I honestly love Powershell, but haven’t tried the Linux version yet. I only use Bash on linux but it has a load of odd quirks that make it unpleasant to use imo. Can’t comment on anything else.

Roblox not working is annoying. I play a bunch of stupid Roblox games with my kids and switching back to Windows just for that is a pain.
I’m at the point of looking to pay for a good usenet service. I’ll definitely probably start looking next week.
I loved the original game and was about to buy the new one, but I did not expect it to be $30. I’ll wait for a sale.
I’ve played this game every year since 1998, and each year I try a wider range of distros. Long story short, EndeavourOS is the first distro that worked reliably and has by far the best support resources.
Yeah that’s where I’m at as well. Irritating not world ending.
Ok that explains it. I tried applying the plasma config earlier. Didn’t fix.
It is blank right now. I’m looking at xrandr right now, but a basic check into sddm.conf suggests I can’t set resolution in there, but can’t call scripts. Might come back to this though.
(Edited for clarity) This was interesting. It gave me arandr to generate a script which is great for lazy me. That script “works” in that it doesn’t give any errors when I test it, but it actually doesn’t have any effect on the login screen. In fact with more digging i discovered that xrandr just doesn’t work at all. I tried setting the display to a lower resolution (default is 3440x1440 so I used 1920x1080) in the control panel to test the xrandr command but xrandr tells me the mode (3440x1440) is not found. I looked again in xrandr and saw that any resolution higher 1920x1080 is not listed any more. I reset the resolution back to 3440x1440 in the control panel then looked in xrandr again and all the expected resolutions are listed again.
xrandr errors when I try to set my display to anything other than the setting it is currently using. Either I’m don’t something stupid with the syntax (99.999% confident I’m doing it right), or xrandr is broken with my setup. Maybe kde plasma 6 and wayland is giving me grief here? My PC has an AMD 7900XT GPU, so maybe it just doesn’t like my GPU for some reason.
Here is the output from xrandr for my current settings:
DP-1 connected primary 3440x1440+0+1080 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 800mm x 330mm
HDMI-A-1 connected 1920x1080+758+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 520mm x 290mm
Here are the commands I’m using in the Xsetup script.
xrandr --output HDMI-A-1 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 758x0 --rotate normal
xrandr --output DP-1 --primary --mode 3440x1440 --pos 0x1080 --rotate normal
My son has a gaming laptop that is plugged in constantly. I vaguely remember reading that all modern laptops protect the battery to some degree, though not sure how. I’m guessing it is by using the mains while charging. Not sure what the damage is to a battery that is constantly fully charged.
I desperately want a simple GUI for setting the sample and bit rates for my audio input device. Mine is a Focusrite 2i2 gen 3, but there should be a fairly universal way to do this in Pipewire.
Linux user. Installs fancy gui. Uses terminal for file management.
/Use your own meme format.
In the UK I think it depends how much you torrent, how often, and who your ISP is. I’m pretty sure the big main ISPs all have to be vigilant and tell their customers off for doing it. I use a small ISP, and I set my upload speed to 10Mbits and my download to half my max bandwidth. I don’t seed a library of stuff just whatever is being downloaded, then I stop. So yes. I’m a leech and have been for years. No VPN. However we only torrent when we can’t get something on a service we already pay for so not more than 3 times a week.
tl;dr - in the UK use a small ISP and stay below the radar and you’ll be fine.
What, things like sudo rm -f /
This seems like bullshit to me. I’ve not seen anyone complaining their VPN isn’t working. And any business with staff using VPNs would not be happy if they managed to let that update get applied.
I’m on Pixel 7 and current Firefox, but it won’t install. It Just says “no app found to open xpi files”
Edit: fixed. Have to engage Dev options. Settings > About > tap the Firefox icon a few times. Then go back to settings and you’ll see the “install add-on from file” option.
Does it still run Roblox? Since it stopped working under wine (again) I read it was the only way to get Roblox on Linux.
I understand your pain. Most things you need to configure are either in your home direct under .config or they prompt for admin if they need it. However, not everything has a convenient gui interface to make config changes. This is mostly ok because configuration is usually done once and then never touched again.This is how Linux works, it just isn’t a like for like replacement for windows, though it can achieve the same goals.
I like a better gui for adjusting audio devices, specifically the sample and bit rates. I haven’t found anything that can do it in a straightforward gui.
That’s what EndeavourOS is for. Essentially it is just Arch with a fancy install, plus some minor tweaks and packages you’d probably install in Arch anyway.
The AUR and the wiki is what makes iArch so good. All other Linux distros rely on good forums and public guides, which means you need to be on Ubuntu or Debian for there to be enough content out there to help you if you get stuck. But with Arch most stuff is answered by the wiki or with a package from the AUR. Also the community is generally very helpful and direct in forums and Reddit posts making finding solutions much easier, in my experience, than other distros.
Anyway, I love Arch.
I like Nano. I think it is quite good. There, I said it.
