Same. Since the Win 11 update on my work laptop I got so fed up with the OS, that I installed Linux on both of my desktop PC and my wifes laptop. Zero regrets, no more MS bullshit on my personal stuff.

But can I take my Steam Deck with me?

My wifes old laptop died and I got an ancient gaming laptop from a colleague and put Linux Mint on it. It works great.

She uses it for studying and some light gaming (Stardew Valley). It just works. She never used Linux before but had zero issues using it and she even said its just like Windows, just faster.

I personally love the smaller userbase. Less spam, more quality, less screentime, no doomscrolling. Its a win-win in my book.

I saw this multiple times already on Linkedin reposted with huge engagement.

While I understand this is borderline fiction, absolutely unrealistic and in my eyes an equivalent of those pictures with pretty girls laughing with a plate of salad promoting healthy eating, but for me the comment section of this post is the cherry on top cheering how “brilliant” this is. People are so fucked up on Linkedin.

No idea, also not my ideal preference, but he seem to like it, while he was miserable with the IT school.

Very true, more people should follow their dreams.

I know a guy who was kind of forced into an IT university. His parents thought it would be a good fit, as he likes computers and videogames.

He one day decided to quit and took some time off and started working in some fancy hotel kitchen as a temp job, while spending some time away from the family. Fast forward a couple years, he is now in culinary school and wants to become a chef. Needless to say he is happier and visibly has a better mental health as before.

Does it give you multiple options for a route? Like fastest/using least petrol/no tolls, etc?

I am currently using Google maps and waze most of the time and tried Organic maps for a while for a more privacy focused option, but it only gives you one option, no alternatives of similar length/time.

Edit: nevermind, just downloaded it and it does offer alternatives. Looking good as well, will definitely test it, thank you!

Is this where everyone was clapping on the bus?

Agree, also the franchise fatigue is strong with this one.

Recently switched to Linux Mint.

There are really just a couple extra steps to set up Linux for gaming. In my opinion it takes less time to install proton ge, Lurtis or Heroic than downloading and installing GPU drivers on windows:)

For 90% I just download the game via Steam and enable Proton GE (if its not native) and play it straight away.

In some cases if Im not happy with performance I check the Proton DB page to see what settings/proton version/launch commands other people are using and that solves it 9 out of 10.

If you have GoG, Uplay, Epic, etc games just use Heroic or Lutris. Again, first time setup can take 20-30 min using a video tutorial, but after that its all good to go.

I agree, someone should have highlighted it, this is just confusing.

Smoking, drinking and gambling never ends well. Stay away from addictions.

Don’t try to proof how manly you are to your friends/girls. It rarely pays off. Its ok to have a veggie dish at the restaurant instead of a bloody steak. Its ok to not speed with your car to look cool. Its ok to wear whatever the fuck you want as long as you like it, it fits well and its practical for you. Do what you like and be proud of it.

Always save time for your hobbies. Growing up doesn’t means you can’t have fun. If you are in a relationship make sure your partner gives you enough space and time for yourself.

In total?
