I always type get and then very mad when the terminal/powershell tell me how high I am.

penquin ,

Lol. Right after Microsoft added sudo to windows.

penquin ,

Why are they “cost cutting”? Are they going broke or something?

penquin OP ,

Save it and then go to “Gnome Tweaks” and activate the option “make Caps Lock an additional Ctrl” on “Additional Layout Options - Caps Lock behavior”.

And how do I do that on Plasma? What’s the equivalent to that in plasma?

penquin OP ,

I actually found that option (damn plasma has everything lol) and selecting it killed the capslock completely. However, doing whatever the person did in the link without the option selected fixed the issue.

Pop os has an app store called “pop shop”, that has both apt and flatpaks. Get all of your apps from there. They also have an app installed called “eddy” that you can use to install .deb packages in case an app is not available in their app store and you had to download the .deb package for it. Also, I know pop os has an outdated desktop, but they’ve been working tirelessly on their rust based cosmic desktop and it’s coming along pretty nicely (an alpha release is coming soon). They do maintain their current distro no problem. I honestly would stick with it and set it up to your liking. It’s a very good distro. As for your OneDrive, that can work with Linux no problem. You can also use Google drive on Linux.

penquin ,

At least y’all have “paved” roads.

penquin ,

Me looking at my unit tests failing one after another.

penquin ,

I don’t use app images of flatpaks. I don’t like either.

Mom is always scary. I don’t care how “gangsta” you are, those fucking flying flip-flops WILL get you.

This is way too long and complicated for just a bios update. Dell laptops actually have a “update bios from flash” option in the boot menu. So all you need is a USB stick formatted to FAT32, copy the bios update file (that you download from their website) into it, boot into boot menu and choose “update bios from flash”. I have done this so many times and even made a YouTube video about it.

penquin , (edited )

Doesn’t work on all dell laptops. Doesn’t on my inspiron. But dell bios has a “update bios from flash” option. So copy the .exe file into a fat32 USB and flash it there.lol. Done. I’ve done it a million times.

penquin ,

Yeah, I couldn’t do that one. I did like 30 minutes and got tired of it. That’s like half a day of talking about the same thing.

penquin ,

I laughed out loud and my wife thought I was stupid for laughing at my phone

penquin OP ,

Thank you. That sucks. I don’t know what makes us so bad that they have to ban us. I don’t understand why the same company is ok with us playing genshin, but not HSR. I’ll look into discord and see.

penquin OP ,

What is anime Zelda? Is this like a code for another game or something?

penquin OP ,

Genshin has been running flawlessly through heroic. My issue is with honkai star rail. Just never runs no matter what I tried. I’ve found the “unnamed launcher” lol, but it still doesn’t work.

penquin OP ,

I got it working with the “redacted” launcher. Thank you so much for asking.

penquin ,

Just to save $100 a month.

penquin ,

But they will still have to make the monthly payments for the solar panels. So, their real savings will only start after they paid off the loan in 30 years. lol

    Could someone please summarize this in simple terms?

    penquin ,

    Thank you

    penquin ,

    Damn, I hope it’s, like the other commenter said, wrong.

    penquin ,

    They use a Mac mini somewhere to route these messages. So you’re logging into that Mac mini with your iCloud credentials. Sounds like a privacy/security nightmare and creepy as fuck.

    How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?

    I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....

    penquin ,

    Depends on what you use. I’ve used Linux for 6 years and I’ve never needed any windows exclusive app. I still do have a laptop that’s running windows for just in case. I literally only open it once a week or so to update it, that’s it. For my use case, Linux has everything.

    penquin ,

    It’s a sport?

    penquin ,

    Honestly, I never thought of it as a sport. That was actually a genuine question 😂

    penquin ,

    I do that when I go to the kitchen to eat something. I move my body and walk to the kitchen

    penquin ,

    And we out here just lost in the mix. lol

    penquin ,

    It might be. You don’t know that.

    penquin ,

    I have Ubuntu, inter and IBM Plex installed on my kde plasma install, but somehow I keep forgetting to set any of them and just keep the noto sans that comes default with KDE. lol

    penquin ,

    Linux is stable if you use a distro that’s known to be stable, example: Linux mint. This is one of the “just works” distros. There are a couple, but I highly recommend mint. Linux can do all of what you need done, from documents, PDFs to viewing all kinds of videos. I’ve never once run into any issue doing any of that. You have libreoffice and onlyoffice that have amazing compatibility with MS office. If anything, you can use the MS office suite online and call it a day. Hell, you can use Google’s office suite, too. PDFs? Zero worries. Videos are good, too. We do have VLC which basically plays anything you throw at it. However, since you have a business and want to make sure things always work, I do recommend that you keep at least one windows machine in the office for just in case. I don’t have a business, but I’ve always had this one laptop that runs windows. I debloated the shit out of it. Blocked all of the telemetry using Microsoft’s own firewall and it’s sitting there for just in case.

    Edit: forgot to mention that you are always welcome to come here and ask if you needed help. I find the Lemmy Linux community to be extremely helpful. Everyone jumps in to help every time I had a question.

    Bought my first Steam Deck after seeing the deep discounts on refurbs...what should i know as a first time Steam Deck/PC gamer?

    As title says, once Valve announced the OLED deck, I saw the refurbished originals go on a deep discount and figured it was time to buy in. So I ordered a refurb 512GB and I’m so excited for it to arrive! Been in a gaming rut for a long time now and, having never been a PC gamer, I’m look forward to checking out a bunch of...

    penquin ,

    Install all the emulators you can. Learn how to emulate. It’s so much fun to play older games that you might’ve missed out on in the past.

    penquin ,

    I love this comment. I don’t have a deck, but I saved it. Thank you so much <3

    penquin ,

    Use dolphin for gamecube. PCSX2 for PS2 games and RPCS3 for PS3 games. And for games, check out “nopaystation” it’s the best for PSX games. There are other amazing sites. Just search it.

    Genuine question, when will Germany stop simping for Israel? I get it, Hitler did the Holocaust, but that’s gone. It’s history. Hitler is gone and so are his goons. I think it’s time to move on and just think logically. It’s kinda pathetic at this point.

    penquin ,

    I want to hear the German government say exactly this. I’d love to hear “hey Hamas, fuck you, you terrorist fucks. Don’t kill Israeli civilians. Hey Israel, fuck you, too, if you continue killing children. Stop your war crimes”. They are not saying anything to condemn Israel’s obvious war crimes. It’s such a sad thing to see.

    penquin ,

    Here here, best 6 years ever. Never looked back.

    penquin ,

    Could be. To be fair to fedora kde, I’ve only tried it on a laptop that has hybrid graphics Intel/Nvidia. I now have a desktop PC that is all AMD, but I built it with EndeavourOS and never anything else.
