Don’t know, I’ve never used mint on my pc. If you have nvidia you might encounter crashes the first time you install it but after fixing that it should be smooth.
you might have problems with it on Mint. I tried using it on Mint and had a very bad time with it. Mint isn’t great with nivida cards if you’re using one.
If you really want to use Hyperland and something that installs and that you can use that’s just about as easy as Mint I’d suggest CachyOS. that’s the one I moved to after using Mint for a bit. gives you the option to install hyprland while you’re installing Cachy. it’s faster than Mint too.
CachyOS has a pretty good development team and combine that with Plasma that has it’s own development team I’d say it’s in good hands. Compare that to cinnamon which is like one dude and once you get into the nitty gritty of it you quickly find how lacking it is.
One example, if you’re on a laptop and use a lot of public wifi (I do for work) you deal with captive portals A LOT to connect. on Cinnamon/Mint it was an absolute headache to try and get those things to pop up and connect. It was more of a Cinnamon issue than anything else.
on CachyOS with Plasma I don’t have that issue. It tells me that I need to connect to a portal and will open it and connect to it for me.
combine all that with Arch and it’s just a breeze. everything you need is right here: aur.archlinux.org and this applies to all Arch distros. it’s essentially a database of everything you can install on an Arch distro. no need to go googling stuff, it’s all right there. combine this with Octopi (package manager) it makes it way better than Mint IMHO.
And if you have Nvidia you’re doing yourself a deservice by staying on Mint. I think the most you can use on it is the Nvidia 535 drivers. anything above that you’re going to crash Mint. on Cachy i’m on the 555 drivers and my games have easily doubled their FPS. I can play Elden Ring and Helldivers 2 on maximum settings and pull down 90+ fps. games like WoW or FFXIV i’m getting over 100 FPS. On Windows I’d get maybe 30 to 40 FPS on the exact same rig.
The main reason I switch to Cachy was because of the development team. I was also planning on checking out Nobara but again, it’s one guy, so I felt more confident going with Cachy.
as far as Bazzite goes I lookd into it, seemed like something more for handhelds like the steamdeck. there was no live usb version so I didn’t really bother to try it out.
yeah mine is only 4gb too. you’ll be more than fine. I mean I’m on a laptop lol and pretty much every game i’m playing is on max settings pulling down 80+ fps.
What a coincidence, because I saw a dead mouse on my front lawn yesterday when I went out to trim the grass. I know there’s a stray cat in my neighborhood so I’m pretty sure it’s the one shitting in my backyard (dogs can’t possibly get over the fence) and leaving dead rodents.
no. not using the flag as clothing or whatever is talking about an actual flag, not the design being printed and used whatever other way. it’s about changing/destroying an actual flag meant for flying as a flag and also only pertains to officials or orgs representing the govt. an individual citizen can do whatever they want with their purchased or homemade flags with the right of freedom of expression.
Hyprland is really nice and I really miss using it but I stopped after learning that one of the main developers is kind of a transphobic jerk and was mistreating people in the hyprland discord server
Everyone wants to rule the world and think and believe that they can become masters of the universe.
No one can … a few of us might be able to attain that possibility momentarily but it will never be possible to make it last.
So the problem lies with money and wealth.
Remove and outlaw excessive wealth. Go ahead become a millionaire with ten million, no one will stop you but you are no longer allowed to gain any more than that.
Once excessive wealth is removed and more people are able to share wealth and power … then we can talk about world problems like adults … equal adults who have an equal chance at the benefits but also an equal share of the risks of failure.
Right now, the few people holding the power have no risks and only stand to benefit, no matter what happens, so they have no incentive to change. The majority who have no power risk losing everything but have no power to change anything.
