ubuntu is the most widely used distro and very simple to setup and gaming out of the box with steam is very simple. Distro end of the day doesn’t matter all that much because you can change them to your hearts content, but for a beginner, you’d probably have the easiest time with an ubuntu distro.

Doesn’t hurt to have virtual box windows on your linux box just so you can easily do some of that other stuff. While I have done fine with libre office for a long time there are definitely problems with formatting so having a windows VM would just solve that issue. Plus teams and w/e.

Epic games will take some serious tweaking, but not impossible.

That is kind of the funny thing about autos. Like most manufacturers are terrible in many ways. Environment, political, the way they treat people or how shitty their quality control is. Planned obsolescence. There is still a fake “supply demand” issue that they have literally concocted to jack prices through the roof. Literally price gouging asking 15k over MRSP because they pretend they have a supply issue lol.

All the US majors are in on this scam and it’s sad we don’t have a government worth a fuck to fight it…

Elon is just mouthy about it lol. I couldn’t even tell you who the CEO of GMC is. They are awful as well tho.

yeah like… WTF you gonna try to do this on a major social media site… how stupid is that shit… Go to IRC, fools.

I’v been using Ubuntu for nearing 20 years now. Maybe like 18ish… It took debian’s rock solidness and made it ez pz. It’s super easy to install and configure and runs like a dream. Has long term stable releases especially important for server architecture. Has the “server” install that is minimal on disk space.

Etc… Just really rock solid distro that I’ve run for decades and has cost me $0 to do so.

I ran red hat till all the cool kids told me it’s got to be Debian and then Ubuntu hit the scene and that was that. I’m sure Arch is fine and I’d bet had I chosen to stick with Red Hat and move to Fedora it’d also be fine. End of the day it’s still Linux.

I’m in a town of 3600… People are super fucking poor and still work their asses off. None of them would give a fuck if you “try that” or w/e the fuck that guy is on about… They’d go on about their business because they are just surviving. They’d sure as fuck not give a shit about any sorta of vigilante justice. They’d say “that’s definitely not my problem”

Pretty sure this dude is pandering to wannabees who probably have never actually spent any time in a small town in the US.

Just use home assistant. Open source and can connect to lots of different devices

bruh… You maybe missed the entire part where there are lots of people who think 9/11 was an inside job, false flag, whatever they think. Ever heard the phrase “jet fuel doesn’t melt steel beams”

That’s the reference here. Not that we went into a crazy surveillance state.

lol at actual shop… Those were put out of business a LONGGGGGGGGGGGG time ago…

Shops these days are home depot, walmart, best buy, academy, etc…

I love gnome Click activities, go to the screen you want, click the program you want… so simple what you are on about man.

shipping is also trucks dude… and all the other nasty ways we move products around the world…

GOP is busy listening to pod casts that’s how they get all their information. They only know how to use their phones so it makes sense that they can’t actually explore the web and open their minds.

Hence letting the religious fruitcakes take over and continue to push wild conspiracy theories and ignore science as their main party platform.

What you are seeing is literally because the people you identify with are mostly fucking idiots. You should be so proud!

and majority of news outlets will frame this as a good thing because money. Oil companies are sure cheering anyway.

Florida has passed all sorts of new laws that restrict rights and literally break the constitution. Republicans are not anywhere near a freedom party. They are the party of the drug war and police state. Party of politicians know better than doctors. The party of “science isnt real and everything is a conspiracy”

These loonies are not fit to lead in the least. Meatball Rons career is coming to an end. He’s fucked FL up so bad.

Meanwhile in TX we are hitting record heat indexes after last year hitting “record # of days above 100” and coming off another once a century drought lol

people are so dumb it’s painful to watch. This particular guy seems to be up north. His watchers better prepare because everyone’s moving that way. Entire contitnents are going to start migrating to them sooner than we realize.

hahahahah

There are still some niche subs that didn’t come to lemmy that I engage in, but I spend more time on Lemmy now than I do on reddit. I think there are probably dozens of us like that. So while I might still show “traffic” I’m not spending near as much time as I did on it and since reddit is trying to go public they wont publish that little fact.

Anyone can buy an article, so I expect to see more of these “everything is just hunky dory at reddit” articles because again they have profit motive.

Meanwhile lemmy grows and grows. Hopefully people continue to engage over here to keep it interesting.

you don’t need to do anything in xorg. just run nvidia-settings and you can move the position of the monitors. It should have installed along with the drivers. If not just install it and should be good to go very common for that to happen. You also didn’t tell us what distro. You might need to go into your distro settings and make sure the monitors are configured properly as well. On ubuntu it’ll default to 60hz and you have to change the settings in there to get the full performance from your monitor. You can also change positions of the monitor in that setting space.

yeah same… Water being one of the most important things states will try to protect. I actually sat in on a Texas water board meeting about our aquifers. Their own models didn’t even take into account climate change, but did have a worst case scenario situation where we lost about 10% of the aquifers every decade if droughts persist. So 100 years on their own government sanctioned modeling water board and still we do nothing.

OFC they were assuming business as usual in which case we are fine so by denying climate change and doing nothing they’ve literally doomed the state.

dude South TX is on fucking fire. Heat index of 120f… all time records and still I see people on linked in and wherever arguing about how it’s stupid to try and stop oil usage…

Maddening. It’s the people way up north that aren’t quite feeling it yet… GUESS WHAT WE ARE MOVING NORTH lol.

they are going to be real sad when we start migrating north and trying to pass laws to stop us lol.

bruhhhhhh… 40somethings folks is what created the booming gaming industry. We can’t stop now it’ll crumble without us!!!
