Yeah, I just keep a windows partition for VR. In all of my experience with VR on Linux, it has been terrible and buggy which is just intolerable. I gotta be honest, its not smooth sailing on windows either, steam vr has some bugs they haven't fixed for years, so combining that with Linux just is not good.

I think this might be changing in the U.S., because my friend group only talks on Discord. I don't even have their phone numbers.

I got PCVR working on Manjaro (my main installation is NixOS and I installed Manjaro to see if VR would work) on my Valve Index, but for some reason audio sounded like it was bass boosted a ton and games ran at 30 fps. IMO PCVR on Linux just isn't there yet. The steam vr dashboard didn't work at all either, might've been because of the new Steam VR 2.0 not prioritizing Linux use at all.

Not sure what the experience is like on quest, but I would think its not too far off from my Valve Index experience.

If they were able to guess your pin, you should probably switch to a longer pin or a password. It seems insane at first to type a long password, but if you pick two long scientific words, its secure with only letters.

Clip Studio Paint and Krita are fantastic options for 2d art, and can be better than Photoshop for drawing and painting.

I keep losing my usb c to headphone jack, but I usually use it a couple times a week when its not lost. I have airpods, but I'm on android so I lost the charger for it, and nearly lost the airpods many times.

Simple terminal applications like ping or curl or yt-dlp. I also like using python -m http.server to access my files over the local internet. w3m sometimes works when my mobile data is very slow and can't load web pages. I also do use ssh a lot. I don't need it if I have an ssh app but it is nice to have, and I switched to android for it.

I use it locally.

Personally, I like using the terminal on my phone, and the only terminal I found for iOS is extremely slow because its emulating linux.

I think magma is something else, the tos on aggie.io doesn't mention anything about copyright.

Just stumbled upon this comment. Actually, Windows has been using anime mascots for years in asia. Notably, they haven't made a new one for Windows 11.

Aggie.io is pretty good, it supports pressure sensitivity and layers. It also has online collaboration.

It seems to work fine on my browser. What adblock are you using?

There's an installer that makes a basic config for you where you can choose KDE as your DE.

What are you trying to do on WSL? I think the whole point of WSL originally was to have a linux terminal on Windows, before they added graphics in WSL 2.

When I used wsl, it felt fine. There were some problems with running more GPU intensive tasks, but being able to use linux-only software while I was restricted to Windows was pretty good.

You can add something like this to your config: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48831392/how-to-add-nixos-unstable-channel-declaratively-in-configuration-nix

You just need to have it fetch the tarball for nixos 23.11 instead of nixos unstable.

Yeah. I just thought that the OP was unable to boot or something like that.

You are probably gonna want to chroot into your laptop using a livecd for linux. This will allow you to basically access your terminal without being able to login or boot, and then you can uninstall Nimdow, or turn off auto-login.

Some guides to chrooting.

Chromebooks are honestly the best option for budget linux laptops, you can easily install linux onto many chromebooks.
