Bingo. The problem here is old, not white or men. Only white, or only men is a separate problem, which is maybe what they meant.

Thank you! I'm a new user to linux. Went through 4 distros this month until this one, that doesn't seem janky and runs my games at a decent FPS. Having to reconfigure my monitors each reboot was a dealbreaker for me. Your simple instructions worked flawlessly, and i've had 3 reboots without having to change my settings.

I'm not sure if linux is my new forever home yet, but this definitely helps!

I get it, however when I'm paying $1000+ for a GPU, I want the best for my money now. Not take part in some bigger than me ploy to even out companies.

Government regulations > a few people buying a worse GPU

It's a service that allows tv/movie streaming from torrents. I use it with the 'Seren' addon within Kodi on my HTPC/FireSticks. It's $20/6 months, and works great. No buffering.

I spend more time here than reddit. I never 'go' to reddit. I end up on reddit occasionally when looking up a question and the search engine takes me there. Often, i need to login to view, so i move on, as I deleted my account.

Switch now, it's worth it!

The first time I picked up a crayon, I used my left hand. My parents were concerned but waited it out. After watching me use my left hand the next few times they decided to convert me.

I was brought to a special Sunday school service where right is right. They started with drawing, then moved on to writing. Eventually they worked on my instincts, by throwing things at me, at random, to ensure I used the right hand to catch. I was slapped with a yard stick in the knuckles whenever I used the wrong hand.

Leftiism exists. Parents think they are helping but it's caused all sorts of problems in my life.

Me! I was a huge fan of Kevin Rose due to TechTV and jumped on board as soon as he released it.

I used signal for 2 years. Only got 2 friends to join. Dropped it when they removed SMS. I've settled for Facebook messenger lite and my social life is booming again.

They give you extra storage every year on your anniversary.

Swearing. It's the fucking best!

Like dust under a rug!

Great game. Personally too hard to play on mobile (for me), PC ftw.

Antimine on fdroid. Its my only game (plus ROMs).

Looks good, i havent tried it but i will. Doesnt answer my question ,but useful nevertheless :)

Thanks, yes this is a similar post. There doesnt seem to be a good way to take over the built-in screen unfortunately via any app i can just bluetooth or usb in.

Arrow and Bloons 6. Basically archers shooting balloons.

I was the 666th upvote. Going straight to hell.

I'm feeling your defensive feelings for linux lol. I am pro linux. I love open source, private, non-corporate, stable, software. The community has been fairly supportive in my experience. I use it daily on my pi-hole, and HTPC.

My "advanced needs" comment was in comparison to your "tech illiterate wife" and "80+ year old grandparents" comment. I felt your comment was condescending, as if to say it's so easy to use, anyone could do it. Well as I commented earlier, that may be true based on your needs. My kids used it but their experiences were limited to the browser and zoom.

I've attempted several times over the years to switch to it as a daily driver, but never stick, because my "advanced needs" are essentially any computing interest i may have, whether gaming, programming, running local AI, or just setting up my OS the way i like it. You could argue linux can do each of those, but in my personal experience, Windows does it easily and smoothly every single time. The effort of getting Linux to run the way I want, and smoothly, is not worth the benefits to me.

That being said, i am PRO Linux. It's just not for me, right now as a daily driver. I really really really want that to change in the future. Hell i'm dual booting right now, i just never select it anymore.

Rocket League on steam proton. It was choppy on Mint. Ubuntu wasn't bad, but when I alt tabbed everything slowed down.

steam deck was a fucker to set up with some github alternative.

Lastly my hdmi to 5.1 reciever kept showing as an extra monitor, which couldnt be mirrored or disabled. That was enough to call it for me.
