I was mostly being tongue in cheek, but I think it might be possible to launch steam in big picture mode, rendered by Gamescope, from the TUI. No DE required.

Don’t install a GUI and you can just skip this step

You son of a bitch, I’m in.

Except that’s not the case according to the Flight Simulator 2024 FAQ

For any content you purchased outside of the simulator, the Community Folder will continue to work as it did in MSFS 2020. Any content in your MSFS 2020 Community Folder can simply be copied over to the new MSFS 2024 Community Folder, and the vast majority of that content should work in MSFS 2024. For any content you purchased in the Marketplace in MSFS 2020, that content will show up as owned in the Content Manager (in MSFS 2024 called “My Library”) at launch for you to use in MSFS 2024, and the vast majority of that content should work in MSFS 2024. This availability does not require developers to sign off on their content.

Lots of people, often unknowingly. If you run apt install firefox on Ubuntu, you’re getting the snap version.

Using Firefox mobile, everything works and is mostly performance 🤷‍♂️

Right, that’s what I meant when I said “third party app”. Samsung can write an app to do this, but your average app installed from the play store likely cannot.

I’m not super well versed in the world of app development, but I would assume due to the way apps are sandboxed, this isn’t something that could be done with a third party app.

They are for sure talking about the ARM servers from Oracle. You get 24gb of memory and 4 cpu cores that you can carve into virtual machines.

Issue is that the free stock is very limited, and there have been some claims of people having their free service resources reclaimed by Oracle.

Still, if you can get one, it is probably the best you can get for free.

If you need to remember something for the next time you go out, put your shoes somewhere odd. When you go to leave, you’ll remember you moved them, which will remind you why you moved them.

FYI: Flatpaks can share some dependencies and duplicate files.

Yes, but by editing config files 😐

Hopefully the team has smartened up a bit since these days

Oh, for sure. I was responding to the guy saying “I couldn’t figure out the cause, and there was many unnecessary things coming with the OS”

Doesn’t seem like there’s that much extra with Endeavour vs Arch.

Isn’t it just an installer, welcome app, theming, and maybe an Nvidia driver helper?

I don’t think Endeavour really adds that much, but maybe my perception has been wrong this whole time 🤷

Avalonia and Uno Platform if you are working with C#

I personally combine lower end NAS boxes with 4x4 mini PC’s. I like the separation of concerns, as well as the tiny footprint.

Honestly, I enjoy the humorous colour names.

Most people want stability (low change) for servers. Arch is typically run where plentiful software updates are welcome. It’s not that you can’t/shouldn’t use Arch for servers, but it isn’t the most conventional suggestion.

…so?
