What should I use to install a program on Endeavour? Yay? Aur?
Windows is bad and immoral but I can’t say I hate it because I almost never use it. Most of the time Windows is just bad news in my feed which makes me anticipate friends asking beginner questions for their GNU+Linux install.
I stopped using Windows when it became clear it’s purpose is not to do what I want unless that happens to be what Microsoft wants. It was many things that all added up but I can only remember the last straw which broke the camel’s back. I was trying to get something to work and made an online account in desperation - then I struggled/failed to find a way to revert the change and make the user become an offline account again. Faced with a reinstall I couldn’t go through clicking “no, don’t fuck me” several times to reinstall Windows.
What did it say? Why does it break?
If I knew what parts I most wanted then maybe I could do bare arch but I guess Endeaver is the way to ho.
Installing Arch appears to be more complex than Mint’s Click Yes x4 GUI. Should I expect almost everything to just work after install?
I assume compiling Mesa is rather difficult to set up? For reference I’ve not bothered to try and compile Lutris or Wine.
Does that include support for variable refresh rate with multiple monitor (Freesync in my case).
What features were lacking from mesa or Cinnamon generally?
I have 4k 1440, 1080 monitor (120hz or higher) on Mint edge, what would I gain from switch to somethibg else?
If there is a free codec alternative I assume they can use that when the game calls for that codec? Perhaps I don’t know enough that that’s harder than replacing DirectX calls with Vulkan.
Hopefully any legal updates can get up-streamed. I’m not interested in proprietary codecs anyway.
What fixes? Why can’t Proton have them but GE can?
What the, is that a new emoji?
All we have are words or violence.

I once saw an adult struggle to navigate the cursor to a button. It’s a trivial task to most people but that’s only true when you know how.
The terminal is not innately intimidating, it’s just new - it’s not something that they were taught in school. That’s where the hurdle actually is.
I didn’t use early generation smart phones and was completely bewildered when I discovered apps often used swiping left/right to interact. No app I had used before ever indicated that was an option. I suggested we should add indicators to our app to teach people but that was rejected because “everyone knows that”. It’s easy when you know how.
As a nerd who subscribes to the Linux section of Lemmy; well done for everyone trying to learn something new. The learning never stops :')
Is it possible to do work in a shed without using a drill?
It is good of you to do this work and post your findings, so no offense intended, but this command line meme is better off not being spread. The terminal is a tool and should be used when it’s needed. Time spent worrying about this is time that could be spent making it easier to understand.
I was introduced to the terminal by a friend so I don’t know of a good starting tutorial for newbies. I wasn’t interested until I saw you could use the output of one command as the input of another command using a “pipe”, the | character on the keyboard.
That’s what Mint is for, like removing Snap from Ubuntu.
