Pew pew!!!

OMG if you like that you’ll probably also love Burn My Windows (https://github.com/Schneegans/Burn-My-Windows)

Those effects are ported to Plasma too! You can get 'em through the KDE Store / get new stuff system. :D

(Sad forgotten Endeavour OS noises.)

I hear a lot of love for Fedora.

Even though I happily run OpenSUSE Tumbleweed myself, I have run into the occasional “What the ever-loving heck” issue that I’ve had to stubbornly troubleshoot, and I worry that’d make some people run away crying.

I have a family member with a really old laptop enjoying Mint, but my wife’s and my best buddy’s gaming PCs might be worth giving Fedora a shot on.

Like me, they need those updated Nvidia drivers and Wayland, and honestly most importantly for familiarity + cool-new-thing factor: KDE plasma 6! ;)

It was Oblivion they re-released recently. :)

TIL you can run Longest Journey with SCUMMVM! That’s so cool. I remember the retail release on disc being quite fickle to run properly.

If a search engine can’t crawl it so you could search up posts, like a good ol’ forum, than yep!

Same with any member pages past a login. (Hence why nobody can just ‘google’ your bank account balance lol.)

DemenTIA, from CompTIA. Some of those exam questions really make you wonder. . .

…and I will NOT stand for it!. . . Won’t stand for much, lately. It hurts.

Can’t believe people don’t link sources anymore. Anyway yeah it just happened today.

SO important. They’re always under some kind of attack, and they’re pretty much the most accessible way we have to access a web that keeps disappearing and getting replaced.

… Then you get to file system and the analysis paralysis REALLY sets in.

Here. Let me help: BTRFS with Timeshift or Snapper snapshots. Enjoy. ❤️

I love Debian, I love Void, Ubuntu can die in a fire, etc.

“You’re cool, you’re cool, screw you tho , you’re cool…” XD

Have I been on 10 years? I dunno, but I like to think I’m pretty experienced for an amateur.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed! It rolls! It games! It works with newer hardware and gets along sorta reasonably with Nvidia!

Best part? If any of that ISN’T true (rarely after an update), it seamlessly integrates BTRFS snapshots with the boot menu, to just roll back and wait like a week til the wonderful souls working on it, fix stuff.

The community is also very supportive.

This has such a “Barbenheimer” composition lol.

For that reason VGAs could make really good grappling hooks. 😂

I imagine people trying to run aged applications through WINE?

Two was supposed to protect one. :(

Sorry I didn’t articulate myself well here at all.

What I meant was, I’ve heard this particular contributor’s history is slim to none, and suddenly he shows up and PR’s this age form into the kernel.

That’s what’s weird.

You’re exactly right, most of us probably haven’t looked at kernel PRs. Such a major component in such a major project isn’t really a “My first contribution” territory, right?

So it should raise some eyebrows when this guy just pops up and PRs it and it gets merged so quick.

I’m not the most brilliant at this stuff so I’m happily open to being educated here if I’m way off, though.

Yeah, I fear you’re right. Evidence doesn’t point to benevolence here.
