I'm going to laugh and laugh when the collective Muslim world grinds Israel to the dust one day. I'll probably even get to see it in my lifetime.

Thanks for the extension!

I may give it a shot later. Right now I just spent 4 days getting things set up and to a point where I'm comfortable with it's use. So I may settle down for a bit right now and just learn to use Pop even more. I like it overall, just had a few small annoyances like the desktop shortcut thing. But other than that everything is just working right now, which has not been my historical experience with Linux.

I just want an experience that's as dumbed down GUI-heavy and easy to use as Windows, and so far this is fitting the bill nicely.

I started with Fedora which was a bad time all around. Even their Nobara special release for Nvidia users geared towards gaming was completely unfunctional on my rig.

I'm on Pop!OS which I like. Most things were done easily, however I have a router that does Samba shares on the LAN and it uses Samba V1 which required some extensive configuration on linux to get operable.

They "elected" Hamas. In an election that was never certified, had more votes total than people living there and there hasn't been an election since.

But even if they legit did vote for Hamas I wouldn't blame them. Killing Israelis after all they've done is just.

The Quaran, Torah, and Bible all have passages on killing atheists.

Pop!OS worked out for me in the end.

Linux users can be worse than Jehovah's witnesses or crack dealers when pushing you to try a new OS.

lol... the KDE crowd seems really devoted, and intent on snagging a new convert. I'll give it a shot I'm sure. But I'm definitely saving an image of this just in case.

I'm the same way. I just started using Linux and Landed on Pop!OS. Tumbleweed is high on my short list of things to try, but I finally got everything working, and boy is it working well.

I think the reason is my hardware profile is extremely similar to Pop!OS products, so I just happened to land on something per-optimized for my system out of dumb luck. I'm frankly shocked at how far linux has come. Lutro is what we've been waiting for on game installs for better than 20 years. Steam integration is of course nice, but I hate using game stores and hate being locked into that.

Anyways, been a cool experience so far.

Mixed feelings. And we're still very much so in the beginner phase. I can stand issues with scaling since the fix was to set both to the same and just deal with it for now. That's fine. Getting all my other stuff, games, various devices, all that is much more important right now. Once I know how to do all that and feel familiar with running as much command line as linux demands, then we can move on.

I appreciate the recommendations. So far Pop!OS has been working great for me. It's a great replacement environment, I have all my stuff more or less configured, and am still getting things deployed. Once I'm more familiar with Linux I fully do intend to revisit this and try some other OS's out, but for this moment I'm pretty happy with how things are working.

I got KDE running in safe graphics mode, followed the steps to load the nvidia graphics driver, and the instant I did, black screen lol. I followed the exact same process on Workstation 39 and it worked, so I'm not sure what the issue was.

See, I can't separate the FACT that their religion calls for our death in their 'holy and perfect word from god' called the bible and they follow it still despite that. Their religion also justifies misogyny, slavery, and a myriad of completely immoral things.
