I think he wants to try something different. He was frustrated that gaming on Linux requires "so much fiddling" (the kids today truly have no idea). So he tried installing windows, and that went about as well as you could expect (I did try to warn him, but he had to see for himself). So, he's ready to reinstall Linux, and I suggested trying a gaming distro just so he doesn't feel like it was a total waste of time.
Another happy pop user here! The business model for system76 is basically to make a distro that works seamlessly on the hardware they sell. Side benefit: their distro also works seamlessly on a bunch of other modern hardware, and they pay a lot of attention to quality of life features that make hardware customers happy.
I think some others here are missing the point of the question. Right now people are arguing about the fosstodon mods policy that all posts there must be in English. People are coming at it from every angle you can imagine, and maybe some you can't. It's amazing! Here on Lemmy we had our own little drama with behaw (de)federation a while ago. (How did that play out? I didn't pay close attention.)
I think OP is asking how to convey that drama of fedi culture. Not (necessarily) the technical aspects.
Wild thing about this picture is that Wikipedia is basically the only permanent place it can be found. The post there says it's from Getty, with a link, but that link is now broken. SNL sure isn't letting this footage out. From the WP article: all the rebroadcasts of that episode use footage from the rehearsals, where she held up a different picture and didn't tear it up.
Thanks!!! I'm curious and getting more excited about the new DE, but I'm not quite confident enough to try installing it. So reports like this are really useful!! I guess the streaming slowness is something that will be improved (I have no idea how).
When you say "some flatpaks still don't like Wayland", what kinds of issues do they have? Are they just annoyances, or more serious?
Here's something that took me a while to realize and I haven't seen mentioned much: check where the start/stop points are on each layer (z-seam) and adjust so that they're not right on parts of the model that are small or need to be more precise (teeth, threads, hinge bumps, etc). I was having a real hard time with some print-in-place hinges, and the problem was that the layers were starting right near the hinge. The finer details were getting globbed up with the bit of extra filament there. Once I moved the z seam, it printed like a charm.
Thanks!! I deleted the outdated entries and it worked like a charm. I agree it's an unusual enough situation that building a tool to do it is not worth the trouble.
Is this a rhetorical question? One very very strong password that is never passed to a third party, managing a separate passwords that do have to be sent over the internet, is definitely a better strategy. It makes 2FA redundant for the majority of standard threat models, and that's why bitwarden includes support for those timings too.
I had a similar problem caused by loose thermistor wiring, similar to what other people here are suggesting. I used an extra zip tie to secure the wire so it doesn't wiggle during printing, and the issue was fixed for me.
I'm glad this got left up, because it doesn't seem like a rule violation to me. It benefits at least some other community members, like me, who didn't know there were any options at all for a TV launcher.
Yeah, you have to wait until other people are ready to switch. I just mention signal each time one of my friends complains about Facebook owning Whatsapp, and eventually some of them switch. I don't know that about the ads, but I guess I'm not surprised.

Thanks, yeah my impression of Wayland was similar. Curious why not flatpak steam; that's what he was using before, and it seemed fine.
