Or “wyrewolwerowany rewolwer”

My classmates and I played around with that one a lot back in primary school – I think I once managed to say “wyrewolwerowany rewolwerowiec wyrewolwerowuje wyrewolwerowany rewolwer” without skipping a beat.

Yeah I thought I was seeing things but nope, actual E.Y.E meme. I still need to 100% it

Linux Mint install one of the hull it on the way do i dont trust them om

The only RGB I have is a tiny module in my mouse’s scroll wheel, and that’s it. I didnt realise the mouse had that module when I bought it and I was quite irritated because of that but I’ve grown to actually like it.

On another note, I’m using an old keyboard that’s basically at death’s door because it seems like it’s literally IMPOSSIBLE to find a good keyboard without RGB in it. It’s insane.

You see these in Poland every now and then, just with an actual central hole. I remember seeing these in my school, we used to call it srajtaśma (“shit tape” is the best translation I can think of), and it was just as bad as you described it. It also had a very particular smell to it.

I’ve been using proton for a few months now with a yearly Mail Plus subscription and I have yet to receive an actual spam e-mail. Your experience might be different than mine since I take precautions not to invite spam in the first place, but even then, Proton looks to be doing an excellent job

Yep, that’s how they work on my T440. It’s quite convenient even if I don’t trust them to stay in at times (one managed to fall out already)

Apps - Photo editing and 3D CAD are the main areas I’ve struggled with on Linux

Yeah, I feel that. Paint.net is the sole reason I still fire up my Windows VM every now and then.

The closest you can get is Pinta and even then, looking at the surface things may seem very similar, but the workflow is totally different (it doesn’t even have overscroll god damn it!) and the plugin scene is deader than dead. I wanted to code a proper replacement based on Pinta, but I haven’t got the motivation or time for that.

If I wanna edit an image, firing up a VM is still genuinely faster than trying to work with Pinta or GIMP or any other opensource alternative for that matter. Krita has surprisingly been pretty good at replicating the workflow, but it still falls short.

The polish side of the internet has a few hidden gems like that. This one’s from 16 years ago. krzyk pterodaktyla (pterodactyl’s scream)

Weird, the software manager (using LM 21.3) reports 1.1GB dl, 2.4GB installed (which is different from when i checked yesterday for some reason?). flatpak install reports around 2.1GB of dependencies and the package itself at just 1.3MB

EDIT: nvm im stupid, the other reply explains the discrepancy

It CAN get pretty wild sometimes, though. For example, Flameshot (screenshotting utility) is only ~560KB as a system package, while its flatpak version is ~1.4GB (almost 2.5k times as big)

For the past few years, I just install the latest stable version of anything I use and never bother touching or tweaking anything … never had a problem since.

And that’s exactly how I’m trying to approach everything after the reinstall. I like tinkering with my system, but after a couple months it really starts messing with everything.

It’s funny seeing this like literally a couple days after I decided it would be easier to reinstall my Mint sysyem than to fix the audio issues Pipewire was causing. I’m back on PulseAudio and haven’t had issues since.
