My wife cannot say empanada. It's empañada. The locals would always wonder why she was asking for a window.

Not to mention the most viscerally satisfying puzzles in a game. And also a wonderful ambient soundtrack.

Valve bootlickers

It ain't like that, kiddo. I support other stores like GoG, too. I just refuse to ever use EGS unless they completely change.

But Liz Cheney supported Kamala............

Look at all these Republicans who say, "Don't vote for Trump."

Surely that'll work...

Please speak out acronyms once. I have no idea what ADP is.

Giants: Citizen Kabuto.

Black & White (with VR support).

Shattered Galaxy.

Crystalis.

It's been so long since I've played these. I need to replay them.

And you sound like the entrenched Windows user who doesn't realize all of the little things they've internalized to keep their system working the way they want to. I should know, I was one of those Windows users until recently.

Regarding other tools, they really aren't necessary for most users. I don't even use Distrobox. Flathub for UI apps, and Homebrew for CLI apps serves all of my needs.

I believe that Jorge Castro is right about the Linux desktop. It has failed, and it needs to be rebuilt from the ground up. And that's what they're doing. Universal Blue is a completely different mindset from traditional distros, and I think it's the future.

And that's the great thing about Linux. You can continue to use the old methods you're used to and have built up 25 years of muscle memory around.

The N100 is such a little powerhouse and I'm sad they haven't managed to produce anything better. All of the "upgrades" are either just not enough of an upgrade for the money, it just more power hungry.

Universal Blue OSs (Bazzite, Bluefin, and Aurora) are actually way easier than immutable is made out to be.

For one thing, there is no such thing as keeping the system and packages up to date. That all happens automatically as long as you restart your computer every now and then.

It is true that if someone is looking up how to install something online it could be confusing. But anything in Flathub is obviously dead simple.

I think if there were better demos and tutorials, it would seem a lot easier.

For instance, if you can't find something in Flathub, and the only instructions you can find are for installing in Ubuntu, all you have to do is use Boxbuddy/Distrobox and use an Ubuntu container and install it there using the instructions.

It really is the best of almost all worlds. Granted, this setup doesn't work for 100% of software. But it works for the vast majority.

The 1.0 update has a new UI.

I picked it up for the release and I'm thoroughly addicted.

🎶 Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer true 🎶

Universal Blue is my go-to. Their OSs feel like the future. They are so easy to use and low maintenance. The upgrades happen in the background and apply automatically when you restart your computer.

There are three flavors: Bazzite for gaming Bluefin and Aurora for basic workstations and developers

I went with Aurora for myself because I like the developer focused stuff. But I also do a lot of gaming. Even though it's not gaming focused, it's still great for gaming.

My wife uses it on her laptop, too. She doesn't give a shit what her OS is as long as it works and she can use the browser.

That's the spirit!

From that article:

Bazzite is built from Fedora and is phenomenal for gaming

Dude had no qualms about dehumanizing the people he stole money from and didn't give life saving treatment to. Just because he could do it from the cover of corporate mandates doesn't make it any less evil.

I do a lot of gaming, too. But I wanted some of the developer features in aurora-dx. Very happy with it.

My issues were minor, too. I just wanted to make things as smooth as possible, and to also sell my 3070 while it still held some value. I ended up being able to transition to a 7800XT for only $200. Now, it really wasn't much of an upgrade, but I'm happy to be off of Windows and Nvidia.

I had a similar arc this year. I did go through with switching from Nvidia to AMD. I started with Bazzite, but ended up on Aurora.

I'm very happy ditching Windows.
