FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is it so hard to get Nvidia GPUs working with Linux?2·6 days agoCurrently have 2 machines on MX with nvidia cards. One was flawless from the get go the other took some trail and error by installing some extra packages but I got there.
(Through the package manager I might add, no files edited or anything)
Mint has a somewhat similar user experience. Chances are you’ll be just fine. Try out a live usb.
Wow there, easy, you’re gonna end up on ER.
At the very least take a smal phone.
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceto Games@lemmy.world•I finally decided to go full piracy against big companiesEnglish5·9 days agoUnpopular take: I’m just gonna quit gaming for a while. If I really need to piss away some time I got a bunch of wad files or newgrounds. F it.

I used Linux for a good while 20 something years ago. Mostly for recording music and some gaming (you can say what you want, cube/sauerbraten/openarena/… I had a great time that I look back to fondly).
Then got back on windows around vista all the way to w11 7/8/10 all “ok” OS experiences imo.
11… man, this thing frustrates me so much. Everything you try to do is like getting gaslighted. Updates/reboots whenever it feels like, regardless of what you have going on. (My setup requires a few keystrokes at boot, if not the fan goes nuts)
Coming back to Linux feels like a breath of fresh air. Especially now that installing/using it has become a breeze compared to back then. It does what you ask. Why doesn’t big tech corp get that through its thick skull?
Also, my data is mine.
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there anything you're into that no one or basically nobody is into?1·11 days agoWell, there goes that quirk of mine XD
Fuck yeah, no telemetry or tracking on those things. You go geezers!
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there anything you're into that no one or basically nobody is into?5·12 days agoEvery few years I get a yearning to play through Daikatana.
The entire thing.
I’ve been doing this from before the community patch.
I dunno.
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceto memes@lemmy.world•And they expect to be taken seriously?327·12 days agoDon’t worry, we men are already evening out the odds by getting our panties twisted in a bunch over a clever meme.
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Installing Fedora 42 KDE, bios doesn't see my ssd anymore.1·19 days agoCurrently reinstalling, it’s going extremely slow and it’s at 109%. The bar isn’t even a tenth of the whole.
I’ll keep you guys updated.
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Installing Fedora 42 KDE, bios doesn't see my ssd anymore.2·19 days agoTried it, no cigar. Currently reinstalling fedora. It’s taking forever and it’s at 109% (what?).
FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•Installing Fedora 42 KDE, bios doesn't see my ssd anymore.2·19 days agoIt’s the KDE edition(should have mentioned that), which afaik doesn’t really have an automatic option. But it seems you also don’t have to set all the individual new partitions yourself. I told it to get rid of the partitions that belong to Windows (dell support/image/…) to merge it into one part that fedora would do its thing with.

FreddiesLantern@leminal.spaceto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•The level of discourse in the US right now2·20 days agoAh man, I had no idea evangelical preachers have been such avid Garfield fans.
Leviticus commands us to stone the false prophets.
These assholes are just out for free weed.
And the baby then sang “Baby, baby, baby, noooooo”.
