Linux@lemmy.ml•I think i am ready to switch from windows and need advice
1·9 days agoThis sounds like a good idea.
I started my Linux journey with Mint. Installation was fine and everything worked, but gaming performance was terrible. I think because not properly supporting my 9700 gre.
Then I installed nobara (fedora) and was really happy. Everything work smoothly. Also the gaming performance was at least as good as on windows. But the fact, that this distro is a small project of a single person I started too loog around for an alternative.
This led to me installing CashyOS (Arch). The setup was a little more complicated and I needed to install more additional packages, than on nobara. It has been a few weeks now, everything is working without much problems, but still… I somehow do not feel at home, like when running nobara.
I thought about switching back to nobara, but maybe fedora KDE is also an option…

Games@lemmy.world•Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it revealsEnglish
337·13 days agoOn the one hand I see the reason for criticism, when a person that apparently never touched a video game becomes a XBOX CEO, on the other hand does her account really read like a real one, and I think this is great. I think there is nothing easier for an Xbox CEO than to have a fake account created going back 20 years and showing thousands of hours of gaming or have somebody game for you Elon Musk style.
This reads like someone that is actually preparing for the new role she has to fill and making her own gaming experiences and listening to community feedback.
Is it as good as having someone as CEO with a long history in gaming? Probably not. But I think this might be the next best thing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you cut a cucumber so that the round slices don't roll all over and off of your cutting board?
2·19 days agoFrom personal experience I can tell that once I went for the basic knive sharpener, the mean sharpness of my knives increased significantly. Yes, the whetstone makes them sharper, but it takes so much tile that I usually used my knives far too long before I sharpened them again. Once I got some basic knives sharpener (thebthings you pull your knive through), I suddenly started to sharpen the knives the moment I noticed they became a little dull.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•HelixNotes - a local markdown note-taking app (Rust + Tauri, AGPL-3.0)
1·20 days agoAccording to the page it supports note linking. Isn’t obsidian also free as long as you are not using the sync service?
At the moment I am using Anytype, but am looking into obsidian. Lately anytypes development feels kind of strange. They are more an more moving from a note app to a collaboration app. And I wonder how long the note taking will be unaffected by it. So obisidian is becoming more and more interesting, because of the independent markdown format…
Thank you for sharing your layout. It was a good starting point. I changed some things arond a bit and arrived at the following layout. I find it good for writing in german, but in english there are still some challenges like ou or oo that are kind of slow…

Europe@feddit.org•EU leaders agree to move ahead with ‘Buy European’ policyEnglish
4·22 days ago“In another sign of the vitality of the Berlin-Rome partnership, Italy, Germany and Belgium co-hosted a pre-summit gathering of 19 member states. The Italian prime minister’s office, the Palazzo Chigi, said the group discussed initiatives needed to “relaunch Europe’s industry”, including a review of the emissions trading system, the EU’s carbon pricing system.”
Yeah sure, please kill the one good system that effectively promotes long term decarbonization.
Yeah I also struggle with the layouts. I feel like they are not optimal for German, even the German layout. Most of the letters that often come in pairs like mm or ll are locked behind swipe gestures, which makes it really hard to type them fast. I get, why the most common letters are in the top layer, but I think swiping twice the same letter takes so much more time than swiping a common letter once… Maybe I have to adjust it a little. As far as I understand it is possible to edit the layouts in the app.

Games@lemmy.world•Gothic 1 Remake | Release Date Trailer (June 5th)English
10·23 days agoBack when the original released it was a great RPG with a great story and a world that felt alive, compared to most other RPG that were on the market. The world was open to explore from the begining without any safeguards to run into strong monsters, which helped the emersion a lot. The controls were strange, but worked somehow, when you got used to it. Combat was challenging and the leveling was rewarding, because you got notably stronger. I hope the remake is good and translates these strength into the modern age.
Yeah, this keboard really is unexpected. Nice idea with the swipe for symbols. And it works better t han I thought.
Thank you for the tip. I like the idea of thumb key. I think it will take some time to get used to it. But I will also give it a try and see if it sticks.
Thanks for the tip. This really seems like a good option. I will give it a try.

18·26 days agoOk, so Mastodon can post to lemmy, does this also work the other way around? And could I follow persons on mastodon somehow woth my Lemmy account? Does this show up as a small community?









Funny to read. I recently came to the same conclusion and downloaded openSUSE yesterday. At the moment I am waiting for a time slot to install it.
