right clicking on anything takes closer to a second on our school machines… on 10th gen i7…

correct me if I’m wrong, but the performance issues in the new AMD chips were microsofts fault and they work fine on linux.

i use banana cursor because bananas are healthy

i read that mint used to have a kde option too but they discontinued that to reduce workload. didn’t know multi monitor setups were a problem for cinnamon though. does it work at all or lacks controls or something? are xfce and mate equally bad?

im a mint user too and every few months i start distrohopping but always land back in mint. all other distros always have something that doesn’t work or is just irritating. but mint feels like home.

finally some new visuals. mint cinnamon is always advertised as beautiful looking, but it’s absolutely not. i love cinnamon, but the default themes look depressing.

both support linux perfectly. apparently old CPUs get cheaper in most countries, not here though. ryzen 7 prices even went up since 9 came out.

at my last job during every break my fb-addict coworker would always get ads on facebook on her iphone that were exactly about what we were discussing a few minutes earlier. became very clear there was some eavesdropping going on.

why would one get an old intel instead of amd?

yes, every damn website. changing server to another country may help. i noticed ireland is pretty immune to this but that server is down quite often.

light mode? hello satan. also, let’s swap gnome to cinnamon. and fedora to mint.

i would like a Live For Speed distro

i don’t use brave but i tried it once when i learned that it’s open source. google was not the default search and telemetry was off by default. also i don’t think it auto updates on linux because updates are handled by system updater.

i always found gnome somehow irritating to use, like the tray area popping up all of the system controls when i just want to change the sound device. or little stuff like trying to paste a file into a folder that is too full to scroll past the bottom. i can’t r-click to the background, can’t adjust the columns to get empty space on the side. i need to use the menu. or pause fiddling with my noodle and ctrl+v…

i wish i knew about graphene when i got a pixel 6 pro. i got rid of it only after a year because it was such a buggy POS.

i don’t want anyone i work with to be able to find out what kind of porn i’m into

Linux mint cake with an article on this is that I mean you can be used as an important for this was a little more than a little or not…

does gnome not have audio output switcher in the tray audio popup menu thingy?

timeshift. then skip that update.

proton: in steam settings go to compatibility and check steam play. wine: download the installer, then depending on your desktop environment either double click it and install as you would on windows, or right click the background in the folder the example.exe is at, open terminal here, type: wine example.exe and follow the installer.
