  • What Linux distro without opt-out telemetry would you recommend a Manjaro user?

    Jump

  • You probably shouldn't be using an arch based distro if you want a user friendly experience.

    I know there are things like manjaro and even endeavor os that are "arch but easy" but honestly I cannot in good faith recommend anything arch based for ease of use. Arch is a very fast moving distribution that usually has the newest packages but that isn't always good. There will eventually be a problem come up, maybe not often and maybe not that serious but in my personal opinion it's not worth it.

    If you are wanting consistent ease of use and access to a lot of packages it's hard to beat the mainstream distros. Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora, (personal favorite) etc... and if you need something from arch repositories just use distrobox. You get access to all arch packages without the headache.

    2FA Apps for Linux Desktop?

    Jump

  • I've been using Authenticator and haven't really had any issues.

    I imported my Aegis codes and they worked no problem

  • Overmorrow: a weather app for Android with unique UI

    Jump

  • It's very pretty and I could see myself using it but I will stick with breezy weather for now.

    I just think this has too much going on and the information is spread out too much. This is all personal preference but I feel that I get a lot more information from breezy quicker.

    Cool project tho. Really like the radar

  • Hinkle is surprised that Trump isn't anti-War.

    Jump

  • I really haven't been caught up with Hinkle's rise to fame but how is it that he has a following? He's clearly a moron.

    Is this just controlled opposition or am I seriously overestimating the intelligence of the average person?

    WTF is happening on Hexbear?

    Jump

  • I really enjoy hexbear but I pretty much only engage with it through the lens of shitposting.

    I'll probably just ignore hex for a bit til they get it all sorted over there.

    Probably still check out games tho

    #173 Text Annotations · This Week in GNOME

    Jump

  • Thank you for posting this week in gnome here

  • New to linux, would like some help setting up dual boot.

    Jump

  • I wouldn't recommend duel booting on one drive.

    I've done it before and hated it. As many pointed out windows will just destroy that partition because it wants to.

    I'd honestly just stick with windows if you are going to need it.

    If you don't need it I'd just wipe the drive and install mint.

    Duel booting can work well but usually only on separate drives

  • Ah cool. This will probably be better for newcomers since they won't have to search for a tiny little "spins" at the bottom of the page.

    Kde is probably a lot more familiar to windows users and I know I usually recommend it to people moving over even if I do prefer gnome.

  • Assassin's Creed Shadows will reboot Assassin's Creed's patchy modern-day story

    Jump

  • I haven't played an Assassin's Creed game in years and I have no intentions to play the new one. But even I know the worst part of those games is the stupid damn story set in modern times that makes no sense.

    WHY AREN'T THEY JUST GAMES SET IN THE PAST. WHY IS IT SIMULATION JUNK. WHAT

  • KDE's New Distro: Btrfs-Based, Immutable Linux OS, with Flatpak and Snap

    Jump

  • I think gnome is working on the same sort of thing, read here.

    I'm glad to see both going for an immutable os with flatpaks. It's so much more user friendly for the average person and if you are more technically inclined distrobox makes it a breeze to use it like a regular linux desktop.

    I hope both do well

  • EndeavourOS keeps freezing

    Jump

  • I recommend booting into a live usb and seeing if everything is frozen.

    If it does it even on the live usb it may be a hardware issue.

    And if it's hardware a lot of things can explain random freezing. I had similar freezing issues and it turned out to be a dying psu

  • Linus Torvalds Comments On The Russian Linux Maintainers Being Delisted - Phoronix

    Jump

  • They could have handled announcing this so much better.

    Linus fumbled this hard.

  • Linus Torvalds Comments On The Russian Linux Maintainers Being Delisted - Phoronix

    Jump

  • I think this is a shortsighted and extremely ill-informed decision.

    The "compliance requirments" have still not been explained at all.

    Why aren't Americans and israelis being removed from the maintainer list for their active part in a genocide?

    But that is my opinion and is all I will say

  • ["Listeria, Imma let you finish..." news] E. coli outbreak linked to McDonald’s quarter pounders has killed one person and hospitalized 10, with 49 cases identified so far.

    Jump

  • Goddamnit. I ate one of those like a week ago

  • What are the chances PSL beats out Jill Stine in any single state?

    Jump

  • Very unlikely if I had to guess.

    I would be shocked if the green party even gets over 1% but who knows.

    I mean the libertarian party usually barely gets any votes and it is the most popular third party by far. It got a little over 1% in 2020

    But I do think the green party in combination with the psl and other left leaning parties will result in a loss for Kamala which will be awesome.

    But I am also talking out of my ass so who knows

  • What game of the 2020s do you think that will top the "best games of the decade" lists in 2030?

    Jump

  • Disco Elysium. I mean it came out in 2019. But it still counts

  • Pivot of Empire and the free Update 1.8 for Vicky 3 drop on November 21st

    Jump

  • I'm liking how victoria 3 is shaping up. I just wish the countries would do things that made sense sometimes.

    Playing as america I had a civil war and Britain joined the confederacy against me.

    It's so laughably stupid.

    I still like the game tho
