DankPods just switched to Linux!!!

    He is in for a surprise when he realizes GNU/Linux is much more convenient than Winblows.

    • Which was better in 1996: Nights into Dreams or Super Mario 64?

    Jump

    • So what did it take for you to go to Linux?

    Jump

  • Curiosity and desire to learn.

    • 2GB Raspberry Pi 5 on sale now at $50

    Jump

  • At that amount of ram, you'd be better buying a rpi 3 or a opi zero 3 one.

    • Playing the Windows game Stray on RiSC-V with Box64

    Jump

  • Hey, how's 2080 OP? Will we finally get nano pcs able to run Crysis at 16k, with a power draw under 5w?

    • What distro do you use for your servers?

    Jump

  • Dietpi.. For no particular/proper reason other than its (extreme) focus on minimalism.

    • Linux on non-PCs/Laptops

    Jump

  • I've got two Orange pi zero 3's (one acting as my "home lab" and the other one as my... lab rat.) which aren't ATM machines or PDA's, but... they are more like "very confused potatoes who think they are pcs" and everything "just werks" as intended.

    • DOOM 2 Ray Traced Mod: Enhance Gameplay with Voxels

    Jump

  • Reminds me of a "Realism" mod for Minecraft.

    • Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • I'm using Dietpi on my Orange pi zero 3. Aaaaaand because I'm (pretty much) forced to.

    • The Best way to switch to Linux is to NOT

    Jump

  • Bro have you ever tried to get rid of a habit? It’s fucking hard.

    It's not hard when you take the first step to admit that a habit is bad and you need to get rid of it. Even if your subconscious tells you not to.

    If anything, that is a great way to improve/learn self-control.

    You missed entirely OP’s point

    I "missed" it because embracing a bad habit and adapting outside things to it is not how you (properly) get things done.

    tl;dw: You have a brain for a reason. Use it.

  • tl;dw:

    Improvise (but not really). Adapt. Overcome.

    Then again, I'd rather go for a much "cleaner" approach and suggest new users to "unlearn" the bad habits learnt by using Windows. Which is the "click once and forget" mentality, along many others.

    • What is the better game...The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time or Final Fantasy VII?

    Jump

    • Say cheese!

  • Sadly the "reddit mentality" has already established in this community -- theres no "why" in these downvotes other than as a self-relief/validation thing.

    • Switching back to Linux. For good.

  • Dear diary,

    Today I ate a burger. For real this time.

    • Where Did Arch Linux Come From ?

    Jump

    • Just Switch Over

    Jump

  • "What, you don't like retro yet proper gaming on a 1W device?"

    -- Me, if I were that lone guy holding a controller

    • So I installed Arch Linux... Is this it?

    Jump

  • Am I missing something?

    Yep. You got meme'd -- Arch is a distro like any other.

    • Have you tried NixOS?

    Jump

  • I tried it once and gave up after realizing the necessary mental gymnastics to do simple things like installing something.
