I did enable multimedia codecs during installation. I checked to see if I had mint-meta-codecs and I did. I'm gonna give up and say its probably an issue with my CPU not being able to handle these high bitrate videos. The videos only played smoothly in mpv with my laptop plugged in. VLC refused to play the video, only displaying a black screen, though the audio was playing. Though I could've sworn that Fedora was able to play the video in VLC without needing to be plugged in...I'll check. I appreciate you even taking the time to help.

When you're dealing with a very convoluted list generation that can't be done with find or a bash one liner, you either can't use parallel or don't care about parallelism or tracking errors, and you also have GNU xargs, because every other implementation is cancer.

Guys I'm retarded, I swear I turned on the "sound events" option for GTK programs somewhere within the KDE settings but I can't find it anymore. It's really annoying hearing a "pop" sound when I press buttons on a GTK program.

>>107734690
>xargs is almost always the wrong solution.
xargs can fork processes up to defined limits like the CPU count, and batch inputs for said processes so you can use it to create a work queue, good luck doing that with a for loop.

I'd like to hear input from some people before I decide, I'm a noob.
I have a NAS on my home network that I use to store general media, and documents like medical stuff, taxes for backup and archival.

I'm currently on ext4 jbod 2x8tb, 2x16tb hdd. But, I want some redundancy in case a drive fails. Rollbacks in case of a mistake would be nice. I'm also clueless about the true usefulness of check sums for stuff like bitrot.

From what I've read, it seems like btrfs or ZFS would best suit me?
I'm on Debian 12, the system has a Intel i7-5930K (12) @ 3.700GHz, and 16gb of DDR4, 2400. 1gbe LAN, maybe 2.5gbe in the future.

It seems in ZFS, I would be able to raid1 2x8tb and 2x16tb and present it as one pool? I'd like to be able to add more disks naturally in the future too. Is there any hidden gotchas or somethig I should be aware of? It would seem ZFS is not within normal package distribution for Debian, I'm not sure if this is an issue. Would it be worth moving to another distro with native support for ZFS?

I don't know how or why so many /g/ users get the idea that adblock users are rare, every time we get reliable side-channel information about their usage like the recent YouTube view fiasco or Cloudflare reports the usage is extraordinarily high. It can only go in one direction, nobody ever googles how do I get the ads back. It's been years since I've seen anyone in real life not using one.

Skyrim with mods doesn't work on Linux?

>>107734112
I recently switched from Windows to Linux (Fedora), and I have to say it still isn't close enough for regular person's use.

For instance, I had several cases of total OS hangup due to 100%ing my RAM. That never happened on Windows because it comes with pagefile set up, and Windows seems to deal with maxed out RAM more gracefully in general.

Setting up a pagefile on Linux isn't difficult or anything, but it does require you to launch terminal, google/ask AI what commands are needed... also you need to install a program "neveroom" (or something like that) that will prevent Linux from locking up even if RAM+pagefile are both 100%d, and it somehow doesnt come preinstalled on a desktop distro.

So fixing the problem already demands of you to have a certain level of knowledge about computers. Normies won't deal with this shit. Linux is great but honestly the "normie friendly" distros still don't get it.
>>
>>107734186
Does anyone know if Wine or whatever wrapper/compatibility layer can run 16 bit programs?

Isn't that a major point of Windows still, being able to run ancient software? Or is nu-windows unable to do this?
>>
>>107735345
That's kind of your fault for installing Fedora. You should have picked a distro that holds your hand even more. When Linux users advocate Linux to tech illiterates, they should always recommend distros that are very friendly to tech illiterates and do everything out of the box.
>>
>>107735345
Even the Gentoo installation manual includes a swap partition in the default partitioning scheme as part of the standard installation instructions. Fedora has dropped the ball here but other distros don't forget something so basic. Or maybe you skipped a step during the Fedora installation? I dunno

Adobe Illustrator CS (the original.)

I had a copy of Illustrator 8 which worked fine on my old Macs, but I just bought my first OSX machine and it was a little buggy there. Bought the student edition of Illustrator then proceeded to use it for well over a decade until I did a major system update and it no longer supported PPC applications.
I've since switched over to Inkscape. Though I feel like I operate less efficiently, and can only do maybe 80% of what I used to do in Illustrator.

In 1988 the crime rate in the United States rises four hundred percent. The once great city of New York becomes a maximum security prison for the entire country. A 50 foot containment wall is erected along the New Jersey shoreline, across the Harlem river and down along the Brooklyn shoreline. It completely surrounds Manhattan Island. All bridges and waterways are mined. The United States police force like an Army is encamped around the island. There are no guards inside the prison. Only prisoners and the worlds they've made. The rules are simple: Once you go in. You don't come out.
