Yeah but this is a literal nobody coming into the market and pulling almost half the sales numbers as the single biggest franchise in the world with near 30 years' worth of brand recognition. That's still got to be somewhat of a wakeup call.

Disagree on picking RPM distros for an absolute beginner (this is what the image is about at least). SUSE maybe but you don't want a newbie having to deal with US patent bullshit and especially SELinux. Similarly, no newbie will ever pic a barebones WM as a first time user.

Aye.

The lawsuit you're referring to is about a poor old woman who got second degree burns, took McD to court and won, all while being slandered by the media for being some litigation happy grifter. Just saying.

Even IT people don't give a shit about security until it's way too late. Source: getting out of a job where the median age of a server is around 3-4 years old with no updates and runtimes hard installed outside repositories.

It's slightly different though. The PSOne was a post-PS2, cut-price version for the low end market. Same for the NES' second version and more (360 E, PS2/3 Slims, Wii Mini, etc.). The PS4 Pro was the first real mid cycle performance upgrade we got IIRC (aside from the PSP getting double the ram mid cycle, I guess).

If it's just the dirty flag (it was uncleanly unmounted) you can try

ntfsfix -d /dev/sdc1

Still probably better to boot into Windows and let it deal with it (ntfs tools are still reverse engineered stuff after all), and check journalctl before doing it, but it works in a pinch.

I had a quick go at it yesterday (the latest 535 broke DDC CI for one of my monitors, making plasma-powerdevil unable to start) and for whatever reason KWin ran at something like 3 seconds per frame. No that's not a typo, I mean it. I hope it's fixed before it gets to Arch's repo.

EDIT: It works! I had to switch to the DKMS driver (the main one isn't in the repos yet) but other than that my Wayland session didn't die a horrible death. Well smooth. I still didn't test much, but at least night light works.

It's because it's bleeding edge, extremely well documented and extremely popular. Bleeding edge is exciting and you're gonna end up on the arch wiki anyway regardless of distro, so you may as well go to the source.

Do mind though it doesn't mean it's easy, like at all, and I fundamentally agree, there's a million better choices for first timers.

Stallman was right all along.

He's decent enough to follow, but honestly his content is kinda mediocre. It's mostly reading off news of off aggregators, distro reviews (I don't really distrohop...), opinion pieces, and very surface level UI UX stuff (which is what he's passionate about, after all), mixed with the usual tuber tropes like padded top X lists, clickbaity titles and the like.

I don't even mind the clickbait, as a positive example I find NetworkChuckCoffee's videos interesting for example, despite having all the tropes. Much more of a "get shit done, learn things" type of approach, enough to dip your toes in any given concept, so then you can go off and understand it, learn it and add it to your toolbelt. Useful.

Insanely clickbait title too, when the NP2 is barely 1/4th of the video and only a "design reveal".
