So the problem is crappy guides?

I was of the opinion that anything that suggested the terminal was purely for speed reasons.

Average Windows guide. Click here, dismiss the warning, click here, click here, close the advert, click next, type in 1, accept, reboot.

Average Linux guide, go to Gnome Tweaks, third option, type in 1, no reboot required. Or open a terminal and paste the following command.

It’s precise, it’s concise, and it’s fast but it’s not required.

the are so many desktop environments

I completely disagree. There is Gnome with 70% of the market, KDE with 30%, and then various hacked together desktops with <1%. Guides should be set up for Gnome because you stick with defaults if you are that scared, maybe a reference for KDE, and if you chose something else then your already in copy/paste commands territory.

There was no part of me setting up SteamOS on my couch PC that required a terminal, which is what we are talking about here.

Zero.

Steam doesn’t require any terminal opening, the hard part are shitty Windows games that pop up boxes to install extra stuff because for some reason they can’t install it when you install the game.

I haven’t been required to use the terminal for anything in years.

Honestly. I’ve been using Linux as my daily driver since the mid-2000’s (Warty Warthog?), and the only times the terminal gets opened these days is through pure choice. Maybe 10 years ago I would agree with you.

I’m running Linux for my couch based gaming and the experience is awesome. Much better than Windows ever was.

What makes you think that Linux is holding Linux back? The UI can be completely customised which makes Steam OS wonderful to use while Microsoft completely ban any customised interface out of the box.

Windows is only popular through inertia.

Funny jokes are welcome.

That was more the type of thing the annoying kid at the back of the class shouts out, where even their friends tell them to shut up.

I didn’t think that you were. I was criticising Notepad as a really shitty “editor”.

I personally set tabs to 2 spaces, but then thats the beauty of tabs over spaces. You can have two or four, or even eight if you hate yourself without impacting anyone else.

People who demand spaces are Republicans, they want to force their 2/4/8 space rule on you even if it is inconsequential.

Its funny that the argument against tabs is purely because someone once opened a file in a shitty editor.

jigantic

I read that as Jig-antic. I would have to turn it into jygantik for it to sound the same.

If Canonical folded, someone else could come along and reinvent everything on the server side. And that makes it Open Source?

Explain how this distinction matters in the real world?

Snap distribution is as much a part of snaps as Snapd.

Who cares that part of it is open source if other parts aren’t?

You might not.

My headphones have a USB c port and connects at USB 2 speeds.

Does the Series S support USB controllers? Could you not use one of those knock off USB PS controllers?

Oh gotcha. You mean before it went Dual Shock 3? Sorry I thought you were referring to the multiple iterations the PS1 had.

Advantage over Dual Shock 2 was that it was wireless, and I do appreciate that, but I completely agree that PlayStation layout is great.

I do like the Dual Shock 4 when on the computer, as the little touchpad on the front helps with SteamOS when dealing with shitty interfaces for 3rd Party Launchers that demand a mouse and keyboard.

If I didn’t encounter them occasionally then Dual Shock 3 all the way as I dont normally need any of the other “features”.

I’m not sure what you are referring to here. The Dual Shock 2 was the standard PS2 controller throughout its lifetime.

Do you mean the OG PlayStation, which had the standard controller, then the dual analogue stick, and finally the Dual Shock with the two analogue sticks plus rumble?

I liked the analogue sticks, loved Katamari. Rumble didn’t add enough.

Fedora is a good idea where you up at either the same way to the right has a party system.

Works fine for me.

I use it in combination with AR and CRT for good coverage. Might want to check that Flaresolverr is setup correctly.

We have joint and personal accounts.

Joint account for bills, if anything were to happen to me I would like her to be able to pay bills, or even see they exist to cancel them.

Joint account for salary deposit and a joint savings on it for covering our 3 months of bills.

Personal account for discretionary spending, each month we put some pocket money in each of our personal account to blow on beer/taco bell/whatever.
