i got none swag unfortunately i am terminally straight

I dual booted Mint a long time ago mostly just to try the whole dual booting thing and to see if I could do it but it never stuck.

This whole thing started yesterday because I saw someone doing some really cool desktop customizations with Plasma(?). So all I really knew was I wanted something with good documentation, is stable, and had kde plasma.

What I didn’t know was how NVIDIA operates as a company and Debians philosophy as an org. I spent a lot of time trying to get nvidia drivers to work the way I need them to on Debian, cuz it turns out I agree with them on a lot of how they think but the support just isn’t there. Nouveau worked great out of the box but trying to run any games properly was a different story.

After that I settled on Fedora KDE, I had some minor issues with their install process which i think were also caused by nvidia, but I managed to solve that and get the drivers sorted pretty quickly.

The most difficult part was buying a 1080 way back in 2014 and suffering the consequences of NVIDIA 12 years later lmao, i haven't tried any pirated stuff yet so im sure that will be an experience

Is it possible to import executables into steam and force its compatibility stuff onto it?

but the amount of time and effort to QA at the scale the major companies do for their OSes is on another level.

As somebody who uses Windows and iOS daily at work, I assure you these companies are not doing QA anywhere close to this level.

TAILS, the distro for tor/darknet usage, says that people should not use Etcher because the program sends telemetry data back to their servers, ie it records your IP address and what type of distro installer you made.

TAILS is currently recommending that people use Rufus instead. There is also another program for creating bootable USBs called Ventoy.

I always make bootable usb using the simple 'dd' command line tool.
