If you download Bottles it has pre-fabbed Wine environments for certain software, including Fusion 360. I’ve used it occasionally for the last year although there seems to have been a recent update that’s killed it. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.

If you like Zorin and want to support it then just do it. Don’t let other people tell you to switch, more people should contribute.

I don’t understand the presidential library stuff (because I’m not from the US), does he get to keep the plane or does the next president get it?

I’m pretty sure there a lot of worse stuff that’s happened in the past 100 years, you just know how that ended.

I didn’t want to say this but I can’t help myself.

It’s addictive, not addicting.

I know but it’s cheap.

OneDrive works pretty well on Linux actually. Takes a few lines of config and there’s no GUI but it’ll sync a folder nicely and run as a service.

Is everyone posting about Oblivion simply new to it? Seems weird to me that everyone’s so excited about it but it’s probably just because I played it to death the last time it came round.

Lemmy isn’t a whole lot better. There’s still stuff you have to block straight away.

I think we’re moaning over nothing again here.

There’s already alternatives, why not just let them take over? Trump complained about the US giving up DNS, now he’s complaining about CVE. He wants to control everything but doesn’t want to pay for it.

People keep comparing AI to the likes of NFTs, the blockchain, and 3D printers. All of those were over-promised niche products but AI has already proven its worth.

They were all about what they could do, but AI is already doing it.

I’m not as against this as everyone else. If you want a AAA game without microtransactions, in-game advertising, and all the other bullshit you get nowadays, you’re gonna have to expect the company will want to make that money up in other places. Games have been like £50/$60 since the N64 days and we’ve been lucky that the prices haven’t risen with inflation.

I just installed openSUSE last night and I was thinking at the time about how crappy and dated the installer is. I mean, it does the job if you know what you’re doing but it certainly doesn’t even try to make it easy for anyone non-techie.

I’m not really a fan of Calamares, I think the whole concept of booting into an OS and then using it to install another OS is a bit weird and could confuse people.

I don’t think it’s ever going to happen without corporate backing. Maybe community run efforts can afford to have a few volunteers do some coding in their spare time, but volunteers don’t generally want to work on the boring stuff like the polish that users expect nowadays, and they’re never going to be able to run things like R&D, focus groups, etc, to get ahead of Fortune 500 companies. All they can do is see what works and copy, that’s basically all the community developed stuff has ever done.

Look at ChromeOS, it’s already got more users than Linux. If the Year of Linux ever happens it’ll look more like the Year of Chrome

According to the Wikipedia article they changed their mind and decided to stay on LiMux.

Imagine if you could go on the Nintendo store and buy a game you couldn’t even run, or had to check a third party website to see if it ran acceptably and let you use all the buttons.

I think people with 5mil could probably get in a lot cheaper.

SotN is one of my top five games but yeah, it is too easy. Don’t forget that when you finish it you’re only half way through.

If they know Siri’s shit then why can’t I have my power button back?
