I honestly liked 8.1 quite a bit - once I installed Classic Shell to not have to deal with the new UI. A first year usability student could have foreseen the massive issues trying to weld a touch screen UI and a traditional desktop metaphor would raise, but Microsoft for some reason were completely pig headed about making it work. It didn’t. It can’t. You can not staple two completely different UI paradigms together and have it work smoothly. Other than that, 8.1 was remarkably good experience for me. It felt really snappy under the hood. Good OS brought down by hubris. Well, good for a Windows release, at least. Use Linux.
3.11 was pretty good. After that it’s been a mixed bag. A bag of shit, but mixed.
Is it though? Is it? Though?
Now does flatpak get it’s programs from the same place that terminal would?
I usually install Flatpaks from the terminal, but as to your question: no, the distro’s package manager and Flatpak have different repositories (servers with software packages) and formats. While distros like Fedora have their own Flatpak repositories, most people use Flathub. You can install apps as Flatpak on any distro that supports them, but native package managers generally don’t support other distros’ repositories.
for some reason everybody hates snaps because canonical owns it.
As I understand it, Snap server software is proprietary and doesn’t support independent repositories, so you have to install Snaps from Canonical. This is not exactly in line with Free (as in Freedom) Software principles. Canonical has done many questionable decisions in the past.
From quick reading, SteamOS 3.0 is only really available for the Steam Deck. As such, I would not recommend it for a desktop user. Earlier versions of SteamOS are no longer supported. Don’t take this as gospel, as I may be mistaken.
Still, I would personally suggest looking in to a more desktop oriented OS for now.
Looks great! Where can I download this theme?

I not too long ago played this game and, while flawed, found it to be a very decent game with a lot of potential. My biggest gripe personally is that it devolves from an engaging and clever stealth game to a mass murder simulator, and the main character isn’t terribly likable by the end. Still, I enjoyed it quite a bit and might even replay it some time.
[Richard Stallman] usually does not browse the web directly from his personal computer. Instead, he uses GNU Womb’s grab-url-from-mail utility, an email-based proxy which downloads the webpage content and then emails it to the user.
If you’re not doing this you’re not properly paranoid.
Aw yeah, I also love browsing the internet on meth!
I haven’t been able to solve CAPTHCAs in years.
It’s ok, I prefer my colon without Open Sores.
Rest in peace Terry, you crazy diamond!
Some time ago I also bought a PS5 and I regret it. It is absolutely not worth the hassle. Any benefits console gaming had are long gone.
Oh, fear not Ubisoft, I’m perfectly comfortable never owning any of your games again. Ever. Eat shit.
Idiots.
Oh that sweet, sweet confirmation bias hit. Nothing like it!
Live environments of most distros are not meant for long term use. You will lose all your changes on boot, since they exclusively run on RAM and don’t save anything on the USB.
Now, running from USB can be done, but from my understanding, USB sticks are unreliable in the long term, since they start crapping themselves from frequent write operations. There are distros designed to run from USB, like Puppy Linux, but it does come with caveats. I’d say no, it’s not worth it unless you know exactly what you’re doing and why.
