Honestly, I think the fact that you can’t count on instant gratification here is one of the things that helps keep it from becoming a shit hole like reddit.
I don’t mind the slower, more deliberate place here. You get less trolls that way.
I started with Bazzite but didn’t like that it was immutable. I broke the permissions on my drive and had to reinstall trying to force it to let me change the login screen background.
After that I switched to Garuda and have had it about a year.
The most painful part was figuring out what Linux uses as app stores and how they work. Bazzite just released Bazaar and I haven’t tried it yet but I hear it works on other distros too. Software installation and management is the biggest hurdle to easy use and that gap is closing fast.
The most common problem I have had is that a Windows app stops working and I try a different version of proton and the problem goes away.
I have only ever had to use the command like when doing weird stuff. Most people won’t need to.
Garuda also has a great helper app that lets you choose common starting software with check boxes, has buttons for updates, firmware, and other common settings, tweaks, and troubleshooting tools. It makes it pretty painless to get started.
Garuda also comes with KDE, Gnome, or Xfce (your choice) so you can get the desktop experience you like.
I had one of those sleep number mattresses once, they have inflatable air bags inside so they zip open and you can get at all the layers of foam too. If you saw how much moisture gets trapped in there you’d do like I do and turn your covers down for the day so everything can dry and air out.
Making your bed all nice and tight just traps a whole lot of moisture.
Garuda is also very user friendly and gaming focused if you want something that isn’t immutable.
Does Bazaar also work with other distros, or is it Bazzite only?
When I lived in LA it started a week early and on the 4th itself it was a fireworks show finale amount of fireworks for 8 hours straight.
But just turn on the radio… right.
Maybe it’s time to realize different places are different and there may be values to other people’s perspectives even if they don’t reflect your particular worldview.
We create a world of kindness or selfishness, judgement or forgiveness every day. These behaviors may get you money or power, but the world you have to live in gets worse. I don’t think you realize how much you lose getting ahead, and how much you cost everyone else.
If you haven’t looked at Garuda yet, it’s the system I switched to after Bazzite. It’s Arch based and user friendly.
I don’t get it. I have Garuda, which is Arch, and it was super easy to install. Maybe raw dogging Arch is harder?
Garuda absolutely nails it with their helper app that sets you up with a choice of popular software, handles updates, and gives you easy access to common settings.
It makes it very approachable for people new to Linux.
That’s fair, but as a Linux beginner, I was happy to have more software than I needed at the start rather than not enough. If you know what you are doing, I could see how you could have a different opinion.
I assume you are taking about desktop environment stuff? I installed the xfce version and it’s been pretty streamlined.
For stoic men (and maybe women, who knows?) Captain Phillips… but not till the end. It sneaks up on you.
Oh? I’m still a Linux noob, educate me.
After Bazzite I went to Garuda, is also gaming focused and has a handy helper app that helps you install common software, run updates, and more.
If you need a new distro it’s worth a look.
Garuda had the same gaming focus as Bazzite without the immutability.
Those are all good questions, but I do want to point out that if they were really expecting 20 voters at each location and had 300 ballots at each, it suggests that they were trying to be well prepared and got bad information/advice somewhere. This would argue against bad intent.
That doesn’t mean they still didn’t screw up, but it could be the difference between conspiracy and just unprepared
“the corporation” is running it now. It’s not about people any more, it’s all procedural and goal oriented operations now.
I assume you mean raw? Because I’m a noob and I installed Garuda, which is Arch, and it’s been dead easy.
Everyone could use Arch! Let’s all flex together!
