Admit it /g/, the reason you prefer using Mint over Ubuntu is because Ubuntu is a terrible name and sounds niggerish(ubongo). You know it's one of the reasons if the not the main one, admit it.

Stock GNOME is completely unusable for me, it's so primitive. I have to install like 10 extensions and edit dozens of dconf settings to make it even somewhat usable.

Why would I waste my time doing all that, when I can use a system (Mint) that works basically out-of-the-box the way I want?

Nixos. All others are for enterprise or retarded shitters that think ricing makes them a programmer. Notable mention is arch, specifically used by trannies who are shitters.

I'd say Arch due to it's wide support for damn near anything you want/have, and it's lightweight base.
But I am a bit biased.
>>
>>107690016
Stable, rolling-release, binary-based. Pick two, then install Arch, Debian, or G***oo.

This is not the time to be buying computer parts. Everything is being sucked into the black hole of AI datacenters.

Epomaker EK21 or buy an 8bitdo numpad and run it off a wire. EK21 is debateably a better buy for wired-only since it also comes with a knob, a more standard key layout (8bitdo has a small + key) and VIA/VIAL compatibility. 8bitdo is a similar price range, has a calculator built in, but it can't be remapped or have macros bound to it.

I was watching total recall and the whole concept kinda made me think.
Why aren't memories copyrighted?
Let's use an example here; let's say I own an amusement park. People pay admission, ride a coaster and leave. But they still have those memories in their head of that time were on a roller-coaster outside of the parkt.
To me that's theft, they are basically reliving those memories rent free. So here's my question what would be a means to put digital rights on experiences like that?

desu if push comes to shove and the robots have somehow taken over everything except actual back-breaking labor i'd rather do sex work instead. im just not built for manual hard labor. i feel like sex robots can get really good but never offer the exact same experience as people
>>
>>107690141
But there's only so much manual labor people can do. Are we going back to building ziggurats and pyramids, this time because there will be not enough manual labor demand for all dislocated workers?
>>
>>107690192
I mean in such a hypothetical most people would probably be working on building data centers for Grok v2973 (they moved to a daily release schedule after it started improving itself) or something like that. The vast majority of human labor would be spent on just building out more infrastructure for a better AI. Though it's hard for me to conceive of a scenario where it's still not feasible to automate hard labor after Grok 20 or something.

Reminder of the following:

1. Google will merge ChromeOS and Android to form a FOSS Linux-based desktop OS that will be 100% free to download and use.

https://www.androidauthority.com/aluminium-os-android-for-pcs-3619092/

2. Windows will be severely affected by this new, totally free competitor and will bleed marketshare.

3. All existing Linux desktop environments will be totally outclassed by Google's top secret desktop UI and underlying OS. Even Linux users will give up on shit like Mint and just use Google's desktop for their daily driver OS.

2026 will finally be the year of the Linux desktop, and it will be because Google will do to desktops what they did to phones.

You know it's coming. Don't act like this was a surprise.

Okay, I'm still going to use Mint Xfce. What's google doing to do, force me to install their spyware on my computer?
>>
>>107690228
Ok.
That won't happen, google can't magically make a better desktop then everyone else. More liekly they'll just reuse chromeOSes UX with some of Androids and it will be utter dogshit so people will end up using kde, gnome or whatever else if they care not to use the web browser os like chromeos.
Windows will certainly stay in market given Microsoft's foothold on enterprise, lesser; consumers.
Google shit isn't worth it since it will just be a rehash of chromeos and even if not functionality of aluminum would need to compete with better options given the free space that linux is. KDE's window management is top class, to a scary degree they even outclass windows with power toy.

KDE will be rendered useless in a matter of years since so many people will use the Google desktop instead.

>>107690272
I'm afraid KDE and LXQT are also on the chopping block.

>>107690273
Mint will just give up and use Google's desktop, if they still exist in 2030.
>>
>>107690275
>That won't happen, google can't magically make a better desktop then everyone else.
They just have to make a better OS for free, like how Android destroyed all the other smartphone OS's. Why deal with Windows when you can run Google desktop for free?

noob question for a fresh install: do I need additional graphics drivers for linux mint to get maximum performance with an AMD card or should amdgpu be sufficient? reason I ask is that it's not displaying an option above 60 fps in desktop settings and the monitor can do well above that.

You can use TPM with Linux but AFAIK it's all very advanced and there's no established use cases, yet. You may also want it when passing it thru to a VM for example.
>>
>>107690225
Yes, I know it can be used but you're right, nothing uses it by default. You may as well disable it if it's causing issues. You'd know if you needed it.
>>
>>107690206
Does the monitors EDID correctly advertise its supported frame rates? Usually this is nothing to do with drivers it's just Linux being extra strict about only enabling supported modes. You can still manually add custom modes to Xorg.conf (won't work for the experimental Wayland session though and since the Mint Devs are shit at building a compositor the only option there is making a custom EDID and passing it to the kernel command line).
