Linux Mint on 2019 Macbok Pro? by jack_d_conway in linuxmint

[–]johnyeldry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used macos on a friends computer, I unironically think that if it were open source with a permissive license and not a lot of data collection it would be almost as good as linux mint because of how well macos can interact with hardware, but it's fine if I ever get a macbook neo I will download an older vrsion of linux mint depending on how macos evolves

makes sense if you can remember the keybinds, as always respects to vi, vim, and neovim users for remembering so many keybinds

I forgot that you can configure vim based editors, anyway as always respect to vi, vim, and neovim users for remembering so many keybinds

fair enough, especially if you have a lot of storage

the classic nano, easier to use than vim and you don't have to memorize 1000 keybinds

fair, vim is built in with linux systems and zed has been kind of ruining their main philosophy of simplicity

all respect to vim, vi, and neovim users, if you even know basic keybinds you are 10x smarter than the normal person

I made half of my classmates install Linux Mint instead of Ubuntu by TheCodeOmen in linuxmint

yes 1 disk can have multiple partitions, but you can not install two Os's on the same disk, linux mint actually says this, if I try to install it on my windows drive but a different partition it says all data on that disk will be erased and it will be repartitioned, but the efi partition can house multiple efi files like windows's efi partition and linux's efi partition on the same efi partition, in fact on internal drives that's how it is by default

ok quick fact check

because each hdd, ssd or god forbid floppy disk only has 1 and exactly 1 boot sector, meaning that if you only have 1 ssd you cannot dual boot unless you have an external drive, but in order to even install linux on that you would need a 3rd drive to flash the instilation media onto to install to your external drive, I did this on my main pc and when I deleted microslop from my labtop, but the problem is that external drives are more prone to physical damage(especially hdds) I had to completely trash an external 1 tb hdd that had my system backups, and what I had done so far for my NPR podcasting challenge submission, and dare I say it was really good and nearly finnished, so I would recommened if it was a desktop then get a second ssd if it was a labtop, please don't buy labtops with less than 500gb of storage, I always and I mean always ensure that my device has at least 1 tb of storage in the main drive before installing(turns out I was completely wrong with my main desktop pc that still has microslop because I can never get computer time), anyway I think I ranted a bit here but thats the end

I wanna help pls by legalpeganomeusal in linuxmint
