yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is it safe to upgrade to paid version of a distro if I'm dual booting?196·6 days agoA paid version of Linux (almost) isn’t a thing. You can buy the install media, you can donate to a foundation, or you can subscribe for support.
If you’re paying for the software,
it’s not Linux or your being cheated. That’s weird and I didn’t know that.
yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux912·10 days agoThere is an unintended benefit to putting an obstacle between people who don’t know how to use the terminal and pasting code into it.
yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•What helps people get comfortable on the command line?4·12 days agoI am a Linux noob as far as the desktop goes. But I’m quite comfortable in the terminal because for years I’ve maintained a home server running Debian. After I install the OS, I unplug the keyboard and monitor and the only way to talk to that box is through SSH.
yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•I tried Debian, I tried Fedora for my Lenovo Legion 5 Pro RTX3060: Framerate issues, stuttering in browsers, stuttering in simple 3D programs1·12 days agoI went back to Windows10 so I could dual-boot with Secure Boot turned off. My system will dual boot popOS or Debian without issue. Just make sure to install windows first.

This command is much faster. Instead of random bits, it just marks everything zero (dude). Is good enough.
yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•What Linux software is good for managing a household budget?72·5 months agoYou should be able to do all that stuff with spreadsheets. Any program you use will be a spreadsheet under the hood anyhow.
yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Upgraded the CPU and now have GPU problems... any help?14·5 months agoIs it possible you plugged your monitor into the motherboard video output? (I’ve done this)
The real punch line is that in a cafe run by programmers, esoteric rules are in full force, but tables 0 and 1 are no where near each other.
Why is duplicate files a problem?
yesman@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux's New DRM Panic "Blue Screen of Death" In Action720·11 months agoOnce again, Linux is late with a feature that Microsoft not only has had for years, but is famous for.
There are workarounds to almost every issue you may have. You can run Windows in a VM for software that requires it, or dual boot. M$ Office can be ran in a browser now. There is no reason to buy a license, just DL windows10 direct from M$ and never register, all they do is lock you out of some display options and add a watermark to your desktop.
