Idk dude, depends what you want to do. If you want to SSH, sure, use the terminal. RDP apps work for me. My gnome de has decent menus for pretty much everything, except sound. I’ll admit that was weird. Turns out though, you can install a gui though so not an issue. Haven’t found a thing I want to do that didn’t have a gui yet. Been using it on every pc I own for about 3 years now.

Fuck yes. I switched to Linux after Windows got all control freaky over my task bar. On Linux I can have 30 task bars if I want, 100 task bars. I can setup a mouse-task bar that opens radially around my cursor. On mac I can put that shit left, right, bottom, which is something, and i can resize it which is the bare fucking minimum.

On Windows? Bottom. Full width. Don’t like it? Fuck you. Shut up and cope.

Oh but there’s a registry hack to… nope. Not dealing with that shit again after I tried to make the fucking icons smaller AND IT BROKE THE TASK BAR.

Love that proprietary feeling, those crisp millions of dollars of development being used to innovate and develop a robust and perfected operating system.

When I was in NZ, we were told that Vigo Mortenson was arrested for carrying a sword around with him in public. He was method acting and when arrested, announced he was Lord Arragorn and only he could wield the sword. It’s illegal to have a weapon like that in public so they brought him in but I think Peter Jackson bailed him out and spoke to people.

Samsung: buy device, we collect your data Apple: buy device, we collect your data Google: buy device, we collect your data Tesla: buy a car, we collect your data Uber: pay for delivery, we collect your data Amazon: pay for subscription, buy items, sell items, we collect your data. Netflix: literally the only way to interact with us is to pay a subscription, we collect your data. YouTube: pay more than every other streaming service to get music, video and shorts with no ads, we are still collecting your data.

“If it’s free, you’re the product” has never been and will never be true. You’re the product so long as advertising exists, paying for shit doesn’t change a thing. They don’t care you bought it once because they want you to buy again and again and only from them. It’s a statement to make people think they deserve the treatment they’re getting and its gaslighting.

Many can’t upgrade to 11 and don’t want to buy a new device. They’ll believe it’s their only option unless told otherwise. It’s not necessarily a “Win11 is bad” or “Linux/BSD is better” scenario, just a “to keep using your current device which you paid for less than a decade ago, do the following”.

Times are hard and people shouldn’t be forced to buy new hardware because of the current monopolistic software companies’s latest money making scheme, especially when their old one works perfectly fine and the environment is going to suffer.

I’ve got no experience with it but at first glance it seems like a very positive direction for the project:

Collaborate, not Compete

We are proud of our community and closely interact with projects around it. If we build a platform feature that can be useful in an upstream project, we prefer to contribute it to that project, rather than keep it in the platform.

You don’t hear that often enough these days, everyone seems to be siloing information.

Counter point, set the ‘swappiness’ lower than the default 60. I’ve set mine to 30 and the system boots a lot faster. You could research and consider 10-20.

100% agree, that is a “totally for fun” exercise

For added funs run an SSH tarpit to fuck with the attackers, something like endlessh.

Getting?

Did you mean Visual Studio the second time?
