  • FUCK THESE GUYS

  • What if I dont use M$ account? So it is just a local user, then where does Word back up to?

  • Writer and Impress should cover Word and Powerpoint perfectly. Even if your colleagues use Windows, you can still open them just fine.

    Excel though is troublesome, especially those with coded VBA or some plugins from companies. But for basic Excel? Calc can do the job ok too.

  • i'd recommend trying things out first. You are still in the beginning phrase, so try different distros. When you do, look for stuff like

    • forum support. Is it popular ? Ubuntu Studio may not be as popular as vanilla Ubuntu and even when theyre from the same family, you can expect minor differences.
    • i know this is not Windows. But say your OS is corrupted, how fast and easy it is for you to reinstall?

    Example: Pop OS has a dedicated partition to reinstall the OS right in the grub menu - you dont need a separate USB drive for this. On the other hand, Archlinux requires you to mount the partitions correctly (yout home, root....etc), then you can go and fix your systems.

    • do you like how the package manager work? I dont like Ubuntu because it has these different sources that can get convoluted. Arch's AUR can be very messy. Fedora for me is the way because I like DNF. Plus, its syntax is easy to remember.
  • all of the sudden these goody two shoes politicians want to control porn for "the safety of the children"

    what a bunch of tards

  • That pronounciation guide though....

    PUTIN

    POO-tihn

    POO

  • well folks, I figured it out: It is "Wire in the Blood" episode 1 "The Mermaids Sing".

    • It was episode 1 so maybe thats why it got stuck in my head
    • Main MC didnt save anyone, he got saved instead.
    • Yes the suspect likes to cross dress.

    Robson Green played this series really well. He is more of a detective / psychologist.

    Series is so old you cant find any pictures of scenes via Google. Searching for terms like "Wire in the Blood trans torture scene" will just give you the generic "Wire in the Blood" cover.

  • Television @piefed.social

    Looking for name of an old tv series with a very messed up episode. Detective/killers style.

  • the title from Newsweek is so poorly written

  • most of my technical questions about Linux are not even answered lol. So difficult to get good answers on reddit.

  • Wake me up when S̶e̶p̶t̶e̶m̶b̶e̶r̶ your charade ends

  • If you just want to play the game, then gaming works surprisingly well on Linux. Very well.

    I have the same game on Steam running on 2 separate computers, Fedora and Win 11. On the Fedora one, everything is just rock solid. Heck, even when I am rendering some very intensive 3D stuff on another workspace for work and use 50% of the RAM, the game is still running. On the Win 11 laptop, random issues happen where my cursor dissapears and the entire desktop freezes.

    OTOH, if you need the gaming accessories to work properly then I'm not sure, could be a 50/50. For eg, if your laptop has some proprietary sound card, then Linux might not be able to take advantage of that. On Windows, these should work OOTB.

  • Keep bending down and kiss the ring, Tim. You're not low enough, keep going...

  • man the prices below are disgusting and this is just the home internet. I used to pay $40 - $50 / month with BrightHouse. If we want higher speed, my roomates would chip in and the total price is at max $90/month. After they turn to greedy Spectrum, the price jumped to $80/ month for slow speed. It was so expensive so we didnt go with higher speed....

    I thought that was expensive so I decided to ditch broadband and only use my phone. This was when carriers still had truly unlimited data. Well, things worked for a while until they decided to kill that too with BS feature, i.e. you're still unlimited but we'll slow you down if you hit the limit. I paid no minds to this at first, but then the 2G was so slow that you couldnt do anything.

  • Pay higher so we can be tracked like in FL, where you have to show ID to watch porn?

    What a fucking joke

    BTW, whats the typical price for internet access these days in the US? Havent been there since 2024.

  • Pop OS tiling is awesome. What I always try to do on tiling WM: set workspaces and spawn specific applications on specific workspaces. Not sure if Pop OS can do it, but on i3/dwm/sway...etc. you can freely spawn your applications wherever you like.

    Try to play around with those DIY tiling environment. You will have a lot of fun if you like tinkering with stuff. Maybe one day you will run EXWM

  • plan to buy a pixel just to put Graphene on. Which one do you have and any problems?

  • FFS

  • so the AI stuff causes too much CO2, instead of fixing their own hardware, the best they could do is to offset that CO2 amount by burying shit?
