i love the raspberry pi imager for that reason. i don’t want no balena etcher stealing my data, but a gui is very convenient for flashing isos, so raspi imager it is! (works for any iso you want)

manjaro really does some things right. it’s the best grub boot menu i’ve ever seen, with perfect dual/triple booting detection and such, but it kept breaking all the time and was a pain to fix. switched to fedora and never looked back. i got debian on machines where i don’t want to fiddle with the is often. then fedora on what i use a lot and need to be flexible. bazzite on machines where its supposed to just work and manage the nvidia optimus pain, which it does really well. also i’d opt for mint for people starting out, or not as tech savvy people. different distros for different use cases, but manjaro has proven to be too much work (on my workstation and those of multiple friends). (also i’m looking into nixos)

im using fedora and its nice, but i installed bazzite on a mates laptop recently, and when it comes to nvidia, and especially hybrid graphics (laptops with nvidia gpus), it’s so much easier to use bazzite with their preconfigured nvidia stuff than anything else. so, bazzite is really nice to use and based on fedora, but for my main machine i’ll probably stick to fedora for now.

regarding the legality of breaking the sound barrier:

if i remember correctly there’s is an indirect general speedlimit, because any vehicle moving below a certain height is not allowed to go beyond 400 something kph. now this is intended for planes and helicopters and such, but afaik also applies to cars. therefore breaking the sound barrier, sadly, would be illegal. besides, i think breaking the sound barrier is limited to certain zones anyways.

i’m not trying to nitpick on the joke, but rather give supplementary information that may be interesting.

hi, since the video has been removed, can anyone point me to the git with the software/ docs?

i also used manjaro, and whilst they had a pretty looking theme on grub, it broke on me three times, where i managed to repair it the first two and then just installed fedora the third time. never looked back. when i installed manjaro i ran an update after boot and immediately lost a bunch of manjaro theming in my DE… wth?

im using arch win11 btw is the flex of the future

if you check the shortcuts section of the settings there should be one option that is maximise and one that is fullscreen. it’s one of those two. i tend to have what you’re looking at on ctrl-meta-f and the true fullscreen you’re trying to achieve on meta-f though i think i set them to those shortcuts 😅

yes and my copy has the text in red and green ink depending on whether it’s describing reality of the fantasy world. it’s an awesome book!

im trying to play the settlers iv gold edition and it’s insanely hard despite it being an offline game. i may try running it on a pc with win7 or xp, but id prefer having it in lutris (same for settlers heritage of kings)

with how the german community is radically translating everything english directly into german, i too tend to need some time figuring out what the heck they mean. lemmy is translated as „let me“ but in one word, same for meme being translated as „me me“. so, oftentimes, i need to translate half the words of a sentence directly into english without taking context into consideration, then try to put them together and reread, if that makes any sense…

Smile, you are being protected.

i think this is a good summary

i also hate the idea of giving up apple pay when testing graphene. i really hope to find a somewhat ok alternative, but from what i’ve heard it seems to be the best there is atm :(

yeah honestly i really think that you should swap to linux!

i second this

endOS is like manjaro based on Arch. they feel closely related, hence the recommendation. i probably wouldn’t install it because i don’t want to deal with Arch’s quick update cycle, but that’s just my personal preference and no statement about the quality of arch and its derivatives.

ive had and heard of many bad experiences with manjaro, though they do a couple of cool things. i really wish you all the best on your manjaro endeavours, but would recommend (not from experience but rather what i have gathered) to use endeavourOS over manjaro. also that would fit your name nicely

god at first i saw only the first line cuz the second was cut off. the relief i felt upon scrolling XD

i‘m glad you learned about how to switch tty! now this is a very rare situation, but if you log into your computer, then switch to some tty, log in there too, do things, lock it, and leave the computer, the other tty is still unlocked because you need to lock both the tty you logged into.
i know this is a super rare/ hypothetical situation, but i think you should know.
