Silverblue is so good, everything works perfectly out of the box on my hardware (Framework 13 AMD). I was worried I was going to forget how to do anything because it was so easy so I had to make a second partition and install OpenBSD

Or… Just maybe… It’s a joke and it’s just trying to be an even more absurd take on the original gnu+linux copypasta
The weather isn’t openweather’s fault. It’s a limitation in libgweather (a gnome project). They have to manually approve locations for them to work.
It’s a dumb workaround but this script lets you add custom locations https://gitlab.com/julianfairfax/scripts/-/blob/main/add-location-to-gnome-weather.sh
The really awful part is that there’s not really any regulation that can stop this. If you ban taking away games people bought then they’ll just switch to a subscription which is even worse
Exactly what I always do, since I have to use a kernel not written in rust I uninstall the kernel once I’ve booted so it’s only in memory and no longer tainting my storage with its impurity
I don’t even care about the DLC, I just want slightly less insane DRM. I can’t play the sims 4 right now because of a server outage despite the game already being on my computer. Why do they even need DRM for a free game?
Assuming you mean the hyprland guy, he was just being a transphobic jerk to people in his discord server
Heathen, using any software not written in rust is sacrilege
You definitely can install a graphical desktop on whichever BSD, you’ll just have to follow instructions online somewhere instead of running a premade script.
If you want something really easy to use graphically right out of the box there’s also Haiku, it’s a completely independent OS that’s sort of an open source clone of BeOS but a lot more unixy than BeOS was. It’s really lightweight and has maybe my favorite desktop GUI out of every operating system I’ve used. The only real downside to it is that there isn’t an amazing web browser for it yet, the built in WebPositive is a little lacking in support for modern sites and GNOME Web, which you can install from HaikuDepot was a little unstable last time I tried it. If you don’t need to use the web a ton though (which is probably the more pleasant option on your particular system regardless of browser), it’s really nice.
I’ve never noticed BSDs being much slower, and if you’re already used to minimal linux distros like arch it’s not that hard to set them up unless you like need linux-only software.
Perhaps openbsd or netbsd? They’re probably less likely to drop hardware support for your device in the near future than any linux distribution
Freebsd is also an option but you would have to compile it yourself as the prebuilt binaries are currently 686 despite it having support back to 486
That would definitely be valid for a smaller community supported distro like mint, but canonical is a big company that already has kind of a bad reputation for things like that so I think it was reasonable for people to complain
In my opinion the title of best desktop is a tie between Plasma, GNOME, and NsCDE. They are all amazing in their own ways and I switch between them all the time.
(Hyprland would be in there if the developer wasn’t a jerk but I’m not willing to use it anymore because he is stupid)
The cursed but arguably better way is cp image.img /dev/whatever
With the low resolution I can’t quite tell if I would suddenly live on the beach or underwater
Yeah the biggest problem for people who can’t use a computer always seems to be that they just won’t ever read what it says on the screen. The solution to problems is often very obvious if you just actually read error messages or tooltips or anything
The monkey’s paw version of this doesn’t actually change your body it just makes you trans and gives you gender dysphoria
Honestly I feel like Google Voice isn’t going to be around long enough for that. It really doesn’t feel like something Google would make today and most of the Google products like that get discontinued eventually
I don’t get how people manage to spend so much time keeping arch running. I used it on my laptop for a few years and it just worked?? It was like the easiest to maintain distribution I’ve used other than immutable ones. The only real problems I ever had were accidentally interrupting pacman during a kernel update and not having a kernel, but that was always a like 2 minute fix
