I tried mx for 7 minutes. it installed nvidia drivers and that killed it. off to the next distro I hopped, knowing the problem could have been easy to fix. shame, it seemed interesting.

I have tried most known distros but not bazzite, yet. might be the next one on my distrohop journey since everyone recommends it. hope it works better than fedora kde, it does not get along with my hardware AT ALL
the bike paths are perfectly good for even 30 km/h in my experience, I don’t go driving in the airport because I feel like I need to go 320 km/h…(but I absolutely would if that was possible)
the distro matters, but as a general rule, start with mint cinnamon because it’s easy and super stable. different distros use different components and they are configured differently, so if you face issues and incompatibility on mint, fedora may work better for example. for me it’s the other way around. also on debian or ubuntu based distros you have the biggest selection of programs available. not sure what packages you are referring to…just applications in general? it’s as easy as just installing or uninstalling them from your package manager / software center or whatever.
ubuntu is owned by canonical, I’d say avoid that. mint is derived from ubuntu, but it has a debian edition so it’s not threatened if ubuntu gets further enshittified.
I recently used kububtu for a week, something to note: it’s running very far behind, using plasma 5.27. in my experience, kde in general seems to have lots of customization but a lot of it is just broken. all the themes you can find, most won’t install, animations are laggy (I suspect nvidia issue). downvotes incoming, but that’s just my experience. it may work for you though idk. fedora official and pop use gnome, which I have very limited experience with, but I remember it not giving too much control to the user with customization if that’s what you’re after, also what’s with the full screen app launcher? in cinnamon you will find a lot of customization and it all works. it’s also very familiar to use if you’re coming from windows.
do your monitors have different refresh rates? that was an issue, I think that got fixed in wayland. x11 will not be your friend. someone correct me on this one if I’m wrong.
I stand by what I said in 3, but go ahead and try them in usb live environment and see if you find it okay to use. btw you can install KDE plasma in mint too, you’re not married to the DE that your distro ships with.
you are probably going to need to set up a virtualbox and use photoshop in windows, I hear it doesn’t work well in wine.
nope, they are well designed and maintained. I know because I rode them for two years on my ebike. I think they use roads because they want to go faster, so they block traffic on 60 km/h zone by going 40, which is way too fast for bike lanes.
family cars? idk if you could still technically call this a supercar. I guess it’s just a luxury car. loud and expensive. and what’s funny is that a kia ev6 gt will probably beat it in a drag race 😅
I never liked these SUVs until I saw one live in London. it looked and sounded pretty nice in person
lamborghini trattori, same founder but separate companies
it’s the Italian volkswagen that used to make tractors
my people have the worst accent, look up any video of mika häkkinen talking…
it’s not impossible to learn proper pronunciation even though it seems impossible at first. I found it to be helpful to find a video of how to pronounce any word that contains the part you can’t pronounce, just keep trying to make a similar sound. it will take some trying, maybe weeks even, but then again there aren’t that many problem spots. usually r, thr, rd…just make sure nobody is around to hear it, they’ll think you’re having a stroke.
when you have a bit of a handle on it, take an episode of some english spoken tv show (something a bit adhd like modern family, brooklyn 99, IASIP), enable subtitles, then listen to their lines carefully, pause and repeat it yourself. try to sound as much as them as you can, maybe repeat a problematic sentence a few times and just move on to the next. by season 5 you will be quite good at it. read some articles aloud and use tv shows to “calibrate” 😂
ah, well that would be it then. couldn’t figure out how to get a newer kernel to install with it so I used xanmod…until it started giving issues too. the default one is good enough anyway.
mainline does not work on mint (at least on my end). it has failed to install any kernel, for like the last year.
maybe I’m weird but that’s the best accent imo
last year I had a robotics course, and on the first lecture it took me a while to realize what the hell is a rowboat
in finland we have bike lanes everywhere, still these spandex people be cycling on the roads.
I admit I also avoid the terminal as much as I can, but it is convenient when installing multiple programs for example. when something requires anything else than just adding the repo and then sudo apt install program, usually I run into some errors too and I can’t figure it out. the only thing I use it for in a new install is installing all the apps I need, and setting up smb share.
the updating thing then, in linux your programs are updated with the system update manager. you can automate it too.
one annoying thing I have to deal with is that mullvad vpn app needs a repository but it’s not supported by mint, so to update it, I have to manually download it from their website… other than mullvad, I just avoid programs that make it too difficult to install.
I fifth it. I want a framework.
show them a picture of zuckersuckers face and ask if they would trust him with your secrets
you literally just need to copy and paste the commands 🤣
if you want to scan the the qr code from your phone screen, this app can scan from an image: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.example.barcodescanner/
I believe you will get a code that you can paste as virtual barcode to your bank app?
