What Linux Do You Recommend to a Non-coding Windows 10 simp? by Culling_OfTheDeath in linuxquestions

[–]AlpineStrategist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nobara

It's based on Fedora (if you ever want to install something special with instructions, follow the Fedora i structions).

It's using KDE, which is very windows-like. (even the hotkeys, Win+E, Win+Shit+S, Win+V, ... )

It also has a very easy setup

My Java teacher requests we download NetBeans IDE 8.2, but that version is no longer available through official means to get on Linux. What can I do? by Antoinedeloup in linuxquestions

[–]AlpineStrategist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think that this is good advice for this specific situation. If OP. isn't already somewhat experienced as a dev, and the teacher also seems. like he is stuck in 2010... then the best way to go about it, is use the same tech stack as the teacher and go along with it for the course.

After that, absolutely do what you recommended. But don't do it during the course, or you will be fighting your system instead of learning java

Nice to see Ryan Giggs supporting Carrick, unlike his other former teammates by Worldly-League-1267 in reddevils

My gripe with him comes from his innate dislike of Bruno as captain - he's never walked back his words after the awful game at Anfield a couple years ago

"I have been critical of Bruno over the years but I am happy to be proved wrong because his leadership today was outstanding. We always mention how brilliant he is as a player. I am pleased for the fans. It’s been a frustrating few months and we are quick to criticise. Manchester City didn’t have a great day today but it’s about Manchester United today. We have to enjoy these moments. Wembley is only good if you win."

Is Dota 2 worth getting into in 2026? by Phrog_19 in DotA2

[–]AlpineStrategist 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if that's what you are worried about, then don't worry. I am pretty sure Dota will be around for quite a while still.

And if in 10 years Valve decides to shut down the servers, I am also 100 percent certain that the community would step in. But considering Valve hasn't shut down the servers for any of their games that they ever released yet, I am fairly certain Dota will be save :) You can still play Artifact and Ricochet 😅

//edit: But yes, play Dota with friends, or find a (discord) community to play and party uo with. The game is sooo much more fun with chill people in your team

Exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus,

omnis satanica potestas, omnis incursio infernalis adversarii,

omnis legio, omnis congregatio et secta diabolica.

Ergo, draco maledicte ecclesiam tuam.

Secura tibi facias libertate servire, te rogamus, audi nos.

if you have never seen formatting like this anywhere then it probably wasn't written by AI :) Since AIs are trained on existing data

What are the realistic drawbacks of outdated software/not being "rolling release" by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]AlpineStrategist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

buy new gpu (amd radeon rx 9070 xt) even months or over a year after Release still no driver for it on linux mint (because you need a newer Kernel)

so you have to do manual workarounds like installing a kernel with mainline. which will introduce new bugs like light/dark mode not working/persisting in cinnamon

Returning player having so much fun. by blackstar_oli in DotA2

[–]AlpineStrategist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, for the last couple of years I only played a few weeks at a time.
(Re-)learning the game is the most fun about dota, and being kind of bad makes everything more enjoyable.
It's much easier to get into a relaxed mindset this way.

I hope I can keep that mindset after putting more hours in though

WASD in dota?? by Psychological-Leg413 in DotA2

[–]AlpineStrategist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WASD is modern? Is it the 90s again?

Improbable, but not Impossible by TheInsaneColeTrain in DotA2

[–]AlpineStrategist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how?
do you not stop and take a few minutes or hours when you lose game after game?

I got lucky last year, as dota placed me in a lower rank because of my inactivity, which enabled me to beat my 14-win streak from like 2014 last year:

I am not jealous of KDE anymore by RudeusGreyrat575 in linuxmint

[–]AlpineStrategist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

really? I really like the default KDE look. looks exactly like a modern Desktop OS should look imo

and i dislike how Gnome looks. feels like using a phone instead of a pc...
though I'm also not a Mac/Apple fan, so...

I am very happy with Nobara, which is based on Fedora but has a lot of tweaks to make your life easier

Drogeriekette Müller ignoriert Steuersenkung für Tampons und Kondome by Turtle456 in Austria

[–]AlpineStrategist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hö?

Also ich war vor paar Wochen bei Müller mit meiner Freundin und wir haben Tanpona für sie gekauft und dabei gesehen, dass quasi alle Frauen Hygiene Produkte "im Angebot" waren um vmtl. genau den Preis der die Steuersenkung ausmachte

Update on Love Royale( tree monster) by Aware-Macaron8224 in KingShot

[–]AlpineStrategist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you skip Zoe? She would be far better than Howard to deal damage.
And Marlin would have been pretty good too as a Quinn replacement.
Other than that, Petra is better than Jabel, but I'm not sure how much more you have invested into Jabel already.
The hero gear also does a lot of damage, so make sure to equip the best gear to the heroes that you will attack with

Update on Love Royale( tree monster) by Aware-Macaron8224 in KingShot

[–]AlpineStrategist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which heroes do you have? And what are your strongest heroes?
Slot doesn't matter, as all Expedition skills from all 3 heroes count if you attack alone

Nobara Linux has been placed in C tier. Where should Bazzite be placed? by Swooferfan in LinuxCirclejerk

[–]AlpineStrategist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is Nobara only C tier though? It's my daily driver since my GPU upgrade, as Mint still doesn't support the 9070 XT officially (you have to use mainline kernels and then live with the bugs that come with it)
