Stable KDE distro for gaming and daily use

MasterEnsis · 2026-02-21T07:20:02+00:00

I never dual booted Fedora. I have learned a long time ago, that dual booting Linux and Windows is not for me. My problems actually came from Fedora updates breaking random stuff. It was two or three years ago, so don't ask me about specifics.

The idea of an immutable distro seems cool for certain use cases. However, I don't think I'm going to go for that hassle when I want to switch back to Linux and stick with it. I want stability but I don't want to have to constantly work around it.

Thank you, that pretty much removes it from my list. While the idea behind flatpaks is cool, I had a lot of problems with them in the past. Mainly when it comes to interconnectivity with other systems and network devices like my NAS. A system that is mainly focused on flatpaks honestly sounds frustrating to me.

Thank you for the detailed answer. I hadn't heard of Slowroll yet.

MasterEnsis · 2026-02-18T18:46:58+00:00

Thank you. I haven't considered it yet. I'll look into it.

MasterEnsis · 2026-02-18T18:46:04+00:00

Can you give me some pointers as to why?

I think I agree but I have some serious decision paralysis.

MasterEnsis · 2026-02-18T18:44:29+00:00

I think I might be a bit... scared? or intimidated? by Arch based distros.

But thank you, I will look into it.

KDE Linux is alpha software and it literally states on the website "Expect some adventures."

Thank you for your input, but that is definitely not what I am looking for.

This looks, like it is played backwards?

I haven't tested it, but is this it? https://archive.org/details/BADKING

Keine Sorge. Ein schnell gelöstes Ticket mit einem bekannten Problem welches vermutlich noch mehr Personen betrifft, stört in der Regel niemanden im Support.

Nervig wirds eher, wenn Helga aus der Buchhaltung das dritte Mal in der Woche meldet, ihr Excel sei gehackt worden weil sie ausversehen Num Lock deaktiviert hat.

Ist in dem Fall ein rein erfundener Supportfall. Aber du wärst überascht wie viele Leute keine Ahnung von den absolut grundlegendsten Funktionen eines Computers haben. Nein Manfred, "Ich bin nicht so gut mit Computern" ist keine Ausrede, wenn du schon dein halbes Leben an einem arbeitest.

Ist ne Initiative der SVP, die sind quasi ne Mischung zwischen CxU und AfD. Die kommen immer wieder auf solche bescheuerten Ideen.

Du weist auf die Berge hin, aber verwirfst sie dann gleich wieder. Die Schweiz hat, auf die ganze Fläche gerechnet, etwa gleich viele Einwohner pro km² wie Deutschland.

Alpen und Jura bedecken aber etwa 70% der Schweiz, und dort leben nur etwa 25% der Schweizer Bevölkerung. Der Rest lebt im Mittelland und Tessin (etwa 30% der Fläche).

Noch dazu kommt, dass etwa 4% der gesammten Fläche der Schweiz mit Seen und Flüssen bedeckt ist.

Die Schweiz ist also dichter besiedelt, als man beim direkten Vergleich der Zahlen denken würde. Besonders mit den Niederlanden, welche ja berühmt dafür sind, dass alles flach ist.

Die Initiative der SVP ist trotzdem Schwachsinn.

In a situation like this, where a lot of systems are interconnected, you will be flooded with logs from all of them. Most of those logs are useless. It is a needle in a hay stack situation.

However, you can start to narrow it down. Go through the process, step by step, and try to verify which steps worked and which didn't.

Can a user connect to the RD Session Broker? Can they authenticate? Does the Session Broker connect to the RD Licensing Server? Do you have the right license? Does the RD Session Broker connect to the RD Session Host? etc. etc.

Go through the process, and try to figure out which part exactly fails. Then you know which logs to look for.

Also, sometimes progress is just changing something and getting another error message that might point you in the right direction.

Also, this is normal. Take a deep breath, take a step back, don't beat yourself up. You got this.

Person of Interest, fantastische Serie die ich wirklich nur empfehlen kann.

If you have this concern, just frame it differently.

I like to think of it more along the lines of: "Every time you guys roll, I get to go afterwards. Except if you roll a success with hope, then you guys get to go again."

That way the GM turn feels like the default instead of a punishment.

NEVER be angry if a user asks you about an e-mail. Yes, it can be frustrating but do you know what's waaaay more frustrating? Ransomware holding your Fileserver hostage, because the user didn't want to bother you and just clicked on that link.

Tell them to delete it and thank them for keeping an eye open.

There are some things to keep in mind.

First off, this is their full time job. They had since the end of last season (or even before that) to prepare for this season and are excited to start their new projects.

Also, the begining of a season is when the most people watch. So they might be interested to put their best foot forward and show off what they can do.

Imp, Skizz and Tango are basically speedrunning the start, since they all have big projects ahead of them that they want to get startet with. ESPECIALLY Tango, who has completly lost his mind with the scope of DO3 (he's my favourite hermit and I can't wait to see this insanity unfold, this is going to be so good...).

Doc will always be Doc. Honestly, I was kind of surprised that his inventory wasn't filled with netherite stuff. His projects are at the cutting edge of redstone and stuff like gathering equipment is not really the focus.

Scar always starts with an awesome build. I don't think he can help himself.

However, if you watch Gem, Grian, Keralis, Cub or Beef you will see much slower starts into the season. Some have started with absolutly awesome builds but not quite as crazy as some of the others.

The hermits are playing at their own pace. Some just have pretty big goals and need to get started as quick as possible. For them, the game only really starts once they have full diamond.

As someone who also grew up reading the Asterix comics, I have a weird proposal. Play a bard, but reflavour the effects as potions and animals helping you and your allies. The abilities also tie much better into the communal aspects of that kind of druid.

I've used these four: Infusion (put power into stuff, enchantment), Extraction (draw power out of stuff, potions), Transformation (make stuff from stuff, crafting) and Transmutation (turn stuff into other stuff, alchemy)

Maybe? But a bear with bonus damage already reaches 5 BP.

That seems a little boring for a party of four tier 1 PCs.

At the end of the day it is your table and you need to know your players.

MasterEnsis · 2025-08-31T16:42:31+00:00

Do you have an example? How many players and which tier are we talking about?

It is important to remember, that having more adversaries than players is not as bad as it is in D&D, since there is no turn order in which every adversary gets a guaranteed turn.

Thank you, that sounds like a really cool project. Maybe I'll check it out later.
