You can also use offline mode.

Yeah that’s it, thanks

Where’s that iPhone comic about society

There’s also general gatekeeping of their developer tools which restricticts ports of software, and not following standards properly (USBc, sms).

Sounds like people with voting. They love to tell you how it doesn’t matter, and yet republicans put tons of effort into making it more difficult.

Ungoogled chromium with some privacy extensions would probably be a similar experience.

Any reason for picking it over all the other chromium browsers?

Yeah, for some reason complaining on social media is the best way to actually get useful support.

Huh, til. Thanks for the correction.

Pixar made finding nemo, not disney. It was released years before the acquisition.

Edit: I’m mostly wrong. Pixar was collaborating with Disney at the time.

Wow! Imagine if China implemented a policy to prevent people from having kids, or had a giant monopolistic corporation that didn’t care about green energy! That would be horrible!

Ma’am/sir this is a Wendy’s.

Nothing because it sucks and isn’t worth the effort if you have an Internet connection and any knowledge on how to use a search engine.

I still wouldn’t use them for dishwashers. They’re overpriced and usually are worse than a standard detergent https://youtu.be/_rBO8neWw04

Monitors at different refresh rates is a downside of x11, which Mint uses for all its desktop environments. Fortunately, they’re working on moving to Wayland for the Cinnamon edition, which has better support for that. There’s an experimental version you can use now, and they plan to be done in 2026.

I’d test things first ofc, maybe with your laptop plugged into one of the monitors.

I mean, for most distros you should be about to install and use the OS without touching the terminal. Yeah, you may want to use it for some things (idk what you were trying to do) but it’s kind of the same thing in Windows with registry edits and such. It’s a tool and if you don’t know how to use it, you’re probably gonna get lost.

Also how is it easier to go to a webpage to download an installer instead of using a store? Even microsoft is trying to move in that direction.

I don’t want to say your experience is invalid because I definitely think Linux can improve in terms of user experience. But it’s not very helpful to just complain about stuff vaguely.

A decent GPU (rx 570). Could play any game I wanted without going through desperate measures to get it to run at minimal settings, could do more with game dev and 3d modeling, etc…

These days, integrated graphics are honestly pretty decent though. Hell, I’m pretty sure the steam deck’s apu is more powerful than my machine in a few ways.

At least you weren’t breaking records
