Steam deck isn’t just support for linux, it’s also a fully fledged portable PC. Perfect for those who don’t want to upgrade (#2) and those who want to play desktop games without messing with a desktop setup.

‘ls’ is an abbreviation for ‘list’, not an acronym. Like copy -> cp, and the other keystroke saving abbreviations.
Ah, so now I have 7 workspaces that don’t survive reboots! Wonderful.
Bookmarks would be easier at this point.
Not when window history in only 3 windows long. That deletes 90% of my tabs instantly.
Managing that would be a nightmare too. Good luck alt-tabbing to the one you want.
This would also be nice for atomic distros, application space and system space could be separated in more cases.
Nah, 42,000$ is more natural and consistent with other units.
That compatability has been dropping recently, especially for games. Most of my CD games need extra libraries to run now, if they work at all.
I’m rocking an S8 as long as I can, but no updates in 5 years is starting to cause compatability issues. I’ll have to look into /e/OS soon I think.
All of those platforms have sources of revenue besides ads.
Nope, those “answers” didn’t help even once, so now they’re filtered out of search results, and DNS banned. Quora does not appear on my devices.
7 Days to Die probably. They recently came out of early access in basically the same state they were in a decade ago.
I found this bug report thread for KDE, and Chris posted a couple possible solution in there. Seems like a good starting point.
Reminds me of Maxis games, like Sim City 2000 and the Streets of Sim City.
Undead are just a lot more vulgar in chinese culture.
As a newcomer to CLIs, GUI are great because you don’t need to know what you’re looking for. I can just open the devices window, and they’re all there, with most of the extra hardware stuff that’s not actually a real device already cleaned out.
To do the same with a CLI would take me 10 minutes of looking up what the hardware commands are, 5 minutes figuring out flags, and 30 minutes researching entries to see if they’re important. Even just a collapsible list would make that last step so much easier. And no, I can’t grep for what I need, because I don’t know what I need, I just know something in there is important with a vague idea of what it might look like.
Once I figure that all out for one thing, the best I can do is write that to a notes file so I don’t need to search so far next time, but there’s a good chance that I’ll need a different combination of commands next time anyway.
Not hating on CLIs, just wishing I could figure out how to use them faster.
A hot stove has it’s uses as well.
If you want waydroid to see files on the host, you need to muck around with bind-mounting a directory, or just using abd to move files manually.
I think waydroid can’t see anything beyond itself normally. I had a hell of a time trying to get files on there, so if there’s an easy way to get Waydroid to see files on the host, I couldn’t find it.
I’d say a Control Panel, I miss the plethora of authoritive knowledge and settings for every program, device, driver, network, user, and a dozen more things besides, all findable by browsing and not remembering dozens of commands. Of course I’d miss that either way, because Control Panel has been gutted every new version of windows since XP, but it was once nice.
The Start menu context menu, or SUPER+X, is still nice, although mostly for avoiding poor UI choices and slow menus. The fact that many useful options are guaranteed to be there on every windows machine is nice though.
And I would also say Event Viewer, despite how incredibly clunky it is to use. Having one place to check all system logs and track crashes of all kinds was quite useful.
Basically, windows at one point went out of it’s way to centralize settings and info, and that’s just not possible in Linux without a lot of setup.
I believe they’re talking about the W11 context menu, where most common options (like copy, paste, and delete) are replaced by icons that look almost identical to each other. They’re all soft rounded lines and have no defining features, which means you need to stop and parse the icon twice for every cut & paste. They also change position based on which options are available, so you can’t memorize the locations, and since delete is one of the options, I wouldn’t trust my memory.
Most of the interesting options like edit, run as administrator, open file location, readable copy paste options, or installed options like Edit with Notepad++ or 7zip > are hidden behind a Show more Options option, which just opens the window 10 context menu. Same styling and everything.
Basically, everything about the W11 context menu slows me down and nothing about it is more usable or helpful.
There’s the bias between users willing to share that data and those not willing. All sorts of correlations could be hiding there.
I can’t find out what the rate of refusals are, but I’d guess them to be rather low, maybe 10% at most. The survey is incredibly easy to perform and very transparent about colleted data.
The important thing to realise is that the survey is very consistent, so while the baseline may have some bias, the trends are very representative.
