That still only solves 75% of your problems. You’ll need to buy an infinite number of books to get to 100%.

The only way to make sure Linux works like that is to have a closed hardware environment. But it has to play nicely with other hardware and services (e.g. printers, webcams, etc + office documents, etc). It has taken a very long time for MacOS to get to this point, but people put up with Mac compromises because enough things worked smoothly.
I’ve just commented about this in another thread…but I’m pretty convinced that Linux is not close to being ready for normies.

Aren’t there dedicated communities for political memes? I blocked those for a reason. Why is more and more politics bleeding over to here?
2·23 days agoI have an anti-glare LCD version. My brother has a glossy OLED version. I would recommend going for the glossy version and using an anti-glare screen protector if you feel the need. Then you’ve got the option for either.
Living is an extremely high demand product and capitalists have realised that they can charge whatever they want for it.
The Steam Deck + OLED revision are pretty recent and nowhere near the age of a normal console cycle. The OLED revision was a pretty big upgrade and <1 year old. The internet is already desperate for a Deck 2? Valve could print money by doing what phone manufacturers do with miniscule yearly upgrades and forever creeping price. People would fall over themselves to avoid FOMO for the newest console. I’m really glad Valve is doing better than that.
A lot of changes is society have come up in the last couple of generations. Changes equality, sexual freedoms, modern parenting, men’s roles at home, women’s role at work, etc. Many of my parent’s generation really do not know the first things about changing roles and expectations of the sexes and what people of the current generation want. Most people I know of that generation are (mildly to extremely) socially conservative. I get along great with my parents and I happily welcome them to live with me for 5 months of every year… But I would never have the teach anyone in my generation the lessons from their generation (I do speak to them about these things out of interest, but more to talk about how different the culture is between or generations now).
Most parents/adults don’t know how to treat the opposite sex either though.
It’s great that the devs are doing this and great that people enjoy this…but WTF did they turn this game into? When they dropped an item that turns you into a Guacamelee chicken, I felt like they were straying too far from their own game’s identity. I still play the game, but I’ve got it locked to just before the patch with “Everyone’s here”.

I just watched A Quiet Place Day One last night, and now this pops up on my feed. Is Lemmy tracking my activity?
I know it has the ability to, but I don’t recommend it. I’ve recently commented on this so I’ll paste it here:
DO NOT dual boot as a beginner. I did this when I started and would screw up something with the bootloader and be unable to boot one of the OSs (data can still be copied off, but installed app data isn’t easily recovered). Being a noob at the time, I even accidentally wiped the wrong drive during a distro hop.
For a beginner I would recommend you remove your Windows SSD and keep it safe in a drawer. Or clone the drive first. Then you can mess around all you want while keeping your original SSD safe.if the data and OS/app installs are valuable then don’t fuck around learning a new system with the drive in situ. Certainly don’t try to learn to partition and dual boot off the same drive. The noob risk is just too high.
In order to use dual boot, one must be able to set up dual boot. This guide is addressed towards people who have never used Linux.
If you’re lucky enough to have more than one device, then I’d just say use Linux on your secondary device. I used my Steam Deck as my PC for a month before I made the change.
I fully support people playing around and possibly soft-breaking their things just for the heck of it.
I love my Deck.
If you’re interested in higher performance, have a use case for a desktop, are willing to go for used parts you put together yourself; then you could get a really decent performance PC for the price of a Deck.
