ubuntu is the most widely used distro and very simple to setup and gaming out of the box with steam is very simple. Distro end of the day doesn’t matter all that much because you can change them to your hearts content, but for a beginner, you’d probably have the easiest time with an ubuntu distro.

Doesn’t hurt to have virtual box windows on your linux box just so you can easily do some of that other stuff. While I have done fine with libre office for a long time there are definitely problems with formatting so having a windows VM would just solve that issue. Plus teams and w/e.

Epic games will take some serious tweaking, but not impossible.

I’v been using Ubuntu for nearing 20 years now. Maybe like 18ish… It took debian’s rock solidness and made it ez pz. It’s super easy to install and configure and runs like a dream. Has long term stable releases especially important for server architecture. Has the “server” install that is minimal on disk space.

Etc… Just really rock solid distro that I’ve run for decades and has cost me $0 to do so.

I ran red hat till all the cool kids told me it’s got to be Debian and then Ubuntu hit the scene and that was that. I’m sure Arch is fine and I’d bet had I chosen to stick with Red Hat and move to Fedora it’d also be fine. End of the day it’s still Linux.

sadly, I don’t think it’s liberals moving to the state. Cali has a lot of republicans that are looking for a place to be where they can feel superior and literally control women. They get off to this story the folks moving to TX.

That’s a squirrel you idiot

I love gnome Click activities, go to the screen you want, click the program you want… so simple what you are on about man.

shipping is also trucks dude… and all the other nasty ways we move products around the world…

GOP is busy listening to pod casts that’s how they get all their information. They only know how to use their phones so it makes sense that they can’t actually explore the web and open their minds.

Hence letting the religious fruitcakes take over and continue to push wild conspiracy theories and ignore science as their main party platform.

What you are seeing is literally because the people you identify with are mostly fucking idiots. You should be so proud!

How Texas did it: 113 degree temperatures lol

As a representative democracy we are doing it wrong when none of the candidates represent the majority. They represent business and special interests that’s it.

That being said republicans are in the pockets of the most backwards ass religious folks… So that’s is definitely worse when they continue to shit on our constitution for that group.

So sleepy Joe it is.

“moderate” lol

Meanwhile in TX we are hitting record heat indexes after last year hitting “record # of days above 100” and coming off another once a century drought lol

people are so dumb it’s painful to watch. This particular guy seems to be up north. His watchers better prepare because everyone’s moving that way. Entire contitnents are going to start migrating to them sooner than we realize.

There are still some niche subs that didn’t come to lemmy that I engage in, but I spend more time on Lemmy now than I do on reddit. I think there are probably dozens of us like that. So while I might still show “traffic” I’m not spending near as much time as I did on it and since reddit is trying to go public they wont publish that little fact.

Anyone can buy an article, so I expect to see more of these “everything is just hunky dory at reddit” articles because again they have profit motive.

Meanwhile lemmy grows and grows. Hopefully people continue to engage over here to keep it interesting.

you don’t need to do anything in xorg. just run nvidia-settings and you can move the position of the monitors. It should have installed along with the drivers. If not just install it and should be good to go very common for that to happen. You also didn’t tell us what distro. You might need to go into your distro settings and make sure the monitors are configured properly as well. On ubuntu it’ll default to 60hz and you have to change the settings in there to get the full performance from your monitor. You can also change positions of the monitor in that setting space.

yeah same… Water being one of the most important things states will try to protect. I actually sat in on a Texas water board meeting about our aquifers. Their own models didn’t even take into account climate change, but did have a worst case scenario situation where we lost about 10% of the aquifers every decade if droughts persist. So 100 years on their own government sanctioned modeling water board and still we do nothing.

OFC they were assuming business as usual in which case we are fine so by denying climate change and doing nothing they’ve literally doomed the state.

dude South TX is on fucking fire. Heat index of 120f… all time records and still I see people on linked in and wherever arguing about how it’s stupid to try and stop oil usage…

Maddening. It’s the people way up north that aren’t quite feeling it yet… GUESS WHAT WE ARE MOVING NORTH lol.

they are going to be real sad when we start migrating north and trying to pass laws to stop us lol.

America’s army still has a decent amount of people playing. Mostly older folks, but there are tons of community made maps. Give it a try.

games good… I hope the devs come to and allow workshop content. Map makers would go ham on this one and games like this having 100s of maps just add to the longevity.

These areticles are 100% written by big oil. It’s quite literally propaganda. They are going so hard in the paint to try and slow down EV adoption. The IEA predicted we are going to hit peak demand by 2030. I think personally that they are way off and we’ll get there far sooner, but peak demand means terminal decline in oil demand.

It’s the beginning of the end for them and they are scared.

Random people I talk with spout out nonsense about battery fires burning down your house. It’s already getting through to a lot of people.

Hilariously gas is highly combustible and ICE car fires are sooooo freaking common you just never hear about them lol.

game is really fun. Can be frustrating as most online shooters are. Feel like team work really important and when you get into a solid group it really adds to the experience. Hopefully has as many as were playing during the play tests.

lol just looking at that instance and yeah I can get behind that decision
