Windows is very bloated, like a corpse lost at sea for days. Also, the insecurity which is introduced by Windows Copilot doesn't help matters in my opinion. I honestly think that Microsoft is harvesting data rather than collecting it; Canonical, they actually collect just the bare minimum in terms of data, just enough to keep their Ubuntu distro rock solid! While you can do a little to prevent getting your data harvested on Windows, it's easier to dodge that shit on a Linux Distro. There are several distros custom designed for privacy, as nobody likes a snoop!

Why switch out of curiosity? I switched myself to a user-friendly distro, but I find myself curious as to why others choose to!

This gives me the ick; this snake oil boom needs to run out of steam. 🫠

Same, I truly love to see these weirdos getting destroyed on TV. It won't sway the cultists overmuch but general population will likely be, "I don't wanna vote for that."

If anything, this is a sign that Rachel Scott is highly employable to make that insecure orange wanker go off the rails! He's a weirdo who desperate cultists want to get elected. Not worthy of being handled with kid gloves, grill his ass!

So freaking cute, I can't contain the squee that wants to be let out!

Its only one LTS Version behind, but its still very usable. I have confidence that COSMIC is going to be just as easy to use as Pop!_OS is now. This gives them an opportunity to make even more changes that will improve the end user experience. The System76 team knows what they are doing and won't release a busted product.

Pop!_OS is built different than other distros, I only had to apply 1 tweak and was minor AF. Honestly, if they were up to date with Ubuntu, I'd still be using that banger distro. First they must build COSMIC, their Rust based DE.

With tweaking, I'm sure most games would be just fine running on the Steam Deck. It's just a matter of figuring out the right settings.

I find older Windows games have the most issues like Oblivion or Morrowind if you install the stock standard GOTY. However, there's an open version of Morrowind that can be run via Lutris its just a bitch to get Lutris to work. Persistence is key.

They are being disruptive in a way that isn't kind; arrests would be the best way to deal with them. They are white nationalists, shouting slurs at black people who are fellow citizens in the USA, we should not let them believe this behavior will go unpunished. It will make it worse in the future, enabling hate groups to thrive is something a sane country should never allow.

Gaming on Linux has drastically improved. I'm still cautious about buying non-native games and running them via Proton, but I am no longer worried about not having access to cool games! Proton is one of the best innovations that Valve came out with thanks to their Steam Deck. It makes non-native games feel like native titles, most of the time my save data is intact, and I can just pick up where I left off. It's rare that I can't use an older save if I am using Proton to play a game.

Until they can protect the hinge better, I wouldn't be able to purchase one of these over a slab style phone. A grain of fine sand would ruin this phone's life. I'm waiting on the time when foldable devices improve drastically enough for me to get one.
