Trying to mount an iso image in the terminal and accidentally un-mounting your root drive.

Totally didn’t do that before…nope not even once, definitely not twice >.>

I dunno if the Hub software works but I do have a Seagate OneTouch portable 4TB drive and it worked without issues on Linux after reformatting like I would any other drive.

It’s kinda weird I could understand the habit a decade or two ago when computers were still mainly using harddrives and some were just…slow hunks of junk.

But the majority of my peers I know who keep their PCs on for weeks or months at a time, All run at least a Sata SSD for the boot drive.

Ladybird is slowly being worked on but I doubt we’ll see people daily driving it for a few years yet.

I wouldn’t worry too much about Mozilla when it comes to Firefox at least. As long as they keep up with the backend then forks can clean the crud off.

You would hope so but some chromium forks still try maintain their own ad blockers. And I’ve seen people just jump between what ones still work, or those few who just give up on ad-blocking all together.

Yeah I wasn’t expecting to make most of the money back, But if I can get a bit then it’s still money towards something I will use.

Selling it to try make some money back.

I built this PC before I even thought about switching to Linux.

Too many driver issues, couldn’t get Wayland working despite new drivers supposedly working with it.

Don’t worry I wasn’t planning on sticking my hands into a powered up PC anyway haha.

You just got me to remember something about a Vulkan package when I first installed Steam so gonna find the AMD package for that. Thanks!

Just note it works with ANY Winamp skin you just have to install them manually, My install I got from the AUR has the skins folder located /usr/share/audacious/Skins/

You can find most classic skins here! they are obviously very low resolution and don’t think people are making HD winamp skins these days…

Been using LibreWolf for a few months and before that just regular Firefox with the ArkenFox user.js.

Basically the exact same experience just with the peace of mind I won’t end up with some weird Ai crap after an update.

As long as they keep supporting the framework for Firefox we’ll still get working forks like LibreWolf.

Hopefully Ladybird starts picking up more in the next few years…

I used to use ArcMenu back when I ran Gnome on PopOS and I remember you could switch the layout between a lot of different menu styles.

Wasn’t just the Win7 style one.

If you don’t already know what desktop you’re going to use I’d suggest KDE Plasma. It’s pretty close to Windows out of the box, and as another comment pointed out there’s Tiled menu for it which is basically a clone of Win10s menu.

I’ve seen quite a few people rocking NixOS with Hyperland. And I thought the whole idea of Nix was to be more stable than most rolling releases?

I don’t use either so I’m far from an expert on this.

‘I’m turning into a penguin’

Good onya mate!

Luckily the laptop doesn’t use Nvidia.

Hopefully soon my own desktop won’t either >.>

You can change the core count AFTER making the VM which I agree is really annoying.

Besides that everything else has worked more reliably than others options I’ve tried.

I hate to say it but having a full desktop is becoming more and more of an enthusiast setup.

Even laptops are becoming somewhat niche as people more just use their phone for all web browsing.
