thanks. I was trying to find this out but I’d constantly slip up and let it shrink.

its easy, less gross than ubuntu/canonical, if mint specific instructions aren’t available for something then ubuntu or debian instructions will generally work without much adaptation if any, etc.

fuck that really sucks

nothing will ever top my smash bros melee hours. I could start now and I simply wouldn’t be able to do it even if I picked the game I already have the next most hours in. I am also entirely unlikely to add any hours to melee, but it still wouldn’t be feasible.

yeah now its brutal for anyone trying to make a living and excellent for anyone who already inherited a living and has more money than they could use in multiple lifetimes. I’d hate to go back to when it was just brutal for anyone trying to make a living.

Bazzite for my gaming pc, steam deck, and family members. It just works and they cant fuck it up. Even brother laser printers official drivers installed for my mom’s comp. Gotta check the details of that cups exploit though. My gamig pc is also the fallback pc I expect to always have working and for servicing any others if problems come up.

Arch or arch based, except manjaro which has screwed me over too many times, for having easy access to pretty much any software that can run on linux, or just stuff that requires too many hoops to jump through to get working on atomic distros like bazzite.

Dietpi on my SBCs like the ones running klipper for my 3d printers

Debian for my servers, homeassistant etc, but I’m planning on checking out coreos.

Also alpine just because.

instant pot, air fryer pot lid, deep fryer for things air fryer can’t do. Everything else has linux or is controlled from a linux server.

I mean that will do it too, but it will be sticky and stain your skin and also smell awful

ah, just like how cam out is a feature of phillips screws that improves the spinning performance of the driver

white plastics have a history of becomig yellow

I always thought that was a joke about modders adding in big bouncy titties and the game not having much else going for it…

also schlongs of skyrim mod sounds super important for living those exhibitionist fantasies

yes this needs details.

I just converted my other brother the other day. atomic distros are great when you are the family tech support guy. Made an ssh only user on all the family computers so I can remotely deal with most of their problems without having to actually touch it or remember their login details.

at least push one last update that warns the users

Oh I didn’t know about this. Is there an easy way to check if the current setup has proprietary firmware in use?

If there’s nothing wrong beyond the hideous consmetic damage sure.

Some distros have some very specific images like this one that I would install if I had the same computer:

That’s too bad. From what I can find online there are a bunch that have in kernel drivers but I can’t personally vouch for any of them. I haven’t seen any reports of linux compatible usb bt dongles above 5.0 so far but that might just be Google’s fault for making internet searching garbage.

watch the reason be epic and/or gog not wanting their stores to be thought of as ‘junk’

what kind of computer? does it have wifi already? Its not usb but the ones I always get are the intel wifi+bt units. I bought a few wifi6e + bt5.2 recently each in different form factor for my laptop, desktop, and steam deck. apart from the deck which is soldered on and I don’t have time for yet, the pcie and m.2 wifi and bt combo cards work out of the box on bazzite.

If its a laptop or desktop that has antenna on the motherboard io panel then it probably has an m.2 card that can be swapped for a bt integrated one and you could jump to wifi 6e at the same time. or wait for wifi7 and whatever bt version will exist then I guess.

I bought the parts for that, install pending time off.
