I guess RAM is a bell curve now.

• 32GB: Enough.
• 16GB: Not enough.
• 8GB: Not enough.
• 4GB: Believe it or not, enough.

Last time I distrohopped, this was actually one of my main benchmarks. If I couldn’t install Librewolf in under a minute, I picked a different distro.

Honestly, there are probably enough people using ublock with tor browser that you can still retain most of the benefits if you do the same. You’ll just be in a smaller cohort than if you didn’t.

Voting is anonymous. He would have to tell someone how he voted for anyone to know. Unless you mean the primaries, in which case, he’d have to register for the party primary he wanted to vote in ahead of time. Having grown up in PA, I can tell you that it’s common practice to change parties depending on which party has the more consequential primary. I’ve done this myself, multiple times. Maybe he’s right wing. Maybe he’s left wing. But Lemmy propagandists aren’t going to wait to find out.

Stable, in this context, just means “point release”. If you meant “doesn’t break”, that describes most rolling release distros.

…unless you’ve used KDE in the last month. Holy cow, just let me alt-tab into a fullscreen window without throwing a fit.

Too hot, but every other time this has happened in the last several months, they’ve been able to spread dirt and gravel on top to make a temporary road.

Depending on when this picture was taken, it’s just the outermost layer that’s solid. The lava flows from underneath.

I played with Endeavor years ago, but not extensively. If memory serves, it’s pretty much just preconfigured Arch with some nice theming, a Calamares installer, and a few simple scripts. Garuda adds even more theming (too much for my tastes, actually), a few GUI utilities, notifications when your system is overdue for an update, and an update script that runs common post-update tasks (like grub-install) and takes snapper snapshots automatically, so basically user-friendly bloat.

Disclaimer: I’m incredibly ignorant. Wouldn’t wireless necessarily mean high-latency?

If you like arch but want a plug’n play distro, just do a plug’n play arch-based distro. Garuda is braindead easy.

Mabox!

I’m not entirely sure what you’re saying either, but nature vs nurture wasn’t settled in nurture’s favor. It’s somewhere in between.

Wait, are you setting up PPAs? If you’re using a user-friendly distro, either flathub should be enabled by default or the AUR is easily accessible with pamac or the chaotic-AUR. If software availability is a problem, I don’t know what to tell you; I think you started with a more difficult distribution than you intended to. PPAs suck.

Well, looks like I forgot for another month, but 3 months was no problem either.

The problem on Lemmy is that this gets combined with overgeneralized binary thinking, and all loosely “conservative” people get strawmanned as the intolerant outgroup, which, when this happens, actually does make you the guilty party.

Minecraft. It desperately needs some QoL improvements for it to be anything but tedious.

I haven’t updated my Arch install for almost 2 months. Things are going to be… seemless, probably. I do this all the time. It never breaks.

Typical Gnome user.

Untitled Goose Game got a sequel?

Needing a GPU might be hyperbole, but no, it’ll still be slow on older hardware. It looks lightweight on neofetch since, at rest, the RAM will appear as low as XFCE’s, but it’s not nearly as snappy.
