Yeah, when I tried basic Ubuntu about a year ago, it must not have liked something about my two monitors or Nvidia GPU.
The whole desktop was shitting itself, and at one point I could see my mouse on one monitor but the clicks were taking place on the other monitor. It’s a nightmare to debug things when you can’t accurately click any windows or buttons.
Endeavor and Pop both worked out of the box.

I do this as well. Works great for both serving me the most interesting content and limiting how much time I spend on Lemmy.

god i forgot about this one
made me spit all over my laptop

Pet peeve: had to check “Other” and write “None” several times but otherwise fun little survey. Results should be fun to look at.

Similar vibe here. I mourned the loss of the dad I thought I had. Not going to maintain a relationship with the person he is now.

lmao this is good

First time I installed Linux was maybe two years ago, and I watched a video that basically told me it’s best to start with something simple and install things as you need them, so I got plain ol Ubuntu.
Well it turns out it’s really hard to get basic shit working when basic shit doesn’t work. I was having some crazy dual monitor problems.
I’ve tried Pop and Endeavor now and I’m much happier.

I’ve been playing so much Mindustry this Summer. I didn’t even realize it was open source when I bought it but that was a fun fact to find out.

These comics are always fun to read because as an R user, I only ever hear about how fast python is.

I could not remember the name of Liartown but this post reminded me of them as well. So glad you linked them!

Please leave my son alone, he isn’t hurting anybody

Upvote for the ROSE Online b-roll. God I loved that game.
Edit: I commented too soon. Didn’t expect ROSE to actually be related to the topic at hand lol

I’m not a plex/jellyfin user, but I have a server and did try setting up Wireguard (as well as headscale). Could not get either of them to work. I use containers pretty often, so no issues there, but debugging networking issues is just above my pay grade. Tailscale just worked in like 5 clicks. It was stupid easy. If the alternatives get any easier to use, I would love to switch over to FOSS.

Admittedly, I just make the occasional meme for friends, but Photopea has been a 1:1 replacement for Photoshop for me.

I thought the movie would be about a talking kangaroo. Boy was I disappointed.

While I love Elgato hardware from a design/price standpoint, it’s a shame it doesn’t all work on Linux. I had my Wave XLR for a year or so, but replaced it with a Scarlett Solo so I could use it on Linux.

Yeah, that’s what it looks like. Yeesh.
