Also shredder was kinda cool, even if evil.

It’s funny, I’ve heard this so many times. And read through the docs. But I’m a mad lad who has auto updates (I know!) and have never had an issue with Immich.

and it is also the worst.

While you’re at it consider using docker.

You can ssh with a phone

Oh, shit.

Why the Longhorn?

It’s Wayndows XP

True of music too.

zathura does this as well

WSL

This is great but it would have to be pretty terrific to get me to replace Plasma.

I have great memories renting N64s before I owned one.

Japanese people use CDs quite a bit still.

All great recommendations here. But I’ve heard good things about PdfDing. I haven’t used it myself but have followed development since the developer is quite active.

I wonder fire it will do on pc

I thought dkms was recommended only for alternative kernels, and that nvidia or nvidia-open is what’s recommended generally.

I would say don’t overthink the distro. Just about any distro will provide nearly the same performance in gaming, some will just pre-install drivers that you could just install manually. Proton takes care of just about everything automatically anyways.

I enjoyed installing arch as it was a learning experience, and I learn more every time I install it on other machines. But Ubuntu would probably be just fine and has a ton of documentation, and a healthy community to provide support.

I think a lot of Linux newcomers get stalled on this choice because the options are overwhelming. There are so many choices. But at the end of the day once the installation is over, the experience will be almost the same as another distro with the same desktop environment.

If you want to run Linux, choose an distro that is easy to install and just dive into it. If you like tinkering with computers then you will love running Linux.

Why wait? Linux has never been better. I have tried to daily drive various distros for the better part of a decade and have just recently (about a year ago) settled in Arch and have never looked back.

Not what you’re asking about, but this guy was very inspirational for me wrt making latex diagrams easily.
