Here’s someone else’s research, but either way the Wayne family is known to have been extremely philanthropic throughout the comics. Sorry bud, Batman is indeed the good guy

Incompatibility problems with hardware? Nvidia isn’t great but it still works. What hardware do you have?

Have you used a virtual machine?

I would recommend Ubuntu because there is the most help for it available online. Googling questions with “Ubuntu” at the end of it will yield better results than other distributions but your mileage may vary. There are plenty of other options but Ubuntu is the most straightforward, and if you don’t like it you can try something else.

If you want to install it on your hardware you should look up “How to make linux live USB”

I don’t want to be rude but I feel like you’re overthinking the whole thing. If you want to play around with it just look up “how to make a linux virtual machine” and that will show you how to make one without losing your files.

If you want to use it as your main operating system you should make a backup of all your files first. Just throwing them on an external hard drive should be sufficient in most use cases.

Let me know if you have more specific questions, I know I didn’t answer everything in your post but feel free to let me know. I’m not a Linux power user or someone who works with it for a living but someone who made the switch 10+ years ago and has gotten by as a regular user pretty well.

You can’t even read usernames?! SMH

PopOS gaming was a shit show for me, steam wouldn’t work and installing non free drivers borked my system like it was Ubuntu 12.04. I honestly don’t have any idea what PopOS does that others don’t for gaming, steam/wine/lutris/bottles are distribution agnostic. I’ve only ever heard people say PopOS for gaming but never seen anything showing why it’s better.

Full disclosure this was a while ago and I’ve gone separate ways with Debian and derivatives for now.

I’m just back to buying Blu rays. To me it’s the safer option, you legally own your product and you can host everything you want yourself still. MakeMKV is a great tool.

Did you try making sure Sacrosanct is loaded below other mods that modify PlayerVampireQuestScript and/or DLC1PlayerVampireChangeScript and making sure there aren’t any loose copies of the scripts in your data/scripts folder? Sounds like conflicting mods

I appreciate the additional perspective, it’s tough to say if there are any good or bad guys here. The statements on IBMs role is a little self contradictory by saying they aren’t really involved but are also pressuring them with sales goals.

No matter what loss of consumer choice is depressing news, but it’s hard to disagree with RedHats right to make this decision.

Definitely not countries I want my private anything sourced out of right now lol

Oof. Okay sounds like I should read it, thanks

Okay a 2010 MacBook does make it more complicated. That’s pre retina though so it might be okay, but on a laptop Linux gets harder.

I never received a notification for this message, I apologize. You should definitely be able to use a USB yourself, https://etcher.balena.io/ is the software to make it when you choose your operating system.

I would look into a virtual machine first to try it out. It will be shockingly boring once it’s up and running and it’ll be slower than if you installed it on your hardware. Try out https://www.virtualbox.org/

You should do what’s within your budget for buying a computer, I wouldn’t recommend anyone buy something they can’t justify. It helps to know what hardware you have instead of using an all in one setup but there are other people who have used those setups and you may be able to find help more easily. It can be a toss up.

I’ll give you a more proper response in the morning, sorry I missed this! Still learning Lemmy

Gamepass on my Series X plus easier couch gaming are reasons that I’ll play some games on it over my PC. Plugging a computer into a TV isn’t great because something tends to come up that requires mouse and keyboard. There are ways around it but it’s not as seamless as just plugging in a console. A Series X is still cheaper than a comparable PC now that they’re starting to stay on shelves. It’s less free as in freedom but you’ll play 4K games unlike a $500 PC (especially if you have to budget for a monitor mouse and keyboard). Discord on Xbox also slaps right now and cross play is in a significant amount of games, so you aren’t trapped to only playing games with people who own your console.

Not a defense of the starfield physical stuff, just showing that owning a console isn’t just some dumb thing normies do. I love both my computer and my console and both serve different purposes for different games.

I think they’re targeting Twitter and other corporate social media users

What are some of the takeaways that weren’t mentioned during the announcement stream?

Thanks for the article. This will be a good to save as a PDF for future reference

I’m mostly a Linux casual who ended up working in not computers so it’s knowledge that’s useful for a month out of a year and hard to retain 😅 This article is what I wish the man page examples were

Do I need to understand lambda calculus to get the most out of this article? I made it to combinators and I’m a bit lost. Should I just read the mentioned “to mock a mockingbird”?

I haven’t been playing COTD just because the timing is weird for me but I still appreciate these posts!

Can you explain to me what happened with CentOS some 2-5 years back? I thought it was depreciated which is why Rocky Linux and Alma Linux came to fruition, but I don’t think I understand what CentOS Stream is. Thanks for all the information you’ve provided.

I’m onto fedora silverblue now since I like rpm-ostree. I’ve moved from laptop to desktop since then too, which could have colored my experience.

I would assume other DOTs, but it’s so vague you’d have to sit around and test it. Would it reduce vulnerable damage by 50%?

And being made unstoppable immediately removes you from any CC but I personally wouldn’t want to rely on an elixir. Are you playing hardcore?
