I think that seems like a good idea

Ew, R*ddit

Yes, that, in fact, is an unpopular opinion here.

i always thought /usr stood for “user”. Please tell me I’m not the only one

The difference is, that you’re using something for free, and you can disable this very easily.

I love that he finally talked about it. He shortly mentioned the switch to Linux a while ago, in a gaming video, and Im excited to see if this makes Desktop Linux a bit more popular.

I’m not that deep into the topic, but I experimented with GTK and tkinter as a kid

Idk, use whatever desktop environment with whatever theming suits you, there’s a seemingly endless supply. and if that really doesn’t work, try to make your own, i guess!

I’ve heard of “Disk Driller” but I have no idea how sletchy it is or if it’d work

I used Windows 7 before, but my first computers all ran Linux. (Raspberry Pi 2b with Raspian; First 64-bit PC ran Ubuntu Mate)

God I hate what the modern Internet does to my brain. I had to double check if that laptop is AI generated

I dont think the community is generally against AI, there’s plenty of FOSS projects. They just don’t like cashgrabs, enshittification and sending personal data to someone else’s computer.

Well you can, but there only are quite hacky approaches like

• diplaying a webpage with a stream of the screen
• using a capture card on the laptop and displaying the input
• using a laptop that supports it
• using a display control board to turn the diplay into an external monitor

I believe you can buy a dummy HDMI plug and use Deskreen to host the screen in a webserver. This should work, but I don’t think it’s a good solution.

Edit: Deskreen seems to no longer be maintained and therefore doesn’t support wayland. I think it’s because of the Ukrainian war, and the creator being directly affected by it.

Gnome disk utility.

I like this style, reminds me of modrinth

Unrelated question, but what’s the DE in the screenshot? Looks super clean

Daily drove it for a year, and it did its job fine. The devs are friendly, but to me the distro wasn’t that much more than Arch with some different kernels

Can confirm!
