There are alternatives to these.

- Ghidra
- configure driver for my zenscreen in “alt mode”
- hugin stitching
- gimp w/ my wacom (I hate gimp tho)
- iterate over AI vibecoding my spec files for rpmbuild
- get an itch to try i2p or some other java bs project
- messing with projects like minimodem with FFTW3, lambdamoo object oriented MUD or OllyDbg’s paperback.
- downloading CAD for circuit design or 3D printing and giving up immediately

my Suse license expired and I stopped booting up my computer but I’m getting a new apartment soon so maybe I’ll get back onto pretending I’m a programmer again soon.

The adobe suite runs too.
Also davinci works just fine, in fact they have a native linux build that works better and has better performances/cuda integration.

Outside of games, I:
- Do online banking
- Browse the web (i.e. shitpost on 4chan)
- Listen to music
- Chat with friends
- Read manga/manhwa
- Watch anime
- Program for fun
- Edit photos I took through the week with Darktable

A few years back I owned a Scarlett and I was playing around with audio recording using Audacity, but I lost it when I moved.

Good enough for me. I don't do it professionally, but for art as a hobby I find it much better than any other one I could use. Photoshop takes up 50 gigs of hard drive space anyways, I don't need allat.

Not natively, you still need Wine for that which can come with its own issues. However Substance Painter and Substance Designer have had native Linux builds since before Adobe acquired Allegorithmic IIRC..
>>
>>109427438
wine is good, it sandboxes applications into it's own environment/registry/'filesystem'
>>
>>109427509
Does Wine support CUDA yet? A couple of Adobe apps make use of CUDA for GPU-accelerated processing.

none of the games run either. the games on the sojak's shirt are all using proton
>>
>>109427957
Good thing about running games in Proton on Steam is that it's usually a convenient one-click-to-run solution. When you're running general software in Wine you may have to undergo manual setup, determining which internal Wine dependencies you have to install to your WINEPREFIX (such as dotnet48 and etc.), tweaking configurations and manual diagnosis.
>>
>>109428006
there is absolutely no reason to ever use wine over proton. just add your photoshop to steam and be done
>>
>>109427892
iLok is the bane of my existence for this reason. So many music production plugins use it and it's frustrating.
>>
Chat, e-mail, view and edit documents, stream media, transfer files from le cloud and develop software.

Just like what most people use computers for, minus the last one. The goalpost keeps moving, and that's fine. Because I'd like a fully featured creative suite too.

But (You) are not a professional media creator. Even GIMP is bloated for your usecase.

I use my home PC as my study PC too. I need CAD for uni every now and then.
FreeCAD has been good enough for the few times I've needed it, usually just to design mounting plates or get an idea of how furniture will fit in a room. Just simple things.

I do wonder sometimes how much I could get away with reverting back to windows 7. Outside of gaymes and their spyware, it seems like only web browsing is the iffy thing. Half of the reports are either that its fine if you're not a retard and the other half say that evening opening a browser means you're gonna get raped by viruses
>>109427438
Is there a protondb equivalent for none games? The only adobe anything I give a fuck about is Photoshop 2023

explain what photoshop does that gimp cannot. hardmode: no crying about user interface (which has nothing to do with editing images)
>>
>>109432235
The interface you have to use to edit the images has a lot to do with the effort required to edit an image with a particular goal in mind, which has something to do with editing images. Things which are obvious is photoshop are a maze of bullshit in gimp because gimp sucks.
>>
>>109431365
Most programs will be stuck on an older version, so it's situational. For me the things I use every day I have no problems with, but I keep a W10 laptop handy for the few random things that need it.
You're not gonna get raped by viruses. If there is a bad enough vulnerability where that might happen MS will probably patch it even though it's out of support just like with wanacry. There are still a lot of machinery out there that cannot be upgraded from XP and 7 after all.

Nothing.
I used to tinker with distros and configs until I found a forever config.
I used to do hobby projects related to linux maintenance but LLMs killed all motivation. Why bother doing anything when you can ask an LLM, go have some tea and come back to a working solution.
Now I only play old games and scroll chinz.
