  • Which distro is closest to 'GUI/UX for everything, absolutely no CLI' approach like Windows or Mac + and just works (ie passes LTT Linux test)

  • OpenSUSE Tumbleweed has a GUI for almost everything. It has a nice GUI for basic system config, and uses YaST2 for deeper settings, and it uses Discover for Flatpaks as well as system library updates.

    Although, I have seen a couple people say Discover shouldn't be used for doing system updates because it can fail, and to only use it for Flatpak updates and installs. I dunno. But it's not like typing sudo zypper dup to do a distro upgrade is hard, so I just do that out of an abundance of caution.

    OpenSUSE has some other cool features too, like having Snapper installed by default for system snapshots. It's pretty easy to roll back if an upgrade goes sideways. There's a boot entry that lets you open a previous snapshot as read-only and then you can make that snapshot permanent by creating a new top-level snapshot from it. So then you can at least use your computer while you try to figure out why the upgrade you did failed.

    You'll probably want to use KDE as your desktop environment. It'll be somewhat familiar if you're use to Windows, and it has a lot of features that make it comfortable to use.

    There are lots of good YouTube videos on why OpenSUSE is pretty cool. Check some out.

  • I don't mean your clothes or your body, I mean the humidity. Wind chill is so much worse when the air is dry.

  • This meme makes no sense. Dry cold is worse than humid cold.

    Edit: I mean the air, not your body or clothes. Wind chill is so much worse in dry air.

    The example screenshots all look gimmicky (heh) or super advanced scientific image processing.

    I guess noise reduction is useful to the average user. Depends on how good it is.

  • A Steam Deck Has Been Turned Into A Steam Machine

    Jump

  • Now, Tom doesn't recommend actually doing this, since it really doesn't improve any performance and takes away the portability of the Deck, but it is a nice way to "revive" a Steam Deck that doesn't work anymore.

  • Bought a 3DS XL last year

    Jump

  • Does that really matter, though? It was designed to be cheap and rugged for kids. It still functioned as two screens.

  • DS and DSi were basically one console.

    3DS and its variants were the second gen. 2DS was a 3DS with no 3D and no hinge, made for kids. 3DS XL was just a larger version. "New" 3DS was a power upgrade plus a new right stick for games that were a little too much for the base console.

    It was a glorious line of handhelds, and I wish the Switch had never been invented, leaving the portable 3DS line still valid. I would love a new one.

    There are all kinds of active and passive cooling suits.

  • I tried to use it for help in Fallout 3 recently. I didn't want spoilers, so I didn't want to just use a walkthrough or wiki that often just tells you the answer and stuff you didn't want to be told. I thought it would be clever if the bot could tell me little clues to questions like, "Is the key I need even in this building?"

    It made up such insane things! Like, "The NPC who carries the key is a ghoul mamed Chlamydia Jane. She's located at such and such."

    Chlamydia. Jane.

    Some robot had the key. He was in a small room I missed.
