You can try out most linux distributions without even installing them. Just plug in the usb, boot from it and choose not to install and you can play around with it. You can try multiple linux oses this way before considering an installation. I’d recommend trying Mint, Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Bazzite (if you’re a gamer).

There are some extra steps you’ll need to take in the BIOS, as in my experience modern computers tend to not have usb booting as the first priority at start up, so it just boots straight into windows no matter what.

I tried ktlint, it was having trouble handling libraries and kept giving me no reference errors for library imports.

I got the Kotlin compiler using sdkman, the closest thing to that command I found was: kotlinc -Xreturn-value-checker=full $(find . -name ‘*.kt’)

It doesn’t really work, it just gives errors for every single import that comes from a library (libKTX in my case)

The debian/ubuntu package for the Kotlin compiler is super outdated, so I’ll have to find a way to get it

You can get a third-party compositor such as picom or distros such as KDE Plasma will come with their own. They can cause problems in my experience, do not recommend using them.

The best way to cope with the news is to ignore it. There is no reason to read about and obsess over things you have no power to change. Focus on your own life and the people around you, learn mindfulness and deeply ponder the structure of trees, the intricate shapes of the clouds, whatever nature is around you, and breathe.

Damn I had no idea it was the Ruby-on-Rails creator everyone was talking about. I just finished making my portfolio in Ruby-on-Rails wth…

The useful skill of being born rich so you could go to an Ivy League School.

Its called Gaia XI - Its the old MMO, Final Fantasy XI, but its been revived by fans. The complexity and nature of the game make it pretty hard to get it running on something other than Windows.

Snaps filled up my root directory with all their ridiculous and mandatory backups. I had to get rid of them. Flatpaks are alright, but nothing beats native packages.

I finally stopped dual booting Windows after I got the “You can’t log into this account due to repeated log in attempts or restarts, wait 2 hours” BS I ran into a few days ago. Sadly there is one game I can’t get working on Linux or a virtual machine, and one laptop feature that will not work until the maintainer of my device’s Linux drivers manages to get it working for my specific model, but being forced out of my own system and told I’m not allowed to access it for 2 hours is intolerable, and the fact its baked into the OS, and can’t be disabled, even more so.

I use linux on my laptop because for some reason windows makes it heat up like crazy and I have to activate the noisy fans, which I’d like to not do at work.

I’ll never be able to play a stable functioning Sid Meier’s Railroads again

It definitely looks like space debris breaking up and burning up in the atmosphere to me.

We aren’t long inanimate objects, we’re human beings and we deserve to be treated better than a can of sardines.

I don’t have any firewalls, and https://206.x.x.x and the internal IP one both worked.

The external IP is properly bringing me to the portfolio, its just the subdomain that now seems to be blocked.

It does. I think my subdomain is being blocked by ISPs.
