Depends on how long you’ve been working. After some amount of time like a year or two you can drop it into a conversation when helping a person “oh, I actually use libre office so I’m not sure where MS put that, let me check” and if they want more info they’ll ask. Sometimes they might be surprised that you can actually do this stuff on Linux.

In software as long as its not rushed you can quote something, fix it in 10 minutes and deliver it the next day and people will be amazed you finished it in under a day.

First pick a desktop environment, currently KDE, Gnome and Cinnamon are the best.

• Gnome: Opinionated design like apple
• KDE: tons of options.
• Cinnamon: A bit fewer options than KDE but still a lot.

All of them are very robust and have a massive user base.

Then pick a base to operate on. Fedora, Ubuntu and Mint are all good options.

• Fedora and Ubuntu are good for newer hardware and 99% of the time just works.
• Mint just works all the except for newer hardware.

Nvidia GPUs are not a big issue but you have to install the proprietary driver yourself for best performance and fewest bugs.

My pick for you is something your friend uses if you have a friend on Linux otherwise Fedora KDE or Kubuntu.

Iceland mentioned 🇮🇸

Fuck I just discovered Kneecap from the song “Get your Brits out” that was featured on the show Guinness. They did a collab with one of my fav drum and bass artist Sub Focus with “No comment” and it’s an absolute banger.

I speak/understand Spanish, Icelandic, Dutch, Arabic and German but I ended up listening to Estonian music for a bit and they have some bangers there.

Also, fun note, for a country og 400k Iceland has 3 entries here.

Looks good, I’m going to try it out. I’ve almost good a complete zero mouse setup on my computer and i only use it for websites. I go as far as to use the terminal to connect to BT headphones and to play/pause music.

Revanced is alive and kicking guys.

I’m really interested in a tiling VM such as hyperland but I really like all the features of KDE. The latest release is absolutely massive and comes with “Save current theme”

Yeah, but the landscape is pretty harsh for AA games right now. They could easily milk the IP they already have.

The bar was so low. Shadow of the Colossus remaster would have made bank.

I would buy a shadow of the colossus remaster and pay for a DLC for more bosses.

Besides what other people said, manjaro breaks regularly.

I work remotely from a different country so I don’t really have a choice but I’d show up to work 1-2 times per week because they offer free food and see the people I’ve been working with the past 4 years.

That being said, I love the fact I don’t have to commute, chats and calls always have a main agenda but we also chat about games, movies etc. occasionally. I can work uninterrupted most of the day

Honestly, if they make it with upgradable RAM, M2 SSD and GPU you’re essentially buying 1 and getting gen 2 and 3 for 50% off.

Just as a side note that gas power plants capture two types of energy, both the expansion of the burned gas and the heat. This is why they’re now more popular for new builds than oil.

Everything in Debian just works, but people are looking for more features than Debian offers out of the box.

I can see why people would want Debian if they’ve been burned couple of times by distros that move very fast and break stuff.

Like ham and cheese in a restaurant.
