I’m here to stay.
Exactly what I wanted to say. If you have to modify the operating system this much, why do you want use it? It’s not like Windows, we have lot of alternatives, and similar alternatives using the same foundation too. I don’t understand these efforts.
I am baffled.
But they are presented and optimized in a different way. Not only for the search engines, but also the way how it affects the human. And in the end (no pun intended BTW), one is talking about KDE specifically, showcases it and goes a bit more indepth. And the other is a very short and simple page, talking about Linux in general with a few key bullet points. So having two different ways is not a bad idea actually.
Or just because they are used to it and don’t want to learn a new package manager and all its features and quirks. Would be a shame though. Everyone should!
I still don’t get Docker. Can we see it as a universal package format that works across all systems, kind of? Well in that regard, we also have JavaScript based applications for the web browser and Web Assembly to run locally too.
Well a comment like this will not help in your case, calling people idiots is not nice. Most on Linux sub don’t like Windows, you should expect this. No need to get furious about random internet points. I also don’t like Windows, but wish you best luck with it. At least you are using Linux on it. Just ignore people who hate YOU for that.
You would be surprised by how many people buy a new computer, just because Windows end support. Most are not aware of Linux or think its a complicated geek system that only hackers use, because they read some weird comments about and from Linux users. At this time, campaigns like these are needed.
Nice article. But a little bit too wordy and long. They need to shorten this a bit, if this is an initial page trying to make it clear.
Wait a minute… I never used Steam Deck with a keyboard. There was no way to activate the menu via the keyboard? If so, how did people do it? Was there a need for always a controller on the side, when using Steam Deck with a keyboard?
You should look into Romhacks of the original console games (especially PS1). There are some very interesting mods available: FFT (PSX) and FFTA (GBA) and FFT (PSP)
Now this involves patching original Roms with the Romhack mod files. I do most with Romhack Patcher JS directly in the browser (nothing is uploaded, its total offline and local application in browser).
Emulation
RetroArch can be installed directly from Steam store like any other game. It has even Cloud save for save files of games. I use the Beetle PSX core on it, which needs to be installed from within the application itself. Each core can emulator other systems. Now for some people RetroArch is complicated. So its up to you if you want to go that route.
As an alternative, there are emulators or suits of emulators that help with setting everything up. In example RetroDeck or EmuDeck. They need to be installed outside the Steam store, either as a script or as Flatpak I think. I don’t use any of them, so cannot help further there.
Rewrite in Rust is not harmful.
I see. Well for the link, it shows up as a hyperlink to the webpage itself. But I see now what you meant with it.
Hi, always nice to get a reply back after solution is found. Unfortunately I cannot see what is after the “following:” and “It’s referencing…”. Could be my configuration, not sure whats going on here. It looks like this for me (scaled down, no need for full size anyway, so it does not confuse readers):
Lol, from the title I thought this would gonna be about Ai and so called “Vibe Coding” (what a dumb term BTW).
Why would anyone on Linux want to use a Microsoft terminal editor, when especially on Linux we have a long history of very strong and good terminal editors? I mean really, why?
have a temperamental internet connection at home
Love this description. :D
I don’t use Fedora or dnf, but looking at the manual on https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/dnf.8.html I could find following:
dnf [options] upgrade <package-spec>...
Updates each specified package to the latest available
version. Updates dependencies as necessary. When versions
are specified in the <package-spec>, update to these
versions.
dnf [options] upgrade-minimal
Updates each package to the latest available version that
provides a bugfix, enhancement or a fix for a security
issue (security).
So I assume you can just specify which package to upgrade only.The minimal variant does not support specific packages, but maybe a good idea to get all important stuff in one batch first. Then the general upgrade command would have less work to do I guess. At least here on the Arch side, upgrading a single package is absolutely not recommended. But I don’t know how dnf handles this.
Also on Archlinux with pacman each package gets downloaded before the installation process begins. So if your internet goes away while downloading, it does not matter, because next time it will only download the rest of the packages and continue from that point. And it only starts installing locally after everything is downloaded from internet. Now, as said I don’t know how dnf handles this, but would assume it does it similar.
Only sunshine and roses allowed? For all the Ai hype in the media and lot of people blindly following, its good to see and remind us the shortcomings. As long as it is done properly and honest, I have nothing against a “Pro” and a “Contra” article.
Oh I see, it was intentional. I thought to myself “this has no output, there is nothing”. Well it makes sense now. :D
If you don’t care the entire operating system, just to run a few specific software, then there are gotta be better alternatives. Debian, Mint or even Fedora could be good alternatives.
