Lol that is what you said. My bad. Must have read it wrong. That’s on me.

That is true. But I have an overall better experience getting KDE to look like gnome.
I started on gnome. I love it at first, but as time has gone on my experience with gnome had gotten worse and worse, and my KDE experience keeps getting better. It’s a real shame because I actually tend to prefer the gnome look at feel, but KDE has been so much more usable for me in recent years.
Atari 2600. Got in a few years ago from my in laws. Still hook it up and play berzerk from time to time.
I play about 50% of my playtime on my steam deck. I reduced my shooters because even though I like gyro aiming it still will never be as good as my keyboard and mouse.
My bad! You may have totally said that and I missed that part.
You might want to look at the dell XPS 13 series. Their small bezels in the more recent models put them more in line with a MacBook 11 inch. Might be best bang for the buck as far as performance.
I am super partial to old ThinkPads. Currently I am running an x1 yoga gen 4 that I got from a company that was recycling it for free. I also have a P52, and a t460s. All have been great. I have used several others including an x230, an x201, a w520, w530 and w540(least favorite due to the trackpad). Generally I like to stop at about the Intel 8th gen series as parts are usually still fairly serviceable and affordable.
I like KDE. But when I need x11 or something lighter weight, I use budgie.
At this point in my life I would use Fedora Budgie/Xfce/lxde for a lightweight distro. Atomic or not. Lately I’ve been into atomic, but there are some scenarios and software I use that do not play well with the immutable OS.
I find stuff like this a little bit condescending and cringe. But, at the end of the day I believe groups have the right to associate with who they please, I just won’t join any of these groups.
I learned python by finding something I wanted to make, then referencing the documentation to learn things I didn’t already know.
If I had trouble with finding it in the docs or understanding, I would just YouTube it/ duckduckgo it until I found a video that made sense.
I just did that over an over again and now about 30% of my day job is writing python.
That is a fair point. But for CAD work I am unsure of a better option with used ThinkPads. Currently I am running an x11 DE with proprietary drivers on mine and it is acceptable even though it isn’t perfect.
I have seen a ton of P52 laptops used in the architecture and engineering industry. I would lean that way or a more modern option depending on budget. P1 laptops are also pretty cool. Not as powerful but more portable and slimmer.
I am pulling this totally out of my ass, and I might be making assumptions to aren’t necessarily true or accurate. But, maybe you can run a powered USB 2.0 hub on one of those 3.0 ports. My assumption would be the chain would only be as strong as the weakest link (2.0 hub) that you might be able to get 2.0 performance on those 3.0 ports.
This would at least possibly eliminate or confirm down stepping to 2.0 as a solution
But I have not had this issue and could not tell you if it would work or not.
I distro hopped. i mainly used pop, but I had poor performance with gnome so I started hopping again. And after using arch and opensuse, but after several updates causing issues, I moved to Fedora mainly to try atomic distros. After loving Kinoite and bazzite, I put fedora KDE on my main machine and I don’t see myself leaving.
I disagree with my mah and old man a lot. But, when I was having hard times as a kid, giving them headaches and heartaches, and when I struggled as an adult they were there to tell me they loved me, hug me, feed me regardless of what I believed. They have always loved me unconditionally.
If it ain’t illegal. I’ll host it for them, no questions asked. If I ever needed anything, those are two people I know will be there every time, without fail. It’s the least I can do to try and pay them back, even if I know I never could.
I recently have been trying to play through all of the final fantasy games in chronological order. (Mainline games). Playing the gba dawn of souls currently. Playing through ff1
NV is great on the deck! I started up a fresh file a year ago on the deck as a psycho addicted knife wielding charismatic serial killer. Probably my favorite fallout.
I bought it on sale for like 5 or 10 bucks. Play it on my deck. After they added some npc quest lines, and if you don’t mind being pay locked out of some customizations, it is an ok game.
I love the fallout universe and getting to experience some lore from so close to the bombs falling. But it is my least favorite out of all of the games. I even enjoy 4 better than it.
I think so. But it would be hard and I would be surprised if anyone besides Valve could pull it off.
I have a second batch steam deck and still play it often. I wish it had a slightly bigger OLED screen. I think the 16x10 8inch equivalent is a good size.
There would also need to be a fairly decent CPU and GPU upgrade. As well as either an efficiency upgrade or a bigger battery. I think with enough time if we could get a decent arm CPU with good GPU performance, but that is likely not going to happen anytime soon, this could theoretically hit all of these requirements.
I would like to see hall effect sticks and triggers by default.
That could dethrone the steam deck. Especially if it had good linux support, either steam os or bazzite would be good for me.
