Thank you Linux community!

Thank you everyone for your insight, comments, and help with the process! I'm started with Fedora, and after some brief confusion between Gnome and Plasma, I'm off! :D

Have you met people? They're the worst.

Where did the Linux socks thing come from? I see it around and am curious about the lore.

A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world · 29 pts · 1y

Lots of non-normative folk like Linux. Far as I know there was just a spree of posts showing btop and thigh highs and it went from there

The Linux socks thing was odd until you showed up, thanks bbg

It was a bold move cotton, and it paid off

Happy cake day homie, if I don't see your hairy ass legs and socks every week from now on, I'll cry

Zugyuk@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Every week? Dang, I uh... I'm flattered! I'm just not sure that I can keep up with that type of commitment. 😅

Let me know if you figure out how to get UO working on Wine. I have to use the online client.

Zugyuk@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Ultima Outlands is the way to go! Here's how to get it going: https://wiki.uooutlands.com/Install_UO_on_Linux

Nibodhika@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

Came here for the wallpaper, saved this reply for the link. I had considered running my own server a while back to be able to play again.

ikidd@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

There's a blast from the past; it has to be 30 years since I played UO.

Zugyuk@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

It's free to play with that link! Outlands is like you remember, plus end game

ree2@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y

Is this a fresh install and sitting at 10gb ram? Seems like a lot.

Zugyuk@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

I had Discord, and AnvilToolkit running, along with update on a separate terminal :D

fuckwit_mcbumcrumble@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

tehn00bi@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

My truenas server agrees.

meekah@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

2.4k packages as well, or is that normal on fedora?

Lawnman23@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

FC42 is on kernel 6.14.11 for stable, this rig is still on .0 for some reason.

Something is not right.
