  • For new users the main question is not what operating system but what window manager as that is what shapes day to day user interaction. KDE plasma is a solid choice.

    Installing it on a separate drive should be no problem. Just select the correct drive during install.

    I use F10 to get to the boot menu on drive and select the drive it needs to boot from there. I have used it once in the last year and although it required many updates its still working.

    Something i recently learned:

    Your live usb does not need to be the same distro as your main. (And in retrospect that makes total sense but i never realized)

    My arch install broke and could not get timeshift to roll back using the arch live usb. But a ubuntu-desktop live usb worked flawlessly.







  • Just to add some variation to these comments.

    Nvidia works absolutely fine on (arch) linux, that needs to be said. Performance is on par with windows.

    Depending on what your needs are its the better choice. (I have a few pieces of software that greatly rely on CUDA)

    But the elephant in the room is your need for non proprietary driver. The only open source nvidia does is the strict minimum to catch up and stay competitive on linux (they where losing before). There is a clear winner on this front. Que all the other comments.


  • Thats hilarious concept really.

    We call it “Punch Nazis” and because the Nazis claim that they are not and actually antifa is Nazis they cant possibly complain.

    Inbuild character editing screen to shape a set of bad guys however you want. Then some community page to upload/download player made presets.

    I non ironically have some experience in game development and would love to help make it real. Unfortunately my life feels like it’s collapsing on multiple fronts and i wont have the mental energy and time to do so alone.

    What we are missing is a gamplay plan cause the funny aside that is most important but i figure a modern take on wolfenstein 3d kinda game might actually do.

    Then we need a github to upload stuff and maybe a lemmy community to organize and brainstorm.
