When I meet someone who doesn't care, I work twice as hard to fix things.

I wanted to but everyone on Lemmy told me I was an idiot for wanting a feature Mac and Windows have had for a decade (decrypt on login) .

But seriously it's just not there on Linux yet. Either you encrypt and have two passwords, or give up convenience features like biometrics. Anything sensitive lives somewhere else.

Or... lemmy lol

I used to hate when people would suggest a "better" distro for a newbie but now that I've tried Fedora I understand and agree that it is the best. Specifically kinote but also silverblue.

EDIT: I feel I should clarify that IMO OPs pick of Debian is also really good

Thanks for this, so any 802.11r router would work?

oof on the expensive side but might have to do it. Were you able to install open wrt on it?

He won't just get rid of it, he will wield it as a weapon against anyone who criticizes his administration

This won't happen, what will happen is that he revokes the broadcast license of anyone who criticizes the administration and removes all consumer protections against privacy and surveillance. he will repeal section 230 for everyone except X and Truth social.

He's not going to "get rid of it", he's going to corrupt it. Give spectrum to the biggest donors, reverse net neutrality, get rid of antitrust, revoke broadcast licenses of anyone who criticizes him.

It was still a good suggestion thanks. Something with openwrt is preferred but anything that's not google is an improvement.

Thanks! openwrt works on these?

Mesh in this case means one wifi network visible to wireless devices with multiple nodes broadcasting it. In my case both nodes are connected via ethernet.

That's good to know actually. Is Nvidia so poor with Linux that it wouldn't be worth it assuming all else being equal?

Really? You can get an RTX 3060 card for under $300 USD. Someone else in the thread recommended the RX6700xt which is double the price. You're saying the AMD has worse performance (not in Linux)?

Thanks! How is AMD with ray tracing? I play a lot of survival horror and want to experience that spooky lighting

SJWs

Ah yes REDDIT. The website that famously does not have any safe spaces for conservatives.

Thanks for sharing? Why is every Lemmy single comment section filled with unrelated iamverysmart comments.

Fedora Kinote just works.

I used GNOME for years because people say it's "easier", but it's not "easier" it's just simpler. I almost never need to go to the command line with KDE whereas with GNOME it was a weekly occurrence. I am frankly embarrassed I wrote off KDE for so long.

Windows has an entirely different set of objectives.

I never thought of it this way. My first reaction was "What do you mean 'different objectives', they're both operating systems!" But Windows is an operating system with the objective of making profit for Microsoft. Linux is an operating system with the goal of... being an operating system.

It really puts it in perspective. Windows (and Mac) can and will only use useful to the consumer up to a point.
