Antilopen Gang!

Ich finde die sehr sachlich Berichterstattung gut. So als wäre es total normal den ersten Schneepenis des Jahres zu zelebrieren.

Yeah, that’s also my biggest question.

Ein wirklich guter Film. Hier hatte ich tatsächlich mal vergebens auf eine Fortsetzung gehofft.

My opinion on this is, that we should take the UK back. This being said, I think the UK should not be allowed to get any opt-outs from EU legislation as they had before (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_opt-outs_from_EU_legislation). If they want to become a member of the EU again, they should go full in.

It’s a more than 4 years old blog post.

I can’t tell much about the things that the writer complains about. But concerning Cosmic: I think a new additional DE is a win. People who like it can use it, others can skip it. More variation means more choice.

Personally: I find Cosmic still a bit barebone. It is very fast. It think it looks quite good (besides their wallpapers). It’s not yet there, where it needs to be for me to use it as a daily driver, but I find it impressive what System 76 released in their first final version.

Gnome is the most beautyful DE in my opinion, but I find it’s UX absolut horrible. I hate usining it without quite some extensions and I do absolutely not use it. Look at it, yeah. But using it is not intuitive at all for me.

Luckily, there are other DE’s I like. That’s the beauty about Linux.

Do people have sexy time playlists?

Yeah, if you configure the laptop on Dells website, you can choose Ubuntu for some models.

I would love to see more Linux notebooks on third party online shops and offline stores. Not just from Dell, but also other vendors.

In my whole life, I never saw a Linux notebook in any local store. I’m living in Germany, so the situation might be different somewhere else, but I asume it’s the same in whole Europe and north America.

Dell is (or was?) already selling laptops with Ubuntu. They have experience with it. They should put it on more machines and sell them for 100$ less. If people don’t want Windows 11, offer them alternatives!

I’m a big fan of racing games. No real racing simulation, but more arcade style. When I got a Xbox Series X as my first games console after over a decade I first downloaded Forza Horizon 5, because it’s supposed to be one of the best racing games on Xbox. I was so anoyed by the whole story… I just want to race and nothing else.

I got NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered. Loved the original when I was fun and enjoyed the Remaster on Xbox.

Some games just try to add more and more and to please everyone but in the end nobody is completly happy with the result.

Can someone replace her with the Bubba horse from the other meme that is going around?

I would bet against this. I think people who buy a steam machine (and same for steam deck) will know what they get into.

And the device is focused on gaming and the games will probably run worse on that hardware if one installs Windows. Therefore I think that people who want to use Windows will not buy a steam machine.

But maybe time will proof me wrong.

I never hated my job. Sure, there were times where I wasn’t that motivated and I probably a few days, where I didn’t like to go to the office. But ai never hated it during the nearly 20 years I worked in this field. It is not ok to hate your job and most people don’t. Hate is a very strong feeling.

Yes and no. It’s still more a theoretical choice.

If you buy a new computer, you have basically the choice between MacOS and Windows. And if they do not want a Mac or are not able to afford it, the only only Windows.

Sure, you can buy computers with pre-installed Linux, but it’s hard to find.

Now, with Hardware not supporting Windows 11 anymore, more people switch to Linux, but it’s still a small amount. And many people do not know how to install linux. It’s relativ easy these days on older hardware, but if one buys a brand new computer, there are often still problems with hardware that is not yet supported out of the box in Linux.

I think, consumers should have the right of choice for an OS at the moment they buy a computer. There should be the option to have Windows, a Linux distribution or no OS installed.

lol.

Thx.

Sounds like the setup can be quite complicated. ;)

I might need to dive into that topic.

Sure, it always does.

I’m fine choosing the best fitting distro from all these points mentioned in the post you linked.

Unfortunately the post does not cover the only question I have: Is there a distro with specially good multi Keyboard layout support.

For most people - including myself - this is never an issue, because they use only one layout. But especially people from countries with non latin alphabets really need this.

He may have a limited ability to understand what she needs from her os as a dual language user, and as a non technical user she may not either in a way that’s helpful to him in trying to understand the options and setup process in front of him. A less technical user may not be able to communicate how or why something isn’t working the way they need, and he has no context or experience from which to infer.

Yes, that’s exactly it. I can technically set it it up somehow. But I have no feeling for how the layout switch should work well.

My wife on the other hand had problems to pinpoint what exactly make it feel unnatural when switching the layout. But as I figured out thx to another comment, many Korean keeboards have a dedicated key to switch the layout.

My wife is a typer on the keyboard. And it might happen that she needs to switch the layout multiple times within a minute. Therefore this is something that should work without issues.

No, thx.

You’re right! I just checked and it was a dedicated key to switch the layout. That makes it easier!

I think one thing that bothered my wife when she used my notebook was the keyboard shortcut to switch the language.
