I don’t want an instance that defederate from everything I don’t agree with.

I am using qemu with virt-manager gui and it works well

When it comes to Arch the wiki is your friend. It will tell you if additional configuration is required to get your packages working and what other dependencies can be installed. If something isn’t working properly then the wiki probably knows why.

Arch comes with no drivers and additional packages by default. You need to install them manually. But you don’t need to install every package for your system manually. If you need glibc it will most certainly get pulled down as a dependency.

You don’t need to know every part of the system to use arch but you need to be interested enough to learn how your system works if something is not working or you want to configure your system in a certain way.

For starters I would recommend going with something Arch-based like Garuda or EndeavorOS if you want to learn Arch. I started off with my Steam Deck and later Garuda on my desktop. Once I was comfortable enough around Arch I decided to install vanilla Arch (manually, the wiki way) in a VM. When installing my system I wrote down every command I used and from that it snowballed in to my own install script for arch. That taught me a lot.

Arch is a make it yourself distro. It comes barebones and you install what you need (which in my opinion gives better knowledge about your system). And the packages are up-to-date which is good if you are gaming.

If you don’t like to tinker then Arch may not be for you. Something arch-based could be a better fit. Like Garuda or EndeavourOS.

It works on Nvidia without hardware acceleration

Edit: at least on Arch

I prefer to play it on mobile (pirated it to try it out) but I bought it on Steam. As much as I like the mobile version I really don’t want to kill my battery.

Some of us are actually normal

What’s wrong with just plain Arch? It works well enough for my desktop and for Valve to build SteamOS. When gaming having the latest packages are a huge advantage.

Unfortunately I can not watch the video right now

Edit: So he just made an atomic openSUSE distro for handhelds. I like that it has BTRFS snapshots, I use it on my desktop as well. Nice for people that prefer openSUSE I guess but I will stick to Arch.

Tears of the Kingdom. I am a huge Zelda fan and I also loved Breath of the Wild

Wow… That’s quite a reach… I don’t understand why you would think that is what I am implying. I am just saying that there needs to be a way to deal with abusive content. Every platform has it, even 4chan and 8chan and other degenerate places on the internet.

I’m all about free speech and the right to privacy but that does not equal free reign to post whatever the fuck you want without consequences. I am not saying we need to persecute or track people but there has to be a way to remove stuff that is inappropriate or illegal.

Do you really want a social media platform where someone could spam CSAM and it would stay on there forever?

How are you planning to deal with the removal illegal content?

I like the idea of a decentralized web but when I tried ZeroNet I saw some despicable stuff on there.

If you do nothing about such content then your platform lost likely will end up as a pedofile haven.

A global episode of heat-related coral bleaching has grown to the largest on record, US authorities said Friday, sparking worry for the health of key marine ecosystems.

Oh, so now they are worried? Scientist and hippies have been warning about this for as long as I can remember and it will only get worse the longer we wait.

I truly hope they take it seriously this time but I am not going to hold my breath over it.

My stepmoms aunt had a super slow laptop with Windows that I took and installed Linux Mint on and she is super happy with it. It’s like a brand new computer for her!

She only uses her computer to pay bills and check Facebook and she haven’t called me once to complain. She only tells me that it’s working great.

I plan to install Linux Mint for my mom too in the future. I don’t think my dad would be able to handle it tho. He barley know his way around the computer but he knows enough to do his work and I don’t want to mess up his workflow.

If your distro is packaging older versions then you shouldn’t be surprised that things break. Tumbleweed is a rolling release distro

This is not my experience on an Arch system. KDE has never crashed on me

I am not sure if it required a blob or not but I use an ASUS USB-BT500 on my Arch system and I only installed the bluez package for it to work (and bluedevil for the GUI on KDE).

Staying on an old and unsecure OS sure is a solution, but it’s incredibly fucking stupid.

At least you could install Linux and use an old Windows version inside a VM instead of running a vulnerable system on bare metal. That way you can still use Windows when you need to.

Linux works fine on older machines and can give them new life.

I recently had to use a smart phone that is over 10 years old (Samsung Galaxy S5 mini) and believe it or not, YouTube and Facebook Messenger still worked. It was slow a hell but it still worked fine.
