  • Linux hits 4% on the desktop 🐧 📈

  • That I don't know, I just know my territory in the US they are in every store that carries laptops.

    I believe I have also seen them in Canada as well.

  • I know technically ChromeOS is running Linux under the hood but it has been so bastardized by Google that it looses the spirit of Linux that it shouldn't be consider the same thing. At least in my opinion.

  • Sure but at least from my experience if the desktop hardware doesn't support Windows we are already talking about a very obscure type of hardware that isn't going to be mass deployed to the general public that would affect this user agent statistic.

  • Not sure, but I’ll say that if you use ChromeOS, you’re much more likely to buy special hardware (Chromebooks) to run it on. Not many people download ChromeOS to run on their pre-existing computers.

    That is my point. Normal people are not downloading any OS and installing it on their computers. They are going to the local big box store or online store and buying a computer and using whatever that OS is preinstalled. In my neck of the woods those options are Windows, OSX and Chrome OS. There is no Linux computers at your local big box store. And I am sure you could find a Linux computer online if you specifically searched for it but Amazon is going to put the Linux computer on page 500 if you search for "Laptop"

    Valve’s Steam Deck comes with Linux by default

    Yeah the Steam Deck is the only thing the came to my mind that mainstream people would get that would have Linux pre-installed. However I can't imagine it is the steam deck is selling anywhere near the numbers to what Chrome OS computers are selling and also these numbers are based on web browsing. Are people using their steam deck to browse the web? I have a Steam Deck and yes Gaming is amazing on it however if I am being honest the desktop experience is terrible I don't know how they manage to make the on screen keyboard suck so bad. I would prefer browsing the web on my phone over the Steam Deck. The only way I would browse the web on the Steam Deck is if it was fully setup with a Mouse and Keyboard and External monitor.

    Granted this is all just based of my single experience and small corner of the world view point. Maybe Linux is poping off in other parts of the world like in India with a huge population base.

  • Hold on here how is Linux Desktop beating out chrome OS? Don't get me wrong I am totally onboard with Linux winning over chrome OS. But I just don't believe it.

    I can got to any local store right now and buy a Chrome OS computer. I can't say the same for Linux.

  • Nephele now supports S3 and file encryption

  • Thanks for the very detailed breakdown down between the two.

  • Portable workspace, what is the best solution?

    Jump

  • I don't like messing with people's computers settings. So any kind of bootable media is a no go for me.

    I personally just go with remote access to an always on system at my house. All I need is a web browser and Internet access and I am good.

    If your dead set on some portable stick of some kind. Why not just go with a small portable computer stick? You can just plug into an existing monitor keyboard and mouse and your on your own private system.

    Or another option less Linux is a Samsung smartphone. You can get HDMI adapters that will give you a full desktop experience using the phone. I played with it a handful of times and it seems to work.

  • A fork of NewPipe that implements SponsorBlock and ReturnYouTubeDislike

    Jump

  • That has been my experience as well.

    Not saying it is perfect but it does seem to be somewhat accurate.

  • Planning build: Power efficient headless steam machine, and later upgrade for AI tasks

    Jump

  • Maybe add one of those dummy HDMI or Display dongles so you don't need to connect a monitor and you can set the display resolution who whatever you want.

  • Friendly reminder

  • Can someone explain like I am 5?

    Is just just talking about 32bit processor support? Or are we also talking about 32 bit programs as well?

  • Whats your such opinion

    Jump

  • Believe is a powerful thing I would ague even if what you belief is wrong if that belief brings you peace it is not a false peace.

  • Whats your such opinion

  • Believing in God is about as realistic as believing the world is flat.

    That is a bad comparison IMO. We have piles and piles of hard evidence the Earth is round. Saying the Earth is flat is just factually incorrect at this point.

    But the existence of God. I would argue we have no hard evidence of God's existence nor do we have hard evidence that God doesn't exist. As far as science is concerned it is still a theory.

    On top of that what makes a god a God there are multiple definitions of a God. If simulation theory is correct and we are all just in a simulation would be people outside of the simulation be our Gods? Or if an extremely advanced civilization existed would they be Gods to us? Or If we as humans advanced enough could we become Gods our self.

  • How would you spend your final days on Earth?

    Jump

  • That is a hard one, honestly as someone who has been health all of their life I don't think I can comprehend what your going though and can't put myself in your shoes.

    Sorry this will be the most boring answer but personally I would spend my final days with my family and friends. I don't think it really matters what I do with them. We could go on a trip or say home and binge watch a TV show, go out to eat play video games whatever.

    I do think I would continue to try and figure out what is wrong with me. I am naturally curious and want to try and fix things or at least figure out the cause. I would probably grab a Steam Deck and play some games at the hospital. Kill two birds one stone.
