Programmer by day, burnt out by night.
Fijn article, thanks for sharing!
Still, I don’t get why’d you do that, all my windows installation automatically put boot files onto C: and did not allow me to touch them afterwards.
G: also seems completely arbitrary, and I’m the majority of windowa setups wouldn’t exist or be an external drive.
Simple as.
The boot files go into C:, not G:.
Windows can’t operate if you did that, it doesn’t let you.
Tiny vocab tip: “Non-immutable” is actually just called “mutable”.
I agree it’s a bit weird for them to ask us to choose between email and matrix. They’d be better off deciding for themselves, best strangers on the internet can do is list pros/cons for them.
They already stated they’d use nheko.
I understand they’re asking us to choose between email and matrix for them.
I don’t think anybody does that, honestly.
Aw thanks!
Almost, the default boot drive is C:, everything gets mapped after that. So if you have a second HDD at D: and a disk reader at E:, any USBs you plug in would go to F:.
This reminds me of that fortune Cinnamon desklet
…I should use that again.
How about flat, easy to recognise icons and straight, square windows and app designs?
Brutalism for your DE!
No reason they wouldn’t work on a small phone, especially back then
I miss the Vista tingle and shine, and the sounds it had
It seems Nintendo’s consoles (Wii, DS, 3DS) were also more colourful and packed with music and sound then.
The Switch is so quiet. So… Dead?
God, no!
Though these do look pretty, they don’t look like the buttons in Windows 95/XP and maybe that’s a good thing.
And that setting up, and updating it, takes much technical knowledge, a lot of time, and the packages and their updates come from whoever on the internet much like the AUR.
For stability, I would not recommend NixOS, at all.
I can vouch for Linux Mint / LMDE; their pre-installed software and defaults seem very sensible and I need far less set-up, fixing and fiddling (esp. with NVidea hardware; the open-source driver refused to make anything run on GPU with my Asus ROG Strix GTX 970) then on bare-bones Debian or Ubuntu LTS.
All four mentioned here have very stable and safe release schedules.
Bazzite’s defaults help a lot with gaming (and that stupid NVidea driver) and the initial welcome-screen helps you install the Steam, Lutris, OBS, etc. you want and leave out anything you don’t. It’s actually helpful, really!
I do want to add Bazzite’s team seems to have only one person who can sign releases, and they did misplace a key at least once leading to nobody receiving updates until they replaced the key in their installation.
Their team management does not seem the best; assuming this was a one-off thing Bazzite can still be a great, stable choice.
stable release
NixOS
Yeah, nah. Let them have Debian/LMDE, or (Atomic) Fedora, instead.
It doesn’t, and offers an even friendlier experience than Manjaro IMO
Privacy != Security
At least MiHoyo’s anti cheat detects and blocks VirtualBox VMs as well as Waydroid.
KDE’s menus upon menus upon menus makes it look and work like W95 for me, just made of shiny plastic instead of something beige.
Also, I feel XFCE’s default looked awful about ten years ago, it looks modern and slick now, esp. with a theme like Arc installed! And it’s incredibly customisable and riceable!
