Linux@programming.dev•Linux is Getting a New Default Folder in Your Home Directory
2·6 months agoThat’s a good idea until you download a 10GB file and you wonder why you’re out of RAM :P
I use /tmp as a temp folder for yt-dlp (it is faster than an HDD when adding metadata and subs to the video), and I’ve ran out of RAM before by downloading a video too big… Silly me, my laptop only has 8GB.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What movie franchise gets worse with each new film?
4·6 months agoI very much enjoy Matrix 2… It has some amazing fight scenes (neo vs the vampires), some cool new characters (The Merovingian, the Twins, Persephone, Niobe…) and I think it’s a fun movie, even though it’s clearly not as deep as the first one.
It’s a shame they never released a third one though 🙄
Nah, I also do; arch on my desktop and laptop, debian on my server.
Unless… we’re both weird… I mean, I’m also weird… but because of unrelated reasons?

Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•Upgrade SSD or getting a big SD card?English
3·6 months agoI had the 64GB model, and I upgraded it to a 1TB SSD.
It is miles better; mostly because some things don’t get installed in the microSD card (shader cache, proton versions…), so I barely had any space left in the internal storage, even though I had 512GB on the SD card.
I didn’t clone the previous install, I just did a new install from scratch, but it was painless and very fast with a USB-C pendrive by following the official instructions. I had to redownload some games but it wasn’t an issue with gigabit internet.
The performance is similar for most games if you have a quality SD card, but if a game does heavy loading you may notice a difference.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•F24 Lithuanian living in Scotland. Ask me anything Dirty or Clean
4·6 months agoWhy did you move out of Lithuania? And why Scotland?
True, but at that point you’d have an inverted slider, and that’s outside the scope of my imagination :P
When you turn clockwise, you move down when you’re on the right side.
To scroll down, you move the slider on the right side downwards.
Idk, it’s intuitive for me, but I guess that it’s like inverted controls on videogames. What’s comfortable for you depends on how your brain works.
I think of it as a (the world’s ugliest) cogwheel.

True, I should’ve used the Sayori template. Shame on me.
Edit: I fixed it
That’s what I tell my brain, but it doesn’t listen to me

Linux@programming.dev•Have you or someone close to you converted to Linux recently (with Windows 10's end of support)?
2·1 year agoYup. My desktop was the last computer I had running windows 10.
A couple years ago, I installed debian on an old laptop that I’m using as a home server now, and that was my first contact with Linux since 2010 or so. It was an experiment that got from “I’m just trying stuff” to “I use this every day”.
Then I got a steam deck, and I saw that gaming on Linux was a thing now. Gaming is one of the things I need my PC for, since I don’t have consoles, so that was important for me.
Then I got an old laptop from my sibling and I decided to install Arch to learn a bit more. Another experiment that got out of hand, until that laptop became my daily driver. I spent less and less time in front of my desktop.
This year, with Win10 going out of support, and having no interest in Win11 after having used Linux a bunch, I decided that was it. I did slack for a bit, because I had a lot of files that I needed to review and backup (or delete).
Because of unrelated stuff with my server -I had to empty my external hard drive to reformat it from NTFS to ext4-, I used the opportunity to do the hard work, and when that was over, installing Arch was a breeze.That was a couple months ago, and I’m still customizing the PC, because life got in the way, and I’m doing things differently to my laptop (using niri instead of hyprland, using btrfs instead of ext4 -which I did wrong and I have to fix to be able to do snapshots-).
But yeah, I’m having fun and I don’t miss windows. There’s some software that I need sometimes, like the 8bitdo firmware updater and things like that, but it’s mostly minor stuff. I did use FL Studio before and I heard it doesn’t work great on Linux, but I haven’t made music for the past 4 years, and if I want to and can’t make it work I can always use Reaper or something :)

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Somehow *this* is what's going to convince me to distro hop.
