  • I can give you some insight. Coca Cola sends different recipes to different factories depending on the water used to make Coke so that it always tastes the same wherever you buy it.

    The biggest difference between cokes around the world comes from the sugars that are used to make Coke. Different quality of sugars produce different qualities of beverages. It all depends of the sugar supplier of the factory.

  • Do you have a swapfile >8 Gb ? that might be it.

    If not, BTRFS and resume kernel parameter tend to not work well. You might want a non btrfs swapfile. You can create a separate partition or a file.

    Arch and arch based distros tend not to handle hibernation without tweaks.

  • Might be that you didn't install intel-ucode or amd-ucode.

    Did you use btrfs ? Did you encrypt with luks ? Because if so, you have to add the hooks to /etc/mkinitcpio.conf.

    If you didn't encrypt your drive or use btrfs, have you installed GRUB beforehands ? Because that screen might be from your old GRUB. If so, you need to install GRUB.

    If so, reboot to your liveISO. Mount /, mount /boot then do :

    arch-chroot

    grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

    grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=esp --bootloader-id=GRUB

    If that does not make sense or you need help figuring out, just reply to the comment. Arch is hard to install the first time. It often takes several tries to get it right. It becomes easy the second time round.

  • While it's true that Windows offers less customization than KDE, it offers way more than vanilla GNOME.

    I found a lot of customization options on W11, some that aren't even available on KDE (ex: touchpad gestures configuration)

  • It's true. On the other hand distros like Zorin or Pop!_OS don't need the command line and work "out of the box".

    The real problem being that, Linux users are nerds. And once you get use to power, you can't imagine a time where you did not have that power. That is why when a newbie asks "what linux should I use", the answers are never the right ones. It's always : you can use that to do that, or that one is better for that aspect or [...] omitting the simple fact that before all of that, to have more Linux users, the goal is NOT to scare them. Give them something easy, that works. They'll eventually figure it out.

    That's the point of the article. It's well written. It's spot-on.

  • It's sad that you hate it. It's good that you found a way to fight against change.

    I will however admit that I didn't consider Thunderbird ac an alternative for my email management prior to v.115. Now I find it finally not ressembling a Windows 98 email client and really like it.

  • Piracy could also mean "buy shit for way less". Instead of a 200$ key you can have it for 2-5$. It kinda fits.

    Plus you can have it free but it'll be a hassle or very low price and it won't be a hassle. The choice is his.

  • ELI5 :

    Think of the material as a powder. You can compress the powder and make current flows though it. It's good for wiring, etc.

    But to have an application in electronics, it would have to be like a metal, which it can't be since it's a powder
