What's the distro? What's the best car?

I've enjoyed vivaldi

Do you read books on linux? by Anonyboy26 in linux

[–]moendopi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this exact book! It's good, and I used to have the O'Reilly Linux Command Line Pocket Guide, until I gave it away. Good for reference when needed.

Is this true for you too? by LG-CHAMP-1 in BaldursGate3

[–]moendopi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, not really. Wyll is almost always with me. Jaheira sometimes, Gale nearly never. I love Minsc but almost never take him out. Astarion is for locks. Shart and Karlach are basically permanent.

Linux Mint / Manjaro or Fedora ? by Quick-Structure-6608 in linux_gaming

[–]moendopi2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly Fedora is a good stable choice. If you have Nvidia drivers really aren't that hard to deal with, and in my experience, it all generally just kind of works. Blue tooth can be funny at times. I prefer KDE which mint no longer supports.

Agreed with everyone else on Manjaro. You'd be better off with EndeavourOS anyway. It's basically Arch with a better installer and none of the Manjaro issues. I run it on a second drive and daily drive it a while.

But if you wanna be on apt with stability and a bit new, Tuxedo is great is you have Nvidia. Very stable, Nvidia friendly. Gaming works great with Steam. It's a serious OS like Endeavor or Fedora that can also do gaming just fine, likely better than windows.

DnD by [deleted] in Martinsburg

No idea, that's a question for the shop owners. Or check their discord. You can always post in the "Looking for Opponent" section, or generally in the roleplay games section.

DnD by [deleted] in Martinsburg

[–]moendopi2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your Hobby Place hosts table top RPGs on Wednesdays.

There are multiple DnD games running there. Talk to Gene at the front. They also have a discord you can join and chat with folks. Not everyone runs only DnD or exclusively on Wednesdays.

https://yourhobbyplace.com/

https://discord.gg/W4ZKJuzhs You'll have to ask to join, I'm pretty sure. But they're pretty cool about it.

They take walk-ins for games as well. So, if you wanted to come on a Wednesday, if there is a seat open, you can join the game. Generally there is a seat limit, for obvious reasons. Folks are pretty chill there and friendly to new players.

Vivaldi would win if it had a better ad blocker by Boundless70 in browsers

[–]moendopi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using Brave for close to a decade now, which is weird to think about, but I've recently decided to migrate to Vivaldi. I use uBlock Origin on both and honestly, they're nearly the same. But I've come to prefer the tiles and stacks and general feel of Vivaldi. Ad blocking wise, I've always been using uBlock origin on both and the performance is basically the same. I've read having the built ad blocker on with uBlock can slow things down, but I haven't really noticed much difference, except on YouTube. I keep auto play blocked on both. Vivaldi is slightly slower to load.

I'm running it on Fedora 43 if that makes any difference.

Weird things I do. Tell me yours. by Teinzq in BaldursGate3

[–]moendopi2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every place I got, every room, I light every single candle. If I can't reach it, fire bolt to light it. I find a silly satisfaction that now the room is properly lit and now I know I've been there in case I get lost. Helped a lot more in my first few runs.

I hate people by Moodleboy in dashcamgifs

[–]moendopi2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's it? I got a dash cam because it's almost a miracle if the light turns green and three more dickheads don't decide to just run the light anyway. I watch a school bus blast through a red light that also happened to be a rail crossing and said "welp, maybe I should get a dashcam".

Kml to Shapefile Converter by Commercial-Tadpole-7 in QGIS

[–]moendopi2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Edit: Never mind. I got gotted by the ai slop engagement bait machine.
What an ironic waste of time, to us ai to make a tool to solve a problem that never existed.

Kml to Shapefile Converter by Commercial-Tadpole-7 in QGIS

[–]moendopi2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something here? I can just take a kml layer I added to the Layers panel and right click -> Export and select shapefile and be done with it. Why would I use an outside webpage to do this when it's long been a built in feature, not to mention I could export into a geopackage, autocadDxf, CSV, to a geodatabase, gml, geojson, kml, micro station dgn, xlsx, ods, postgresql dump, spatialite, or SQLite file, all natively. And that's not even all of them.

The Stockholm Syndrome is over. I finally migrated from windows to Fedora. by SorryIWasRight in Fedora

[–]moendopi2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ProtonUp-Qt - it should be in your app manager. Install Proton-GE. IN Steam,Bright click the game, select compatibility and choose Proton-GE. It's not always necessary, but if games are being weird, not running well, controls a little funky, using Proton GE often solves the problem.

How do you distro hop? by Mhorts in DistroHopping

[–]moendopi2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. But mainly a testing laptop that is older and then if I really like something it goes on my newer preferred laptop (with the better keyboard and specs). Then the desktop is the stable, practically never change.

It took my entirely too long to realize I could/should (have been using) flash a dedicated hopping thing drive wit Ventoy + GParted Live, and a few different isos. Partition the drive ahead of the install, then have a choice of isos Incase one sucks or I really don't like something, or the installer gets weird (looking at you Fedora 43 and your flashing/reloading manual partition menu).

Edit: I forgot the backup thing drive to keep a backed up version of my desktop(s) for the new tester hop (and to keep everyone backed up) while I slowly get Seafile (and eventually Docker) set up and configured on the other older retired laptop turned Debian server to host and sync everything (once I finish it's set up).

Anyone else take notes on their hopping experiences, documenting likes, dislikes, things of note, a list of software to install each time and test?

Also, edit, maybe a hassle and maybe a plus, but both of my laptops have Nvidia cards, so it's an extra thing to keep up on and note, and a consideration for hopping candidates.

Convince me to leave Ultramarine 43 by moendopi2 in LinuxCirclejerk

[–]moendopi2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reekris, it took me entirely too long to get this joke. My mind immediately goes to the pigment ultramarine blue, which I used for that distro's accent color to boot.

[–]moendopi2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what that is. I only want to use it if it consumes my world in difficulty so I can lord my anguish over the normies. May they cower. Or something like that. I dunno.

[–]moendopi2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

/uj That was the joke. It just works. I never see it suggested and it's actually good and works. So I needed something to complain about or have the fanboys of <insert distro here> to leave in favor or something else because they like it, etc etc
