TempleOS received mostly “sympathetic” reviews.
😅
Granted.
For a beginner, however, this is a difference that would take some explaining. As you said, some distros heavily theme the desktop environments (DE) before shipping, so in that sense the question is fair.
By extension, of course, I am with you, as with the right amount of work, any distro can run any DE and make it look any way.
True.
And while we wait we keep our factories running, our cars on the street, our planes in the air, our meat on the tables, our plastic wrapped around everything and keep believing that we will be just fine.
I would say it is openSUSE Aeon.
An immutable distro that you install and it “just works”. Applications come in via the onboard Software Manager (using Flatpack). It is almost impossible to break, as the system itself is read-only. If an update should break something, the OS rolls back itself. It can do this, because it’s basically updating what you’ll get after the next reboot, not the running system. If something goes wrong, it reboots to the working version.
Still in development, but super stable.
Edit: spelling
Not mentioned in the article, but I wish there were a (simple) way to get Microsoft Store apps to run on Linux. Some do by jumping through technical hoops, but many don’t.
Ah. You pray at the altar of Google with the mantra: “It only works in Chrome or Edge. Why not upgrade your browser?”
What could possibly go wrong with giving all the power to one browser engine? If only there was a precedent to learn from…
Global peace and security.
I really wish this would gain some traction. As it is, there is just not enough content there to compete with YouTube in any reasonable way.
Thank you. I feel like I’ve found a new way to respect developers that I hadn’t considered before.
Jup. It just says that “the malware was disguised as PDF and QR code readers”.
Not helpful, Mashable. Not helpful at all.
Recent iterations of Windows have been easy to install, esp. when using an entire drive. I (almost) never had issues.
A backup and restore utility which allows me to export/restore system settings and installed apps. This would make a reinstalll much less time consuming and allow installs of the same configuration on other computers.
Didn’t know about that one. Why, there’s no objection in adding more to the collection right here. 😊
Are you seriously asking?
If so, here the answer: It is usually used as a polite response when someone thanks you for doing something. It’s a way to acknowledge their gratitude.
I still hear it a lot. Together with so many alternatives, like “no problem”, " happy to help", “don’t mention it”, " glad to assist", “anytime”, “it was nothing”, “my pleasure”, " sure thing"… and I’m sure there are more.
I read that a lot. Somehow I’m not into adding all my games into the Steam client, though I am not totally opposed if there’s no other option. That’s due to my inherent trust issues with gaming platforms.
Might give Lutris a shot.
Whatever happened to PlayOnLinux?
What of Indie games that I download from the developer’s page or other stores?
Also, how is the update process of Mint these days for make versions? Is it a complete reinstall of the system? I might opt for a rolling distro for that purpose.
Is there somewhere a guide in how to get started with gaming on Linux?
requires some setup

Am with you. Their midrange phones still have headphone jacks, though. I like that.
