What alternative would you recommend?

This woman mentioned in the article, Morgpie, has quite a bit of content on Reddit and otherwise if you’re looking for some research material. She’s got some very high quality educational videos…

Tried it out cause of curiosity and the allure of not being subject to a corporation’s whims. Discovered package managers, aur, how customizatable the whole experience is and never looked back

I still dual boot Windows for a select couple games that don’t run on Linux (anticheat) but I try to use it as little as possible cause it just feels gross.

Bitwig and Blender work great on Linux, as well as most games. MS Office and the proprietary apps will need a separate Windows install. Wine is a compatibility layer that essentially translates the Windows files into something that your Linux OS can use. It works great for some things, like games, but isnt recommended/doesn’t work for others, like Office or Adobe suite. Personally I’d recommend finding the alternatives for the programs you need on Windows and trying them out, while keeping the original programs in your Windows install. You can get used to the workflow of the new programs and decide if switching is a viable thing for you. And if not, hey now you’re comfortable with another set of programs just in case you need them in the future.

Essentially, yeah. Most programs will install to your root directory, but all your personal configs and personal files will be in your home directory.

What I’d personally recommend is using Timeshift to automatically keep backups if your home directory on a separate partition, then if you want to switch distros or if you need to reinstall for whatever reason you can use Timeshift to restore your home directory pretty easily, as long as your new install uses the same file system.

Plasma is the desktop environment he wants on Tumbleweed. Neon is the KDE distro. I thought it was pretty clear he wanted to dual boot Windows tbh

Yeah that’s exactly how I do it. Never had a problem with dual booting Windows, just make sure your Linux drive is the default boot drive and then you can select Linux or Windows in GRUB/systemd-boot

Yeah I kinda lost interest in Distrotube when he started randomly pulling out guns in videos…

Like, I don’t care what your political views are as long as you make good content and stay on topic, and keep your views and work separate yaknow. Like hell, if you want to make separate videos about that then by all means, but I’m watching a tutorial on how to set up openbox I don’t care about your guns and freedoms

Burger King poutine is the ultimate shit tier. The gravy tastes like fucking vegetable soup for some reason. McDonalds is not much better but at least it’s edible.

Here’s my fast food poutine tier list:

S- A&W - ( I gobble this shit up like turkey dinner. Happy Thanksgiving, btw)

A- Smoke’s, NYF (similar chains, I would give NYF the edge here though as their fries and gravy are more appealing. Smoke’s has more options though, which doesn’t affect my ranking whatsoever because I exclusively eat classic poutine, but it is worth mentioning.)

B- Arby’s, Dairy Queen (Arby’s curly fries suit poutine well, they pick up a lot of gravy and cheese. Dairy Queen just does all elements well.)

C- Wendy’s (the fries are great, but the rest is always weak)

D- McDonald’s (I never order it, the gravy is meh at best and McDonald’s fries are not suited to poutine)

F- Burger King (the fries are fine but the gravy is the weirdest shit and ruins the whole experience. I’ve ordered it a couple times to be sure and have never finished it. I don’t go to Burger King for this reason)

I will not be taking arguments.

Thunder here, it’s a wagon wheel

She talked to me without me having to strike up the conversation, that was a huge part of it. She was really easy to talk to, and friendly to everyone. She was passionate about the same things as me, and got me out doing things that were beyond my comfort zone. Basically, she was a human being who treated me like an equal human being. There was no disgust at my presence, or laughing at my awkwardness. Those had been the things I was afraid of prior to that.

I’ve tried 4 times, 1 was a complete rejection that nearly ruined a friendship, the second was a weird soft-rejection that led to a friends relationship that felt a lot like I was taking advantage of this person. That ended when they moved away.

The other two led to relationships, one lasted a month and ended with me getting dumped. Second is my current girlfriend.

All of these happened within a year, starting when I was 22. Before that first rejection I had never made a move on anyone because I had 0 self confidence and could only see women as sexual objects. The girl who first rejected me was the first one that I liked for genuine reasons, which allowed me to change the way I looked at women. I now have a lot of female friends and hardly ever think about women I see in a sexual way, when 2 years ago I couldn’t see a woman without thinking that way. I owe a lot to the girl who rejected me, and we are now friends again, for which I am grateful.

Persistent live environment on a USB?

Dual boot is really your only option aside from straight up staying on Windows. You can game and general use on Linux, then switch to Windows when it’s time to work. Not the most ideal and I know you said you don’t want to do that, but if you rely on Adobe products (which sadly many people do) you kind of need a Windows install or a Mac.

Another, much more expensive, option is to get a MacBook (or another laptop I suppose, not sure if the goal is to fully cut out Windows) and have that at your desk for your Adobe uses, and have Linux on your desktop. Not really feasible for most people but I don’t really know your situation so I thought I’d throw it out there.

Would you be able to post your latte layout and widgets used?

Not to mention the hundreds of staff they now have that need to be paid

Exclusively card. Any cash I get is saved. Which is nice because I make a decent amount in cash tips at my job so I’ve got some decent savings from it

Yeah they’ve openly said that they wish they didn’t have to do the clickbaiting, but that the effect it has on their total views/revenue in undeniable. It’s kinda just how YouTube is at this point, adapt or die

I thought the curry chicken one was just a fuckton of mustard at first lmao

Look great!

Just bought the game and my internet is downloading it at a whopping 6 Mbps right now… Gonna take nearly 48 hours.

Saddest part is that the internet is usually much much slower than this so it will likely take much longer than that 😭😭😭

I just wanna plaaayyyy
