The best os

Egui seems great to me so far, not super experienced with it yet though. I think you can get away with very little js using egui for rendering.

Pretty sus :P

I would start by removing the graphics card if you have integrated graphics available (or disable the PCI port in your bios)

This reminds me of the kinds of issues I would get when setting up overclocking and getting just past the limit of stable operation. If you have overclocking set up definitely try disabling it.

If removing the GPU does nothing don’t forget to check removing each ram stick separately, or make sure your bios runs a full memory check.

These days if I can’t install it with winget I’m not installing it

I’m waiting for pure GNU/NT. It sure as hell ain’t Unix!

My experience is that without swap my system will eventually lock up, without a clear sign of why. This was especially true when disabling memory overcommit, but I blame applications for that one.

Who knows maybe my ram is failing.

🤣

Pycharm has a Linux release

And enforces the value of installing documentation and source packages 😅

It’s even better if your only internet connection is that computer you broke.

Lol wrong again

Basically, just using gtk instead of Qt :P

I’m more of a baobab person myself 😋

I think it highly depends on what kind of hardware you are attempting to install Linux on. You can make it work on almost anything, but the graphical installers are best used with hardware that was widely used when the distribution was released.

Also the older and more obscure distros may not have installers that pass secure boot checks, which is very frustrating if you don’t know what is happening.

I really enjoy running nixos because there is very little uncertainty of what’s installed. I don’t run any games so I can’t speak to that, but the centralized configuration makes fixing problems relatively easy. The downside is a steep learning curve to writing your own derivations, the community is split between “flakes” and normal nix derivations, and sometimes you just have to accept that it doesn’t work on nixos without putting in the work to write the derivations yourself. (Don’t get me wrong, people have made derivations easy to build, but it’s an unexpected side quest when you just want to try some new software)

Unless it happens to be Ms word, in which case we all lose

And then it starts running because you set up wine with binfmt_misc, only to crash a few seconds later

Keep it up, this is how you become one of those “experts” :P

Can you post some more info on how far you’ve gotten?

I didn’t read the article, but can they please rename the installer to agamus?

Whatever else it may be, macos most certainly Is Unix unfortunately
