Start to get comfortable with the uncomfortable by ordering something you never had in a restaurant you've never been to. Or invite people you don't know well. Or start a conversation with a stranger.

Or do anything else that isn't comfortable by your standards.

Welcome outside your comfort zone.

The best linux distro for gaming and graphic design? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

The answer is always OpenSuse.

Kidding. Stick with what you know works.

But seriously: OpenSuse.

Just joking.

Not.

Why don't the whole planet just use UTC+00:00 / Universal Time without time zones? in c/[email protected]

Why calculate?

While 1200 might be noon for one, another might just get used to 0800 to be noon. Who says 0000 must be midnight and 1200 noon?

I am doing that for friends and family. For now Windows is the default in Grub. Most are trying out Linux and like it.

[breathing through mask]

I find your lack of faith disturbing. You can install Windows 11 anyways.

Be careful not to choke on your aspirations.

How to (actually) choose a Linux distro in c/[email protected]

Zypper could use some love, though it isn't bad by any means. But Flatpak does make a huge difference for sure.

This is my backpack, has served me well over the past few years for everything from trail crew to regular grocery running. in c/[email protected]

Story-Driven Games (lemm.ee)
 

Hey everyone! I'm on the hunt for some incredible story-driven gamesβ€”ones that pull us into their world with gripping narratives, deep characters, and immersive gameplay. Some examples of what I'm looking for include the Homeworld series, the Horizon series, The Last of Us, some Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider games, etc. So I'm not too picky about the genre.

If you've played any unforgettable games with amazing storytelling, do tell! What games had you hooked from start to finish?

Difference to Airoponics (lemm.ee)
 

Hello. I am new to this community. I have been reading much about Airoponics and would like to get started. Can't find a specific community, though. Can I generally use the advice here for an Auroponics setup as well?

Thank you for your thoughts.

Which areas of Linux would benefit most from further standardization? (lemm.ee)
 

The diversity of Linux distributions is one of its strengths, but it can also be challenging for app and game development. Where do we need more standards? For example, package management, graphics APIs, or other aspects of the ecosystem? Would such increased standards encourage broader adoption of the Linux ecosystem by developers?

GNOME 47 Update: Extensions Disabled and Missing from Manager (lemm.ee)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hello all,

after updating to Gnome 47.4 on openSUSE Tumbleweed, all my extensions are disabled and missing from the Extension Manager, even though they're still available in ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions?

Edit: I can install extensions, even existing ones, and they show up again with all their previous settings. Until I logout. After a fresh login I get a vanilla Gnome experience again. The permissions of the extensions folder are fine (755). I'm stumped.

Alternatives to VirtualBox? (lemm.ee)
 

VirtualBox is ridiculously simple to set up and get virtual machines going. Shared folders, shared clipboard and much more are no issue.

But.

It eats resources. The installed virtual machines (VM) run relatively slow. What have you found to be feature comparable - and most importantly more resource-efficient - alternatives for running VMs under Linux?

Which games would you recommend that require teamwork? (lemm.ee)

Games which do not end friendships, but strengthen them. Games where working together works and loners fall behind.

Can be something simple like The Game or reach any complexity level. Coming to think of it, bring on the complexity. πŸ™‚

What is your experience with AOSP? (developer.sony.com)
 

I'm considering flashing my Xperia with this, since Sony officially supports it and my stock ROM stopped getting updates.

Any thoughts? Is there something I should consider before doing this? Do you have a better alternative? If so, why?
