  • Skyrim ruins better on Linux in my experience, so probably yes

  • Just sharing my personal experience with this:

    I used Gemini multiple times and it worked great. I have some weird symptoms that I described to Gemini, and it came up with a few possibilities, most likely being "Superior Canal Dehiscence Syndrome".

    My doctor had never heard of it, and only through showing them the articles Gemini linked as sources, would my doctor even consider allowing a CT scan.

    Turns out Gemini was right.

  • Ventrilo was awful, having huge delay. Also no persistent chat.

    TeamSpeak is proprietary and required a license for more than 8 users iirc. Chat might have been persistent?

    Mumble was/is king in terms of voice chat. Open source, fully featured, strong certificate based security, best latency. It's used as backend in many big games, too. No persistent chat, though.

    We used IRC for chat and Mumble for voice like 10 years ago when I played Eve Online. Works great!

  • You can be dangerous in traffic regardless of your vehicle.. A bicycle can easily reach those speeds downhill, but you still apply the brakes because going 2x speed of everyone else is hazardous, no?

    I don't ride irresponsibly, and I'm not about spend 600€ to replace the motor when I can just limit it and drive responsibly. It's up to the individual whether they wanna be a douchebag or not.

  • corporate greed

    There's no way YouTube is even remotely profitable even with the massive amounts of ads on the free version..

  • I pay for premium in a group of 6. We pay like 6€ each and get YouTube Music on top.

    People are too used to free stuff. The amount of bandwidth YouTube requires is absolutely mindboggingly huge and can't possibly be profitable.

  • Also motors are limited to 250W which seriously limits the danger.

    Mine is 750W still (from before laws were made, now illegal) and still can't accelerate fast enough to be dangerous, but without my limiter the top speed is like 45 km/h.

  • Sure, but then you're definitely not an average Windows user. I'm trying to get normal people off it

  • You make it sound like Fedora is a lot less stable than Arch. I've had one update go wrong in 10 years lol

  • People who have been using Windows their entire lives simply get intimidated

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Can you use Linux today without the terminal?

  • Skill issue

  • Contrarily, Win 11 does run Windows apps worse than ever

  • I say insane because Arch is very much not made to run without systemd, and you would need to make a lot of changes to make it work without it.

    So, as you say, just choose a distro without systemd

  • I didn't even know that existed until today

  • You can very easily rollback updates from cache, and even rollback all your packages to a specific date in time.

    It does get a bit iffy with AUR packages because you often compile them locally, so they would need to be recompiled from a specific commit.

  • Apt is one of the worst package managers I've used. Yum is also trash, dnf a bit better. But pacman is by far the best

  • Upgrading, like from Debian 12 to 13. It's too complex, and if you install anything out of the ordinary (which you have to if you want packages from this decade), things get even more complicated.

    I've used the same Arch installation for 14 years and only had issues when we switched to from sysvinit to systemd in 2012 because I didn't read the news. Easily fixable though

  • After using Arch for 13 years I just learned what archinstall is..

    Just install it normally, it's literally like 10 commands.

  • You mean "can you remove systemd"? Short answer: yes.

    Should you do it? Only if you're fucking insane.

    Just use Artix if you care that much

  • Reddit @lemmy.world

    Reminder: You can still use reddit from 3rd party apps
