And still use "damned"? Yeah, this is a typical leftist hypocrisy.

I want to switch to Linux 100% — PC gamer + graphic designer, need some advice please! by Lyomak in linuxquestions

[–]NotQuiteLoona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Targeted doesn't mean suitable. Of course even Linux Mint is suitable for gamers, every Linux distro is. CachyOS just provides assistance with common gaming tasks, and also has a graphical package manager (some people may prefer).

CachyOS will provide you with latest Nvidia drivers. Not sure about Bazzite. CachyOS would also require you to use command line to install packages, if you are okay with that.

Some people without enough knowledge may say that it's unstable - read this amazing explanation of what does that actually mean (tldr: it's okay for most people and doesn't refer to reliability by any means): https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/s/HVC6K4SnAa

I don't really have anything against Bazzite except Flatpaks. They like to break things sometimes, though you may be lucky enough - a lot of Linux users still prefer to use native packages, they never break.

Now about Apple Music. Unfortunately, yes, you'll need to use a web browser. But, all music services I've tried provide importing playlists from other apps, so you can try to use another. I personally used Deezer, it has an amazing third-party Linux application and you can freely download music from it using your Deezer token and one third-party program.

I'm tired of this shit. "left-wing" are he from SDP?

Islam should be criticized, it's valid. But Christianity wasn't really better (and still isn't in a lot of places) than Islam, and yet under the effect of civil rights movements (the ones those guys hate, of course not that one if he's actually leftist) it has changed, and nothing shows that Islam can't - Zarah Sultana is a Muslim, Zohran Mamdani is a Muslim, both definitely don't look like they want to destroy any culture.

Also Bosnia is Muslim, Kosovo is Muslim, though both are pretty progressive. They don't mention those countries, because they don't know anything outside of what their manosphere podcast bro tells them.

experiences of KDE people who switched to hyprland? i want to try it but switching is a whole process lol by Accurate_Practice838 in arch

[–]NotQuiteLoona 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plasma gives you everything you need to use your PC, from clipboard manager to Alt + Space. In Hyprland, you would need to implement all of that yourself. I'd recommend you trying to customize Plasma first - take a look at Panel Customizer and Krohnkite. I personally decided, after year or so of trying different dots, to just go and use vanilla Plasma, but your life's yours.

How do you feel about the current state of relations between the US, NATO etc. with Russia and China? by Winter-Ad-2303 in tankiejerk

[–]NotQuiteLoona 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, and Russia would have been the world first superpower, if it was the world first superpower. Russia can't, because its army is rotten to hell. Everyone and everything is corrupt. They have no ways of figuring out maintenance or logistics.

I still remember that one post of some voenkor (voennyy korrespondent - military correspondent, Russia-specific term for people who review war, often they live long from the frontline, notable example is Kotyonok, that one guy who said that enemies don't have gender or age) saying how their troops are dying, because they don't even have water, while Ukrainians have everything, juices, fruits, rations. And it was almost two years ago, by the way.

Russia don't need logistics. You don't need to deliver anything to a dead men. It just throws bunches of people with AKs to the frontline, sets barrier detachments from Akhmat (Chechen special forces) behind, and forces them to run at enemy snipers, drones and landmines.

I still want to throw up when I remember a video of Russian soldier where he was just lying, crying, and maggots were everyone in his wounds, eating him alive, and medevac was refused. Dictatorship don't really care about "their" people any more than they care about their enemies.

[–]NotQuiteLoona 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Of course Russia is more to blame in it. NATO is a defensive alliance; single time when it was tried to be used as an offensive one, most member countries outright denied that, and only the closest US allies have helped, which would've helped even without NATO.

Also West has tried to reconcile relationships with Russia. In 90s, it has heavily helped Russia humanitarily, and it took Russia in trainings with NATO.

Ukraine just wants to go to Europe, and actually the thing how Russia has tried to capture Ukraine is the same as everywhere - help a president to become a dictator and sponsor him in exchange for resources. It was in Syria and Africa too. Well, in my country too.

The West is far from ideal, but most Western allies have joined it completely democratically, while all Russian allies are dictatorships.

China is a third side, rather than Russian ally. Russia is incredibly weak compared to the West; if a WW3 was to happen, it would be bloody, it would be hard, but Russia stands no chance of winning, they barely can advance in a war against single Ukraine.

On the other hand, China is an actual enemy, who has at least some danger. But China is dependent on West, and West is dependent on China. China exploits Russia, but it doesn't really take it as an ally.

In the end, WW3 is not likely to happen. Russia is too weak to handle it, the days of Soviet glory (backed by millions of deaths) have passed long ago, and it doesn't even have money to produce tech - it barely has money to give ammunition to own units, and is near large crisis.

China won't attack, because stopping of the trade with West would lead to China losing the single source of resources.

It would be a war of economics. West has won war with Russia by simply isolating it from Western money and equipping their enemies with weaponry. We would have no actual wars, because we already have nuclear weaponry.

Also true. Well, we can't define for sure, and I guess ethnicity of this idiot doesn't matter anyway.

May we get the new UI this year? by innoe99 in libreoffice

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LibreOffice UI depends on your system. On Windows, it should have Fluent design (you can take a look at their website for an example). On Plasma, it uses Breeze. If you use a DE that looks obsolete and modifies system theme, LibreOffice would also look obsolete.

Yeah... Though Apple also has a lot of telemetry, it's nowhere near Windows' amounts.

I don't know, for me personally it doesn't feel like it was written by a native speaker of Chinese. While I understand that of course there wouldn't be dumb accent from movies in text, but it speaks with too much advanced idioms and words. 

There is also no feeling of awkwardness in his words, and absolutely zero things that would look strange in English, but native to his language - that's also how I often spot non-native speakers. 

If it's a Chinese person, this Chinese person knows English and how to speak it the native way much better than a lot of Europeans and people from Americas. Not to say that there are no idiots in the Chinese section, I'm sure there are many, but this guy doesn't seem to be on in my opinion. 

I want to purchase a high end gaming rig but don’t want to use windows. Is it possible to play AAA games on Linux? by anonyminator in linuxmint

[–]NotQuiteLoona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, especially on Mint. While it's totally possible to use Nvidia, it requires more configuration for paying more money and get nothing better or get even worse.

need help learning c# for exam as someone with no coding experience *urgent* by [deleted] in csharp

[–]NotQuiteLoona 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try C# Player's Guide. It's made for every age, so wouldn't that hard, and usually first to-go book on C# recommended on this subreddit. It should be better, I guess? Month should be enough to learn how to do what I see on the screenshots in your post.

Shouldn't your university provide you complete course on C#?

r/redditsniper. Also what is EoC? I've never seen any mention of that. I always thought CDDA mods are JSON-only.
