My 2¢:

I think it's gamer discourse bleeding out into other fields. Gamers need the newest libraries and the newest drivers or their stuff might not run as well as it possibly could, because gaming is a relatively young but aggressively growing field with the Linux ecosystem in general. Sure games have always been around, but it's never been the focus.

Now that gamers are switching more frequently, and that the average user is likely to play a game occasionally, it's becoming relatively important that packages be up to date for desktop workloads.

GTKMM is also GTK--

GTK is the GIMP Tool Kit

GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program

GNU is GNU's Not UNIX

UNIX is UNiplexed Information Computing System

Ergo: GTKMM stands for G(NU's Not Uniplexed Information Computing System) Not Uniplexed Information Computing System Image Manipulation Program Toolkit Minus Minus.

GNU is a recursive acronym representing GNU's Not UNIX.

UNIX is a modified acronym representing UNiplexed Information Computing System (UNICS)

G(NU's Not Uniplexed Information Computing System) Not Uniplexed Information Computing System

In Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, any child can make an imaginary friend. Eventually it was canonized that teenagers could also create an imaginary friend. When an imaginary friend is created in universe, it enters the universe exactly as the imaginer imagined them.

The Meme is implying that teens are making imaginary friends (who have bodies and a physical form) for carnal, hormone fueled purposes.

Edit: I should specify, this was explaining the meme, and is actually not correct in reference to canon.

From what I understand Yugioh suffers from an extreme lack of keywording, meaning every mechanic used is explained on every card which uses it, because no keywords.

I'm not sure 'That's A Lot If Words' could win a game of Magic, but it could certainly win a Yugioh comp.

Sorry if thia type of question isn't allowed, I tried on AskPolitics as well but that comm looks mega dead so I'm x-posting here

Forgive me if I'm woefully misunderstanding how this all works.

If the government is shut down, and they can't reach an agreement to open it back up, what happens?

Short term? What does it look like in the coming weeks to months if no agreement is reached?

Mid-Term? Within the next year, if things are still all shut down, what happens to things like trade, tax payments, public services?

Long-term? If, worst case scenario, the divisions between the parties with power have grown so though they can't ever reach an agreement: what happens then? Is it an anarchist state? Do we have new coup attempts to take power? Does the US balkanize?

I'm not meaning to inject any sort of bias in my line of questions, I hope I haven't led anyone to any specific conclusions.

The training data contains lots of newspaper comics. Newsprint paper is high in acid and as a result yellows over time. Notice the piss comics are usually animated in an anacronistic style, using styles more similar to Older comics despite often being focused on modern life.

After a recent debate I had in a comment section about whether or not 2 gigs of RAM was enough for a modern workload, I started customizing to make it happen.

In my first screenshot (second in post body) you can see my specs in a neofetch and cpufetch output. I'm running a custom Kernel to bring my RAM usage as low as humanly possible while still maintaining support for all my hardware, I am on round 1 of kernel minimizing, only things I was 100% sure i didnt need have been removed. Round 2 will be removing things I might need but not frequently, I will be leaving a second kernel installed to access them.

GTK themes are listed because I have lxqt installed, I try my best not to use it though.

In my second screenshot (first in post body) you can see from left to right, top to bottom:

  1. Links with a DDG search
  2. offpunk browsing a gemlog
  3. turbo with a sample of my writing (it isn't good, I don't pretend to be a writer)
  4. a neofetch output
  5. discordo, called by a shell script that runs it with my bot token (self bots are against discord's TOS, do not make them, or do idgaf its your account)

I am using the Ultima theme (https://github.com/egorlem/ultima.zsh-theme.git) for Oh-My-Zsh

Terminal frontend is Sakura but I used Terminator to customize my terminal colors as Sakura only allows you to change your Background and Foreground colors.

Based on your last paragraph, you might fall in the supernoob catergory. You'll want an immutable distribution, you can't break those Unless you tell it to let you break it.

As a windows user, you'll find familiarity in Fedora Kionite.

If you prefer a touchscreen oriented experience consider Fedora Silverblue.

There's a few other options on the page I'm linking, I haven't tried and therefore can't recommend either of the others.

Edit 2, electric boogaloo:

OP in your post you state you want Wallpaper Engine to work, unfortunately, you'll have issues there. Depending on what you're trying to accomplish with wallpaper engine you may be able to do the same using KDE Plasma. I personally use a VLC command line call to enable animated wallpapers on my rig, there's not exactly a standard for it on Linux so many of the solutions you find will be clunky. Just remember if you go around messing with your xorg.conf file you need to have a backup of it so you can undo changes easily in a terminal.

You're welcome to DM me if you need assistance.

This is my programming and retro gaming rig. Running LMDE Faye and customized to look as much like the newer MacOS releases as possible (at first glance). The goal: a sleek, elegant system that performs better than elementaryOS.

Much work goes into making linux work completely on one of these boxes, I still haven't gotten my camera working (facetime-hd is a tricksy beast to install and have work) but otherwise I'm thrilled with the project.

Chassis: Macbook Air 6,2
Dist: LMDE 6 (faye)
Arch: x64
GPU: Haswell-ULT (haswell era intel integrated GPU)
RAM: Are you kidding? It's soldered in, no upgrades here. 4GB
Storage: Pictured: 250G SSD, not pictured: 512G sdcard

If anyone has any advice for using debian on this era of intel macbook, I'd appreciate it. Currently I can muster about 6 hours of battery life when just using a browser or word processor, thats fine but I'd like to see if I can stretch it to 8 without replacing my battery yet (battery health at 85%)

This is an extremely popular opinion among those who've not unpacked that what you're describing is eugenics

My one complaint in your comment is the "if you're a good artist you'll find work", it's simply not true.

I'm a shit artist (im an untrained outsider slapping paint on surfaces to vaguely resemble what my clients ask for) and I find work, yet none of my friends who are legitimately talented are finding anything.
