One thing I love to collect are tiny CRTs. I actually grew up watching Star Trek on a boom box with a television built in (what the hell happened to it, I dont know).
They are awesome! All the fun of a CRT without the pain of it being heavy and taking up a lot of space.
It does seem pretty intuitive.
Honestly I just sometimes want the app to see a file outside of Downloads.
Hahaha! I think developers seem to prefer it? My uses cases are 3D modelling and game engines like Blender, Cura, and Godot.
All those need to be the latest because often the updates are tremendous (as in great or awesome), making the software so much more functional and better to use.
That is absolutely the best usecase. There are only a handful of apps I need to be the latest version.
I am mostly using native packages.
I think I just need to follow the guides more closely. I must have missed something.
No doubt the benefits of technology on a server benefits the desktop user to some degree?
Containerization does add complexity in its assembly, but simplifies things for the system overall, which I think is appealing.
Still, that is just another abstraction away from the machine.
That extra bit of control is definitely a deal maker.
The glory and the strife.
I am definitely using Flatpaks for large, basically institutionalized programs like Blender, Godot engine, Cura, Prusaslicer... Still, I should double check.
Authoring seems very easy, and I have no idea if there is a filtering/auditing policy, so thank you. I will be more careful.
That is actually awesome. It sound like the Fedora aliens (?) but probably more reliable. Cool. Adding VanillaOS that to the list potential new OS that makes computing easy and fun.
Hell yes! Love my laser printer. I have paper to last a lifetime, and I have no qualms about printing stuff out because I can alwasy recycle the paper (make more paper, art projectsz scrap/scratch).
Honestly people, if you don't have one, go to your local Staples or Office Depot (or lets be honest, Amazon) and get yourself one.
I know so many people who do not even own a printer, which is insane. Driving out to Kinkos or FedEx to print out a few pages is dumb. They can be found in thrift stores, and ink or toner can be had for a fraction of the price if you go third-party.
