This doesn’t look like Arch.

Debian users will eventually tell everyone, but it’ll take 2 years before they see the question.

FauxLiving@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 262d

Gentoo users would too, but their social skills are still compiling

I use arch btw

My first lemmy account was on an instance called iusearchlinux.fyi then it just disappeared suddenly and without explanation (admin probably burnt out). Anyway, it was nice to be able to tell people i use arch linux without actually having to tell them. I miss that instance

The server it ran on crashed after an update, and the wiki doesn't mention recovery of a lemmy instance.

Oh i didnt know about this. Where did you read this, id like to see if theres more info?

I tried hosting for myself and 6 months in it was hitting memory limits (prob because of friendica and sharkey on the same instance) Did not care enough about hosting my own content to deal with that.

I'm using CachyOS which is based on Arch btw.

I tried it but TF2 wouldn't launch so I switched to Ubuntu.

If a user doesn’t learn how to manage nvidia proprietary drivers on arch, they probably are in a better home at ubuntu

Assuming that this was the problem…

henfredemars@infosec.pub · 7 pts · 262d (1 reply)

I installed TF2 on a Mac with only integrated graphics in college and played a ten to twelve FPS slideshow for years.

It was Debian as well.

Venat0r@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 261d

I've been playing it on and off since launch and never got less than 60fps 😅, but generally around 120fps as I had a 3d vision monitor(that didn't work so well in source games though iirc).

didn't get as far as seeing a framerate in arch, couldn't work out why it wasn't working and gave up 😅

haven't checked my framerate in Ubuntu but felt like about 144 or something like that

mech@feddit.org · 1 pts · 261d

You should switch to Bazzite btw

If I was getting programmer socks in exchange for my personal data I wouldn't care so much about privacy.

The first rule of Linux is you talk about Linux. The second rule of Linux is do talk about Linux.

What does a crossfitting, vegan, Arch user talk about first?

nymnympseudonym@piefed.social · 5 pts · 261d

They probably have a Tshirt

Vegetarians aren't generally animal rights activists

TBF I flubbed the joke it was supposed to be "vegan"

Depends on what you consider "working", having my calculator and browser load for a minute or two before being able to do anyting and being unable to keep a specific software version as long as I need to doesn't really work for me.

BillBurBaggins@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 260d

Unironically can't tell if this is a comment about using Linux or Windows. Either way most likely a skill issue

You can only lock them for a while last tine I checked, can't you?

I've needed an old GIMP version before for a project I was working on. I wasn't using Ubuntu at the time, but would've been pretty screwed if it just updated itself after X months.

Did they fix the Snap startup time, finally?

I'm specifically talking about Snaps, I have no issues with native packages and controlling them. The problem is, since apt has become a wrapper for snap in Ubuntu, I can't even really tell what's being installed anymore.

That rage was why I switched lol. All our work computers are on 11 and they frequently reset so almost every time I log in I get to freshly rage and spend a minute resetting the task bar and default adobe to the pdf reader.

No Microsoft! I cant use edge as a pdf editor why on earth would you think that.

AND WHY CANT I MOVE THE TASKBAR

thatradomguy@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 262d

It do be like that :p

schnurrito@discuss.tchncs.de · 2 pts · 261d

somewhat oddly, in the real world, a clause like this would make the program no longer free and open source software
